Built around two layerable sample engines and 200+ expertly crafted presets — Papyrus delivers the spiritual, cinematic tones that defined an era of music.
Lush evolving pads
Deep, slow-moving textures inspired by the ambient keyscapes of Enigma and Vangelis. Perfect for cinematic beds and emotional intros.
Nature & world
Forest textures, tribal vocals, bamboo flutes, and ethnic percussion — the signature sound of Deep Forest and global cinematic scores.
Orchestral & voice
Strings, choirs, ethereal female voices, and solo leads. The emotional core of Enya, Clannad, and every 90s soundtrack you remember.
200+ factory presets,
ready to play.
A curated library covering every corner of the new-age sound palette. Each preset is production-ready — drop it in and it sits in the mix.
Two sample engineslayer or split
Engine A and Engine B can run in parallel to layer two sounds into one, or split across the keyboard for instant key-split performance rigs. Each engine has its own amp, filter, pitch envelopes, LFOs, and analog-modelled ladder filter.
Choose from 148 multisample maps — bass, drums, elements, guitar, keys, orchestra, pads, synths, and world sounds — and shape them independently.

Sequence up to 32 steps per pattern, synced to your DAW tempo, with independent modulation of velocity, note length, and pitch per step. Load factory patterns or save your own for instant recall.

A full effects rack built into the plugin — Reverb, Chorus/Flanger, Phaser, 4-band EQ, Compressor, Drive, Bit Crusher, Delay, and Stereo Expander. Swap any slot freely, reorder the chain, and shape the final sound without leaving the instrument.
From subtle cinematic ambience to gritty lo-fi textures — everything you need to finish the sound is one click away.

Low-pass, high-pass and band-pass modes with 12 or 24 dB/oct slope. The classic analog character that warms and glues everything.
Three tempo-synced LFOs
Dedicated LFOs for filter, volume, and pitch — each with its own shape and rate, locked to your DAW transport.

Independent Amp, Filter, and Pitch envelopes per engine for precise shaping of attack, sustain, and release.
