We hope that you have had a great 2009! It turned out an excellent year for Sonic Charge. Synplant's first full year in existence was met with great enthusiasm from our users and the press. The Synplant demonstration video was viewed over 70.000 times and we are counting 25.000 downloads of the plug-in already. Earlier this year, Synplant reached position six when the public voted on best new product 2009 for the British MIA Music Awards and just recently we found out that Electronic Musician chose Synplant to receive their Download Of The Year award! Hurray!
But lets not forget good old trustworthy µTonic either. After six years in service with one major upgrade it is as vital as ever and still the go-to plug-in for synthetic rhythm explorations. (Although we do admit it has been more than a while since we gave it the attention it deserves over here.)
On another note, we have finally managed to release the Symbiosis source code to the public. Symbiosis is the AU / VST wrapping solution used for our products and for Addictive Drums and Cytomic The Glue to name a few. If you are a VST developer looking to port your plug-ins to AU you shouldn't miss this out.
Thanks for making 2009 such a great year for us and we raise our glasses for a terrific 2010 to come!

TeamDNR has released
"Synplantation Vol 1", a commercial set of sounds for Synplant that we can highly recommend. The package consists of 32
well-grown patches that will be yours for only $5. A no-brainer deal if you ask us. Check out
this short demo track if you are hesitating.

We are amazed and proud to discover that Synplant reached position six when the public voted on best new product 2009 for the British MIA Music Awards! musicradar.com arranged the poll and their motivation to Synplant's success goes like this:
“Synthesizers have rarely stepped off the familiar path of oscillator, filter and amp over the last 20-odd years… until Synplant dumped all familiarities in favour of a "genetic approach" to sound design in 2009!”
The nominations included all kinds of hard and soft music equipment ranging from the exotic (esoteric?) Eigenharp to environmentally friendly drums and software such as Propellerheads Record. Korg ultimately won the award with their series of Nano controllers.
