Free Plug-ins nakst FluctusHere’s a first: For the first time in this series, we’re featuring a plug-in for the new CLAP standard introduced by u-he and Bitwig earlier this year. Fluctus is an FM synth with three operators, which modulate each other in a loop. It also offers a selection of built-in effects, including a saturator, filter, ping-pong delay, and phaser. The developer says that its simple structure makes Fluctus perfect for learning FM synthesis. More than 60 presets are included.

Fluctus is a Windows-only plug-in. It’s currently available only for the new CLAP plug-in standard and in the native FL Studio plug-in format. This means that your choice of DAWs is limited to Bitwig Studio 4.3 and FL Studio 9 or newer at the time of writing. More options will be added when additional developers begin to support the brand-new standard.
