Concept 2 is everything you want in a modern synth plugin, beautiful sounds without the complexity of operation found in many other synths.

Your time is valuable, and Krotos wanted to give you access to a rich sound design palette without having to spend time learning how to use it. With Concept 2, you can get lost in the music, not the manual.

Create Unique Sounds Fast

Concept 2 is designed for musicians, producers, composers, sound designers and post-production professionals who want to create sounds fast. Here are just some of the highlights of the benefits of creating sounds with Concept 2.

It’s all about the sound

With tons of great-sounding presets from top artists, including Roni Size, Richard Devine, and Kayla Painter, there’s every chance you’ll find a sound that works right out of the box. Cinematic lush pads, organic soundscapes, stirring strings, killer bass synths, screaming leads and more.

Presets Are Just The Start

Presets are a great starting point, but Concept 2 gives you access to almost limitless routing parameters to shape the sound. Use multiple sound sources, or load your own samples into the granular engine and combine with conventional oscillators.

Sound Manipulation Done Right

Routing and controlling modulation is a breeze in Concept 2, it’s as easy as dragging and dropping the connections; the creative colour coding means you can see modulation sources at a glance.

An Effects Powerhouse

When it comes to effects, Concept 2 is no slouch. With three slots and multiple effects, including; convolution reverb, delay and compressors, you can add even more dimension to your sound design. You can even filter stack and have multiple filters applied to the sound with multiple modulation sources applied.

• Fast, Intuitive Workflow - Designed for musicians and sound designers who want powerful results without a steep learning curve.
• Extensive Preset Library - Includes hundreds of artist-designed presets from creators like Roni Size and Richard Devine, ready to use out of the box.
