The plugin is well designed and easy to use, packing a lot of horsepower in a compact package. ULTRAkILLER features one standard waveform oscillator and one unison oscillator, but the real fun starts with the SPECTRAL generator which is basically a high quality additive oscillator.The list of features is expanded with a built-in trance gate effect, 2 drive stages, and a cool 8-slot modulation matrix.
