About Modular
Modular is a modular software synthesizer title in the register of virtual Eurorack environments — instruments where the architecture is not fixed but assembled from individual modules connected by virtual patch cables. The approach is significant because it inverts the usual synthesis workflow: rather than choosing from a preset architecture, the user builds the signal path itself, which is both the appeal and the learning curve. Softube Modular, the best-documented instrument in this category, is described as a modular synthesizer plug-in, developed in partnership with Doepfer that comes with component-modeled versions of seven analog hardware modules from Doepfer.
Environments of this class typically include a rack into which modules are placed, patch cords for audio and control-voltage routing, and a module library spanning oscillators, filters, envelopes, LFOs, sequencers, effects, and utilities. Real hardware modules are licensed from named manufacturers: Doepfer in the base set, and Buchla, Intellijel, 4ms, and Mutable Instruments as premium add-ons. A notable capability is that Softube plug-ins can be used as modules — Saturation Knob, Tube Delay, the TSAR-1 and TSAR-1R reverbs, and Spring Reverb can be used as modules in Modular, as can our drum machine, Heartbeat — and CV control your effects with LFOs, random noise, even audio frequency oscillators. General requirements for Softube Modular are macOS Sonoma 14, Sequoia 15, or Tahoe 26 or Windows 10 (64-bit) or Windows 11, a Softube account, an iLok account, a computer with AU, VST, VST3 and/or AAX compatible DAW host software, and internet access for downloading installers and managing licenses. It suits electronic music, experimental production, sound design, and modular-influenced scoring. Confirm which modular environment your listing refers to, since several developers publish instruments under this name.
