    Bloom Synth Analogue from Excite Audio is a virtual instrument built from sounds sampled from vintage hardware synthesisers. Instead of programming an analogue synth from a blank patch, you start from recorded chords, leads, basses, arps and phrases, and the Bloom engine plays them back in key and in time with your project. A sequencer layers one shots and looping phrases into quick song starters, and four macros named Tube, Age, Circuit and Expand reshape the tone in seconds. Updated Aug 21, 2026.

    Key Features

    • Eight sample banks with 112 samples recorded from vintage synthesisers
    • More than 250 presets organised into seven categories
    • Import up to 112 of your own samples in the full edition
    • Four macros called Tube, Age, Circuit and Expand for quick tone shaping
    • Sequencer for layering phrases and one shots into song ideas

    Bulldog Tuned is a vocal tuning plugin for Mac from Bulldog Samples, built for producers who want pitch correction that stays musical. It detects the notes in a vocal and nudges stray notes towards the correct pitch, with the amount under your control so a take can stay natural or firm. A built in harmoniser can create extra harmony parts from a single vocal, which is handy for backing vocals. It runs as a VST3 plugin with ARA2 support in compatible hosts, or as a standalone app. Updated Aug 21, 2026.

    Key Features

    • Automatic vocal pitch correction with careful note detection
    • Adjustable correction strength for natural or firm tuning

    4. Insert Bulldog Tuned on a vocal track, set the key of your song and adjust the correction amount.

    System Requirements
