Toybox has announced the release of Thump One, describing it as:

An easy to use music synthesiser plugin with a fun glitchy ‘wavetable’ engine and a bank of flexible multi-segment envelopes to shape the sound in any direction you desire. Great for powerful kick drums, club basses and soaring leads.

Toybox Thump One plugin has been designed with Toybox’s modular, ‘west-coast’ approach to circuit layout, with gritty oscillators, subtle cross-modulations and high-quality modelling giving the plugin its unique sound.

The synthesiser features two powerful engines that can be layered together for a variety of complex sounds and textures. The ‘Kick’ engine features a great sounding ‘wavetable’ oscillator, with a set of wavetables created from a selection of clean and processed analog kick drum sounds. The ‘Kick’ engine has a high quality saturation and filtering circuit plus an additional ‘Buzz’ circuit to add a buzzy ‘broken speaker cone’ effect. The second engine, ‘Layer’ uses an accurate model of the ‘supersaw’ oscillator found in the Roland JP8000 synthesiser, this oscillator has a selection of operating ‘modes’ that configure the oscillator to play in intervals and adds various amounts of modulation to create noisy, retro synth sounds, fuzzy glitches or just plain noise.
