The Martinic AX73 is a powerful 80s analog synth reborn as a plugin compatible with AAX, AU, CLAP, VST2, and VST3 formats. It faithfully captures the essence of the original hardware while introducing modern enhancements. Featuring four analog oscillators spread across two synth layers, the AX73 delivers rich and dynamic sounds with ease. This plugin benefits from Advanced Circuitry Emulation (ACE) technology to ensure authentic analog tone without the need for complex menu navigation. With 600 inspiring presets included, users can quickly explore a wide palette of sounds perfect for various music styles.
Designed for intuitive workflow, the AX73 offers two distinct interface modes. The Settings View presents a streamlined parameter set for quick adjustments, while the Keys View replicates the original synth's look but expands on its functionality with enhanced controls, eliminating the need for menu diving. A robust Preset Manager helps organize and share favorite presets effortlessly. The plugin also features an extensive eight-module effects section including Compressor, Phaser, Flanger, Chorus, Delay, Reverb, Distortion, and EQ. These effects can be freely reordered within the signal chain using drag-and-drop, allowing for creative sound shaping.
Taking inspiration from other synths in the AX range, the AX73 integrates additional features such as extra chorus settings, a second VCO, sub-oscillator, and an extended VCO octave range down to 32'. Enhanced modulation capabilities include four envelopes and four assignable LFOs per layer, totaling eight of each across both layers. Users can split or stack layers for complex sound design, with each layer equipped with its own arpeggiator offering 11 unique modes including Shuffle and Improv. This combination of classic analog character and modern flexibility makes the AX73 a standout instrument for both studio production and live performance.
