Volta™
Virtual instrument plug-in for playing and automating modular analog synthesizers and other CV-equipped analog gear

Volta is a virtual instrument plug-in that turns your audio interface into a voltage control interface. Any hardware device with a control voltage (CV) input can be placed under precise digital control from your favorite audio workstation software.

Play and automate analog modulars, synths, filters — even effects processors — via familiar plug-in operation in Digital Performer, Logic Pro, Live, or other Audio Unit hosts. Perform MIDI sequencing with external modular synths with sample-accurate precision. Calibrate and tune oscillators with the click of a button to make oscillator drift a worry of the past.

Use ramp automation in your host audio software to create smooth, precise control changes with any shape imaginable. Apply LFOs, step sequencers and pattern sequencers to CV inputs and effortlessly tempo-sync them to your host software time line.

Whether you’re a seasoned modular synthesizer devotee or simply a computer-based studio owner dreaming of adding that rich, coveted sound only true analog synths can deliver, Volta finally enables you to easily incorporate CV-equipped analog gear into your computer-based studio with all the control, precision and convenience of a virtual instrument.
