1.2Here and Now

Analog Factory 2.5 brings you the full spectrum of sounds from all of the above instruments in an easy to use, no-hassle interface. As you will soon see in exploring the instrument yourself, a single instrument gives you your pick from the most complete synthesis sound palette one could ask for: the great bass of the Moog Modular, the brass and strings of the Prophet, the pads and FX of the ARP 2600, etc.

If you have never played a real synth, or even if you don’t know what a synthesizer is, it doesn't matter; you will be glad to have invested in such a powerful instrument once you hear the difference Analog Factory 2.5 makes in your studio.

1.3TAE®

TAE®, True Analog Emulation, is Arturia's outstanding technology dedicated to the digital reproduction of analog circuits used in vintage synthesizers.

When implemented in software code, TAE®’s algorithms guarantee authentic emulation of hardware specifications. This is why Analog Factory 2.5, and all of Arturia’s virtual synthesizers, offer an unparalleled quality of sound.

TAE® combines three major advances in the domain of synthesis:

1.3.1 Aliasing-free oscillators

Standard digital synthesizers produce aliasing in high frequencies, and also when using Pulse Width Modulation or FM.

TAE® allows the production of totally aliasing-free oscillators in all contexts (PWM, FM…), and at no extra CPU cost.
