Plastic Pop Ultra-Analog VA-3 Sound Bank from Applied Acoustics Systems brings 1980s synth character to your tracks with 127 presets designed by composer and sound designer Andre Ettema. Its collection spans arpeggios, basses, effects, leads, and pads, giving you a palette for synthpop, new wave, and retro-inspired productions. Explore 60 analog-style presets covering 1980–85 and 67 digital-style presets reflecting 1986–90, with sounds inspired by classics such as the Juno, DX7, Wavestation, and D-50. Guitar synth textures, TX81Z-style LatelyBass, and honky-tonk sounds add extra period flavor. Whether you’re building a pulsing bassline, layering atmospheric pads, or writing a bright melodic hook, Plastic Pop suits producers drawn to the sonic world of Duran Duran, Japan, and ABC. The included free AAS Player lets you play the bank without owning Ultra-Analog VA-3.
