Key Features
The Synapse Audio Hydra Synthesizer is a versatile multi-model synthesizer offering a wide range of sounds. With three different routing models and three oscillators, the Hydra offers endless sonic possibilities.
The three oscillator routing models allow for a wide range of sounds, whether you prefer phase modulation or ring modulation. Each model has its own distinct character and capabilities, giving you the flexibility to create unique and original sounds. Two of the oscillators have 39 preset waveforms and can be individually saturated, adding even more depth to your sounds. The envelopes can also be switched to percussive mode, transforming the Hydra into a powerful drum synthesizer. The user interface is logically organized, making it easy to navigate the extensive range of parameters.
In addition to its impressive synthesis capabilities, the Hydra comes with built-in effects to further enhance your sound. These include a chorus/delay effect with tempo sync, a bass expansion unit for solid sub basses, and a roaring distortion effect. To get you started, the Hydra includes a library of 128 presets, ranging from house/club style organs to bells, basses, leads, and pads.

The Hydra Synthesizer is a versatile plugin that offers a range of features to enhance your music production. With three different routing models and three oscillators, you have the ability to create unique and dynamic sounds. Each routing model combines the oscillators in different ways, allowing for phase modulation and ring modulation. This opens up a world of possibilities and gives you three distinct synthesizers in one.
With the Hydra Synthesizer, sound design becomes a breeze. The logical organization of the user interface ensures that you can easily navigate the high number of parameters and maintain a good overview. This means you can focus on designing your own original sounds without the confusion of a cluttered interface. The synthesizer offers two of the three oscillators with 39 preset waveforms, giving you additional flexibility in shaping your sound. Additionally, you can individually saturate each oscillator for added warmth and character.
One of the standout features of the Hydra Synthesizer is its percussive envelopes mode. By switching the envelopes to this mode, the synthesizer transforms into a powerful drum sound synthesizer. This opens up a new dimension of creativity, allowing you to create unique and dynamic drum sounds that will give your tracks a distinctive edge. With the Hydra Synthesizer, you'll have all the tools you need to produce professional-quality drum sounds.
To further enhance your sound, the Hydra Synthesizer comes equipped with a range of built-in effects. These include a chorus/delay effect with tempo sync option, allowing you to add depth and dimension to your sounds while keeping everything in time. Additionally, there is a bass expansion unit that provides solid sub-basses with stereo spread, giving your tracks a rich and full low-end. Finally, the roaring distortion effect adds grit and edge to your sound, perfect for creating powerful leads and gritty textures.
If you're looking for instant inspiration, the Hydra Synthesizer comes with a library of 128 presets. These presets cover a wide range of styles and genres, including house/club-style organs, bells and percussions, basses, subtle ambient atmospheres, powerful leads, and rich stereo pads.
