PowerCore Version 1.5 introduced the "PowerCore Instruments" format, allowing virtual instruments to access the processing power of the card. TC POWERCORE 01 is the first of a new kind of virtual instrument Plug-In, interfacing with VST – but running the DSP code on the card.

TC POWERCORE 01 is a monophonic synthesizer for the TC PowerCore, which is modeled after the classic analog monosynth. Unlike its inspiration, it even comes with more than 100 unique presets and is great for fat bass, wicked leads, sound FX and even percussion.

As an open platform, TC PowerCore supports 3rd parties. The WALDORF D-Coder goes beyond classic Vocoder concepts and is based on the synthesis and DSP technology used in the popular Waldorf Q and MicroQ synthesizers, now made accessible to TC PowerCore users from inside any VST-compatible sequencer.

Currently evaluating the platform, ACCESS will be providing PowerCore users with a virtual synth for the PowerCore later this year.

TC POWERCORE 01 is available for both Mac and PC. Registered users can download the synth on the TC Works website. .

System Requirements:

TC PowerCore
TC PowerCore Software 1.5 (also available as free download)
VST Instrument compatible sequencer application like Logic, Cubase or Nuendo.
