Unfold their pure sound and benefit from the authenticity these acoustic treasures provide you at your fingertips. Compose using our beautifully matching dream couples or utilize the uniqueness of each solo instrument to complement your overall sound.

Refine your sound

Designed with a focus on user-friendliness to facilitate an expedient workflow, the Origins Bundle is an excellent solution in the quest for authentic, fresh and captivating musical experiences.

Includes full customization options that will help you keep an expedient workflow as well as achieve truly unique results.

You can play all instruments independently or in beautiful concord via the build-in Multi-Arpeggio-Designer (MAD). Choose from numerous tasteful patterns and presets that will kickstart your own creative journey with the instrument and drive your inspiration forward. Also, create your own arpeggios and exchange them within the whole, completely modular Origins Series.

Multi-arpeggio designer

The multi-arpeggio-designer is the centrepiece of every Origins instrument. Two fully customizable arpeggiators create interlocking patterns and broad soundscapes by combining the unique timbres of the two instruments. The engine is designed to convey a musically meaningful, human performance, instead of a computer randomly aligning notes. Load up one of 80+ inspiring presets or create your own arpeggios in as much detail as you like. The MAD provides a variety of different features and controls to realize your musical vision.

Created your own ingenious arpeggio design and want to use it with another Origins product? Simply copy and paste your design to use it on the fly in any other instrument of the Origins series.

Colours menu

The 12 individual colour presets provide even more possibilities to sculpt your sound. All colours are radically different in character and incorporate various effect settings and multiple impulse responses. While each MAD-Preset has an assigned colour, you can combine everything at will, resulting in over 1200 predefined combinations.
