      Relica 2 is a subtractive synthesizer crafted to recreate the sounds of the 8-bit era.

       

      From NES-style leads to the percussions of classic handhelds, Relica 2 puts the golden age of gaming audio right into your DAW.

       

      Features:

      Choose between the four classic oscillator shapes: Square, Sawtooth, Triangle, and Sine.
      Inject grit and digital artifacts using the built-in Bitcrusher, fine-tuned by hand for every oscillator shape.
      Toggle between Antialiasing modes: keep it enabled for a polished sound, or disable it to embrace the raw, aliased grit of original retro hardware.

       

      Change the timbre of your sound with Pulse Width modulation. Unlike most synthesizers, you can change it for all oscilators!
      Use the Preset Browser to try the 30+ factory presets and to save and load your own custom patches.
      Add organic movement with the Vibrato engine, featuring adjustable rates, depths, and multiple LFO shapes.
      Create iconic melodies with the BPM-synced Arpeggiator, transforming chords into the sequences that defined the golden age of gaming.
      A dedicated Noise module allows you to add White, Pink, and Periodic noise to your sound to add imperfections.
      Use the Monophonic mode and Slide (Portamento) control to create smooth transitions between your notes.
      Shape your sound’s envelope with the Dynamics (ADSR) section to create anything from plucks to atmospheric pads.
      The interface is built for ease of use, keeping every parameter on a single screen to ensure a fluid and intuitive creative process.
