Xhun Audio – LittleOne, Emulator for Little Phatty

If you didn’t win the Little Phatty in the competition we mentioned a while back, and you still haven’t saved up to buy one, then Xhun Audio has released a product they’re calling the LittleOne – a complete software emulation of the Moog synthesiser. The VST is a darn sight cheaper than the hardware at a mere €45, and gives you a version that you can run in the studio or take with you to gigs on your laptop…

Here are the specs:

  • The Moog Little Phatty Physical Modeling emulation
  • An all-in-one complete synthesis setup!
  • Two aliasing-free analog modeled oscillators with continuous selection mode ( like the original ) between Triangle, Saw, Square, Pulse
  • A 4-Pole Low Pass filter modeled on the classic Moog Ladder, featuring the original frequency responses and overload control
  • Two 4-Stage ( ADSR ) envelope generators
  • Modulation LFO with the original waveforms and frequency ranges ( 0.2~500 Hz )
  • Monophonic/polyphonic mode , pitch bend ranges and more – all accessible from LittleOne LED display
  • 128 ready-to-use presets from classic analog to contemporary cutting-edge dance to psychoacoustic sounds and SFX
  • XSQ16M, a build-in 16-step MIDI sequencer
  • GATED!, a build-in 16-step trancegate effect
  • Two master effects slots with the possibility to choose between delay, reverb, and tube distortion
  • Full MIDI CC#s mapping (according to the original Little Phatty CC#s specs)
  • Win A Moog Little Phatty

    little phattyIf you happen to be lucky enough (!) to live in Birmingham or it’s environs, then you should get to the Music Live show at the NEC, 6th-8th November (this weekend) where Source Distribution will be giving away a cool MOOG synthesiser. This is a keyboard as versatile in the studio as it is on stage, and worth more than £1k: “Moog Music is proud to introduce the Little Phatty Stage II; the newest member of the Little Phatty family. Like the Stage and Tribute Edition before it, the Little Phatty Stage II puts the performer in control of a 100% analog signal path, two ultra stable Voltage Controlled Oscillators, a Voltage Controlled Filter and other versatile features like an external audio input, CV and KB gate inputs and a full MIDI controller.” Then you can make lots of lovely tunes on it to upload to our music distribution service!
