Sound sources and filters: The grain engine is joined by two virtual analog oscillators and a noise source, with dual filters that can run in serial or parallel.
Modulation: It includes four flexible envelope generators with up to 99 steps each, two flexible LFOs, sample and hold, and four assignable macros.
Effects: Built-in effects include chorus, stereo dual delay, and reverb.
Tuning and controllers: Quanta 2 supports MPE controllers, MTS-ESP microtuning, and TUN-format tuning tables.
