Rob Papens

Renowned for delivering fresh, cutting edge and musical plugins for producers, Rob Papen invited the DJs to his studio for a brainstorming session resulting in a list of 'must-have' features and tools for a brand new synth. Armed with this list and several more brainstorming sessions later, Rob Papen and his development team created a powerful new virtual synth RAW.

B.I.T. stands for Back In Time…Instead of combining the best of analog modeling with hybrid synthesis, which we can see with the other Rob Papen synthesizers, B.I.T. focuses on Analogue Modelled Synthesis.

The current Rob Papen collection holds synthesizers that contain many features and types of synthesis which sometimes can be daunting to the average user.

Rob Papen virtual plugins are at the cutting edge of contemporary music production! Powerful instruments and FX that bring together innovative design, high-end sound quality, and musical production-grade presets to help make your tracks shine.

When it was first released in 2005 ‘BLUE’ already reflected Rob Papen’s cutting-edge, creative, and — most importantly — musical approach toward developing virtual synthesizers. Rob Papen himself called it ‘Cross-fusion synthesis’ because it covered both Subtractive and FM synthesis in one creative concept. With its successor BLUE-II, the ‘Cross-fusion synthesis’ was also expanded with a creative range of samples and the highly versatile XY pad.

Predator-3 is the successor of a legendary synthesizer. Both versions 1 and 2 have inspired many artists and composers throughout the years and it has made an appearance on countless music tracks! As before, it combines a large library of over 6500 quality presets and cutting-edge features to make this your go-to synth for contemporary music production of any kind.

In the Rob Papen world of synthesis, there was one type of synthesizer missing… A synthesizer that has all of its controls and features available visually all at once. So, the original Go2 was developed, and it instantly became very popular and used by many musicians and composers in their productions. Now it has been upgraded to Go2-X and it has been enhanced with even more useful features and enhancements to what already was the ‘Go To’ synthesizer!

Now, by adding even more drum synthesis models, and introducing a totally new main screen which allows you to quickly create new drum kits, Punch-2 continues its legacy to be a cutting edge drum machine… but with lots of extra added punch!

RAW-Kick offers three individual layers to design and build up your Kick drum sound, which is a common method often used by producers. But now, instead of using three separate products, you can use this method within one product. Each layer offers two modes. You can select a dedicated kick synthesizer model or use a sample-based layer.
