The Sounds of the Past, Made for the Future
Vintage Synths, Vol 2 captures the character personality that made the original hardware instruments beloved while providing the flexibility, reliability, and workflow expected by today's producers and composers.
From cinematic scoring and ambient compositions to electronic, synthwave, pop, and experimental productions, Fabric Vintage Synths, Vol 2 delivers an arsenal of inspiring sounds that span decades of synthesis innovation. This unified collection feels unmistakably vintage while behaving like a completely modern creative platform.
Fabric Vintage Synths, Vol 2 is available for MPC Standalone, MPC Desktop, and all major DAWs.
The Sounds of Your Favorite Synthesizer
Fabric Vintage Synths, Vol 2 is powered by the Fabric sound engine, an advanced multi-sample synthesis platform that delivers a consistent UI and modulation architecture, with the following features that make it familiar and flexible for all AIR instrument users.
- Two main multi-sample Oscillators, a virtual analog Sub Oscillator, and a Noise Generator
- Global Filter and Envelope section
- Independent LFO section per Oscillator
This innovative Fabric engine allows these virtual instruments to retain their unique identity while working seamlessly across MPC hardware and desktop DAWs.
Designed for modern production workflows, the stylized front panel page of each Fabric Vintage Synth in this collection offers eight macro controls, four oscillator toggles, and five FX module toggles. This layout puts essential sound-shaping tools right at your fingertips.
Two main oscillators offer categorized selectors, volume, pan, and formant controls, plus octave, coarse, and fine tuning. Pitch randomization and drift bring analog warmth, while sample start offset adds sonic variety. Each oscillator features a dedicated BPM-syncable LFO with eight wave shapes, plus rate, fade-in, depth, and multiple modulation destinations.
Shape noise with volume, pan, filter, decay, and release offset controls. Its dedicated BPM-syncable LFO enables rhythmic modulation, perfect for adding grit or movement to your sound.
Dedicated ADSR amp and filter envelopes include velocity sensitivity and velocity-to-attack time mapping. The filter envelope features bipolar depth control for creative modulation. The instruments also have a dedicated ADSR pitch envelope.
Add rhythmic complexity to your sound with multiple arpeggiator shapes, note order and max note options, swing, and advanced timing controls. Features like momentary arp freeze, repeat, ratchet, octave randomization, and pause make for an organic sound-sculpting experience with each session. The arpeggiator is MPE compatible and supports assignable modulation sources.
Explore and experiment with an extensive library of sounds. Each instrument in Fabric Vintage Synths, Vol 2 comes packed with studio-quality presets covering basses, pads, leads, sequences, and cinematic textures.
All classic synths in the Fabric Vintage Synths Collection, Vol 2 share a common GUI/TUI layout to provide a consistent and familiar user experience. Dive deep into sound design with access to every parameter across oscillators, modulation, envelopes, and effects.
Add body and character to your mixes with Fabric's virtual analog Sub Oscillator offering four selectable wave shapes, volume and pan control, and filter with decay and release offset. It also includes pitch drift, pan key-tracking, and a dedicated BPM-syncable LFO for evolving textures.
A global LFO with eight different LFO shapes and BPM sync allows you to modulate multiple parameters simultaneously. Adjustable rate, fade-in, and depth controls give you more control over modulation intensity and timing.
All Fabric Vintage Synths in this collection (Vol 2) have a fixed FX section that includes five modules with mix controls. The distortion section offers 12 models with depth, filtering, smoothing, and two modulation sources. The delay features BPM-syncable modes (single, dual, cross) with extensive feedback options and a feedback LFO. The reverb section includes 12 models, 16 early reflection models, and controls for pre-delay, time, damp, plus EQ and compression.
Fabric Vintage Synths, Vol 2 instruments are MPE compatible. They are also equipped with assignable mod wheel, aftertouch, expression, and footswitch controls that allow for seamless compatibility with MIDI controllers and other external gear.
All classic synths in the Fabric Vintage Synths Collection share a common GUI/TUI layout to provide a consistent and familiar user experience. Dive deep into sound design with access to every parameter across oscillators, modulation, envelopes, and effects.
