These pristinely produced wavetables provide a virtually endless array of sonic possibilities, plus you can multiply each oscillator up to 9 times across the stereo field, creating some of the fattest sounds ever heard. And Rapture’s high resolution anti-aliasing SFZ-based engine ensures that every note of every voice will be pure and vibrant.

With graphical step sequencing of sound parameters, Rapture provides a modern extension to traditional envelopes and LFOs, allowing you creative control of Pitch, Filters Amplitude and other parameters.
