The RetroMod LoFreq Modern Black Friday deal takes 40% off this Tracktion virtual instrument, bringing it to $47.40 until Nov 6, 2026.
LoFreq Modern is a sampled synth collection with 11 instruments from 1996 to 2018. Waldorf Pulse 1 and 2, DSTech Original Syn and Eowave Magma are among them.
The maker says the sampling is meticulous, so each instrument keeps the feel of the original hardware.
The modern synths were sampled through Avalon U5, A-Design Reddi, Phoenix Audio NiceDI, Universal Audio 2192, RME ADI-2 and VoVox Cables.
The instruments in the collection:
On top of the samples, the plug-in adds a contemporary layer. The maker points to a secondary multimode resonant filter as the source of that twist.
A second oscillator is there to beef up the sound.
The XY Pad lets you push colour onto the original sound, either subtle or aggressive, depending on how you set it.
Unison goes up to 16 voices, so a single note can stack into a wide, thick patch.
The integrated arpeggiator generates patterns quickly. The maker lists pulsing basses, searing leads and thick pads as typical results.
The library is built on 12,000 samples and ships with 323 presets. Total file size is 4.6 GB, so plan your drive space before installing.
On Mac, it runs on macOS 10.9 or later in 32 and 64-bit, in AU, AAX and VST formats. On Windows, it supports Windows 7, 8 and 10 in 32 and 64-bit, in AAX and VST formats.
Both platforms call for an Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz processor and 2GB of RAM, with 8GB recommended.
If your DAW only loads AU, that format is Mac-only here. Windows users load it as VST or AAX.
