XILS Lab Kaox
Synthesizer Virtual Instrument
Inspired by a legendary FM synthesizer - reinforced by Analog Oscillators and Filters and Sublimated by Chaotic Algorithms.
The Versatility and The Brilliance of FM Synthesis
8 operators, 2 outputs, 2 banks with independent pitch, easy programming of the FM algorithms, XILS-lab worked hard at sublimating the FM synthesis to a new level.
A clear, brilliant, and deep sound with a vibe that can be sourced from the other available Analog or Chaotic oscillators.
The Power and Warmth of the Analog Synthesis
2 continuous waveform oscillators, 2 zero-delay like filters, drawing on the vast experience of XILS-lab. A Deep, Warm, and living sound.
The Organic Life of the Chaotic Algorithms
2 chaotic oscillators and 2 chaotic modulators. Create sounds that you had never thought possible.
Easy Graphic Interface Makes Your Preset Faster to Tweak

FM Synthesis
On each of the two available layers you will find:
- 8 operators
- 2 outputs
- The 8 operators are grouped into 2 banks with independent pitch. This typical architecture is useful for creating chorus like FM sounds or punchy stereo presets.
Each operator features:
- One LFO
- One envelope
- Wheel and Aftertouch access
- Two user definable external modulators (to be assigned to any KaoX modulation sources)
- Keyboard follower 2D pad
- Ratio or absolute frequency
- Low pass filter
Analog Synthesis
On each of the two available layers you will find:
- 2 continuous waveform analog oscillators
- 2 zero-delay like analog filters
- 4 envelopes D-ADSR
- 4 outputs VCA
- For a Deep, Warm and living sound.
