GForce MAP – Navigate the unknown
Born from the lineage of modular synthesis, MAP reimagines the fearless experimental spirit of the 1970s for today’s creators. Blending vintage character with modern innovation, MAP is a sound design playground for artists who see synthesis not as programming, but as exploration.

At its core, MAP features three powerful oscillators, a dual-filter architecture, and a deep modulation system with MPE support. Every sound invites hands-on discovery—from shimmering tones and gritty textures to sprawling ambient soundscapes.

MAP’s expressive XY Pad macros, drawable LFOs, and generative polyphonic arpeggiator make sound design immediate and performative. Meanwhile, custom Colour, Time, and Space effects act as integral parts of the instrument—shaping tone, rhythm, and depth with character and flair.
Rooted in modular experimentation yet built for the modern studio, MAP transforms synthesis into a voyage of imagination.

OB-EZ takes the massive power of the OB-E synth and puts it into a focused interface designed for fast workflow. It’s perfect for browsing curated presets and then using its streamlined controls to tweak them to fit your song.

In this article, I’ll show you how to create a synthwave track using only OB-EZ. We’ll take four factory presets and edit them to create a retro-inspired sound perfect for synthwave.

AXXESS is based on the ARP Axxe, a compact, budget version of the more famous ARP Odyssey. These budget synths often ended up in the hands of artists making rawer, more experimental music, and the plugin version captures the original’s character with additional features like polyphony and built-in effects such as distortion, delay, and reverb, making it great for noisy, left-field sounds.

In this article, I’ll walk you through how I made a lo-fi, trip-hop track using only AXXESS. We’ll start with a handful of factory sounds, then tweak and layer them together into a woozy, Boards of Canada–style groove.
