u-he ACE - Any Cable Everywhere | Flexible and Powerful Semi-Modular Software Synthesizer
Break the Boundaries of Audio and Control Signals, Experience the Infinite Creativity of Modular Synthesis at an Affordable Price
u-he ACE (Any Cable Everywhere) is a meticulously designed semi-modular synthesizer, crafted for music producers who yearn to explore the modular world while maintaining a streamlined workflow. It inherits the 'patch bay' philosophy of classic hardware modular synthesizers, allowing users to freely connect any output to any input. Unlike traditional synthesizers that strictly differentiate between audio signals (Audio) and control signals (Control/CV), ACE allows for complete interchangeability, meaning you can use an LFO to generate audio, or use a VCO as a modulation source, creating highly experimental and organic sound designs. Despite ACE's profound sound-shaping capabilities, its clear architecture and streamlined module selection make it an excellent entry-level tool for beginners, while also satisfying the demanding needs of experienced users for virtual analog sounds. The default internal routing (similar to the ARP 2600) allows you to generate sound immediately without patching, but once you start patching, you'll discover its infinite potential. Whether it's thick bass, complex sound effects, or warm pad tones, this software instrument can inject vibrant life into your music production with exceptional value for money.Product Features
- Any Cable Everywhere Design Philosophy: Breaks traditional limitations, no distinction between audio and control signals (CV), any output can be connected to any input, achieving ultimate modulation freedom.
- High-Precision Analog-Modeled Oscillators: Two VCOs simulate the operation of analog circuits, including subtle instabilities and non-linear characteristics, and offer "Circuit Bending" options for more varied timbres.
- Semi-Modular Architecture: Features default internal signal paths for immediate playability without patching, and allows complete override of default paths via patch cables, combining ease of use with depth.
- Powerful Filter System: Two cascaded multimode filters that produce no harsh digital distortion even in overdrive, and support self-oscillation.
- Exclusive Mapping Generator: Provides a customizable list of up to 128 values, usable for drawing waveforms, creating rhythmic patterns, or parameter offsets for each note, far exceeding traditional synthesizers.
- Versatile Multiplex Module: More than just a signal mixer/distributor, clever patching can achieve Ring Modulation (RM), Amplitude Modulation (AM), crossfading, or signal inversion.
- Rich Global Effects: Built-in classic stereo Chorus/Phaser, seven-mode Delay, and high/low-frequency equalizer to add space and thickness to sounds.
- Flexible Envelopes and LFOs: Includes two ADSR envelopes (with Snap and Singing modes) and two LFOs capable of audio-rate modulation, plus a host-syncable Ramp Generator, offering extremely rich dynamic control.
