Summary

BIT 2.0 is a virtual synthesizer by Rob Papen focused on analogue modelled synthesis, offering a modular approach without patch cables, advanced oscillator features, and extensive modulation options.

Features

• Analogue modelled synthesis as core principle
• Modular structure using a Modulation Matrix instead of patch cables
• Advanced panel for quick connections like LFO and Envelope to oscillator parameters
• Oscillators include SuperSaw and SuperSquare waves (multiple oscillators inside oscillator 1 and/or 2)
• Phase Modulation, Frequency Modulation, and Ring Modulation where Oscillator 2 can be modulated by Oscillator 1
• Two analogue modelled filters with new modes for enhanced sound shaping
• Arpeggiator/sequencer with dynamic start/end steps and a 'Magic' parameter for musical variation
• Arpeggiator/sequencer can be used as modulator with an additional free modulation row
• Expanded AMP section with multiple distortion options at per-voice level to avoid harsh sounds on chords
• Ribbon Controller for dynamic parameter changes via mouse or external MIDI controller
• Top-quality built-in effects including reverb, without need for external processors

Additional Information

BIT stands for "Back In Time," emphasizing classic analogue synthesis, but also inspires "Be Inspired Today." The product has a price of €99/$99 and is positioned as a refined and flexible analogue-modelled synthesizer within Rob Papen's range.
