Overview

A powerful sampling and synthesis workstation.
In a world full of virtual instruments, BioTek was designed from the ground up to be different.Not only is the engine more powerful than existing products, but the choice to use natural and environmental samples gives this instrument a unique personality.The user interface is designed to provide quick access to inspiration parameters via macro controls on the main “Wild” page, while also providing access to a deep editing environment.Extensive modulation and modifier routes are intuitively assigned, and all parameters are DAW automation compatible. Dive into the weird and wonderful immersive world of BioTek.

Spinal Saw Oscillator

The unique 'Spinal Saw' oscillator allows up to 1 detuned sawtooth waves in one oscillator. BioTek has four oscillators per voice, so there are a total of 11 sawtooths in one sound layer, and unlimited sound layers in one patch.Perfect for creating thick leads, huge pads, and rumbling synth basses.

granular oscillator

The BioTek 2 Granular Oscillator takes sound particles from your favorite samples and redistributes them into dense clouds, scattered drops, or anything in between.This allows you to create everything from uniquely textured instruments to otherworldly soundscapes.The oscillator itself provides a convenient visual reference of how the grain relates to the source sample, showing the relationship between playback position and pitch. The BioTek 2 Granular Oscillator brings a storm of synthesis to an already powerful engine.

deep parameter control

BioTek's unlimited engine can scale to literally tens of thousands of parameters, so workflow management is key.Build your own instruments quickly with an intuitive system for importing your own samples and promoting parameters to the main 'Wild' macro page.The customizable 'Wild' page macro controls are instantly accessible from your DAW automation, and in version 2 you can now also access the full parameter list from the Deep Edit page.You have unprecedented control over sound-shaping tools for all your instruments.

surgical precision

No synthesizer would be complete without a comprehensive filtering and effects section. BioTek has both - 9 high-quality effects can be loaded into 4 effect slots per voice for creative sound shaping.Filtering is also very flexible, with BioTek 2 allowing you to choose from a number of types including transistor ladder and Sallen key.

creative horsepower

BioTek features four oscillators in one sound layer: FM synthesis, virtual analog, sample playback, Karplus-Strong, and granular and unique Spinal Saw.With unlimited sound layers per patch, you can create expressive instruments from simple to highly complex.

breath of life

BioTek takes modulation to the next level – with 200 modulation routes and 32 modifier routes that perform mathematical functions on your modulation sources.It also features 8 unique Flow LFOs, with 8 parallel syncable sub-LFOs for each sound layer.With so many routings available, it's possible to program "life" and organic randomness into your sound.

instant control

BioTek's signature “Wild” macro page allows you to explore each sound patch in incredible depth and quickly.A stunning central XY control can be assigned to numerous sound-shaping parameters for instant, sometimes radical manipulation.The unique “Flow LFO” dynamically changes modulation assignments.Each patch is individually designed to put the most interesting sound-shaping tools at your fingertips, and you can dive deep into the editing pages to fully customize your sound.

About sound

Not all instruments are the same! BioTek's codebase was expertly crafted by industry veteran Wolfram Franke. Wolfram Franke has honed his craft by designing numerous Waldorf Music instruments, respected for their exceptional depth of sound.Led by Tao Yamada and recently joined by electronic experimental guru Richard Devine, the factory patch list has expanded to over 500 creative sound experiments.

Biotek sample library

To separate BioTek from the status quo, an entirely new collection of audio samples was needed.Introducing composer and engineer Mike Wall.

BioTek's natural and environmental sounds are samples from Mike's 20-year collection of field recordings in Washington, Oregon, California, North Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado, Arizona, and Hawaii.For industrial sounds, Mike recorded on location at several manufacturing facilities near Seattle.The microphones achieved extremely high resolution and low noise by utilizing a variety of stereo microphones, hydrophone rigs, and digital recorders customized for the intense on-site environment.The samples were carefully looped and mastered for Acktion Engine™.
