Kämpfer spent countless hours researching and experimenting with different algorithms, filter designs, and user interfaces. He drew inspiration from classic analog synthesizers, such as the Roland Jupiter-8, Korg MS-20, and Moog Minimoog, but also aimed to create something unique and innovative.
And so, the story of Dune 1 VST plugin serves as a testament to the power of creativity, innovation, and dedication to craft, inspiring future generations of music producers and developers to push the boundaries of what is possible in the world of electronic music production.
After months of intense development, Kämpfer released the first version of Dune 1 in 2007. The plugin was initially available for Windows and was compatible with popular digital audio workstations (DAWs) like Ableton Live, Cubase, and Logic Pro.
