STS-33 - Space Transition Synthesizer

for Pads, Textures, Soundscapes, Athmospherics & more




This synthesizer is featuring Wave-Transition method for absolute unique atmospheres, soundscapes, pads & textures.
A very straight userinterface with 10 "Lazy"-Buttons for randomizing different sets of parameters so programming this
synthesizer is incredibly easy. The Transition method plus the new Super modulation X/Y control pad add a stunning
new dimension and motion for an evolving sound changing completely it's characteristics.

The basic features:

  • New: Super Modulation X/Y Control Pad to modulate up to 8 destinations simultaneuosly!
  • New: Step Modulator - even driven by keystroke on non legato play
  • New: Enhanced LFO Section with 6 LFO and SH&H with 5 being syncable to keystroke
  • New: Frequency Split - have lower fequencies to midposition (enhancing bass!) while the freqs. above can be panned
  • four digital PCM-wave oscillators powered by 128 selectable waveforms as internal Sf2
  • two resonant filters (24db Lowpass and 12 db Highpass)
  • three ADSR-style envelope generators
  • two output channels (F & D) with LoBoost, Saturate, Delay (+ modulation) and Pan to stereo sum
  • 10 dedicated Lazy buttons


    • The Pro version incorporates loading of soundfonts (SF2) & wavefiles (up to 24 Bit)
    The 2 voice free version does support only 64 patches per bank and is supplied with 3 banks = 196 patches,

    The Pro version is available for only 20Euro as reduced backlist price!
    You may aquire the Pro version in my VST/i Shop

    I let users speak about the STS-33:
    from comments on my MySpace page
  • Timothy Moffet:
    STS-33 is a mind blowing synthesizer! Even better than fireworks... :o)


  • Alexandre Falcao:
    The new STS-33 looks and sounds great.


    • from usermails:
  • Jack Solium:
    i have already started some tracks with it during those last weeks, this Rom7 is so inspiring, it's a real pleasure to work with.


    • prior versions: STS-26 (taken from a thread at kvr):

  • hyperborea:
    First of all our compliments to Dimitri for his outstanding compositions on the new Fortune Machine. As always it looks and sounds most impressive and we are confident that it will be a huge hit on the ever growing group of fans this developer has.

  • mayan:
    This is really exciting! Thanks. When I'm done with my current project (which is getting my website off the ground and publishing six or seven almost done pieces), I might very well be tempted to do an entirely Fortune-inspired piece. The Fortune synth- line is one of those places where software capabilities trumps hardware for me.


  • sickle:
    Very VERY impressive.,Hat's off once again, HG!


  • vesper75:
    Been playing with my copy for about an hour now...this thing is wild. Each patch is nearly a mini composition in itself....I keep wanting to just hold down a few keys and drift off in reverie.


  • onexeno:
    Absolutely wonderful! It seems that each Fortune creation eclipses those that came before it. Ann's presets are incredibly good. Thanks to all involved.


  • agincourtdb:
    Agreed, this sounds awesome. Many many thanks.


  • woolyloach:
    I got the email, I saw, I upgraded! Worth every penny and more!!
    I find myself using STS-24 and Protoplasm more and more.. STS-26 will end up in a lot of my tunes as well!
    Excellent work from an excellent developer, and I love the patches too!


  • xnah:
    I wish more developers would create wonderful toys like this (using SE).


  • Berfab:
    This thing is awesome. It's much more than an upgrade to STS-24...it's a whole new instrument. The GUI is great, the sound is crystal clear, and the new rhythm loops are really the icing on the cake.
    I really think that this could easily replace Absynth in a lot of setups (like mine).
    Great work HGF! Congratulations.

    Thanks Fortune what a lovely upgrade !! In the future I will be doing a film piece using your synth and EastWest Symphonic Choirs. Thanks Again
