I've always said the U-he software is in a category or level of it's own. When I bought Zebra back in the day I literally sold several hardware synths because I felt Zebra just made them redundant. When I started to actually understand the complexity and depth in so many U-he plugins I began to realise the level of thought and detail that has gone into them. Something I don't experience very often in other software. And Urs has got to be one of the coolest, friendliest dudes in the game.

As someone who already had Falcon, Omnisphere, Serum, NI Komplete CE, Atruria whatever, I was very late to the U-he world as I didn’t think I needed anything else. Turns out I was completely wrong. Saw Zebra Legacy (Zebra 2/HZ and a load of packs) was basically the cost of a decent night out and thought - yeah I’ll try this out. It’s now pretty much all I use, and wished I’d paid more for it as it deserves it. Then bought Diva and loads of Luftrum and Unfinished packs. Can’t wait for Zebra 3. It’s great Zebralette is free, but hopefully anyone who tries it out actually buys the full version as Urs and the team deserves it. Excellent stuff!

I’m sure your brain is fine! It’s the customisation and control that’s the winner here. It’s also not just for building oscillators, it’s for controlling anything in the signal chain. Think of massive dubstep wobble bass times a lot. Being able to express this much control (or lack of control) can take your sound design into new areas very quickly.

This is an early demo of just one aspect of a workhorse synth. Urs has unified the waveform editing and envelope/modulation curve editing, and as for new modulation methods, new effects, new ways of building a semi-modular patch, all that is yet to be designed and the final Zebra 3 reveal seems a far distance away to me. years.

The difference between this and most (but not all) wavetable synths is that here, the source is based on bezier paths - while most other synths have sample based wavetables. Think of it as the difference between bitmap graphics and vector graphics or Photoshop and Illustrator. Both have pros and cons. The main pro of the vector based approach is that it's suited for effortless morphing between two completely different shapes. One of the cons is for instance that we can't do pieces of noise within the waveform, and resynthesis might be tricky as well. OTOH Hive does sample based wavetables, and we will add sample based wavetables to Zebra as well, it's just not anything we need this editor for, and thus we didn't show or mention this.

But it is fundamentally different from the system based on splines I'm showing here. There's a lot that Vital can do that Zebra can't, and vice versa.
