Somebody built a synth whose headline knob exists to break it on purpose, and the kicker is that OA Labs charges zero dollars for the thing. That knob goes by AGE, and cranking it sends tuning, cutoff, volume, and envelope shape wandering off together while its chaos engine churns out motion underneath.
Dial it back down, though, and everything snaps to attention, clean and dead accurate. That's the whole pitch from OA Labs, an instrument that behaves when asked, then gets gnarly when pushed.
Spec sheet is chunky for a freebie. Two oscillators ride alongside a sub, the multimode filter morphs through notch, band-pass, high-pass and low-pass settings on a single knob, and drift runs independently across the filter, unison, sub and LFOs.
The arpeggiator spits out patterns with groove and step-by-step tweaking, 68 presets ship in the box, and a help mode sits right there for anyone lost in the panel. Mac users grab OA-Phosphor-1 in AU or VST3 format. Early days for it, and OA Labs has more cooking.
