Martinic AX73 是 Akai AX73 6 复音模拟合成器的复刻插件，这款合成器硬件发布于 1986 年。Martinic 在组件级别 (高级电路仿真) 对 AX73 进行建模，并将其放入一个灵活的双层合成器架构中。插件的每个层级附带两个具有多个波形的振荡器 (总共四个) 和一个噪声发生器。该插件附带第二个振荡器，来自 AX-80 的子振荡器，可作为扩展的 VCO 振荡器，音程范围达 32 度。
滤波器方面，该插件复刻了 24dB/oct 的 4 极高通滤波器，带 FM 选项。不过开发者在调制方面进行了一些提升，插件的每个层级有有 4 个包络 (三个可指定) 和 4 个 LFO，所以一共就有 8 个包络和 8 个 LFO，这为你提供了足够的工具来创造声音的运动。
插件的效果器部分不再按照层级进行划分，而是全局影响两个层级的信号。在原版 Akai AX-73 合成器中只有一个合唱插件，然而在插件中增加了 EQ、混响、延迟、压缩器、移相器、镶边和失真效果器，这些效果器可以通过拖拽的方式放置于效果器链当中并进行排序。

In 1986, the synth skies were studded with digital technology. That’s why the original AX73, with its proudly all-analog signal path ended up flying under the radar. Martinic has taken what was great about the original AX73 and elevated it into a powerful, flexible software instrument that fits right into the modern producer’s lineup of go-to synths.
With four analog oscillators across two synth layers, unique modulation features, extended performance options, and an eight-module effects section, this plugin AX73 (VST/AU) unleashes the full power of the original hardware and more – no menu diving required, and all perfectly modeled through our Advanced Circuitry Emulation technology. And, it includes a generous lineup of 600+ inspiring presets to get you started right away.
An interface for the 21st century
Settings View offers a clean, easy-to-use set of parameters for quick editing.
The Keys View, which emulates the look of the original hardware, has also been upgraded with many more functions – no menu-diving required!
The robust Preset Manager allows you to quickly save and sort your favorite presets into “collections” that you can easily export and share with friends!
New Effects Section
Process the synth’s output with eight built-in effects units
Compressor, Phaser, Flanger, Chorus, Delay, Reverb, Distortion, and EQ
These effects can be routed in any order you like – simply rearrange them by dragging and dropping them in the FX Chain.
Something Borrowed
The best elements from other synths in the AX range have been distilled into a feature-rich reinterpretation of the AX73. Notable examples include: extra chorus settings and the arpeggiator from the AX60, a second VCO and sub-oscillator from the AX80, and an extended VCO octave range down to 32’, as seen in both the AX60 and 80.
Mod Power!
The AX73 plugin also offers far greater modulation capabilities than the original. It features four envelopes per layer (three of which are assignable), and four assignable LFOs per layer. Taking both layers into account, this gives a formidable eight envelopes and eight LFOs.
Split or Stack Layers to build your sound
Uniquely, the AX73 has two layers that can be split across the keyboard – allowing you to play two patches simultaneously – or stacked, providing an extra dimension of sound design. And, each layer has its own independent arpeggiator with 11 built-in modes – including some unusual modes such as Shuffle and Improv – that you can use to quickly create melodies.
Whats New
