The BioTek 3 Black Friday deal covers the BioTek 3 + Expansions Bundle: 40% off, $179.40, until Nov 6, 2026. It pairs Tracktion's BioTek 3 synthesizer with its expansion packs: Obsidian, Dusk, Pulse and Colossus.
BioTek 3 is the synth at the center. The maker describes it as an evolution of Tracktion's deepest, most creative synthesizer, with upgrades to the UI, UX and audio engine.
The bundle spans ambient textures, downtempo, house and cinematic scoring.
BioTek 3 runs on a one-page workflow. The new Easy page puts the essential controls in one place, next to a dynamic visual XY pad. The pad lets you steer sounds that evolve and morph as you move it.
Tracktion says the audio engine handles 50+ instances, which matters when you stack synth tracks in a big session.
The main features:
All four packs come from the same line of BioTek expansions, and the maker says each preset is built around the XY pad.
Colossus lays its sounds out across the keyboard, so you can audition and blend them straight from the keys.
BioTek 3 is a plugin, so it needs a DAW host to run. It also needs 1GB of free disk space.
The expansion packs need a full version of BioTek 2 or BioTek 3. Pulse is listed as compatible with BioTek 3 and Attracktive.
Yes. The BioTek 3 Black Friday deal takes 40% off the bundle, so it costs $179.40 until Nov 6, 2026. The bundle combines the BioTek 3 synthesizer with the Obsidian, Dusk, Pulse and Colossus expansion packs from Tracktion.
You get the BioTek 3 synth with its 800+ factory presets, plus four expansion packs. Obsidian is ambient, Dusk is downtempo, Pulse is house, and Colossus is cinematic. The packs add 100+, 100+, 80+ and 120-plus sounds respectively.
On Mac it needs macOS 10.9 or later, a 64-bit Intel or Apple Silicon chip and 2GB RAM, with 8GB recommended. On Windows 7 to 11 it needs an Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz and 2GB RAM. Both need a DAW host and 1GB of disk space.
The XY pad is a dynamic visual control on the Easy page. It gives you hands-on control over sounds that evolve and morph on demand. The maker says every preset in the expansion packs is designed to take advantage of it.
