Anukari has released version 1.1 of its 3D Physics Synthesizer, adding resonating strings, bars, plates, membranes, tubes and bells alongside more than 1,000 factory presets.
Synthtopia reported that the most significant addition is a new Resonators object category simulating vibrating physical materials and structures. Resonators can be struck, bowed, rubbed or excited at different surface points and connected to existing mass-and-spring structures, letting users build more elaborate physical interactions such as a moving mass striking a resonating plate or a swinging structure interacting with a string.
A new Mouthpiece exciter adds breath-driven excitation with Jet, Reed, Lip and Free Reed models for wind and brass instrument behaviors. Existing Bow, Mallet and Plectrum exciters received additional physical models, including a Stick-Slip mode with simulated rosin, a Contact mode with felt-head bouncing and a Pick mode with release clicks and string scraping.
Version 1.1 also introduces Generate Shape and Duplicate in Pattern tools for constructing connected structures in grids, rings, spirals and helices. A Modulosphere modulation object moves through the 3D environment applying modulation within its radius and attracting physical bodies. New spring types, collision objects and rigid rods expand constructible interactions.
Anukari supports integration with external AI assistants through MCP, allowing compatible local assistants to create and edit presets. Version 1.1 is available for macOS, Windows and Linux at $74 USD.
