In 2002 Rob Papen approached Peter Linsener of LinPlug with the idea of
a sound-designers dream synth.
A few months later ALBINO was born! This very unique synth stole the
hearts of many musicians due to it's high quality sound, usability and
inspirational presets.

Now, just when you thought things couldn't get any better... Albino 3
arrives!
There are loads of amazing new creative features added like the two new
filters "Scream" and "Comb"; four FX units with new FX like LoFi and
WahWah; a Compressor and an improved Reverb.
But the biggest new feature is that you can layer up to four instances
of Albino in one single preset!

Albino 3 has more than 2100 'Rob Papen' presets in various styles of
music plus two banks by the very talented REYN (Famous Dutch producer),
Noisia (Dutch DnB) and NarvanaX (Dutch Hardcore).


Key features Albino3:

* VST2.0, AU and RTAS plug-in synthesizer for PC and Mac (IntelMac)
* Sound Presets consist of 4 separate Layers for rich, complex sound
synthesis.
* 32 note polyphonic (CPU dependent)
* Unlimited sound programs, Sound Browser
* +2100 Rob Papen presets and more
* 4 oscillators per Layer, 4 types. Oscillator modules include
Analog-type, Digital-type, Noise-type and Audio Input-type. FM
modulation and AM modulation. Oscillator Sync in Analog Oscillator
2 and 4.
* Stereo Filters, 4 types. Filter modules include Silk-type, Cream-type,
Scream-type and Comb-type. 3 multimode filters (Silk, Cream and
Scream), each with a different basic design thus producing different
sounding filters. Filters are stereo with panning and panning
modulation options.
* Saturation knob precedes each filter to add overdrive to the sound
before it enters the filter. Four types of Saturation are available.
* 8 envelopes, 2 types. ADSFR type and 5-stage envelope type with loop
function. Each envelope stage has separate slope/curve settings. Each
oscillator has its own volume envelope.
* 4 LFOs with various waveforms and midi-syncable. LFO Waves have
adjustable start-phase and waveform-symmetry. LFOs can also be set
to mono mode.
* Modulation Matrix which includes 16 routings with 27 sources and 36
destinations. Separate control section for Velocity to: AMP, Filter
1 and Filter 2.
* Arpeggiator with 32 step rhythm sequencer, step length, clock settings,
various modes including modulation and chord, switchable keyboard
retrigger, swing, velocity mix, save/load functionality.
* Spread function for each Oscillator for ultra fat detuned sounds.
* Chord memory mode (saved with the preset)
* 4 effects units per layer each containing 12 stereo effects including
two Choruses, two Delays, Filter, Phaser, Reverb, Flanger, Gator, Wah
Wah, Compressor and LoFi.
* Mono/Polyphonic Portamento/Glide featuring Fingered mode, switchable
constant Time/constant Rate and Auto-Bend Modes
* Sound programs are stored directly on hard disk so providing a
virtually unlimited number of storage locations. Sounds are sorted
into style-maps for easy search. Integrated Sound Browser, MIDI program
change and bank change supported.
* Adjustable Precision setting for recreating the warmth of true analog
synthesizers
* Gen (randomize) function for experimentation and preset fun
* Microtonal support (Scala file import) for different scales (Indian,
Arabic, etc.)
* Adjustable keyboard velocity response curve.
* 32-voice polyphony
* Adjustable voice limit (mono, 1...12, oo).
* MIDI activity display (also triggers a C3 when clicked)
* Several parameters are located on the "rear panel" so they are not
changed accidentally during use.
* Controller hardware (faderbox or synth) settings can be saved and
restored.
* Dial operation is switchable between circular and linear modes


Albino v3.0.2 changes:

* fixed problem when loading Albino 2 presets with Triangle osc wavefoms
* fixed flickering preset name when loading presets
* fixed Cubase 4 incompatibility
* fixed problem when randomizer changed effects only visually
* fixed problem of certain matrix modulations not working
* all delays are now optimized for smooth behaviour on tempo changes
* fixed different filter sound of version 3.0.1
* 63 new Rob Papen presets
