Original samples and analog effects
Get soulful, gritty hip hop flavor in an intuitive Play Series instrument. SWAY is built on samples from the genre’s distinctive pianos, guitars, synths, and bells, all heavily treated with original, analog gear for a grainy, filtered vibe. Spark an idea with dozens of laid-back, melodic presets and mix things up with hands-on macro controls, a customizable effects chain, and editable sequences.
SWAY was created in collaboration with Emeric Zubar a.k.a. BLAKE.
The main page of the instrument gives you a simple interface designed to help you focus on playing. Quickly tweak sounds using the six assignable macros.
The Sound Editor page lets you modify the individual sound sources (A/B) – giving you access to tuning, filters, panning, and envelopes.
Customize the effects chain of any preset with the Effects Editor. Quickly swap out effects using the dropdown menu, or change the order via drag-and-drop.
Quickly generate ideas with a flexible 16-step sequencer. You can also modulate up to six assignable macros such as filter or distortion.
Edit the assigned macro controls, control parameter ranges, change macro mappings, and create your own custom controls from one dedicated page. The coloured macro dots give you visual feedback on your mappings for maximum ease of use.
Customize the instrument your way from the Settings page. Edit key ranges, adjust velocity curves, and more.
