Current

Minimal Audio

Where to get itAvailable from Minimal Audiominimal.audio

Current is a next-generation virtual instrument combining wavetable synthesis, granular sampling, additive sub-synthesis, and time-stretching capabilities with dual multi-mode filters and a flexible effects rack. Designed as both a DAW plugin and standalone application, it excels at creating everything from cinematic textures to aggressive bass and evolving soundscapes, with deep modulation possibilities and an integrated cloud-connected sound library called Stream.

Written from the manual and checked against it. How we check

Key Features

01Two high-fidelity wavetable oscillators with spectral processing and alias-free reproduction
02Additive sub oscillator with sine wave partials for precise low-end sculpting
03Granular sampler with advanced time-stretching and tempo synchronization
04Dual multi-mode filters with morphing, comb, vowel, and formant modes, plus key tracking
05FM/AM modulation system allowing any module to modulate any other module or itself
065-stage AHDSR envelope with looping, one-shot, and BPM-sync modes
07Morphing LFO with four waveforms, trigger modes, and randomization
08Nine-slot effects rack with virtually all Minimal Audio effects including Cluster Delay and Morph EQ
09Arpeggiator and chord generator with scale-locking and drag-to-reorder tabs
10Full MPE support with customizable keyboard modulation curves and ranges
11Curve sequencer and envelope follower modulators for dynamic control
12Integrated Stream browser for cloud-connected presets, samples, and wavetables

Things to Try

  • 01Enable Key Track Mode on the filters to lock resonance peaks to played notes, creating perfectly tuned resonator-style effects
  • 02Use the Envelope Follower set to Engine Output to sidechain-duck one sound source with the dynamics of another
  • 03Morph between LFO waveforms continuously by disabling Shape Snap, then modulate the morphing parameter for evolving modulation character
  • 04Set the Arpeggiator to One-Shot Mode and modulate its Rate parameter to create dynamic rhythmic variation across steps
