TC Electronic is welcoming a new developer to the PowerCore platform. UK-based electronic musical instrument manufacturer Novation has developed V-Station|PowerCore, a multi-timbral virtual synthesizer, built on the company's K-Station. V-Station|PowerCore will be shipping in April at EUR 299 retail ex. VAT/GBP 199 RRP.

V-Station|PowerCore comes with three oscillators providing all the classic waveforms, including a sine wave for sub-bass floor-shaking grooves. Liquid Analog filters, 8-voice polyphony per instance, 6 simultaneous effects per instance and phatt sounds only found in a genuine Novation synth, are some of the features included in the V-Station|PowerCore.

All the primary sound-shaping controls are readily available on the main screen and for serious tweaking there are three additional screens providing a wealth of possibilities. An arpeggiator with programmable speed, synchronization and sweep range is available within each instance, enabling comprehensive synchronization of time-based effects.

PowerCore is the open platform DSP engine for professional signal processing for Mac and PC. Its serious processing power seamlessly integrates with any Audio Units- or VST-compatible host application. PowerCore includes ten world-class quality TC plug-ins right out of the box. Optional plug-ins are available from TC and a growing number of respected 3rd-party developers such as Access, Sony, Novation, TC-Helicon, Waldorf and D-Sound. PowerCore is available as a PCI card or external FireWire unit.
