Synthesis from the other side
Atoms is a new kind of synthesizer plugin that uses cutting-edge physical modeling to generate an infinite variety of organic and otherworldly sounds. Use it to create rich, vibrant textures the world has never heard before.

Complex physics in a simple package
Physical modeling simulates the behavior of real-life instruments. But Atoms takes you beyond what is possible in the natural world. Its features are deep enough to explore the boundaries of sound design, yet simple enough that you can easily manipulate, shape, and create with them.

Atoms works by simulating interconnected masses and springs with adjustable properties and dimensions. The model is activated by a virtual bowing action that excites the system, causing it to vibrate and generate sound.

A living organism
Nothing in the natural world is truly static. Physical modeling mimics this by generating sounds with the same organic fluctuations as acoustic instruments.

Atoms goes even further. Its six main parameters can be automated using a selection of powerful movement options to add even more life. This allows you to create soundscapes that constantly change and regenerate, like a natural organism.

If you are used to working with sample libraries, Atoms will bring a new level of otherworldly realism to your tracks.

Program new patches with a click
Atoms comes equipped with a powerful randomization engine. It is a musically calibrated algorithm that selectively adjusts each parameter based on its relationship to the others, offering you usable patches with every roll of the dice.

You can further constrain the algorithm by limiting the random ranges of any control or locking parameters so they do not change.

Finally, the Recycle button is a second randomizer that will create new patches similar to the current patch. Once you have a sound you like, click recycle to explore related options.

Physically modeled effects
The bottom panel offers a range of creative effects to further sculpt your sound. You can also choose from four sonic profiles, each of which offers a different structure for the mass-spring network simulation that powers Atoms.

With the exception of Space (reverb), all effects on the bottom panel are created within the physical model itself. This gives you a range of unique modulation effects that are an inherent part of the physical model and sound more natural than any standalone effects chain would.
