The Poly-850 is a VSTi / DXi synthesizer plug-in, which started out as an emulation of a vintage synth, but went beyond that by adding a several improvements and new features over the original.

Additionally, automation and a redesigned user interface with direct access to every parameter, make it much more user friendly and accessible, than the original unit.

The concept of the Poly-850 is simple: 2 oscillators, one filter for all voices, 3 envelopes, a modulation generator and a chorus effect.

What makes the Poly-850 special, is the unique sound of the oscillators, and the quality of the chorus effect.

As a result, the Poly-850 is particularly great for warm backing sounds and atmospheric pad sounds, that fit nicely into the background of a mix. However you'll find all kind of other useful sounds in the preset banks as well.

Here are some key features of "Poly850":
Full MIDI and Automation support
Every parameter can be controlled directly via mouse or via MIDI
Velocity sensitive
Polyphony (number of voices) twice as high, and variable
Larger value ranges.
