MICROMEGA

MICROMEGA is a lightweight audio plugin whose purpose is to help you boost the sound with the aid of a virtual analog bass synthesizer. It comes with support for noise generator, envelope, distortion mode, MIDI learning capabilities, mono mode, and random preset generator.

You can deploy the audio plugin on all Windows versions out there and make use of its capabilities, provided that you have a VST host like energyXT or VSTHost installed on the target computer.

MICROMEGA sports a clean design and reveals a well-organized suite of features. You cannot appeal to a help manual to read more about the audio tweaking parameters which means that you are on your own when it comes to discovering how the audio plugin works.

Altering the audio options can be done very quickly thanks to the integrated knobs. Plus, you are offered the freedom to manually input the target number under each audio option in case you do not want to tweak the knobs.

MICROMEGA gives you the possibility to make use of a compact subtractive synthesizer that features support for two VCOs (voltage-controlled oscillator). The first VCO lets you make use of SAW shape, six octave tuning mode, and detune options, while the second one helps you work with SQUARE shape, 48 semi-tune shifted options from the first VCO, as well as phase shift.

The two VCO have in common several parameters, namely mixing mode between the first and second VCO, adjustable harmonic, and noise effect. Last but not least, you can make use of VCF (voltage-controlled filter) that embeds 24dB resonant LPF (low-pass filter), HADRS, velocity, source modulation, and special distortion parameters.

Tests have pointed out that MICROMEGA is responsive and provides very good output results. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the PC is not hampered.

To sum things up, MICROMEGA comes bundled with several handy features for helping you tweak the sound. It is suitable especially for music enthusiasts.
