Dazibao is an incredible synthesizer : create unbelievable sounds, but forget the jacks, matrix and sliders of the modular systems.
A stormy sound is transformed into strings, a flute into its harmonics, the versatility of the instrument is immense!
Define several tone colors of the sound : with few clicks, using colors and graphs, program waveform, filtering, detune and vibrato, pan and volume, space and noise level. With this ergonomic interface it is intuitive and fast to create a tone for the sound.
Then combine these colors in pads, keys, layers or in the sequencer for unique musical features.
With the Pad editor, combine these tones around a circle.
With the Key editor, combine these tones on several time lines : each MIDI note can have its own "sound story" if you need. The software creates automatically the mix between the timelines when you play.
Layer and Mix&Fade editor are similar, but you use velocity, or the joystick to mix the time-lines.
With the Seq editor, arrange these tones to create sequences tuned with the chords that you play on the keyboard and which combine melodic and tone evolutions. Create anything from a classical bass line to a complex musical arrangement, an arpeggiator making tones evolutions or any fantastic polyrhythm.
An MPE mode is also included. Combine your tones using the polyphonic modulation resources specific to this new MIDI mode.
What was complex with a modular system becomes fast and easy to program with Dazibao! You will be surprised to hear how it is easy and fast to create new sounds and complex tones evolution with it!
The sound editor proposes to create a "tone color" :
- 79 waveforms, including organ effects, bells effects, analog like waveforms, keys, FM waveforms, woodwind effects and more...
- create your own waveforms, just drawing them, or using additive or FM synthesis.
- Noise modulation allows you to create hundreds of sound effects that will fit into your patches.
- Low Pass Filter, High Pass Filter and Noise generator : the triangle of saturation and brightness of the editor will help you to control the two filters and the white noise level with one click!! It works perfectly, and it is easy to control.
- detune and vibrato for each one of the two oscillators : control the depth and the speed of the vibrato with only one click!
- pan, "space effect" (short delay) and soft clipping for each voice.
Over 200 patches are included in the Original Sound Bank to demonstrate the powerful capabilities of Dazibao.

Ability to copy lines from one project to another: reuse the tones and sound evolutions you love in a new project.
Includes an internal recorder to record your musical performance. Then drag and drop your audio file to your host sequencer.
Includes a reverb and delay unit.
Create unbelievable and very original patches with Dazibao, but forget jacks, matrix and sliders : just draw your sound!
Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
