First released in 2005 BLUE already reflected Rob Papen's
cutting-edge, creative, and -- most importantly -- musical approach
towards developing virtual instruments by first delivering FM and
subtractive synthesis, then duly adding Phase Distortion and wave
shaping synthesis into the highly creative mix to create one
seriously creative combination. Rob Papen himself called it "Cross-
fusion synthesis" since it covered so much musical ground so
effectively.
Today BLUE-II remains true to that ethos with even more sound
dimensions and features to its extended name, starting with six
oscillators beating at its musically creative heart. These can be
connected in various ways, together with two analogue-style modelled
stereo filters with 27 different filter types, an enormous range of
processing and modulation options, sequencer, and an incredibly
powerful arpeggiator. A new range of specially selected waveforms
based on samples have been meticulously fashioned for creating new
and fresh-sounding synth sounds, so don't go expecting acoustic
pianos galore here. However, since choirs and strings are an
excellent basis for so many synth sounds BLUE-II has them in
abundance -- with much more besides!
Moreover, BLUE-II takes the useful XY pad features from its
popular virtual instrument sibling Blade -- a cutting-edge additive
synthesis powerhouse with a human touch -- and transplants them into
its own equally extraordinary workflowc perfect for time-based
sound movements and vector pad-type sounds. Complemented by four
top-quality FX processors, each offering 35 FX types, BLUE-II is a
phenomenally powerful virtual instrument to behold.
But BLUE-II is also easy to use, thanks to its user-friendly user
interface and an innovative Easy Edit page for speedy sound changes,
while the Bank Manager allows whistle-stop navigation through
thousands of inspirational Rob Papen presets and artist sound banks
covering a wide range of musical styles.
BLUE-II represents an amazing journey into "Cross-fusion
synthesis" and, quite simply, sounds stunning!
