At the end of the 70s Wolfgang Palm developed wavetable synthesis. This was very successful and used by many synthesizer companies in the 80s and 90s. But this technology has its limitations. The main reason is that all sounds are harmonic. In nature this does not happen very often. Many sounds like a piano string have small offsets from the harmonic frequencies. This is even stronger in sounds like bells or percussion. Infinite overcomes this limitation. The frequencies of the overtones created by Infinite can be totally freely defined. So the sounds it produces are totally free in the frequencies of their overtones. This means that each partial wave can have an arbitrary frequency.
Moreover it is possible to move these overtones independently during the duration of a note.
New system which can synthesize harmonic and inharmonic sounds
Morpher – X/Y controller which morphes 5 user selectable sine resources
Noiser – X/Y controller morphing 3 noise resources and performing modulations on the tonal part
Molder – acts as a digital filter with any amaginable filter sweeps
Two detail editor pages for the Sine resources featuring a 3D display
Import WTS and TCS files from the iPad WaveGenerator and WaveMapper
Import Phonem utterances and use them in the Infinite Molder
Versatile matrix system – allowing 16 sources to control 40 parameters
10 Envelopes, for control of filter sweeps, waveform, noise and many modulations
4 LFOs which can be freely routed via the matrix
Delay/Reverb effect
Overdrive/Distortion effect
A/B compare your edited sounds
