VU950

VU950 is not about realism. It is about behavior. Sound shaped by limits, gain interaction and audible artifacts — the same forces that defined early digital samplers.
Draws inspiration from classic midi sequencers combined with samplers.

Why it sounds the way it does
Instead of emulating a single piece of hardware, VU950 recreates the way early samplers behaved internally. Resolution limits, imperfect filtering and non-linear stages are treated as musical decisions, not technical flaws.

What shapes the sound

VU950 sample rate: 7.5 kHz to 48 kHz
Full timestretch workflow with classic hardware sampler tone
Reduced bit depth processing for early-digital density
User-adjustable anti-aliasing behavior
Stereo signal path with selectable left or right input channel
Dedicated input gain stage with drive and circuit bias
Multiple filtering stages including bandwidth limitation
Built-in low-pass filter for tone shaping
Anti-aliasing tuned for musical artifacts, not transparency
Non-linear processing across the entire signal path
Output gain stage that affects tone and density, not just level
MIDI-controllable parameters for hands-on workflow
Maximum sample length: 63 seconds
Truncate option to trim sample
Precise mode for precise trimming on start and end screen
One or eight voices of polyphony
Precise start and end point control for trimming
Chop function with selectable amount of slices
