ACE

u-he

ACE is a semi-modular synthesizer plugin that combines classic modular design with modern software flexibility. It features analogue-modeled oscillators, filters, and envelopes with the ability to patch any output into any input, making it both beginner-friendly with default routing and infinitely flexible for sound design. ACE delivers authentic analogue character with sophisticated modulation capabilities across 16 modules.

Key Features

01Semi-modular architecture with default routing and full patching capability
022 VCOs with pulse width modulation, sync, ring modulation, and cross modulation (FM)
032 multimode analogue-style filters with self-oscillation and cascade configuration
042 ADSR envelopes with fall/rise, snap, and singing option for analogue-style retriggering
052 LFOs with 0Hz to 20kHz frequency range (can be used as VCOs)
06Polyphonic (up to 16 voices), duophonic, monophonic, or legato modes with up to 8 voice unison
07Mapping Generator with up to 128 values and drawing tools
083 effects: chorus/phaser (4 types), delay (7 fixed options), bass and treble controls

Things to Try

  • 01Route both filters in cascade and crank resonance on the second filter for aggressive sound
  • 02Use LFO as audio oscillator for FM synthesis by patching into VCO frequency
  • 03Enable singing envelopes for classic analogue retriggering behaviour
  • 04Draw custom waveforms in LFO2 or use Spectralize function to create additive waves
