Tone2 Electra3 combines a powerful sound engine with a user-friendly interface to provide a comprehensive synthesizer experience for both beginners and advanced users. It features a multilayer architecture allowing up to four independent synthesizers to be used simultaneously within one interface. Each layer operates with its own set of oscillators, filters, modulation options, and arpeggiators, making it possible to create complex and rich sounds. With over 1400 ready-to-use presets crafted by professional sound designers, users can explore a wide sonic palette instantly or dive deep into sound design with extensive editing capabilities.

The synthesizer offers 14 different synthesis methods, ranging from classic virtual analog and FM synthesis to innovative fractal and physical modeling techniques. This broad range allows for mixing and matching synthesis types within layers to achieve unique textures and tones. Each layer includes dual multimode filters with 37 unique types, including analog-modeled filters and digital variations, all featuring real-time visual feedback for intuitive tweaking. The sample engine supports loading and manipulating samples with auto-tuning and looping features, further expanding creative possibilities.

Electra3 is equipped with a rich effects section comprising 32 processors such as reverbs, delays, chorus, phaser, vocoder, and distortion, along with a master effect slot and multiple inserts. Its modulation system includes fast envelopes, BPM-synced LFOs, and step sequencers, all visually represented for ease of use. Each layer also has its own arpeggiator with advanced features like autochords and swing, supporting intricate rhythmic patterns. With low CPU usage, multicore support, and flexible preset management, Electra3 is a powerful production tool that delivers high-quality sound and extensive customization options.
