Z3TA Effects Routing


Drag-n-drop Routing

Z3TA+ 2’s effects section features easy routing of all effects and a new, flexible distortion module. The distortion module includes the new Hypertube algorithm and can effect the filter busses, the effects section, or both.

Z3TA Filters


New Filter Types

The Filter section has 4 new filter types bringing the total to 14. Both filters are now readily accessible and visible simultaneously with Separation control for tweaking resonance peaks on stacked filters.

Z3TA Waveshaper Modes


New Waveshaping Modes

Fold: Folds the entire waveform over itself by progressively swapping the left and right halves.
Spectrum: Harmonic levels wander in alternating directions creating a complex phaser-like quality.
Random All: Creates continuously random variations of all harmonic levels.
Random Odd: Only odd harmonic levels are randomized, while even harmonics are progressively suppressed.

Z3TA Modulation Matrix


Enhanced Modulation Matrix

All 16 Waveshapers are now accessible via the Modulation Matrix opening up a huge variety of new sound shaping possibilities.

Z3TA Graphical LFOs


Graphical LFOs

New Graphical LFOs clearly show the resulting LFO shapes when morphing between 2 waves and the new AMOUNT fader quickly scales an LFO’s intensity.

Z3TA Graphical Arp


Graphical Arp

New Graphical Arp provides visual display of Arp patterns, including 100 new patterns and 50 new ‘Gate’ patterns from Dance MIDI Samples. Instantly apply trance gates to synth pads and leads and increase total Arp flexibility and expression with Humanize and Swing controls.

Z3TA Graphical Envelopes


Graphical Envelopes

New Graphically Controlled Envelopes feature an improved design and provide visual representation and realtime feedback of all Envelope Generators.

Z3TA High Resolution


High Resolution

Z3TA+’s legendary sound engine has been improved with a new ‘HIGHEST’ SRC algorithm providing smoother, more accurate interpolation of wavetables. Of course, the sound of original Z3TA+ patches have been faithfully preserved.
