Excite Audio has unveiled its latest creation, the sample-based synthesizer Evolve Alloy. This versatile instrument, available at Plugin Boutique, is a must-have for producers seeking a metallic edge to their sound.
Evolve Alloy boasts a four-layer engine that seamlessly blends sample-based and synthetic sound sources. With over 250 presets, you'll find a wealth of options, from glockenspiels to industrial foley, and metallic synth layers.

One of the standout features of Evolve Alloy is its rearrangeable three-slot FX chain, dual filters, and one-click randomisation. Users can import their own samples and shape sounds in real-time with an expressive XY Pad, making it suitable for genres like ambient, techno, industrial, and experimental music.
Regarding pricing, Evolve Alloy is available in two editions through Plugin Boutique: the Full version, priced at £59 / €59 / $59, and an introductory promo price of £39 / €39 / $39 (33% off). The Lite version, priced at £29 / €29 / $29, is also available, with an intro promo for £19 / €19 / $19. An upgrade from Lite to Full costs £30 / €30 / $30 MSRP, with a promo at £20 / €20 / $20. Rent-to-own options are also available, with rates around £3.29/€3.29/$3.29 per month.
For those looking for more, Excite Audio offers a bundle that includes Evolve Alloy at a substantial discount. Evolve Alloy supports macOS and Windows in VST, AU, and AAX formats.
In summary, Evolve Alloy is a creatively focused, metallic-themed synth with flexible layering and modulation, offered at competitive pricing with multiple purchasing options on Plugin Boutique. This could be the first instrument in an upcoming series, so keep an eye out for more exciting releases from Excite Audio.
After the launch of Evolve Alloy, producers keen on adding a metallic edge to their Techno or experimental tracks might find the synth's rearrangeable FX chain, dual filters, and XY Pad particularly handy for real-time sound shaping. Mastering their Techno tracks could be further enhanced with the inclusion of Evolve Alloy's metal-inspired plugins such as Sharpen, Rust, Vibrate, and Spring in their production workflow.
