The Legend HZ from Synapse Audio is a powerful software synthesizer crafted in collaboration with acclaimed composer Hans Zimmer. Based on the original Legend synth, this version expands its capabilities with features tailored for modern scoring and music production while preserving the analog character of classic hardware.
Built with precision and depth, the Legend HZ VST Plugin delivers a sound and workflow shaped by both Zimmer’s cinematic expertise and Synapse Audio’s advanced modeling techniques.
Designed for Modern Scoring and Sound Design
The Synapse Audio Legend HZ introduces significant upgrades over its predecessor, designed to offer a more flexible and dynamic sound palette. These new features include:
-
Three additional virtual analog oscillators
-
Polyphony settings for up to 12 voices
-
A full modulation matrix
-
32-step sequencer
-
MSEG (Multi-Stage Envelope Generator)
-
An extended effects section
These enhancements make the Legend HZ a versatile tool, whether you’re creating ambient textures, rich basslines, or evolving cinematic sequences.
Hardware-Inspired Features
One of the highlights of the Legend HZ is its fixed filter bank, carefully modeled after Hans Zimmer’s own Vintage 914 Fixed Filter Bank. This rare hardware unit contributes to the synth’s signature tonal shaping abilities, giving producers access to a classic analog character within a digital environment.
A Soundbank Developed with Zimmer
Included with the plugin are 200 factory presets crafted by sound designer Kevin Schroeder in collaboration with Hans Zimmer himself. The presets cover a broad range of film-inspired patches—from atmospheric pads and leads to percussive sequences—providing immediate inspiration for composers and producers alike.
