Powerful LoFi Processor
A built-in dedicated LoFi processor offers 6 unique processing modes and 6 detailed shaping parameters. From subtle tape flutter to extreme signal degradation, a simple turn of a knob adds the perfect amount of grit and nostalgic atmosphere to your tones.

Perfect Fusion of Acoustic and Synthetic
It combines multi-sampled real instruments, a flexible digital oscillator, and a dedicated noise layer. This provides an open canvas for Lo-Fi sound design, allowing you to freely mix and stack elements to create unprecedented unique tones.

Comprehensive Lo-Fi Sound Design
Add digital grit with the engine's integrated hardware modes, introduce warmth or wear with the LoFi processor, and then wrap it all in field recordings or ambient noise. Pure LoFi makes every sound you create feel aged, full of story and character.
