TubeOhm Vintage
Given its name, it probably won’t come as any great surprise to learn that Vintage is designed to emulate classic old-school hardware synth sounds. It features two complete synth engines, and you’ve got access to the likes of arpeggiators, multi-function envelopes, LFOs and effects.

Sinevibes Frequency and Oscillator
Two plug-ins that Sinevibes believes “will make you completely rethink the definition of the synthesizer,” so no pressure there then. Frequency is a hybrid synth that contains a dual oscillator and waveshape transformer, while Oscillator lets you generate sci-fi effects, glitches and noises from your audio.
