Eventide and Newfangled Audio release new synth Pendulate for FREE

Eventide have announced the release of a new synth from partners Newfangled Audio. Pendulate is a chaotic monosynth based on the physics of a double pendulum.

What initially looks like randomness contains underlying patterns, interconnectedness, constant feedback loops, repetition, self-similarity, fractals, and self-organization. When designing the Pendulate oscillator we took great care to bring out these underlying patterns. The result is an oscillator that can smoothly fade from a sine wave to total chaos, with an expanse of territory to explore in between.

Pendulate’s chaotic oscillator is matched with a wavefolder and low pass gate inspired by the ideas of legendary synthesizer designer, Don Buchla. These three modules—oscillator, wave folder, and gate—combine to make inconceivable sounds that you can’t help but want to hear again.

Every parameter in Pendulate’s three modules can be modulated by an included Envelope Generator, LFO, or MIDI and MPE sources. The innovative modulation interface allows you to easily and quickly patch any combination of sources to any destination—creating sounds that are sure to make you move with them

Novel chaotic oscillator based on the double pendulum makes sounds you’ve never heard before, but will want to hear again
Wavefolder based on the one in the Buchla 259 Complex Waveform Generator, adding MIX and CUTOFF
Low Pass Gate based on the Buchla 292 adds controls for POLES and RESONANCE
Innovative modulation UI allows modulation over every control from the main page, allowing up to 169 simultaneous modulation routings
MPE support allows amazing control from innovative new controllers
Envelope and LFO each have multiple outputs generated at once, like a modular synth should
Modulation! Every mod output to every control means up to 221 modulation points in an intuitive single pane
Animations! The Double Pendulum, Wavefolder, and Low Pass Gate modules each have animations to show how each module responds to your input, and to modulation
Three unique color schemes to customize your look
136 Presets including artist presets from Matt Lange (Producer, DJ) and Matthew Wang (Composer Film/TV).
