Triplex Snapper is a percussive synthesizer plugin made especially to produce sounds like snare drums, wooden blocks, metal plates, hihats, crashes and all the in-betweens, while using the same crunchy, yet punchy retro FM synthesizer engine known from Triplex Classic and Triplex Kicker.
The 6 macro controls have been set up in a way to easily morph between different shapes and materials:
- With "surface" you control the stiffness of the material.
- "Detune" lets you tune the second drumhead/cymbal against the fundamental.
- And with "blend" you can mix between the pure drumhead sound and the drum wire or cymbal sounds.
The envelope can then be manipulated with the attack, combined decay/release and sustain controls. To top it off you can of course bend the drum in impossible ways with the integrated LFO.
KNOWN ISSUES:
As of right now the standalone app does not support incoming Midi. Please use TriplexSnapper hosted as an AUv3 plugin.
