SPECIAL INTRO PRICE: 50% OFF! LIMITED TIME ONLY.

Evoke a bewildering variety of polyphonic organ sounds directly from your guitar! Valkure (pronounced VAL-KUR-EE) transforms your raw strings into a big, multi-timbral instrument in realtime, and without resorting to guitar-to-MIDI trickery. Preserve the crucial dynamics of your playing --such as vibrato, bends, and slides --while maintaining thorough control over the final sound. Complete with a full range of organ parameters, extensive options, built-in rotary speaker emulation, virtual tube amplifier, and analog inspired effects, Valkure is a powerful addition to your guitar arsenal.

The unique organ module achieves guitar-to-organ transformation via proprietary signal processing algorithms, thereby retaining full polyphony. Valkure offers three different organ models that vary from mellow to aggressive. The main tone generator features nine registers (drawbars) that allow you to dial in overtones in a five octave range much like a tonewheel organ. In addition, two special "pedal" registers provide harmonically rich bass and sub bass tones that can work alone or in combination with the principal organ tones.

A built-in percussion generator inspired by "B" and "C" series organs is triggered by pick attack, and features switches for percussion length, level, as well as harmonic. Additional preferences allow you to modify these, as well as specify the sensitivity of the trigger detector. The Chorus/Vibrato unit is modeled after the famed scanner circuit, and features six modes.

The rotary speaker module offers three unique cabinets to choose from. Each cabinet features individually configurable virtual horn and drum drivers. The rotary unit provides many options, including micing angle, inertia, slow/fast speeds, additional room microphone, and more. The built-in amplifier is designed to complement the rotary speaker, and offers three different amp models that feature our newest tube emulation technology, as well as a full range of tonal controls.

The settings panel contains a wide variety of parameters for fine tuning the organ. These include variable attack to obtain an autogenerated volume "swell" effect, as well as thorough control over the organ's timbre and dynamics via Taper, Resonance, Body, Air, and Leakage parameters. Dedicated variable Boost controls for organ and pedal modules help add fullness and sizzle to the basic tones. Valkure is rounded out by the addition of analog-modeling effects, including tape delay, 3-band Baxandall style EQ, as well as built in compressor.

Besides working as both a standalone app and an AUv3 plugin, Valkur is also compatible with Apple Silicon Macs. It comes packaged with many professional features, including convenient MIDI learn for over 75 parameters, a powerful preset management system, 128 factory presets, and more.

This looks crazy mad, I wonder if it works feeding GeoShred or Riffler into it

Edit: yes, it does. That’s an instant 70’s machine

The envelope sounds a bit strange to me in the video. Real organ has an immediate attack often giving it a percussive sound. This seems to be missing that element. It's cool though and might be a useful tool.

Krupa

This looks fun, definitely one for the jam nights 🤘

Here is a demo.
Pay no attention to my awful guitar playing, but I thought it best to use a real guitar so you get an idea.

I appreciate any demo where the source is a real guitar. Thank you Doug!

Hmmm, cool, Yonac always has a way of getting a few more bucks out of me.

@filo01 Thanks, I did initially run it with Riffler Flow, and it did sound really good with that too.

Works well, I put a YouTube Short up using it with Geoshred as I don't have a guitar at hand currently. I'm no great Geoshredder but it did the job for sure

I just bought this last night and am trying now, on Mac, and it is awesome. Can’t believe it is $10. It even works with bass triggering it, although it’s much better in the higher register.
