Looking for an ImPerfect 1.6 Black Friday deal? W. A. Production's synth plugin is 60% off, down to $35.60 until Nov 29, 2026.
ImPerfect is a soft-synth built around analogue-style wobble. The maker says most digital synths chase pristine tuning and clean tone, and this one goes the other way with wavering detuned oscillators and modulating effects.
The layout is familiar: 5 oscillators, envelopes, filters, LFOs and an arpeggiator.
Three modulation sliders set how much analogue-style processing the synth applies.
The maker pitches these for pads that sound analogue and arpeggios that keep moving.
Oscillators 1 and 2 each morph between 4 waveforms. On top of those you can layer a sampled waveform, a sub-oscillator and a noise profile.
Ring and frequency modulation can be dialled in, along with octave, detune and pulse width settings.
Oscillator 3 loads from 260 preset waveforms. You can also load your own WAV file and reshape it with the synth's processing.
ImPerfect 1.6 gives you a pair of X/Y pads, each controlling two parameters at once, so four in all. Play them live or automate them, and 3 performance modes twist your timbres automatically.
A central scope shows the waveform you are building, next to left and right output meters.
The arpeggiator covers up to 4 octaves. Its rate syncs to your host BPM at various note intervals or runs free, and a switch latches or unlatches it.
Global controls cover tuning and glide time. Mono or poly modes go up to 16 voices.
The maker includes hundreds of factory presets, with a browser that lets you audition sounds before loading them.
If you run a Mac with Apple Silicon, the maker asks you to review this plugin's current compatibility status before purchasing.
Yes. The ImPerfect 1.6 Black Friday deal takes 60% off W. A. Production's synth plugin, bringing it to $35.60. The offer runs until Nov 29, 2026.
You get 5 oscillator modules, 260 preset waveforms plus loading of your own samples, dual X/Y pads, filters, effects, dual envelopes and LFOs, an arpeggiator, hundreds of factory presets, a PDF manual and a tutorial video.
ImPerfect comes as VST for Windows 8 or later (32/64 bit), VST and AU for macOS 10.13 and later (64-bit only), and AAX for Pro Tools 11 or higher. It also has native Apple Silicon support.
Wacky adds phaser, chorus and delay. Cracky raises saturation to add harmonics. Shaky modulates pitch, from subtle detuning at low settings to heavy pitch modulation when pushed. Together they give the synth its analogue-style imperfections.
