U-he Diva (MAC)

Advanced modeling for undeniably analog tone

Under the hood, u-he’s Diva synth plug-in employs advanced modeling based on industrial circuit simulators to re-create the character of beloved analog synths and filters. At its highest sound quality settings, the Diva plug-in is CPU-intensive, and you’ll hear the difference. Take the filters, for instance: synth fans at Sweetwater know that it’s rare to hear a digital filter that can rival an all-analog filter. But u-he’s zero-delay feedback filters rival the sound of some of the most revered analog filter designs. Just automate a long, slow filter sweep in your DAW, and you’ll hear the richness and depth that you would normally only expect from an analog filter, free of any stair-stepping artifacts or aliasing.

Mix and match oscillator and filter modules

With five different oscillator modules and five different filter modules (plus an additional HPF/Feedback section with four module choices), there are a lot of possible sonic combinations to explore with Diva. You can re-create classic synth designs or dial in your own ideal synth.

Trimmers section lets you dial in the perfect amount of analog instability

When you really want the maximum amount of analog character in your sound, turn to the Trimmers section in u-he’s Diva synth plug-in. This section not only lets you detune voices, but it also allows you to add some “slop” to filter cutoff, envelope times, pulse widths, and glide times. Many analog-modeled synthesizers give you control over a certain amount of analog drift, but with nowhere near the variety of Diva’s Trimmers section.
