Oxid (ARP Omni-2) WiN MAC
50 MB
Have you heard about Oxid yet? this is a new plugin that brings back the iconic ARP Omni-2 from the 70s – but without the crazy price tag or maintenance headaches of actual vintage gear!
I’ve been playing with it for a bit and wow – it really nails that warm, lush ARP sound we all love.You get both the String and Synth sections, and they’ve cranked the polyphony up to 64 voices so you can create these massive, complex soundscapes that would make the original hardware smoke!
What’s really cool is they didn’t just stop at making a perfect copy – they threw in some super useful modern stuff like Phaser and Delay effects.The interface is nice and resizable too (unless you’re using the “N” version for some reason).
It runs on both Windows and Mac, with pretty much every plugin format you’d need. They built it using C++ so it won’t eat up your CPU – always a plus when you’re stacking synths in a project!
• Hardware Simulation – recreates the legendary ARP Omni-2 sound
• Massive 64-Voice Polyphony – Create complex arrangements impossible on the original hardware
• Dual Sound Engine – Features both the iconic String and Synthesizer sections
• Paraphonic Playability – Experience the unique “madness” of paraphonic synthesis
• Enhanced Effects Suite – Modern Phaser and Delay expand the sonic possibilities
• Flexible Interface – Fully resizable UI (except “N” version)
• Complete MIDI Integration – Every parameter controllable via MIDI CC
• Platform Compatibility – Runs on Windows and macOS in both 32-bit and 64-bit
they dropped a small update in August 2024 (version 1.0.1).
