Element 2.0 Virtual Analog Synth

“Waves Element is a great synth that delivers both versatility and simplicity. No sub-menus – just a clear workflow and lots of knobs!”

“Waves Element is a powerful and creative two-oscillator synth with super-analog sound. Whether you program it yourself or use a preset, this synth is sure to inspire your creativity and be a huge part of your process!”

“Element is an amazing ‘out-of-the-box’ synth. It’s a tweaker’s dream, but it also has incredible preset sounds that you don’t have to do a thing to. It’s perfect for any style. The quality and texture make it a go-to synth when you need a sound to stand out a bit more or cut through the mix.”

“This is gonna be awesome on the new Dream Theater album. Within no more than two minutes of playing Element, I knew that it was really great! The quality of the oscillators and filters, along with the depth of the modulation parameters, make it really top-class.”

“Element is fantastic at recreating the beautiful warmth and depth you only get from classic analog gear. There are lots of inspiring presets, too, which have really helped us explore Element to its full potential.”

“Waves Element is a very pleasant and polyvalent synth! It emulates perfectly the warmth of an analog synth, which is a rare and very precious feature. As a fan of 80s sounds and synthesizers, I think Element is amazing. It’s a very tweakable tool that lets me bring into my productions the power and feeling of retro 80s synths.”

“Waves Element is a great synth for synth-pop. You can get anything from a great-sounding programmable ARP to a very funky special-sounding synth line. It’s also very easy to use – you can sketch up a song in minutes!”

“The Element synth is brilliantly simple and ridiculously powerful. Easy interface with fantastic sound. I personally love the ARP functions. One of my favorite software synths ever!”

“I really like the simplicity of Element’s one-page interface and the depth of the mod matrix. It's very easy to use and to understand at a glance. The sine mod, FM and phase mod on the oscillators let me easily dial in a wide range of timbres.”

“The Element synth gives me a world of sounds that range from the most tender pad to the most fantastically annoying distorted lead. Even for high profile projects, I almost always find myself going back to this one.”

“When I need warm analog sounds to fatten up a track, I reach for Waves Element. The layout is elegant and makes me feel like I'm tweaking an actual analog hardware synth. The sound is so rich you'll imagine you're feeling heat from the virtual circuitry!”

“Waves Element has become my go-to workhorse for nearly all keyboard applications, be it thick pads, uber-interesting arepeggiators, or ripping synth bass tones. I use it not only for production, but also to generate new ideas for songs... Love it!”

“Really cool instrument, like the old-style modular sequencers. I really like the way Element is set out. You can get deeply into it, but at the same time keep a good overall view of the patch you’re working on.”
