File Size: 19.2 MBBolt is Nektar’s first foray into the world of virtual instruments.

It employs a new form of synthesis with unique sonic character and intuitive user interface.

Bolt enables a different and fast approach to sound design with an unusually organic and warm sonic character.

Harmonics Synthesis generates and shapes the sound directly in the oscillator: It doesn’t require the dedicated filter section typically found on subtractive synthesizers.

By turning just one knob, a wave’s shape can be changed from dark and subtle to bright and overtone-rich.

Harmonics Synthesis is based on the MSO (multi sine oscillator) concept by Professor Dr.

Udo Zoelzer of Helmut Schmidt University in Hamburg, Germany.

Mr Zoelzer is a scientist with decades of experience in digital signal processing and a passion for audio and synthesis.

Over the last two years, the university and Nektar have collaborated on developing MSO into a full-blown synthesis engine.
