Acustica Audio have released Squid3, available at the intro price of €139.00, increasing to €199.00 after the promotion. The offer ends January 14th.
SQUID-3 is a forward-thinking synthesizer born from Acustica’s groundbreaking MAREA series. Built to respond better than a real instrument, SQUID-3 gives you the speed to create instantly, and the depth to design without limits. It’s fluid, focused, and sonically honest.
This isn’t a vintage emulation, or a collection of pretty presets under reverb.
SQUID-3 fuses algorithmic modeling with advanced convolution, capturing the behavior of analog gear – better than gear does.
It’s a new breed – designed to sound finished, even before the FX.
Every stage of its engine, from oscillator to output, was built to make raw synthesis sound like a mastered record.
SQUID-3 is available in two separate editions:
- the Standard (3-D, multi-page) edition, hardware-inspired interface with depth, lighting, and tactile realism for an immersive studio feel.
- a Flat (2-D version, single-page) edition, A clean, flat design optimized for speed, built for maximum graphic efficiency, where all controls are summarized on a single page.
Features include:
- Superstereo – Analog drift so real, it creates stereo depth by itself
- Berserkr – Continuously tilt from vintage roll-off to full modern clarity
- Return – Pre-filter feedback adds thickness before the filter sculpts the tone
- Drive – Post-filter drive – polyphonic, analog-like tone with no extra FX needed
- Sub Osc – Selectable sub waveforms for deep, stable, hardware-beating lows
- Precision – Sample-accurate event and modulation timing
- Up-Rate Wave Morphing (UPRM) – Delivers true audio-rate, oversampled waveform morphing with consistent detail and stability under fast, complex modulation
- Full MPE – True per-note expression with pitch, pressure, and timbre control
- Studio FX – Mastering-grade FX unit including shimmer, reverbs, chorus, delays, distortion, OTT, and EQ
