Xils Lab 为其 EMS VCS3 模拟器 VCS4 发布了一个重要的更新，这个免费的更新带来了新的高分辨率界面以及 M1 支持等。

EMS VCS3 是一款传奇的矩阵模拟合成器。它是由 Peter Zinovieff 开发，在实验音乐领域，它仍然是最受欢迎的合成器之一。它非常受欢迎，以至于不久的将来会有一个价格合理的复刻。

该合成器也多次被软件复刻。其中最受欢迎的是 XILS Lab 的产品。随着 XILS 4 的推出，开发者将整个概念进一步推进。它模拟了一个从未发布的原型，基本上是一个增强版的 EMS VCS3。两个 VCS3 核心加上一个 256 步模拟风格复音音序器。好消息是：在 1.6 版免费更新中，这个插件更漂亮、更清晰了。

XILS 4: Ultimate Analog Matrix Modular Synthesizer. The XILS 4 emulates a prototype that was never released, the EMS VCS4, based on two integrated, interlinked and interacting VCS 3 (Synthi) cores. We also coupled them with the famous 256 analog poly-sequencer.

Like the 2nd huge Pin Matrix, and its numerous additional modules: Envelopes, LFOs, S&H, Voltage Processor, Pitch Tracker, Transient etc. Or the recreation of the unique, powerful 256 analog Poly-sequencer, intimately tied to the synthesis engines. Add to that the analog Chorus (3 modes) Delay and Phaser, the Spring Reverb, and the picture emerges.

In the XILS 4, you can connect everything with everything, and you get more than 1140 possible different connexions per patch. Did we say at Audio Rate ?An endless source of inspiration for those who want to go deep into the heart of Analog Modular Synthesis.

It’s impossible to summarize what the XILS 4 can do, but, in short, here’s the list of the main modules

12 Aliasing free Oscillators, grouped in 6 pairs, with WaveShaping, 3*2 Hard synchronization modes, + 2 additional Noise oscillators.
2 Analog Multimode Filters, Non Linear and zero delay behaviors, with 3 Modes (12/18/24 dB).
4 Trapezoidal, looping, Envelope Generators. (Switchable to standard ADSR).
5 Polyphonic LFOs (including 4 Oscillator acting as LFO at audio rate).
Polyphonic Ring Modulator and VCA engine.
Cascade Mode: Synthesizer 1 can feed Synth 2 engine inputs.
4 independent outputs feeding the Stereo Bus, each with one analog LP/HP filter.
2 Programmable Joystick Vector Controllers (up to 32+32 modulation targets).
Polyphonic Sequencer with 3 independent lines, Slew rates, 3 recording modes.
Sequencer can behave as modulation source.
Pitch Tracker, Envelope Follower, Transient, Gate, Sample & Hold Modules.
Chorus, Delay, Phaser, Spring Reverb.
6 Play modes (including Unison 2/4/6), Polyphonic and mono Portamento/Glissando/Legato, 2 different Keyboard Scaling, Polyphonic Aftertouch and VCA handling.
Nearly 700 presets made by worldwide famous Sound Designers.
Preset Database Engine (Find the right patch in a flash, create your own tags).
Comprehensive manual with a getting started and tutorial sections.
More than 100 parameters mappable to MIDI controllers.
More than 1100 possible connexions per patch…
