Get under the hood
Powerful, yet practical. An easy-to-tweak instrument that helps you find hit sounds in seconds, unleashing its and your maximum potential
Lush 2 isn’t based on just a single machine; it’s built from modules that can be found in many modern virtual synths, combined into one compact, logical layout. Don’t let its looks fool you: though it may look benign at first, its modular, multi-layer architecture takes it beyond simplistic poly-synths to the top shelf of extremely powerful, deeply programmable and devilishly versatile instruments in your arsenal.
Best-in-class effects
Suspiciously accurate sound is achieved only through experience: countless hours were spent analyzing classic analogue synthesizers, and then designing and implementing DSP algorithms with close attention to every component in the signal path not just approximating its overall output. We deliver to you a synth built on oscillators of uncompromising quality, filters with an incredibly natural warmth and character, and best-in-class effects. On top of that, with all of the layers, multi-layer options, and routing capabilities the plugin offers – there’s no end to what you can do with just a single instance of Lush 2
Synthesizer
Lush 2 lets you reach “unheard of” levels of creativity – each layer works as an independent synthesizer with its own polyphony, parameters, enhanced arp, and a choice between 8 of the finest insert effects.
Substantial factory content
Over 1600 presets (all preset types included) curated into a clear, easy-to-navigate structure. A carefully prepared, categorized and tagged bank always lets you find exactly what you’re looking for – from massive basses, to complex sequences, to the toughest-sounding synthetic percussion you’ve ever heard… you’ll find it all here. Huge, inspiring arpeggiator performances covering an unusually broad scope will draw you in from the first key press.
Plus, most of the factory presets make extensive use of the modulation matrix to produce sounds that are much more expressive and flavorful. Made to be a musical instrument first and foremost and therefore the factory presets with playability and personality in mind.
Multilayer architecture
This guarantees Lush 2 has virtually limitless sound design possibilities and unique applications. You can quickly create multi-layer sounds by simply assigning any (or all) of the 8 layers to the same MIDI channel; this can result in anything from subtle chorusing to sonic anarchy!
Assigning layers to different keyboard zones lets you create sophisticated splits, and an entire split-zone preset library exists to get you started. You can also assign different layers to different MIDI channels for 8-part multi-layer usage, and send out up to 11 audio outputs.
VCO with Analog feel
Innovative oscillator algorithms developed by D16 make Lush 2 sound exactly like a sampled hardware analog synth – but without the sampling! There is no aliasing in the oscillators, even at 22kHz from the note’s base frequency. Vibrato and pitch bend don’t compromise the spectral quality of the oscillators, allowing Lush 2 to sound completely authentic even with the most challenging performances.
Plus few several tweaks hidden in drop-down panels giving you yet more possibilities;
Musical filter
Resonance is constant across the entire frequency range, making the filter sound totally authentic, especially when controlled with the envelopes or an LFO. Pushing the resonance to maximum and turning all the oscillators down will produce a pure, pleasant sine wave as the filter is driven into self-oscillation, mirroring its hardware counterparts. Of course, keyboard tracking can also be applied to the filter for a smooth, adjustable cutoff gradient across the keyboard range.
Two insert effects per layer
From subtle to sabotage: choose from 8 customized effect algorithms per insert, per layer, to hone your sound.
Inspiring arpeggiator
A powerful bespoke arpeggiator section with independent presets to get your groove on!
Modulation matrix
An entire page dedicated to assigning your modulation to nearly any parameter – pick a source, pick a destination, set an amount: creative modulation!
Different velocity curves
To define proper velocity response for your MIDI keyboard.
Arp gate and tie
Even the arpeggiator’s MIDI output can be used as a modulation source, allowing for complex sequences and refreshingly odd progressions.
Huge amount of destinations
You can access almost all Layer’s parameters to use in the Modulation Matrix.
Mixer
Lush 2 also comes complete with a powerful built-in mixer, complete with layer-independent parametric equalizers and compressors that can be rearranged. Volume, pan and superb send effects allow you to put the finishing touches on the final output.
Layer’s channel strip
Each layer has a dedicated channel strip in the mixer to make getting the sound you desire a breeze.
Parametric EQ
Having this many layers requires proper mixing … and you need parametric EQ to get it done properly!
Compressor
Each channel strip has its own compressor to provide better control over dynamics for every layer and each send effect.
Three send effects to set the stage – Reverb
A smooth, rich, and spacious reverb to satisfy even the most ardent purists.
Three send effects to set the stage – Delay
A comprehensive delay unit with tempo sync option.
Three send effects to set the stage – Chorus
Warm-sounding double-line chorus.
