Softube has today expanded their Buchla lineup for their Modular Synthesizer plugin. After emulating the Buchla 259e Twisted Waveform Generator, it’s now time for the iconic 296e Spectral Processor. It offers the same feature set as the hardware version like 16 band-pass filters, each with its own VCA and envelope follower.

The Buchla 296e Spectral Processor is a super versatile sound design tool that can be used as a filter, vocoder or as a very deep tone shaping tool.  If you can not afford the 3400€ hardware module, you should definitely check out the Softube version.
