Spectra is a powerful digital additive resynthesiser built exclusively for the Reason platform. Spectra’s ability to analyse and resynthesise any periodic, harmonic waveform via its inbuilt spectral waveform analyser means you may never exhaust Spectra’s sound creation possibilities. If you have ever wanted to sculpt sound by drawing your harmonic spectrum, waveform or drawing a spectral filter response then Spectra may be what you’ve been waiting for.

Please note that Spectra is only available for Reason 9.2+ owners.

Each voice in Spectra’s synthesis engine utilises two spectral generators giving you complete control over the harmonic structure of your sound. The built in and user definable spectrum modulators ensure you can control multiple harmonics, single harmonics, morph 2 spectra, sequence spectral morphing, morph filters, sequence filter morphing all via automation.

Spectra’s waveform analyser ensures you will never be without sonic options, enabling you to analyse internal and/or external sound sources, draw your own waveforms and store harmonic spectra from any periodic source.

Spectra’s editor enables you to draw your own harmonic spectrum, draw your own filter responses and develop your own filter and spectrum morphing sequences with ease.

Spectra has a plethora of built in modulators enabling you to sculpt sound in almost any way conceivable. Spectra’s 2 harmonic envelopes each contain 256 DADSR envelopes enabling you to shape, sculpt or contour sound spectrums beyond you imagination while the 3 sixteen stage MSEG’s provide additional modulation options. Spectra’s 2 LFOs enable you to draw your own LFO Shapes and also include Sample and Hold functionality.

Additive Synthesis used to be hard. Not anymore. Spectra enables you to program complex additive patches with relative ease. Spectra’s design is based on the principle it should be as easy or as complex as the user wants it to be. This is also supported by our basic philosophy that synthesisers should be fun, no matter how you define fun.
