Each of the 8 operators can independently run any synthesis mode. Mix FM with Wavetable, filter noise through a waveshaper - the combinations are endless.
Classic frequency modulation with sine oscillators. From glassy electric pianos to harsh metallic textures. The foundation of the DX legacy, reimagined.
36 bandlimited waveforms including 12 instrument-specific shapes (Brass, Strings, Clarinet, Cello, E-Piano Tine, Vocal, Supersaw...) with smooth morphing. Import your own wavetables too.
Filtered noise generator with white, pink, and colored noise types. Essential for percussive attacks, breath textures, and atmospheric layers.
State-variable filter with lowpass, highpass, bandpass, and notch modes. Keyboard tracking and resonance for classic subtractive tones.
Nonlinear distortion with multiple shaping curves. Add harmonics, warmth, or destruction to any signal passing through.
Multiply incoming audio with a local oscillator for inharmonic, bell-like tones and aggressive metallic textures.
Don't just pick an algorithm - build your own. FAAS Hybrid features a fully programmable routing editor where you wire operators freely, creating signal paths no preset could anticipate.
Drag and connect 8 operators in any configuration. Route FM into a filter, feed a waveshaper into a ring modulator, stack noise through wavetables. 110 presets (88 FM + 22 hybrid) plus unlimited custom routings.
Morph between complex wavetable shapes in real-time with a live 3D visualization that breathes with the sound. Assign morphing to any mod source - velocity, aftertouch, mod wheel, LFO, sequencer lanes, or even noise - and watch the waveform transform as you play.
16 mod matrix slots connect any source to any destination. Map the sequencer to filter cutoff, aftertouch to waveform position, velocity to operator level. Chain modulations for evolving, organic textures that never repeat.
Every feature is built for deep sound exploration, from quick tweaks to complex multi-timbral performances.
Classic multi-stage envelopes on every operator with keyboard scaling for velocity-sensitive, expressive patches.
16-step sequencer with Pitch, Velocity, Gate, Duration lanes plus 2 assignable modulation lanes. Swing, randomize, and save per preset.
Smoothly morph between operator states in real-time. Assign to mod wheel, aftertouch, or sequencer for hands-on timbral control.
4 independent Parts with split/layer zones. Build complex multi-timbral setups with dedicated volume, pan, and note range per Part.
Per-patch Reverb, Chorus, Tremolo, Stereo Delay with flexible serial/parallel routing. Plus analog tube saturation with 10 valve models (12AX7, EL34, 300B...).
AI-assisted sound creation: pick a category, the wizard loads optimized recipes with the right algorithm, waveforms, and envelopes. Tweak with 12 smart macros, audition with built-in phrases, auto-optimize with genetic algorithm.
With ~3400 parameters, FAAS Hybrid could be overwhelming. The Sound Wizard changes that. It's not just a preset browser - it's an intelligent sound design assistant.
Keys, Pads, Bass, Lead, Bell/Mallet, Organ, Percussion, FX, Sequence. Each with 4 variations using purpose-built algorithms and real instrument waveforms.
Attack, Sustain, Release, Brightness, Warmth, Complexity, Velocity, Feedback, Key Tracking, Vibrato, Speed, Chorus. Strategy-aware: each macro knows whether your sound is FM, subtractive, or hybrid.
A lightweight AI auto-optimizes every recipe after selection. Click "Optimize" for a deeper search. The algorithm evolves your sound toward the ideal spectral profile through natural selection.
Test your sound instantly with Note, Chord, and Arpeggio phrases - no keyboard needed. Phrases adapt to the sound category: bass patterns for bass, chord progressions for pads.
See exactly what's happening: colored operator boxes show the signal flow (oscillator -> filter -> output). Click any operator to change its waveform from 36 options including Brass, Strings, Cello, Flute.
Morph between 4 sub-categories on an XY pad, or blend any two recipes with Cross Morph. Discover sounds at the intersection of categories you'd never think to combine.
A virtual vacuum tube sits in every patch, adding the warmth and harmonic richness of real valve amplification. 10 meticulously modeled valve types, from guitar amps to audiophile hi-fi, each with its own character.
12AX7 - The classic. Warm, smooth, everywhere from Fender amps to studio preamps.
12AT7 - Cleaner, lower gain. Hi-fi pre-amplification.
12AU7 - Ultra-clean, linear. Transparent buffer and driver.
6SN7 - Vintage warmth with exceptional micro-dynamics.
6L6 - The American sound. Fender clean, big bottom end.
EL34 - The British sound. Marshall crunch, midrange aggression.
EL84 - Vox AC30 chime. Early breakup, brilliant character.
6V6 - Fender Deluxe warmth. The blues tone.
KT88 - Powerful and clean. Deep bass, crystal highs. Hi-fi reference.
300B - The holy grail. Liquid, three-dimensional sound. Dominant even harmonics. The gold standard of single-ended audiophile amplification.
Positioned post-mix, pre-effects - just like a real tube preamp. The reverb and delay process the already-warm signal. Each model uses asymmetric soft-clipping with measured harmonic profiles. A visual vacuum tube glows as you turn up the drive.
Your sound design doesn't exist in a vacuum. Share your creations with the world and discover sounds from other FAAS Hybrid users - all from inside the plugin.
Filter by category, sort by popularity or rating, search by name. Find the perfect starting point in a growing library of community-contributed presets.

Rate presets with 1-5 stars. The best sounds rise to the top. Save your favorites locally for offline use. Report inappropriate content to keep the library clean.
Beyond the 88 classic FM routing topologies, FAAS Hybrid includes 22 purpose-built hybrid algorithms designed for mixed-mode synthesis. These aren't just FM variations - they're dedicated signal paths for subtractive, noise-based, ring modulation, and waveshaper synthesis.
Plus a fully programmable Custom algorithm editor for unlimited routing possibilities.
Lightweight and efficient. Runs great on Apple Silicon.
