Saurus 3 is a versatile analog modeling/virtual analog Synthesizer plugin with a feature set that covers all aspects of hardware analog synths including a rich sound, punchy envelopes, and more. Version 3 comes with major improvements that makes the whole Saurus experience better again.

Starting with a new big interface that comes in four GUI sizes. There is now the right setting for every monitor. A new patch randomization feature gives you endless new sounds with a press on a button. Always useful in the case if you are out of ideas. Then, you will find a new soft clip in the config section and 192 new sounds from professional designers. This makes in total 1022 included patches.

Further, Tone2 will no longer support the 32-bit version on PC with the introduction of Saurus 3. There is currently no sound demo for version 3.
