Synapse Audio Software The Legend HZ

Synapse Audio Software The Legend Overview

Developed in collaboration with iconic and award-winning film composer Hans Zimmer, The Legend HZ continues the legacy of its predecessor The Legend.

The result of this collaborative effort is an analog modeled software synthesizer that is uniquely positioned for use in modern film scoring and music production applications . Most importantly, it maintains this position while faithfully recreating the sonic characteristics of the original hardware.

Unrivaled Precision
The Legend HZ has been designed with great care and attention to detail, so no opportunity was missed to create a software synth that is both incredibly easy to use and insanely versatile. At its core, it is the product of the combined knowledge of a genre-defining composer and Synapse Audio’s experience in emulating an industry-defining synth.

Building on the success of The Legend, we teamed up with Hans Zimmer to chart new frontiers in analog modeling synthesis. The Legend HZ adds many features that were previously unavailable in The Legend. These include three additional oscillators (and with them additional polyphony control), a modulation matrix, a 32-step sequencer, MSEG for additional modulation controls, and an expanded effects section.

The Legend HZ even features a fixed filter bank modeled after Hans Zimmer’s personal Vintage 914 fixed filter bank, an exceptional and rare piece of equipment.

Furthermore, 200 factory presets have been added, developed jointly by expert sound designers Kevin Schroeder and Hans Zimmer. The factory sound bank gives anyone access to a wide range of cinematic-style sounds, while the Legend HZ itself provides access to some of the instruments they use.

Legend HZ is available in VST®, AAX and Audio Unit formats and supports MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) as well as Native Kontrol Standard (NKS).
