Strobe2 is a powerful software polysynth that combines advanced analogue modeling with an intuitive synthesis workflow to deliver a wide range of sounds. It builds on its predecessor’s signature character with enhancements that include a rich effects section, an improved arpeggiator, and a flexible modulation system. The synth features a single super-oscillator capable of multi-waveform layering, sub-oscillation, noise generation, and hard-sync, all processed through a multimode filter offering 22 different responses. This design provides extensive tonal variety, from warm vintage textures to bold futuristic tones, making it suitable for diverse musical styles.

Strobe2’s modulation capabilities set it apart, featuring the innovative TransMod system that enables direct drawing of modulation shapes on controls for a more intuitive experience than traditional modulation matrices. It supports numerous modulation sources, including polyphonic and unison modulation, enhanced by Euclid and curve processors that create complex rhythmic and dynamic effects. Additionally, full MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) support allows natural, expressive control through compatible controllers such as the ROLI Seaboard. This opens up five-dimensional modulation possibilities, letting musicians shape sounds with unprecedented nuance using gestures like strike, glide, slide, press, and lift.

Designed for both beginners and seasoned sound designers, Strobe2 offers a scalable vector interface optimized for high-resolution displays, making it accessible and visually clear on all screens. With over 900 standard presets and 200 5D presets, users can quickly explore a vast sonic palette or dive into deep sound creation with straightforward programming. Its balance of simplicity and depth has also made it a popular tool for teaching synthesis. Whether crafting classic analog-style patches or pushing the boundaries of modern sound design, Strobe2 provides an inspiring and efficient environment for music production.
