Plugin Boutique Releasing Carbon Electra 4 Oscillator Synth

The upcoming Carbon Electra subtractive software synth from Plugin Boutique is designed to emulate vintage analog routing with flexible modulation options and a virus-style sound. Check it out.  

Plugin Boutique are soon to release Carbon Electra- a 4 Oscillator subtractive synthesiser featuring informative displays, editable step sequencer, vocal filter, integrated distortion and analog control. It is based on vintage analogue routing and features flexible modulation options including an editable stepper and note performer. 

Carbon Electra has been developed to not only be a powerful and easy to programme synth, but also to serve as an advanced synthesis learning tool. There are no hidden menus and the plugin includes informative physics based graphic displays with a comprehensive info pane. Best of all, it sounds incredible.

“Amazingly tough, monstrous sound that cuts through anything” - Freemasons

“Powerful and straight forward. That vowel filter is on the money.” - Mike Huckaby
