P_4L II is a synthesizer built around the incredible and iconic Plaits eurorack module by Mutable Instruments.

More than just a clone, it is an entire modular ecosystem with Plaits as the core sound generator, including everything you need to properly utilize the huge sound creation capabilities it provides.

Additionally, while operating in Poly or Unison modes, it has an independent oscillator for each voice, so really it has 7 copies of Plaits at its disposal.

When considering a modular system with so many oscillators I couldn’t imagine always using the same settings in each one.
With that in mind, P_4L II was conceived as a multi-timbral instrument where each voice can have unique settings for all of the most important parameters. To achieve this, it employs per-voice variation controls that evenly distribute the parameter values above and below the displayed knob value. This keeps the user interface simple while enabling the selection of distinct values for a parameter across all voices using a single control.

P_4L II contains the following global ‘modules’:

- 2 complex multi-mode LFOs, tempo synced or free running
- a Random Voltage Generator with 4 custom algorithms
- a velocity sensitive ADSR with 2 switchable response curves
- a clock generator, tempo synced or free running
- a modulation patch bay with attenuation

P_4L II has up to 7 voices, each voice contains:

- a virtual Plaits oscillator, complete with internal envelope / LPG, designated Level control, and dual outputs, with all parameters exposed for modulation either internally, via Live, or both.
- a great sounding ladder filter with 6 filter types, drive controls, and capable of self oscillation
- a Sample & Hold that can act as a manual voltage offset (allowing for more, and more precise multi-timbral control)
- an independent oscillator output (pre-filter) for audio-rate self modulation

Some other nice features include:

- modulation attenuation and inversion built into the knobs
- 4 pitch detune modes - Prog, Equal, Power, and Drift
- a momentary octave shift control
- width control, evenly panning each voice in stereo space
- MIDI velocity, aftertouch, and key tracking as modulation sources
- Ableton Push integration
- automatic random blindfolded patching button
