Tassman is a modular physical modelling software synth for Mac and PC. Put simply, you can play 1,000s of the most realistic sounds available, or simply create your own using the synth builder.

The Tassman is a modular instrument and sound design environment based on physical modelling. Whether you are new to the world of synths and sound design, or a seasoned industry professional, the Tassman offers virtually endless creative possibilities, in an intuitive, easy to use environment. Far from being an emulation of any one vintage synthesizer, the Tassman is in fact an ever expanding collection of instruments and sound design tools, sure to provide inspiration for virtually any project.
Physical Modeling is a uniquely powerful synthesis technique, which uses the laws of physics to reproduce the behaviour of an object. In other words the Tassman solves, in real time, mathematical equations describing how an object functions. It uses no sampling, it simply calculates the sound as you play in accordance to the controls it receives.

The Tassman provides you with a collection of 50 pre-patched instruments, and over 1000 presets right out of the box. One of version 3's most exciting new features is the browser with new drag and drop access.
