PRO-53 Inspired by the immortal sound of the synthesizer giants of the eighties, Native Instruments created the PRO-53 to cast in software those qualities that have been such a major influence on popular music in the past twenty years: brilliance, power, warmth and beauty. Through Native Instruments' creative development philosophy, these timeless aesthetics have now reached the next step in their evolution. The result is the manifest re-definition of an original that was regarded as unrivalled until now. The PRO-53 is able to import Prophet-5 SysEx sound data, which means it can read and accurately reproduce all the existing sound libraries made for the original. The subtle deviations from perfect behaviour, which are typical of analog circuits and crucial to the sound, can now be fine-tuned.

FM7 Back in the early 80s, the vibrant sounds of FM synthesis shaped much of the musical landscape of the day, and made the DX Synthesizer line one of the most popular series of instruments of all time. These days, the unmistakable sound of FM synthesis is still very much in demand; it complements analog and virtual analog synthesizers perfectly. That's where Native Instrument's FM 7 comes in. The FM 7 includes the complete sound library from the classic FM synths like the DX7, DX7-II, DX11 etc., and reproduces these sounds with mouth-dropping exactitude. But then it takes things a step further, offering distortion and filter operators, extensive modulation capabilities, a comprehensive effects section, audio input and much more, all with an extremely easy-to-follow user interface.

Spektral Delay The NI-SPEKTRAL DELAY is easy to use, with all parameters controlled intuitively and comfortably from a sophisticated graphical user interface. It differs from many other audio effects in that it uses real-time FFT (Fast Fourier Transformation) to split each channel of a stereo signal into as many as 160 separately modifiable frequency bands. The level, delay time and feedback amount for each of these bands can be set separately. Additionally, various modulation effects can be applied to the signal, which allows for even further sound manipulation.
