Symptohm:Melohman Performer Edition is a streamlined version of Ohm Force's Symptohm:Melohman synth, designed specifically for live performance while remaining useful in studio settings. It retains the powerful audio engine of the original, including its oscillators and filters, but simplifies user interaction by providing up to 1200 pre-programmed patches from Symptohm's extensive sound library. This setup allows musicians to focus on expressive live preset morphing through their MIDI keyboard controllers without the need to adjust complex parameters manually, while still offering full MIDI mapping capabilities for detailed control.

At its core, Symptohm:Melohman features a synthesis engine composed of four oscillators: two sample-based SyncGrain oscillators, a sub oscillator, a noise generator, and a ring modulator derived from the sub oscillator. These sound sources are routed through a mixer into a four-bus filter bank inspired by the Quad Frohmage plug-in, offering a broad palette of sonic textures. Users can load custom samples in place of defaults to further personalize their sound, resulting in everything from lush pads and deep basses to complex drum kits and ambient atmospheres shaped by the player's style and creativity.

Symptohm:Melohman includes advanced features tailored for performance and production, such as smooth preset transitions that create seamless parameter changes, and comprehensive MIDI automation with 14-bit accuracy for precise control. The Auto-Bind feature simplifies MIDI mapping by automatically linking hardware controls to software parameters, while tempo synchronization ensures perfect timing with your projects. Its high-quality DSP engine supports sampling rates up to 384 kHz, and the intuitive graphical interface is optimized for live use with large, responsive controls and group parameter editing, making it a dynamic tool for musicians seeking expressive and detailed sound design.
