Get ready to believe the hype! AIR Hype is a revolutionary and exciting synthesizer plugin instrument that pushes the boundaries far beyond its already massive sound preset library. Originally crafted exclusively for Akai Professional's Standalone MPC and Force products, Hype is now available by popular demand in AU, VST, AAX, and Desktop App formats for use in any host.

Created by the same world-class team behind the highly acclaimed Hybrid 3, The Riser, and Loom 2, Hype builds on a legacy of over 20 years of excellence. Today's modern music production and beat making demand innovative instruments that ignite creativity, and Hype is engineered to exceed your expectations on all fronts, providing that crucial spark for your next hit.

POWERFUL HYBRID ENGINE

At its core, AIR Hype is driven by four powerful sound engines: FM, Wavetable, Virtual Analog, and Sampled. These engines are the result of decades of research and meticulous design. While each is formidable on its own, their true power emerges when combined, allowing you to create truly huge, expressive sounds that fill your studio with massive, multi-dimensional sonic textures. This hybrid approach gives you unparalleled flexibility in sound design.

PACKED WITH PRESETS

Dive right into an ocean of sonic bliss with Hype's vast library of sounds. Featuring over 1500 carefully categorized presets, you'll find page after page of instruments that will instantly inspire your next production idea. With six dedicated Macro controls and eight Editing dials, you can quickly tweak and shape sounds specifically for your project and save your customizations for quick access later. These breathtaking sounds will quickly spark any producer's creativity, making music production a fluid, uninhibited, and seamless process, allowing you to craft your unique sonics with a world-class synthesizer.

AWARD-WINNING EFFECTS BY AIR TECHNOLOGY

AIR Hype includes world-class audio effects processing built right in, empowering you to enhance your sounds as you create with incredible speed. Choose from a comprehensive suite of effects including Modulation, Distortion, Hype (EQ), Reverb, Delay, Compressor, Pumper, and Limiter. Each effect has a dedicated section for dialing in precise adjustments. The Effects panel is intuitively displayed on every page of AIR Hype, allowing you to conveniently enable or bypass any of the eight effects at any time during your workflow.

The AIR Creative FX collection has been a staple of Pro Tools since Version 8, earning its reputation as a reference FX suite among some of the world's most respected audio professionals. AIR FX has been featured in many top film, game, and music projects over the last decade. Each plugin is expertly designed with ease of use in mind, ensuring professional results every time you use them.
