Overview

Draw your waves, patch anything.

Zebra 3 is u-he's flagship synthesizer, built around four oscillators that morph between hand-drawn spline waveforms and render as wavetables or additive engines with up to 1024 partials. A modular Generator Rack lets you chain FM operators, noise, exciters and modal resonators freely, then shape the result through more than 100 filter responses. Two serial FX slots per oscillator and deep vector and scan mixing make it as much a sound-design environment as an instrument.
