About

Quark makes sound the FM way: six operators, each a wave at a ratio of the note (or a pitch of its own), bending one another. Any operator can bend any other through a routing matrix, its own cell is feedback, and twelve ready-made algorithms set it in one click.

Each operator has its own envelope, velocity and key scaling, and its wave can be a basic one, one of the built-in wavetables or a Serum table of yours. A picture of the routing shows what bends what as you patch it.

Around them sit a filter and its envelope, LFOs and mod envelopes you drag onto any knob, eight macros, an arpeggiator and Athena's effects. Browse 109 presets by genre: tine pianos, bells, slap and growl basses, 808s, pads, plucks, leads and brass.
