: The engine stacks up to eight oscillators, each acting as an individual "cell" with its own amplitude envelope.

The device is available as a Pack from Ableton and requires Ableton Live 11 or later with Max for Live. OctoCell - Ableton

: Designed for MIDI Polyphonic Expression, allowing per-note control of parameters like pitch bend, pressure, and slide for highly expressive performances.

: Offers global "Harmonicity" dials to scale the tunings of all oscillators at once, along with a "Random" control to introduce unpredictable, evolving qualities.

: Includes a central modulation matrix, a step sequencer/modulator, and two multi-purpose "modulators" that combine LFO and envelope functions.

: When set to sine mode, each oscillator is paired with its own dedicated frequency modulation (FM) oscillator and FM envelope.

: Features a global filter section for subtractive synthesis and built-in effects to further shape the complex additive tones.

: Every oscillator can be toggled between sine, sawtooth, or square waves.
