Cobalt is a VSTi software synthesizer inspired by
many of the digital synthesizers from the 1980s.

In the early 80s as digital technology became cheaper,
many manufacturers designed synthesizers that combined
earlier analog technology with newer digital technology.
These were known as hybrid synthesizers. Well-known
hybrid synthesizers are the Korg DW8000 and DW6000,
the Ensoniq ESQ-1, and the Kawai K3.

In analog/digital hybrid synthesizers,the oscillators
responsible for generating waveforms are digital while
the filter section remains analog. This approach freed
designers to use any kind of waveform; they were no
longer restricted to traditional analog waveforms such
as sawtooth, triangle, and pulse. However, by using an
analog filter, these synthesizers retained the warmth
earlier analog synthesizers were known for.

Though Cobalt is a purely digital synthesizer, its
overall architecture is very much like those early
hybrid synthesizers. It features a wide selection
of waveforms,most of which were resynthesized
from actual hybrid synthesizers, while providing
traditional subtractive synthesis capabilities
for sculpting its sound.

Key Features:

- GUI created by grymmjack.
- 26 waveforms - many of which were
resynthesized from 80s hybrid synths.
- Flexible modulation routes.
- Apply PWM to any waveform.
- LFO delay.
- Polyphonic Portamento.
- Key tracked envelopes.
- Rich overdrive effect based on a custom algorithm.
- Stereo delay effect with MIDI synchable delay times.
- Easy to use.

Sanford Sound Design has updated Cobalt to v1.5
2nd November 2009 | Changes:

- Added extensive MIDI Learn capabilities.You can
map any CC message to any parameter either manually
by choosing the CC message from a list or by putting

- Cobalt
into Learn mode and sending it any MIDI CC message.

- Added some smoothing to several parameters to
minimize zippering when manipulating them via MIDI CC.

- GUI code rewritten from scratch
(though the UI doesn't look any different).
