Digidesign Hybrid - High-Definition Synthesizer

Developed by the Digidesign Advanced Instrument Research group, Hybrid is a high-definition Real Time Audio Suite (RTAS) software synthesizer for Pro Tools M-Powered and other Pro Tools systems that combines the warmth of classic analog waveforms with digital wavetables.

A Tweaker's Delight
Hybrid comes equipped with 256 preset patches that include a full range of analog and digital sounds, but it is made for tweaking. Its deep set of user-adjustable parameters let you create unique sounds easily from a straightforward interface. Construct complex patches from two distinct parts, each of which features three high-definition, sample-accurate oscillators with multiple wave modes, four envelope generators, three LFOs, 23 filter modes with true saturation, and two insert effects.

Performance-Oriented
Whether you use it in the studio or in a live situation, Hybrid is built to be played. Use the step sequencers for arpeggiation or phrase generation. Set the modulation matrix to easily map modulations from sources to destinations. And set up "morph groups" to modify sounds on the fly, from the interface or a MIDI controller.

Built for Pro Tools
Tightly integrated with Pro Tools software, Hybrid is designed for optimal performance and rock-solid reliability. With both a rich set of preset analog and digital sounds and a large array of adjustable parameters, Hybrid gives musicians, arrangers, composers, and sound designers the qualities and character of a unique hardware synthesizer with the convenience and flexibility of an integrated Pro Tools plug-in.
