VISCO 2.0

Hybrid sample‑modeling and synthesis engine

Visco is here: A sample-modeling drum machine

“Visco 2.0 turns the boundary-pushing drum machine into a polysynth – and makes one of last year’s best plugins even more of a must-try”

Music Radar

“…a wild, completely reimagined drum machine. […] There are so many beautiful ideas built in here. Visco sounds great and is very inspiring to use.”

Synth Anatomy

“With this tool, samples can be altered in ways that were previously impractical. It really intrigues me a lot. A Swiss knife for sound design and strongly advised!”

SOR

“It almost feels like you can shape samples with your hands to make new sounds, or mix or morph them with other sounds.”

Gear News

“From the remarkable results of its ability to re-synthesise audio files, […], Visco presents its users with a wonderfully original and experimental approach to drum programming.”

RHYMES WITH DISCO


Visco is a drum machine that enables you to break free from the limitations of recorded audio and transform any sound into something playable and expressive.

Whether you’re blending the timbres of a kick with a snare to see what happens or building a drum kit from field recordings, Visco allows you to explore, tweak, and perform every detail in real time.

Visco 2.0 is out now, and is currently available at a special intro price, only $/€99 instead of $/€139!

HERE COMES THE BLOB


The blob, toolbox & crossfader

Visco is built around the blob: a fluid, hands-on view of your sound in two dimensions. With familiar tools like a hand, magnet, and eraser, plus a crossfader for blending sound sources, you can sculpt audio with the same intuition as moving layers in a design app.

Stretch and shape samples across time and frequency. Merge two sounds into something entirely new. Or simply fine-tune a tone until it fits just right.

TURNS OUT, IT CAN DO BOTH


With version 2, Tonal Mode is now part of Visco.

This mode allows you to play any sound chromatically across the keyboard, transforming Visco into a synthesizer.

Built for producers and sound designers alike, Tonal Mode adds another layer of expression to your workflow without changing the way you work.

Visco Is Now Also a Synth. Free Update Available

EXAMPLES


Don’t just take our word for it. Visco can span a vast array of styles and morph between them in real-time.
