Key Features
The Capsule Lamelle is a synth that pays homage to the resonant tones of plucked percussive instruments. Perfect for adding depth and character to your compositions, this instrument boasts 48 presets that traverse an array of sounds, from plucks to mallets, bells, and keys. The Lamelle enriches the harmonics of its sampled sounds, infusing them with sustain and body for a truly distinctive sonic experience.
With the Capsule Lamelle, you can blend synthesized sounds with acoustic elements, creating captivating transients and effects that enhance your tracks. Whether you're looking for melodic melodies, percussive beats, or organic textures, these unique sounds can be layered and stacked to add richness and rhythm to your music.
Featuring 64 included sounds, multiple plugin views, and an extensive preset browser, the Capsule Lamelle offers a user-friendly experience for both seasoned musicians and beginners. With the main 'Transient' control knob and seven additional knobs for parameters such as Brightness, Hammers, Timbre, FM, LoFi, Delay, and Reverb, you have full control over shaping and refining your sound.

With the Capsule Lamelle, you have access to powerful macro controls that allow you to shape the sound of each instrument. These knobs give you the ability to achieve a wide range of timbres by adjusting a combination of settings. Each macro control can affect one or more parameters of the sound engine, giving you precise control over the characteristics of the sound. Custom-made for each instrument, every time you load a new preset, a new set of macro controls will be loaded. These macro controls are named after the specific effect they have on the sound. The main macro, represented by the larger knob in the centre, has the most significant impact on the sound, while the other macros are designed for fine-tuning the sound design. And for seamless integration with your hardware MIDI controller, each macro control can be mapped to a knob or fader element using the MIDI learn option.
The visual keyboard tab on the interface of the Capsule Lamelle provides a convenient way to input notes directly or monitor the notes you are playing. This feature gives you a visual representation of the keyboard, allowing for easy navigation and precise playing. On the left side of the interface, you'll find two "pitch bend" value slots that let you adjust the up and down range of the pitch wheel, enabling you to add expressive pitch bends of up to +/- 12 semitones to your performance.
The play settings of the Capsule Lamelle offer a range of options to shape the playability of each instrument. The response curves, located on the left side of the panel, allow you to adjust the sensitivity of the instrument to your MIDI keyboard input. By dragging the handle of the curves, you can make the response softer or harder, depending on your preference. This feature is available for velocity, aftertouch, pitch wheel, and mod wheel, giving you precise control over the dynamics and expression of your performance. These settings are saved within your preset, ensuring that your desired playability is always ready to go. Additionally, a small play head on the interface shows you the value of the last played note, allowing for easy reference and monitoring while playing.
The AHDSR section of the Capsule Lamelle gives you control over the global amplitude envelope of each instrument. With knobs dedicated to each of the five stages, you can adjust the attack, hold, decay, sustain, and release of your sound. If you want to add an extra layer of dynamics to your playing, the "Velocity" slider allows you to make the amplitude sensitive to the velocity of your input. Slide it down for a constant amplitude, regardless of velocity, or slide it all the way up for a gradual increase in amplitude based on velocity input.
In the voicing section, you have the flexibility to adjust the voicing mode of the Capsule Lamelle. The options available are as follows:
