Hive was built for speed. An easy workflow, low cpu usage, and a single page interface mean you can create your tracks quickly. Being “fast and simple” doesn’t mean sacrificing sound quality or creative control. Hive is packed with features, controls, and enough flexibility to create stunning sounds. U-he Hive – Hive: light synthesizer, heavy sound. Sleek, streamlined and super fast. U-he ColourCopyis a virtual analogue effect inspired by classic bucket-brigade delays, but enhanced with modern features. We named our plugin “Color Copy” because it can provide the color of the classic bbd modules that people still like, but with a wider variety of colors. Color Copy started life as a small delay module called “Lyrebird” that we built into the Repro-1, but the sound was too good to be abandoned and turned into a separate plugin. Want to go even deeper? Many of Hive's factory wavetables are not samples, but ".uhm" files containing scripts written in a proprietary wavetable generation and manipulation language.U-he Bazille is a hybrid modular synthesizer that combines digital oscillators with analog-type filters and realistic effects. The flexibility of connecting modules offers a large sonic range: powerful bass and leads, subtle textures, jumpy beats, modular clutter and more. The instrument offers 4 digital oscillators with FM (frequency modulation), PD (phase distortion) and FR (fractal resonance), as well as 4 multi-mode analog filters, 4 built-in effects (delay, distortion, phaser, spring reverb), 2 LFOs, 4 ADS (S) R envelopes, 2 assignable oscillators, 8 x 16 step morph sequencer, sophisticated signal mixing modules, RM (ring modulation), AM (amplitude modulation). This feature opens up a second dimension of wavetable scanning, such as velocity crossfade or multisample support. The lower Position knob will crossfade between those 3. For instance, a wavetable with 30 frames can be split into 3 x 10 frames by setting Tables to 3. Wavetables can be split into multiple parts (up to 16), effectively creating a 2-dimensional oscillator. This panel also offers a Reverse option to flip the wavetable back to front, Cyclic mode for seamless wavetable cycling, and various real-time interpolation methods. You can manually select wavetables, modulate the wave position via the matrix, or even scan through them automatically using the envelope and loop options (which let you animate wavetables without the need for an extra modulation source).

Hive 2 includes Wavetables! These appear as multiple waveforms, and are controlled in the central hexagon.
