{"product_id":"steinberg-retrologue-2-417292","title":"Retrologue 2","description":"\u003ch3\u003eWhat Steinberg Retrologue 2 Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSteinberg Retrologue 2 is a virtual synthesizer plug-in designed to create modern \"analog\" sounds: deep basses, cutting leads, wide pads, rhythmic sequences, and transition effects. Thanks to its performance-oriented architecture (quick controls, MIDI learn, arpeggiator) and modulation tools, it adapts equally well to electronic productions (EDM, techno, house, synthwave) as well as pop, rock arrangements and sound design for visuals. In the studio, it is used to build expressive and mix-ready patches; live, it facilitates variations (macro controls, mod wheel) and sound movement without complicating your setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMain Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eA versatile virtual analog engine\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sound generation relies on \u003cstrong\u003e3 main oscillators\u003c\/strong\u003e offering several modes (Single, Sync, Cross, XOR, Multi), complemented by a \u003cstrong\u003esub-oscillator\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003enoise generator\u003c\/strong\u003e, and a \u003cstrong\u003ering modulator\u003c\/strong\u003e. This combination allows you to move from a simple and effective sound (punchy mono bass) to more complex timbres (aggressive harmonics, thick textures, metallic or digital sounds) while maintaining a classic synth workflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Multi mode adds width and movement: each oscillator can stack \u003cstrong\u003eup to 8 detunable voices\u003c\/strong\u003e for massive unisons, supersaws, and very dense pads, ideal for cinematic intros, wide choruses, or leads that \"fill\" the spectrum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFilters, saturation, and sound dynamics\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRetrologue 2 offers \u003cstrong\u003e24 filter types\u003c\/strong\u003e including LP, HP, BP, BR, as well as \u003cstrong\u003emorphable\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003easymmetric\u003c\/strong\u003e variants. You can create smooth and organic sweeps or, conversely, more pronounced movements for modern and expressive sounds. To enhance character, the \u003cstrong\u003efilter distortion\u003c\/strong\u003e adds coloration directly in the synthesis chain with 6 types: Tube, Clip, Bit Reduction, Rate, Rate KF, Off. This stage is ideal for adding presence to a bass, thickening a lead, or dirtying a sequence in a controlled way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDetailed modulations, immediate control\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe expressive core of the synth relies on \u003cstrong\u003e3 envelopes\u003c\/strong\u003e (Amp, Filter, Env3) with ADSR or \u003cstrong\u003ebipolar\u003c\/strong\u003e structure, and \u003cstrong\u003evelocity scaling\u003c\/strong\u003e for truly playable patches. For movement, you have \u003cstrong\u003e4 LFOs\u003c\/strong\u003e (2 mono, 2 polyphonic) with waveform selection, shape and phase adjustment, tempo and rhythm synchronization, random start, fade-in, retrigger, and pitch tracking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo connect everything, the \u003cstrong\u003e16-slot modulation matrix\u003c\/strong\u003e allows free assignment of sources and destinations, adjustment of offset\/modulator\/depth, and even \u003cstrong\u003esignal routing via buses\u003c\/strong\u003e. The result: you can design lively sounds (progressive vibrato, animated filter, modulated panning, timbre variations) while keeping a clear and reproducible logic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCreative arpeggiator and controllable sequences\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe integrated arpeggiator covers classic and advanced uses: step modes, chords, up\/down, random, and direct, with \u003cstrong\u003evelocity modes\u003c\/strong\u003e (original, controller, hybrid). The length can go up to \u003cstrong\u003e32 steps\u003c\/strong\u003e, with pitch selection, legato, and step transposition. For precise control from your DAW or controller, \u003cstrong\u003econtroller lanes\u003c\/strong\u003e (MIDI CC 110 to 112) feature a \u003cstrong\u003ededicated modulation path\u003c\/strong\u003e, useful for automating rhythmic and expressive variations throughout the track.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIntegrated effects rack: from raw patch to final sound\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRetrologue 2 includes a \u003cstrong\u003e6-insert serial effects rack\u003c\/strong\u003e to finalize the sound without breaking the creative flow: resonator (14 filter shapes and 3 LFOs), phaser, modulation effects (chorus, flanger, ensemble), delay (stereo\/cross\/ping-pong), reverb with multiband control and chorus, and 4-band EQ with parametric mids plus shelving high-pass and low-pass filters. This is a major asset for quickly obtaining a mix-ready sound, whether thickening a pad, opening the space of a lead, or rhythmically enhancing a sequence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinally, \u003cstrong\u003e8 freely assignable quick controls\u003c\/strong\u003e speed up performance and automation. \u003cstrong\u003eMIDI learn\u003c\/strong\u003e and definable \u003cstrong\u003emodulation wheel ranges\u003c\/strong\u003e allow adapting patch behavior to your playing and gear, both in the studio and on stage. The plug-in supports the \u003cstrong\u003eHALion technology platform\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv
