With 48 voice polyphony, innovative performance features and hands-on controls, the Nord Wave 2 offers outstanding sonic possibilities with advanced layering and tweaking on the fly.

With 4 independent synthesizers in one the Nord Wave 2 offers exceptional possibilities for layering both classic waveforms and samples. Dedicated OLED displays for Program and Oscillator sections provide an excellent overview when shaping your sounds. The wide range of performance features and instantly tweakable hands-on effects makes the Wave 2 our most versatile performance synthesizer ever. The new Monitor mode displays your settings for Amp Envelope and Filters in the Program display for better overview and control.

The Wave 2 features a Program Layer section with faders for easily controlling the volume or pan for all 4 layer parts at once. The Layer section also provides handy features for quick layer focus, pan control, solo and multi-editing. The Split mode offers three split points providing up to 4 zones with optional crossfades. The flexible Hold functionality lets you latch and hold slots independently in the background while playing something else on top. The new Group feature allows you to group 2, 3 or 4 layers and lets them share the same Filter, Envelope, Arpeggiator, LFO and Effect-settings - perfect when creating complex multi-layered sounds that can be edited as one coherent sound.

The Oscillator section for each of the 4 layers offers 4 modes: Analog, Wavetable, FM and Samples and is easily browsed with our new direct category mode. The Oscillator Control features additional control over shape, sync or detune. The Wave 2 features a powerful multi-oscillator Unison effect with true Superwaves simultaneously generating hundreds of waveforms for extremely thick and fat sounds.

The Sample section has 1 GB of memory and comes loaded with a wide selection of quality samples including Strings, Brass, Guitars, Choirs, Chromatic Percussion as well as the exclusively licensed sounds of the legendary Mellotron and Chamberlin. All sounds are easily replaceable using the Nord Sound Manager. Adding your own custom sample instruments has never been easier thanks to the new streamlined Nord Sample Editor 3 for Mac and Windows that lets you map, loop and transfer samples to your Nord Wave 2 in a breeze.

The Filter section has 6 Filter types featuring classic 12 and 24 dB Low Pass, a High Pass, High Pass/Low Pass and a Band Pass filter, together with a stunning emulation of the transistor ladder filter from the legendary Mini. The unique modeling of these filters captures the true character and response of the classic analog instruments, allowing for flexible and precise sound design. The Filter section is equippied with full ADSR envelope.

The Wave 2 features a dedicated LFO for each layer with a choice of waveforms plus AD/AR Modulation Envelope with dedicated velocity setting and Invert mode. The LFO has several morphable parameters and the rate can be synchronized to the Master Clock.

The Amp Section is equipped with a full ADSR envelope featuring a powerful new Transient Attack mode for adding more punch to your sounds.

The Wave 2 features an extensive range of morphable parameters that can be controlled from four different sources: Velocity, Aftertouch, Wheel and Control Pedal. All morph sources can be quickly assigned to control multiple parameters simultaneously and the powerful Impulse Morph feature lets you instantly change any parameter of your sound. Instantly assign LFO, Oscillator Control or Filter to the Modulation Wheel.

The Nord Wave 2 is truly a rhythmical powerhouse with both a classic arpeggiator and a polyphonic mode with directly editable patterns. The Poly mode is a polyphonic Arpeggiator that will retrig all held keys either straight or patterned featuring different inversions for exciting harmonic variations. The brand new Gate mode chops your sound up in a rhythmic pattern with adjustable depth. The Pattern mode contains a wide selection of Rhythmic Patterns allows easy editing for creating your own custom patterns.

The Master Clock of the Wave 2 allows the LFO, Arpeggiator and various effects to be synchronized, either internally or by an external MIDI clock. With Master Clock synchronization you can synchronize 4 layers with individual patterns, all perfectly in sync with Delays and LFO's. A Tap Tempo allows you to easily tap to the tempo of a drummer or to playback tracks.

A separate Effect section for each layer featuring a great selection of instantly tweakable high quality stereo effects modelled after classic stomp boxes. Tremolo, Pan, Ring Modulator, Chorus, Ensemble and Vibe effects with Rate and Amount control.

New features include creative new Feedback options for adding Ensemble, Chorus, Vibe as well as HP/LP and BP filter in the Feedback loop. The Reverb section has five different Reverb sizes (Booth, Room, Stage, Hall and new Cathedral) for adding some ambience to your sounds, and the amount is now morphable. New features include Bright and Dark modes for either extended or reduced treble. The new Chorale effect adds a lush modulation effect.

Notes: The Nord Lead A1 is a 4-part multitimbral synth with a classic layout, extensive filter options and effects. With its powerful panel interface and pre-programmed modulation matrix, creating unique and exciting sounds is very inspirational and quick.

At the heart of the Lead A1 is our new analog modeling engine. Taking our virtual analog synthesis to the next level, this modeling recreates a total analog signal path with uncanny realism, and is capable of immense sonic variety. With 26-voice polyphony and four simultaneous synthesizer parts, the Lead A1 is a true synthesizer powerhouse that goes far beyond the current trend for limited capability analog reissues.

Fundamental to the design of the Lead A1 is a brand new simple yet sophisticated front panel interface. The design is in fact the result of requests from professional players - even the most experienced programmers - who need to create the perfect sound as quickly as possible for today's live or studio time demands. The Lead A1 allows easy patch creation and experimentation thanks to a new and unique oscillator section, pre-programmed modulation matrix, and simplified ADR envelopes. Dive in and create incredible patches far quicker than would normally be possible with a synthesizer of such power.

The Lead A1's new Oscillator section generates 47 different waveforms from classic analog to digital harmonic and inharmonic waves, whilst unique Oscillator Configuration Shortcuts make programming more immediate than ever. Start with a single Oscillator waveform select an Oscillator Configuration Shortcut - Pitch, Detune, Shape, Sync, Sub Mix, FM, AM or Noise - and use the Adjust knob to adjust the settings of the configuration. The end result is high speed programming without the need for the usual complexity of routing and patching, and with the opportunity for ready experimentation. A fast track to stunning sound design for both advanced and less experienced programmers.

The Lead A1's filter section features classic 12 and 24 dB Low Pass, a High Pass and a Band Pass filter, together with stunning emulations of the diode and ladder filters from the legendary Mini and the TB-303 synthesizers as used in the Lead 4. The Lead A1's modeling of these filters capture the true character and response of the originals, allowing supremely flexible and precise sound design. The filters are super-smooth with a warm analog character.

The Lead A1's effects section features two stunning brand new analog models of an Ensemble and Chorus, modeled on specific vintage synths and adding classic warmth and analog feel. Alongside these, choose from great-sounding Ring Modulation, Phaser, Flanger, or Drive per slot, and in addition a separate Delay and Reverb for each slot.

A classic Nord feature, the Morph function via Mod Wheel, Velocity or pedal, allows you to control multiple parameters of the Lead A1 simultaneously. Morph is exceptionally easy to set-up and use - just hold the Morph button and adjust any desired knob.

The Lead A1 features four separate Arpeggiators with Up/Down and Random modes and a 4-octave range. Any or all can be sync'd to the Lead A1's master clock.

The Master Clock function of the Lead A1 allows the LFO, Arpeggiator and Delay to be synchronized, either internally or slaved to external MIDI clock. A Tap Tempo button allows you to easily tap to the tempo of a drummer or to playback tracks.

Having four identical, equally powerful synthesizers at once opens breathtaking layering possibilities. The Split-mode gives you two 2 slots on each side of the split. A flexible Hold functionality lets you latch and hold slots independently in the background while playing something else on top.

New in the Lead A1 is the Multi-Focus Mode that allows editing and control of all four slots simultaneously. Save this mode as part of a Performance and you have live realtime control over all four slots of the Lead A1.

The Lead A1 features four independent audio outputs with the ability to route each slot to a different output. Plus control of Pan via the front panel knob is a welcome new addition in the Lead A1.

Unique to the Nord Lead A1 is the new 'Like' function, a simple and brilliant practical feature to use during patch creation. When programming a patch it's often not clear if it's yet perfect. Now with the Lead A1 you can simply 'Like' what you've done into a temporary location and continue editing. You can Like up to 50 variations, with the ability to scroll between them to compare your favourites or go back to a specific Liked version to edit in a different way. When you're ready, save your favourite patch or patches to the Lead A1's memory.

A popular feature of the Lead 4, the Mutator function allows variations of a patch to be created by adjusting one, some, or all elements of a patch by set percentages. There's also a wild Randomize mode to create an entirely new patch with all parameters randomized.

A newly designed "Fat-As-Fat-Can-Be" Unison Mode let's the Lead A1 challenge any vintage analog instrument.

Notes: Welcome to the world of sound of LYRA-8, the unique organismic analogue synthesiser designed by Vlad Kreimer. "Organismic" means that LYRA uses some principles that lie in the base of living organisms. The way how LYRA's modules interacting between each other and the behaviour of the instrument resembles a live conversation.

LYRA-8 is based on eight generators, which will be referred to as voices. Their design is not like a traditional subtractive synthesis VCO. Instead of having a linear or logarithmic dependency on control voltage, they resemble the tone generators in old electric organs. Hence the use of the term "voices" instead of "VCOs". Lyra uses non-linearity a lot, and the voices are constructed in such a way that allows for non-linearity to express itself.

The voices are divided into four pairs (12, 34, 56, 78). All the pairs are divided in two groups, with two pairs in each (1234, 5678), creating tree-like structure.

The voices can function either in an electric organ mode or in an FM synthesis mode with each of the voices and its envelope acting as a separate FM operator. The voice's impact on FM synthesis will decrease along with the decay of its envelope.

LYRA-8 also has the next blocks:

The HYPER LFO is a complex low-frequency generator, whose waveform is synthesized from two simple LFOs by summation or multiplication of their frequencies. It also has a sync mode. The LFO can modulate the selected pairs of voices and the MOD DELAY.

The MOD DELAY consists of two lines of delay with cross-feedback and a special architecture that enables resonance between the two lines. Each line's delay time can be individually modulated from various sources, including external ones. The delay has a unique possibility of self-modulation where the output signal modulates the delay sample rate, creating cool effects.

The DISTORTION is last in the chain, after the delay. It enables the delay to also influence the distortion.

For all its experimental character, LYRA is a professional instrument. Its output dynamics and frequency response are balanced and ready for a live performance or studio recording without any additional processing.

Notes: EGL-1 is a desktop analogue synthesiser that is ideal for a variety of duties. The unit's sub-oscillator can be configured to determine the emitted waveform and decays when the Push switch is pressed. There are four LFOs routed to the primary VCO for bountiful modulation capabilities. The VCO itself is routed through a boost circuit for a some extra flair that's sure to punish listeners in all the right ways.

EGL-1 Features

VCO routed through boost circuit
4 LFOs provide ample modulation possibilities
Integrated sub-oscillator
Push switch causes the sub-oscillator to decay
Two types of modulation can be applied to the MAIN VCO (oscillator).

The bottom stage mixes four LFOs and allows you to adjust the input level to the MAIN VCO with the level.

The middle stage allows you to input a WAVE to the SUB OSC (another oscillator) with adjustable rise and fall of the oscillator, which can then be fed into the MAIN VCO.

The push-button in the top right-hand corner rapidly decays the power of the SUB OSC as long as it is pressed. While it decays, it has an effect on the sound of the MAIN VCO.

The MAIN VCO output also has an output circuit to make the sound more powerful.

The EGL-1 operates from a 9V centre-minus or battery. Neither is included.

Notes: It is powered by a center negative DC 9V adapter or a single 9V battery.

It contains two VCOs (oscillators) with a wide range.

The SUB oscillator has a different frequency and waveform, and is input to the main, respectively. Each of them has a range switch, so it works like an LFO under the switch. The color of the range switch (white, black) corresponds to the color of the SUB.1 and SUB.2 on-off switches next to the FREQ knob of the main oscillator.

When the WAVE switch is turned on, the WAVE knob is activated, and the SUB OSCILLATOR.1 and 2 are shaken.

The main VCO×2 is mixed and fed into the strain + filter circuit. This special filter has a FREQ knob and a TUNE knob. The TUNE knob powerfully amplifies the input signal while also tracking specific pronunciations.

The filter is a circuit that has been fine-tuned so that it can very effectively enhance the bass and treble of this input signal.

Unlike other switches, the noise-on switch moves sideways, left (VCO.1), middle (OFF), and right (VCO.2). They are populated in VCO.1 and 2, respectively.

It is a noise machine that can output a very strong signal that generates a variety of noise sounds.

This analogue synth runs on DC9V negative center or a 9V battery.

The main 2 VCOs can receive 2 oscillators and noise generator inside and go to 2 different filters.

2 oscillators can be tuned with each two FREQ. knobs and controlled with the wave knob.

RED switch is for wave knob working.

Black and White for tone of oscillators

An evolution of the monophonic Typhon synth concept, the Artemis applies similar interface design to a six-voice analogue synth module with Sinevibes digital effects. Lots of power and typically classy Dreadbox sound.

Supplier's Notes:
Artemis is a unique analogue polysynth with a UI inspired by Dreadbox's award-winning Typhon synthesizer. It builds on Typhon's innovative concepts, adding six voices of polyphony, powerful modulation capabilities, stereo FX, voice spreading, and much more!

From classic polysynth tones to aggressive modern sounds and everything in between, Artemis has a wealth of raw synthesis and modulation capabilities to explore.

At its core, Artemis features a fully analogue architecture, based on the smart oscillator implementation found in both the Typhon and the Murmux Adept, allowing effortless transitions between multiple waveforms, mix settings, glide, FM, and more.

These VCOs are paired with Dreadbox's signature filter topology, offering classic 12dB or 24dB per octave low-pass modes, as well as a standalone resonant high-pass filter. The low-pass filter includes dedicated filter frequency FM control for dialling in edgier, modern tones.

Two multi-mode LFOs enhance the modulation possibilities: LFO 1 offers a unique fade-in parameter, while LFO 2 includes XMOD (cross-modulation) control for chaotic, brash textures. Each LFO has multiple waveforms and can modulate pitch, filter cutoff, VCO waveform, pulse width, and more.

This analogue powerhouse is complemented by a suite of world-class FX from Sinevibes, who previously collaborated with Dreadbox on Typhon's FX. With reverb, delay, modulation effects, master distortion, and more, Artemis delivers an extra dimension to your sounds.

Derived from the excellent Lyra-8, the Lyra-4 features a similar 'organismic' approach to synthesis. Four-voice non-linear architecture offers unique tones in a compact, portable format.

Supplier's Notes:
Introducing the revived version of LYRA-4 organismic synthesiser, the younger sister of the famous LYRA-8. "Organismic" means that LYRA uses some principles that lie in the base of living organisms. The way how LYRA's modules interacting between each other and the behaviour of the instrument resembles a live conversation. It's smaller and weighs less but is equally rugged in design, and still packs a lot of punch. This makes it easy to fit in a backpack and perfect for taking the LYRA sound on the road. And playing two LYRA-4s can actually sound very different than just one LYRA-8.

LYRA-4 is based on four generators, which will be referred to as voices. Their design is not like a traditional subtractive synthesis VCO. Instead of having a linear or logarithmic dependency on control voltage, they resemble the tone generators in old electric organs. Hence the use of the term "voices" instead of "VCOs".

The voices are divided into two pairs (12, 34), creating tree-like structure.

The voices can function either in an electric organ mode or in an FM synthesis mode with each of the voices and its envelope acting as a separate FM operator. The voice's impact on FM synthesis will decrease along with the decay of its envelope.

LYRA-4 also has the next blocks:

The HYPER LFO is a complex low-frequency generator, whose waveform is synthesized from two simple LFOs by summation or multiplication of their frequencies. It also has a sync mode. The LFO can modulate the selected pairs of voices and the MOD DELAY.

The MOD DELAY consists of delay with feedback. The delay has a unique possibility of self-modulation where the output signal modulates the delay sample rate, creating cool effects.

The DISTORTION is last in the chain, after the delay. It enables the delay to also influence the distortion.

Future Retro's unique modern take on vector synthesis takes full advantage of an impressive hybrid synth engine. Digital oscillators, ring modulation and complex envelopes meet a multi-mode analogue filter with paraphonic capabilities. Quirky and flexible.

Supplier's Notes:
The Vectra is a unique hybrid synthesizer with a flexible architecture that allows many different forms of synthesis to be realized. It's the best of both worlds... The Vectra utilizes digital oscillators, ring modulators, noise sources, vector mixer, LFO's, complex envelopes, and modulation routings providing many capabilities that would be very difficult to produce with analogue circuitry alone. This allows for accurate tuning, repeatability of complex patches, and patch storage. The Vectra also provides a multi-mode analogue filter, VCA, and final output, as these provide the best sonic qualities.

The Vectra includes a powerful and fun sequencer and arpeggiator, with many new capabilities. Although the Vectra is a self contained instrument, MIDI can be used to interface with other devices.

The Vectra provides four oscillators, white and pink noise sources, four ring modulators, a four-channel mixer, five LFO's, six morphing envelopes, six primary multimode analogue filter types, a main analogue VCA, and numerous internal modulation routings and VCA's controlling modulation amounts.

It really is like having a powerful self-contained semi-modular synthesizer with approximately 500 internal signal routings, and around 256 storable sound parameters.

The synthesizer architecture is designed to allow the greatest flexibility in recreating multiple synthesis techniques of the past while introducing several new innovations. The sound section has been inspired by features of the greatest synthesizers ever made, while not focusing specifically on recreating any instrument in particular. The Vectra is in fact it's own unique self-contained instrument.

The oscillators are digital as this provides the highest degree of tuning stability, while allowing both virtual analogue and digital waveform generations. With features like oscillator Sync, PWM, the new waveform Phase Slice, and Fade features, independent glide times per oscillator, constant beat detuning, and paraphonic voice modes, not to mention FM, AM, ring-modulation, and dedicated LFO's, envelopes, and VCA's per oscillator really make these oscillators a power house.

The four-channel mixer is unique in that it provides an even balance when mixing multiple sources, either manually with the joystick, or applying automated vector mixing, or mixer modulation.

Updated version of the ground-breaking synth, sampler and sequencer. Better than ever, with legendary sound quality and portability.

Supplier's Notes:
The beauty of evolution.

Louder, thinner and 100 times better.

Introducing the all new OP-1 field. Injected with more than a decade of ideas, refinements and improvements. Just to mention a few: stereo throughout the whole signal chain, Bluetooth MIDI, USB type-C, a new speaker system with a passive driver for detailed, fat and loud sound, a massive 24 hour battery life, multiple tapes and recording formats, new great sounding reverb and the 'dimension' synth engine, an all glass, flush, high resolution display. The graphics have also been meticulously reworked, screen by screen.

Reworked, refined, reborn.

Think of OP-1 field as the natural continuation of its predecessor. Updated with the latest technology, improved design and finely tuned with professional musicians, recording artists and sound designers in mind. Higher quality in all aspects, from its circuitry to connectivity and flexibility, it's tailor made for professionals in the field.

The new stereo sample engine is just one of the features that takes the OP-1 field to a higher level. With increased sampling time up to 20 seconds and dual layer mode for instant mixing of the a and b channels or via an assigned LFO.

Four new recording formats: Studio 4-track, vintage 4-track, porta and disc mini.
All with their own unique characteristics and graphics. Now with multiple tapes or discs, up to 8 in total.

If it feels thinner, it is.

By lowering the aluminium body around the keyboard, the new OP-1 field feels lighter, thinner and more precise. with 2k moulding Teenage Engineering have also managed to fit a dual 2.4 GHz antenna system inside the aluminium body.

The back is warm, velcro and bass.

Two soft velcro rings have been added on the back for fastening covers and accessories. Perhaps you want to stick your op-1 field on top of your full size keyboard, or slap it on a guitar? Use the included adhesive looped back and start experimenting. On the right you'll find an additional passive loudspeaker for hugely improved bass. And for a 'no-more-cold-metal-on-your-lap' experience, the aluminium body has been folded in a warm, soft touch, hard cover.

The first accessory out using the velcro rings is the Bill Amberg leather wrap that attaches to the back and wraps around the op-1 field and locks around the encoders.

Dimensions: 28.8 cm x 10.2 cm x 2.9 cm

Hands-on hardware synth goodness in a boutique desktop format, feauting an eight-voice digital supersaw engine and four-pole filter. Built-in delay, reverb, chorus and freeze effects can be used to process external signals.

Supplier's Notes:
Design philosophy

Knob-For-Knob Functionality:

Artium Instruments are committed to knob-for-knob functionality. Every feature of The Swarm is directly mapped to a knob, button, switch, or jack, ensuring effortless control. There's no need for menu-diving or complicated sequences of button presses to access features; everything is conveniently accessible at your fingertips.

Curated, Onboard Effects:

With over a decade of experience in the effects industry, Artium have carefully curated a selection of effects that seamlessly complement the synth core. Unique to The Swarm is its capability to use the onboard effects with other equipment, allowing you to route external audio through the inputs on the back.

Plug and Play Functionality:

The Swarm utilizes a USB-C MIDI host for simplicity and ease of use. Most modern class-compliant MIDI controllers with USB functionality should plug in and work immediately with zero setup. Additionally, The Swarm provides power to your controller, streamlining your setup process. For older controllers that only have DIN connections, a USB to DIN converter can be used to ensure compatibility. (These converters typically cost $10-20)

Quality Craftsmanship, Intentional Design:

Artium have invested considerable thought into crafting the overall feel of the instrument. From the layout of the knobs to the choice of colours, artwork, and the weight of the enclosure, every detail has been considered. These details matter because the connection a user forms with a piece of gear is almost as crucial in the creative process as the sounds it produces. A lot of love and passion has been poured into every aspect of The Swarm, from its sonic capabilities to its design aesthetics.

Open Source Platform:

Artium desktop synths use an open source platform known as Axoloti or Ksoloti for development and implementation of its products.

Synth core

Oscillator:

The Swarm features a SuperSaw oscillator with 8-note polyphony. This oscillator is composed of seven individual saw waves stacked on top of each other. The magic unfolds when you detune the waveforms by applying a frequency offset, resulting in one of the most massive synth sounds available.

Control Modes:

The Swarm employs this massive sound through two distinct control modes: Polyphonic Mode and Arpeggiator Mode. In Polyphonic Mode, you can play up to eight notes simultaneously, exploring the full range of polyphony. Arpeggiator Mode offers a comprehensive monophonic arpeggiator, automatically sequencing held notes in a variety of patterns, enhancing your creative possibilities.

More Features & Controls:

To shape the sound further The Swarm has a 4 Pole Low Pass Filter with a subtle resonance as well as a simple attack and release envelope.

Onboard effects

All onboard effects can be used with other music equipment. Simply plug an external audio source into the rear input jacks, and The Swarm will seamlessly mix the external audio with its synth core, allowing for simultaneous processing of both signals.

Freeze:

By pressing the touchpad on the right, The Swarm records a 1000ms sample of the current audio. It then layers, and smears the sample, creating an infinite drone frozen in time-a perfect foundation for layering additional notes. The freeze effect facilitates overdubbing, and pressing the touchpad with the freeze knob at its minimum setting erases the memory, allowing the device to capture a fresh sample.

Delay:

The Swarm's delay is a digital delay with a subtle touch of warmth. The delay length synchronizes with the arpeggiator clock, which can be adjusted manually using the clock knob or via the tap tempo touchpad on the left. Additionally, the delay features a multiplier knob, offering a range of unique subdivisions that complement the synced arpeggiator, including quarter notes, dotted eighths, eighths, and triplets.

Reverb:

The reverb effect in The Swarm strives to enhance the natural body and ambience of the synth core without overshadowing it. Its stereo reverb algorithm is controlled by a single knob, which adjusts both the mix and decay simultaneously. This versatile control allows you to seamlessly transition from realistic room or hall effects to expansive cathedral-like soundscapes, offering a wide range of atmospheric possibilities.

Chorus:

The SuperSaw oscillator practically demands to be paired with a chorus effect. The Swarm employs a stereo 4-voice chorus effect alongside a gradually shifting LFO, aiming to craft dimensionality without becoming nauseating.

Controls

Synth core:

Detune - Detunes SuperSaw oscillator
Filter - Cutoff frequency of the filter

Notes: The Chromaplane is an instrument created in collaboration between KOMA Elektronik & Passepartout Duo.

The Chromaplane is played using two electromagnetic pickup coils, that are moved over its surface to listen to a cloud of electromagnetic fields produced by the instrument.These ten fields are represented by small indicators on the instrument's surface.

The Chromaplane is fully polyphonic, meaning that all ten of the instrument's analogue square wave oscillators are always sounding - this makes the instrument ideal for both sculpting complex drones, and playing agile melodies. Each field can be tuned using its corresponding adjustment screw. The oscillators are additionally organized into three rows, each with a switch that drops that row's pitch one octave.

The timbre of the Chromaplane can be further shaped using its internal VCF, a 4-pole low pass filter that darkens the instrument's sound and is also modulated by the internal audio signal, allowing for rich harmonic sounds and timbres reminiscent of frequency modulation. A lo-fi delay/echo effect with CV controlled time adds a sense of ambiance and rhythmicity to the dry signal's output.

The Chromaplane also features an external audio input, allowing the player to route other sounds to one electromagnetic field on the instrument's surface. The instrument's envelope output can also be used to modulate parameters on the instrument, or on other hardware synthesizers.

The Chromaplane includes: The Chromaplane itself, 2 pickup coils, 1 tuning screwdriver, 1 power adapter that works worldwide, 1 manual

Welcome to the world of sound of LYRA-8, the unique organismic analogue synthesiser designed by Vlad Kreimer. "Organismic" means that LYRA uses some principles that lie in the base of living organisms. The way how LYRA's modules interacting between each other and the behaviour of the instrument resembles a live conversation.

LYRA-8 is based on eight generators, which will be referred to as voices. Their design is not like a traditional subtractive synthesis VCO. Instead of having a linear or logarithmic dependency on control voltage, they resemble the tone generators in old electric organs. Hence the use of the term "voices" instead of "VCOs". Lyra uses non-linearity a lot, and the voices are constructed in such a way that allows for non-linearity to express itself.

The voices are divided into four pairs (12, 34, 56, 78). All the pairs are divided in two groups, with two pairs in each (1234, 5678), creating tree-like structure.

The voices can function either in an electric organ mode or in an FM synthesis mode with each of the voices and its envelope acting as a separate FM operator. The voice's impact on FM synthesis will decrease along with the decay of its envelope.

LYRA-8 also has the next blocks:

The HYPER LFO is a complex low-frequency generator, whose waveform is synthesized from two simple LFOs by summation or multiplication of their frequencies. It also has a sync mode. The LFO can modulate the selected pairs of voices and the MOD DELAY.

The MOD DELAY consists of two lines of delay with cross-feedback and a special architecture that enables resonance between the two lines. Each line's delay time can be individually modulated from various sources, including external ones. The delay has a unique possibility of self-modulation where the output signal modulates the delay sample rate, creating cool effects.

The DISTORTION is last in the chain, after the delay. It enables the delay to also influence the distortion.

For all its experimental character, LYRA is a professional instrument. Its output dynamics and frequency response are balanced and ready for a live performance or studio recording without any additional processing.

Max output voltage: 2 v 0-to-peak
Output connector: mono 6.3 mm TS or TRS (balanced) jack

Notes: No-nonsense analogue business here from JMT. Square wave VCO and sub-oscillators can be morphed and wave folded to create unique timbres.

Supplier's Notes:
The JMT Synth EWG is a desktop analog synthesiser with a wide-ranging VCO and two reconfigurable sub-oscillators that emit square waves, ideal for thick bass tones. Two adjacent knobs can control the pulse of the square waves, allowing for a wide range of tones and timbres. Two reduce knobs govern the leve of each sub-oscillator, allowing the user to blend the tones to their taste. The EWG-1 is powered by a DC9V center negative adapter or a single 9V battery.

Notes: Super affordable but fun analogue synth, the LORE does two-oscillator FM synthesis to create experimental tones, drones and textures. Power via USB-C, output over 3.5mm jack socket.

Supplier's notes:
Lore takes two of the lush all-analogue oscillators from OVUM, and adds frequency modulation to unlock a wild new range of sounds. It's designed for exploring tones, drones, and frequency modulated textures. Each voice is made of an independently controlled triangle-core oscillators, with separate control for volume, pitch, and can be crossfaded between a bright square wave and a crisp triangle wave.

Lore is frequency modulation. The left oscillator can be sent to the audio output, where it will create harmony or dissonance with the right oscillator, or it can be switched to modulate the frequency of the right oscillator. This is a simplified and analog version of the kind of FM synthesis you'll find in digital synthesizers like the DX7 and it's descendants. It's hand-built from 100% analog circuitry, with no digital components, screens, quantization, or key-combinations to memorize - everything is immediate and at your fingertips.

Lore is enclosed in a sturdy transparent-green petroleum-free bioplastic case. It has a USB-C port for power, and a single 3.5mm audio output jack for headphones or line-out to connect to an amplifier, audio interface, or effects.

To reduce waste, by default Lore comes with just the instrument and a USB to USB-C power cable. If you don't have a spare USB power supply, they can be added to your purchase at checkout. Lore is portable, but does not contain a battery. It can be powered by any USB powerbank.

Notes: The UNVO-1b powered by a centre negative DC 9V adapter or a single 9V battery.

It also contains two VCOs (oscillators) with a wide range.

The frequency and waveform of the SUB oscillator are changed, and they are input to the main, respectively. Each of them has a range switch, so it works like an LFO under the switch. The colour of the range switch (white, black) corresponds to the colour of the SUB.1 and SUB.2 on-off switches next to the FREQ knob of the main oscillator.

When the WAVE switch is turned on, the WAVE knob is activated, and the SUB OSCILLATOR.1 and 2 are shaken.

The main VCO×2 is mixed and fed into the strain + filter circuit. This special filter has a FREQ knob and a TUNE knob. The TUNE knob powerfully amplifies the input signal while also tracking specific pronunciations.

The filter is a circuit that has been fine-tuned so that it can very effectively enhance the bass and treble of this input signal.

Unlike other switches, the noise-on switch moves sideways, left (VCO.1), middle (OFF), and right (VCO.2). They are populated in VCO.1 and 2, respectively.

The UNVO-1b is a noise machine that can output a very strong signal that generates a variety of noise sounds.

The black painted aluminium die-cast case is painted with a black matte paint with a laser and scraped to make letters.

This analogue synth runs on DC9V negative centre or a 9V battery.

The main 2 VCOs can receive 2 oscillators and noise generator inside and go to 2 different filters.

2 oscillators can be tuned with each two FREQ. knobs and controlled with the wave knob.

RED switch is for wave knob working.
Black and White for tone of oscillators

Notes: Part of JMT's no-frills synth range, the SNB-2b offers a single voltage-controlled oscillator with three sub-oscillators, allowing you to blend and distort harmonics to create thick, juicy tones.

Supplier's Notes:
The SNB-2b is powered by a centre negative DC 9V adapter or a single 9V battery.

The SNB-2b is a noisy analogue synth oscillator with a distortion function that can emphasize HI, MID, and LO.

The oscillator can be input to the MAIN VCO with a wide range, and the three complex input SUB oscillators can be adjusted at LEVEL and input to the MAIN VCO.

Each of the three SUB oscillators is designed to affect each other, so a wide range of settings are possible with subtle knob position combinations.

The three oscillators are directly input to the waveform of the MAIN VCO, and different waveform changes can be added by adjusting the input level with the LEVEL knob.

It is a model that expands the variety of sounds by fine-tuning the knob and emphasizing the high, mid, and low frequencies of various tones such as noisy dense sounds and intermittent sounds.

From CV IN, you can input CV OUT (sequencer, analogue synth, modular synth) of other equipment and change the MAIN VCO. Since it is a 6.5mm jack, please use a conversion plug when using a 3.5mm cable.

Runs on DC9V negative centre or a 9V battery.

3 sub oscillator effect each other go to main VCO with LEVEL knob.

The main VCO goes to DISTORTION circuit with HI,MID,LO knobs.

The SNB-2b makes a variety of sounds.

CV IN is for VCO pitch. It accepts+-9V voltages.

Notes: Quirky synth fun from JMT, the NDE-1 is based around two oscillators, sample and hold, noise generator and a four-pole low-pass filter. Generate random tones, control via a sequencer or process external audio.

Supplier's Notes:
This model consists of two VCOs (oscillators), SAMPLE & HOLD, noise generator, low-pass filter, LFO, VCA, and envelope generator to create a powerful sound.

By itself, a wide range of sounds can be created, including random and regular intermittent sounds, mute timing, and fine-tuning of levels.

If you input sounds from other equipment through the A IN, you can apply a variety of filters, LFOs that oscillate the filters, and mutes to the input sounds in parallel with the built-in oscillator.

The variable range is wide enough to produce a variety of sounds. The filter is a 4-pole filter that works very smoothly, and external audio can be input via A IN.

You can also use it with a sequencer to create even more sounds.

Notes: Nice experimental stuff from JMT. Dual oscillators and noise circuits interact to create unique drones, soundscapes and synth tones. Knobby front panel gives plenty of hands-on control.

Supplier's Notes:
Two VCOs with different circuit configurations are used, each with two types of waveform conversion circuits, one of which is a noise synthesis circuit created by the VCO input, to design complex interactions.

The output is input to a sustain circuit, a delay, via a distortion circuit that emphasizes bass, mid, and treble.

4 mixed CV/GATE sends the gate to the sustain circuit at the timing when it is mixed with the four rate knobs, and pronounces it at the timing of the gate like a drum synth. . The sustain length can be set with a knob. At the same time, the CV is also sent to the two VCOs (adjusted with the LV knob). The delay can be turned on and off with a switch.

Fine-tuning the numerical values of the circuit components and fine-tuning the knobs can obtain not only intense distortion but also delicately varied sounds.

CV IN is input to the VCO.

It is driven by a center minus DC 9V adaptor. A 12 V DC adapter can also be used for the power supply.

Increasing the voltage changes the range and setting range. Up to 12V

Two VCOs with different circuit configurations, each with two different waveform conversion circuits, one with a noise synthesis circuit created by the VCO input, a very complex interaction is designed.

The output is routed to the sustain circuit and delay via a distortion circuit that emphasizes lows, mids, and highs. 4 MIXED CV/GATE sends GATE to the SUSUTAIN circuit at the timing mixed by the 4 RATE knobs to produce a GATE timing like a drum synthesizer. Sustain can be set with the knob. At the same time, CV is sent to the two VCOs (adjustable with the LV knob) by this circuit.

Delay can be turned on and off with a switch.

Fine tuning of the values of the circuit components and fine adjustment of the knobs allows you to obtain not only intense distortion but also subtle variations. cv in is input to the VCO.

It is powered by a center-minus DC 9V - DC12V adapter.

A 12 VDC adapter can also be used for power supply.

Increasing the voltage (up to 12 V ) changes the sound range and setting range.

The MIDI and Eurorack compatibility and clock synchronisation options make sure it can be played in every setting. The IMPLEXUS is built to last. It has metal shaft potentiometers, an aluminium casing with scratch and solvent resistant graphics and an internal power supply (no adapter!). The IMPLEXUS is a characteristic, unique and complete musical instrument.

"West-Coast"

The characteristic sound of the IMPLEXUS comes from shaping and folding a sinewave, resulting in a complex waveform. The shaping and folding can be modulated at audio-rate in a single knob turn utilizing the second generator. Instead of subtracting you will be adding harmonics. After tweaking for a while you will be surprised to find out you didn't touch the filter... yet.

Unique filter design

The IMPLEXUS offers a 12dB/oct VCF with a unique analogue topology. This filter offers a lowpass and highpass mode. For cutoff modulation there is an envelope amount control with polarizer and a CV input on the back of the IMPLEXUS. There is an input mixer that has amplitude control over three inputs: complex generator, basic generator and the sub-oscillator.

Syncable delay

The IMPLEXUS has a stereo digital delay with dry/wet, delay-time and feedback control. There is a subtle modulation difference between the left and right channels to create a wide stereo image.
The delay can be synchronized to MIDI and external (modular) clock sources. Also the delay can be synchronized to Tap Tempo. For clock synchronization there are five divisions: 1/1 3/4 1/2 1/3 1/4.

Global pitch controls

The IMPLEXUS has a global pitch control section offering control over glide rate and pitch envelope amount. There is a dedicated vibrato LFO with manual control over amount and frequency.

Syncable LFO's

The IMPLEXUS has two LFO's with a variety of waveforms and multiple modulation destinations. The LFO's offer a wide range of 0.01 - 100Hz and can be BPM synced to MIDI and external clock. The LFO's can also be synchronized to Tap Tempo and can even be set in five different divisions.

Connections

The IMPLEXUS offers a 1/4" stereo balanced output. In addition to that there is a stereo headphone output with dedicated volume control.
There is standard MIDI input and thru over DIN and USB. Also there is a eurorack compatible patchbay on the back. This extends the sound and modulation possibilities of the IMPLEXUS even more!

Built in VCO tuner

There is a strobe tuner with 3 LED's on board, which lets you tune both the Complex and the Basic generator to a perfect "A" within just a couple of seconds.

A unique project by a small company

Majella Audio is a small company, and because of that, Majella Audio do most of the design and development themselves. The amount of hard work and effort that went into this project is what makes the IMPLEXUS a unique piece of gear with outstanding build quality. Majella Audio have created a few "How its made" videos to give you an insight into the design and development of the IMPLEXUS, which are viewable on their web page.

Notes: Inspired by the RSF Polykobol, the mighty Kijimi is a serious analogue synth, packing eight voices of two-VCO architecture and SSI2140-based filters. MK2 upgrade features more powerful firmware, extensive LFO options and neat wooden end panels.

Supplier's Notes:
KIJIMI MK2 is crafted to be one of the most powerful polysynths ever built, all behind intuitive front-panel controls, from its continuous timbral variation to its exhaustive modulation matrix. The Black Corporation original features planetary-sized analog sound, inspired by the best of rare and classic synths, but unique to our own parallel galaxy.

Continuous analogue timbral control

Instead of fixed waveforms, KIJIMI's voltage-controlled oscillators can morph continuously through waveform types. Sine, triangle, sawtooth, and variable pulse waves are smoothly variable, with pulse width as you turn to the far right. It's a scheme that provides unique, independent timbral over each of the eight voices.

Deep 8-voice architecture

Each of KIJIMI 's 8 voices features 2 analogue oscillators each with a square sub-bass oscillator, for buttery timbres with extensive sound design options. The sub-oscillator produces an octave lower than the combined VCO1 and VCO2 outputs, meaning you can tune two sub-pitches. Hard sync is available in VCO sync and VCO1->2 and 2->1 configurations for maximum flexibility. There's also a noise source for adding bite and percussion components. A rich lowpass filter is built around the legendary 2140 chip and the ability to frequency-modulate it via VCO2, creates a full range of sounds from metallic and aggressive to subtle. Both filter cutoff and resonance are available as modulation destinations.

Unique envelope functionality with dedicated controls

Two ADSR envelopes come with independent rate multipliers, keyboard control of attack rate, and versatile routing. Engage the CYCLE button for a cycling trapezoidal mode, similar to that on vintage instruments like the EMS Synthi. Few polysynths offer this level of detailed control, let alone with front-panel controlsino menu diving needed.

Endless modulation programmability

Modulation possibilities set the KIJIMI apart from other polysynths. Two LFOs can be routed independently to up to eight destinations, directly on front-panel buttons, controlling frequency and waveform modulation, sub-oscillator amount, filter cutoff and frequency, and amplitude modulation. Each LFO includes multiple waveform options (sine, triangle, saw, ramp, square, random) and separate attack and decay knobs in addition to rate. ADSR2 sports four independent destinations, also via front-panel push buttons and knobs. Even velocity and aftertouch get their own dedicated control section for applying velocity or aftertouch to each parameter (LFO rate, waveform morph, sub, pitch bend, and VCA). Dedicated knobs let you apply your aftertouch and poly-aftertouch, to taste, right where you want it. You'll rarely use the menus, and when you do, it'll only be to unlock even more advanced functionality (like multiple LFO features!). KIJIMI is a rare case of fusing straightforward one-control-per-feature design with unrestricted possibilities.

Full MIDI and expressive control, tuning support

Combine all the elements, and KIJIMI is an instrument that's playable like no other. Each note you play separately triggers modulation, independently on each voice, with full control via aftertouch. Add in full MIDI control, complete MIDI polyphonic expression (MPE) support, advanced tuning capabilities (including microtuning via SCALA and 128 memory locations for tuning settings), and velocity polyphonic aftertouch, each with up to six more destinations with its own bipolar settings. KIJIMI finally brings a synthesizer architecture that can unlock the possibilities of your expressive controller of choice.

Updated package

The MK2 version of KIJIMI includes all the acclaimed sonic power and character of its predecessor, in an improved package. Updated firmware now includes the ability to assign different LFO settings (rate, waveform, envelope, and depth) to each individual destination. In addition to 128 factory and 1152 user presets, we've included user banks by Mathew Jonson, Richard Devine, and Paul Schilling. All this comes in a compact, 2.71kg/5.97 lb device with wood panels attached (or the option of metal rack ears instead). DIN MIDI and isolated USB are onboard.

Notes: The world first heard the instantly recognizable sounds of the Mellotron on hits from the Moody Blues ("Nights in White Satin") and the Beatles ("Strawberry Fields Forever") in the 1960s. In 2010, Mellotron reintroduced the iconic tape-based machine in a compact digital version, the Mellotron M4000D, that retains the authentic sound, look and feel of the original keyboard while adding some significant improvements.

The M4000D has been used onstage and in the studio by artists, musicians and producers including Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Smashing Pumpkins, Wilco, Incubus, Queens of the Stone Age, Eels, Jackson Browne, Bruno Mars, Band of Horses, Fleet Foxes, Sean Lennon, Brendan Benson, Air, Kooks, Train, Elbow, Michael Beinhorn, Bob Rock, Raphael Saadiq, Noel Gallagher and Gotye.

Notes: Arpeggio is a powerful and portable melody maker with a built-in speaker, and battery power. It's a synthesizer, arpeggiator, and sequencer all in one. You can compose and perform anywhere, save hundreds of melodies and create millions of arpeggiator styles. It creates a looping sequence of the notes you select in real time. It's a completely new musical instrument designed to give you the freedom to make melodies with nuance and distinction. Save hundreds of melodies and create millions of arpeggiator styles. Control your gear wirelessly with MIDI over bluetooth or go old school with control voltage and gate. The notes you select from the one octave keyboard instantly create a looping sequence. Unlike a step sequencer, Arpeggio does not limit you to a set number of notes in your sequence. Add rests into your melody and adjust note lengths, tempo, octave, portamento, and swing. Save your melodic phrases as they are created into one of 512 memory banks. They can be chained together to create more complex melodies.

It's equally at home on stage, in the studio, or on the couch. With an editable 2-oscillator virtual analog synthesizer, a built-in speaker, and battery power, Arpeggio can help you make melodies wherever inspiration strikes.

Sequences are created and saved on the fly. You can create a sequence and then save it to a bank while it's playing. Sequences are monophonic and can be up to 128 notes long. Individual steps in a sequence can be of different note lengths, and gate lengths. Like an arpeggiator the sequence length expands as notes are added. You can link melodic sequences together, add rest notes, and delete notes all in real time. Attach the advanced sequencing overlay and scrub through your sequence to delete or insert notes, add slides, and adjust swing to create the exact melody in your head.

A monophonic virtual analog synthesizer. Turn the voice knob to cycle through 24 different synth patches and adjust shape, attack, and portamento. Synth features include: dual oscillators, dual ADSR Envelopes, dual LFOs, six oscillator waveforms, low-pass filter & detune. Dive deeper using the synthesizer overlay and completely customize all synth parameters, create and save your own sounds.

A one octave keyboard from low C to a high B is where you'll play the notes to create your own melodic sequences. Turn the octave knob to shift the pitch of the keyboard up and down to play any note you want. Notes may also be input using an external MIDI controller. In transpose mode the currently playing sequence can be shifted up and down by either selecting a note from the built in one octave keyboard, a whole octave by turning the octave knob or by playing a note on an external MIDI controller. The melody will be shifted up by the number of steps the selected key is away from the low C.

Arpeggio is an amazing instrument all on its own, but its expansive I/O makes it a powerful companion for your other electronic instruments. Add an arpeggiator to any synth. Connect a larger external MIDI keyboard and record a full chord's worth of notes into arpeggio instantly. Expand your sonic palette by using it as a sequencer to control other synthesizers and sound modules. Sync it up to external clock sources for integration with drum machines, samplers, iOS devices and computers. Instant looping sequences. Up, up-down, down, down-up, sequence (as played), reverse styles. Or activate the Arpeggiator Overlay to create your own arp styles and rhythms. Millions are possible.

The Arpeggiator Overlay gives you an insane amount of control over custom arp styles. Start by mixing and matching any two of the base note orders (or just pick one): Up, Down, Sequence, Reverse, and Random. Then apply and combine separate modifiers to each like Inside Out, Skip Forward, Alternating First, Zig Zag, and more. Each arp style can also have an Arpeggiator Rhythm of up to 16-steps. The result of all this is that literally millions of unique arp styles are possible.

The Sequencer Overlay lets you go through each note of your saved sequences and change the pitch or octave, add slide notes where you want, adjust swing, and note probability. Here you can also customize global settings and create sequence frequency patterns to add sections of silence before or after your melodies.

The Synthesizer Overlay lets you explore new sonic territory, tweak and fine tune Arpeggio's built-in synth engine, and create and save your own custom synth presets. The virtual analog synthesizer architecture is designed to reproduce a wide range of timbres. Features include: dual oscillators, dual ADSR Envelopes, dual LFOs, six oscillator waveforms, low-pass filter & detune.

Notes: The NVO-1 is an analogue noise synthesizer that's capable of producing a wide variety of sounds. Adjust the Main Frequency and Sub Frequency knob to create deep textures and flip the noise switch to bring out even more tones.

Notes: Based on the iconic Mono/Poly analogue synth of the early 1980s, the Multi/Poly draws on decades of tech innovation to offer something fresh and exciting. Super versatile analogue modelling engine allows you to create unique synth voicings.

Supplier's Notes:
Multi/poly module

Breath-taking analogue-inspired sound with the limitless power of digital technology.

Summary

The multi/poly module takes analogue modelling to new heights, offering musicians and sound designers an incredible fusion of classic analogue warmth and cutting-edge digital power in a compact, rack-mountable module form. Inspired by the legendary Mono/Poly, this revolutionary synthesizer features four oscillators per program, advanced modulation capabilities, and a wealth of hands-on controls, allowing you to craft everything from rich, layered textures to futuristic, experimental tones. The new 19" rack-mountable enclosure has the same controls as the keyed model yet boasts an easily transportable form factor that fits neatly into any studio or desktop production system.

Overview

Inspired by the legendary Korg Mono/Poly, the new multi/poly analogue modelling synthesizer delivers breathtaking analogue sounds combined with extraordinary digital power and flexibility.

Korg is now pleased to introduce the multi/poly module: all of the multi/poly's incredible features and sounds in a compact 19" desktop/rackmount package. With support for MIDI 2.0 property exchange and poly aftertouch, the module is an excellent companion to Korg's Keystage controller. It's also fully compatible with programs from the multi/poly native software, as well as an increasing number of excellent third-party libraries, keeping the updated sounds and software fresh. The new 19" rack-mountable enclosure has the same controls as the keyed model, yet is easily transportable and fits neatly into any studio or desktop production system.

Next-level analogue modelling

multi/poly features redesigned, incredibly detailed filters and oscillators, and advances in analogue modelling that take this technology to a new level. Each voice contains a Virtual Voice Card, where oscillators, filters, envelopes, LFOs, and portamento circuits are modelled to reflect analogue hardware component variations. As a result, each voice can have its own slightly di6erent character, creating rich and naturally evolving timbres

Just like in an analogue synthesiser, voice cards continue to play even if you're not hearing them. Envelopes evolve naturally, meaning if you play a long pad with an extended release time, newly played notes "catch" the envelope at its current state rather than restarting from zero Oscillators and LFOs maintain phase, while resonance continues to ring out. Pitch drift mimics the subtle instabilities of true analogue hardware.

The multi/poly also includes envelope curvature presets inspired by classic synths like the Mono/Poly, MS-20, ARP Odyssey, and Prophet 5. Additionally, analogue VCAs behave di6erently depending on voltage, with varying thresholds for turning on and o6, which has a strong impact on the Amp Envelope's character. multi/poly models VCA responses from the Mono/Poly, MS-20, Prophet 5, Mini, Odyssey, and more, alongside a linear option.

MIDI 2.0 property exchange and polyphonic aftertouch support

All models of multi/poly, hardware and software, support MIDI 2.0 Property Exchange and easy access to Polyphonic Aftertouch - making them excellent companions to Korg's Keystage controller.

Rack-mount and desktop compatible

The multi/poly module is cleverly designed for both desktop and rack-mount use. The front panel is redesigned to fit into a standard 19" width, and the rear jack panel is recessed to allow easy access to cables even with gear mounted directly above. With desktop setups, brackets over a choice of panel angles: flatter for performing standing up, or more upright for working while seated in your studio

Notes: The JMT RVO-3 is an analog noise synthesiser featuring 2 oscillators. 1 main oscillators with 1 sub oscillators paired to it. Each of the oscillators features their own frequency controls, and sync switches for each of the oscillators pairings allowing a wide range of textures. It has a main VCO with a frequency control knob and a push button allowing a short envelope to control the frequency. Additionally, controls for the waveshapes and stability of the VCO and sub frequency VCO allow for further manipulation of timbre.

Notes: The NOSC-12, from JMT Synth, is a 12 oscillator drone synthesiser, six main oscillators with six sub oscillators. There are frequency controls for each of the oscillators, including the sub oscillators, which also include sync switches for each of the oscillator pairs. Each of the oscillators are mixed together to a 1/4" output jack.

NOSC-12 Features

12 Oscillator Drone Synth
12 Suboscillators, one per Osc
Volume Controls for each OSC
Sync switches for each OSC.

Notes: Really nice boutique analogue synth from JMT, based around a main oscillator with three sub signals, a frequency-synced resonant filter, noise source and three-speed random trigger.

Supplier's Notes:
DNVO-1 is a handmade, compact analog synthesizer from JMT Synth Its primary oscillator can be synced with three sub oscillators, each with a different range, as well as a noise source and wave generator. The latter source can be manipulated with the 3-speed random trigger for effective fluctuations within a single performance. The primary VCO is routed through a self-oscillating filter, which can sync with the VCO's frequency.

Notes: The VSYSTEM-1 is a complete synth in a case of exactly the size of the Korg Volca synths. It contains the following AE modules:

2OSC/d (dual oscillator)
The 2OSC/d module contains two 1V/octave hybrid oscillators.
Each of them has:
one frequency knob plus a range switch +2 octaves
CV input (1V / octave)
PWM input
SYNC input
Sawtooth / Square / Sub-octave output

The pulse width knob controls either the pulse width of the first oscillator (with the second one having a fixed pulse width), or via a switch the second oscillator is also controlled by the pulse width knob. Both oscillators can be pulse width-modulated independently by their PWM inputs.
The module is designed as a hybrid digital/analogue module; the oscillator frequencies are determined digitally and are therefore quite stable and have a good tracking; the output waveform itself is created analogue. It's a new idea/concept that I have implemented here; the design causes the waveform to gets a bit gritty at higher frequencies (but not "digital noise") - it's the character of this thing!

WASP FILTER
This filter module is a variant of the Wasp filter, a quite strange circuit used first in the EDP Wasp synth end of the seventies, which abuses digital chips in an analogue way leading to the characteristic sound of this filter type. In this module, vactrols are used for controlling the filter frequency.

MODULATORS (containing LFO, envelope, random voltage, VCA)
MODULATORS is a multifunctional module offering different kinds of modulation sources in a 1U module. It is designed especially with very small AE systems in mind.
You get:
An AD envelope generator
an LFO with adjustable rate, square wave and triangle/sawtooth output, pulse width knob and CV control
a random CV source working in different modes (stepped, smoothed, quantized) and a VCA

4ATTMIX
A versatile mixer / quadattenuator.
4ATTMIX offers four input channels which can be level controlled / attenuated by the corresponding knobs. The attenuated signals are sent to four outputs.
Additionally, each channel can be sent to an internal mixer by the switches beside the knobs. The mix signal is then sent to the mix output.
An additional switch selects the general operation mode for the mixer, for DC/CV signals or for audio signals.

SEQ8 (8-step sequencer)
The SEQ8 is an 8-step sequencer for controlling oscillator pitch and triggering envelopes.
Compared to "classic" analogue sequencers it works a bit different: Instead of setting the CV for each step independently (which means in fact "tuning" each step which can be a bit tedious), the SEQ8 has 4 knobs for presetting different CV's (= notes); each of the 8 step knobs selects one of these CVs, plus 0V (=base note) plus Pause (no trigger output). So some CVs have to be fine-tuned once; with the step knobs you can focus entirely on the sequence itself and you can even modify it on the fly, still remaining in tune.
Additionally, to the selected CV presets, the "raw" value of the step knobs is also accessible at an extra output.

DELAY
This module is a standard mono delay with the usual parameters
delay time
feedback
dry/wet mix.
It sounds not as clean and polished as a usual digital delay, but has quite a character on its own. High feedback settings allow endless and distorting loops.
(For the techies: It is based on the well-known PT2399 chip.)

Stereo Headphone amplifier, 2 IN/OUT sockets via a stereo minijack

It is delivered completely with power wall adapter and patchwires; everything needed to get the modular system started!

This is a REAL modular synth system; all modules can be rearranged and swapped as you like!

Notes: Unassuming looks conceal the excellent EaganMatrix sound engine, offering USB-powered synth creativity perfectly matched to Haken's own Warbl Wind Controller but also compatible with MIDI and MPE.

Supplier's Notes:
EaganMatrix Micro

The power of EaganMatrix Sound Technology in Haken's smallest product ever! The EaganMatrix Micro is a full-featured EaganMatrix sound engine in a small self-contained form factor, and is powered and controlled via USB.

The EaganMatrix Micro provides a truly versatile framework for both studio and live performance, with a robust implementation of MPE and MPE+ Midi.

The EaganMatrix Micro is a perfect companion to the amazing Warbl Wind Controller.

The fingering holes on the Warbl are not just switches. You can hear that the pitch starts off a bit as the finger gets close to the hole (like it would on an acoustic wind instrument) and hits the final pitch once the hole is covered. It's a subtle effect but important. The following video shows 15 Presets from the Micro's demo assortment that Edmund Eagan skillfully customized to take advantage of the Warbl's specific sensing technology. In the future there may be demo assortments customized for the sensing technologies of other devices.

Hundreds of System Presets are included with the EaganMatrix Micro. An external cross-platform (Mac and PC) Haken Editor may be connected to modify and customize the supplied EaganMatrix System Presets, or create completely new presets from scratch.

The EaganMatrix Sound Technology, originally created for the highly sensitive Continuum, is now available to you in this compact form factor.

Notes: Limited-edition orange version of the superb Hydrasynth Explorer. A smaller, more affordable version of the Hydrasynth Keyboard. Advanced wavetable synthesis with 8-voice polyphony, hands-on control and an excellent keybed with polyphonic aftertouch.

Supplier's Notes:
The HYDRASYNTH EXPLORER is the ultimate in power and portability, combining the powerful Hydrasynth sound engine with battery-powered operation and the new, mid-sized Polytouch polyphonic aftertouch keybed. The user interface is designed with the utmost attention to detail, making sound creation a breeze. This is the ultimate, portable companion for any setup, and anywhere else a smaller footprint is needed.

With an advanced wavetable synthesis engine, 3 Oscillators, dual Wave Mutants, and 2 filters that can be configured in series or parallel, the tone generating capabilities are unmatched.

As for the performance capabilities, the Hydrasynth Explorer has the proprietary 37-note mid-sized Polytouch keybed with polyphonic aftertouch. This provides a level of expressive, per-note control found only in certain vintage synths.

Polytouch Keybed

The perennial pursuit of musical instrument manufacturers is to find better ways for musicians to express themselves. Options have been limited for keyboard players; ASM had to settle for a velocity-only approach to emphasize one note over another. Pressure-sensitive keyboards could only change all of the notes at the same time. Not anymore!

Enter ASM, with patented Polytouch technology. The semi-weighted keybed on the Hydrasynth Explorer provides fully polyphonic aftertouch, as well as Note On / Note Off velocity sensitivity and the monophonic aftertouch found on other keybeds. Finally, variations in key pressure can affect notes individually. It feels great, too: the 37-note Polytouch keybed on the Explorer features high quality, mid-sized keys, and you will feel right at home, right away. The revolutionary Hydrasynth Explorer Polytouch keyboard helps you be more in touch with the music you are making. Now every note you play can ebb and flow like the tide.

Battery-powered operation

The Hydrasynth Explorer is highly portable! In addition to its compact size, it can be powered by 8 AA batteries for hours of music-making anywhere you want to go.

Oscillators
The tone generation capability is the heart of any synthesizer, and the 3 Hydrasynth oscillators are alive with potential. Each of the oscillators lets you choose from a selection of 219 single-cycle waveforms. And on top of that, two of the oscillators have powerful wavemorphing capabilities. Wavemorphing is a feature usually found on synths with preset wavetables. But creating user wavetables on those products is arduous or downright impossible. Unlike most wavetable synths, the oscillators 1 & 2 have an easy-to-use WAVELIST mode. This mode lets you select any 8 waves from the diverse collection of 219 waves, arrange them in the order you want, and then morph from one wave to another. This can be done automatically with any modulation source, such as an LFO or an envelope, or manually with a physical control such as polyphonic aftertouch or a Macro. And now in version 2.0 you can choose the bit depth of each oscillator, which puts those sought-after vintage or grungy sounds at your fingertips.

Mutants
Oscillators 1 & 2 are routed into ASM's MUTANTS. The Mutants allow you to modulate, bend and sculpt the sound in new (and old) ways.

Each Mutant lets you choose from the following processes:
FM-Linear: This is for making classic FM sounds. Choose multiple FM sources, including external inputs.
WavStack™: Creates 5 copies of the input source and allows you to set a detune amount.
Osc Sync: This gives you those classic hard sync sounds. Try hard-syncing a morphing wavetable for some fun.
Pulse Width Modulation (PW-Orig): Performs the classic pulse width modulation on any waveform.
PW-Squeeze: Compresses the centre section of the waveform, for a unique type of PWM.
PW-ASM: Divides the incoming wave into 8 slices and lets you set the amount of FM that is applied to each segment. This is FM unleashed.
Harmonic Sweep: This will sweep the harmonics of the input source.
PhazDiff: Generates the difference of the incoming wave and a version that is inverted and phase-shifted.

The Mutants can also generate their own waveforms in both FM and Sync modes, so you don't have use another oscillator. Of course, the routing is flexible so you can choose the other oscillators as mod sources if you like.

Mixer / Filter Routing
The 3 Oscillators are fed into a mixer along with the Noise generator and Ring Modulator. The mixer gives you independent control over the levels and stereo positions of those 5 sources. After this you are able to choose how much signal from each source is routed to filters 1 and 2. The filters can be routed in parallel or series for ultimate flexibility. Who knew that a simple mixer could be so powerful?

Filters
If oscillators and tone generators are the heart of a synthesizer, the filters are the soul. The soul of a Hydrasynth is a complex thing; it can claw or caress, scream or soothe, mangle or melt. It has been known to speak. The multi-faceted Hydrasynth filters are right in the thick of it. Filter 1 has 16 different models ranging from 1 to 8 poles, many with high-, band-, and low pass options. There is also a flexible vocal filter with formant control. Even if Filter 1 were the only filter the Hydrasynth had, it would take a lifetime to exhaust the possibilities. But it is not alone. Filter 2 is a 12dB per octave state-variable filter, which means it can sweep continuously from either low pass > bandpass > high pass or low pass > notch > high pass. It is similar to the classic SEM filter in many ways.
These two formidable filters can be configured in series or parallel. This means the one can feed and be sculpted by the other (series), or they can complement one another (parallel). With careful use of source panning in the Mixer module, the left and right outputs can be completely different or rich in unified complexity.

LFO's
5 Low-Frequency Oscillators
Much like ASM's sound engine, the LFOs are not ordinary by any means.
The Hydrasynth LFOs feature a STEP mode that lets you create patterns with up to 64 steps. Having 5 mini step sequencers gives you an amazing number of possibilities for further shaping your sound.
Of course, there are also 10 standard waveforms available, including Sample and Hold, Noise, and Random.
Each LFO has delay, fade in, 3 triggering modes, smoothing, start phase, BPM sync, and a One-Shot mode so that they can act as envelopes.
The version 2.0 LFOs have some exciting new features, including a Step option for the One-Shot mode that allows the Step wave to advance by one step per trigger.
And LFOs now can be quantized to create stepped values. It's like bit reduction for your LFOs.
Wait...LFOs can be envelopes?! Can envelopes be LFOs? Glad you asked...

Envelopes
5 DAHDSR Envelopes
An advanced sound engine needs plenty of modulation sources. The 6-stage envelopes feature Delay, Attack, Hold, Decay, Sustain, and Release stages.
The durations of the ADR stages can be set to seconds or subdivisions of the tempo, giving you envelopes that play in sync to your song.
In fact, you can also loop the envelopes, which turns them into LFOs that can be shaped by any source in the modulation matrix.
Each envelope can be triggered by up to four different sources, and there's a Tap Trigger option too.
And now the envelopes can be quantized to different step levels as of version 2.0. Bit reduction strikes again!

Modulation Matrix
The modulation capabilities on the Hydrasynth are endless. With 32 user-definable Modulation matrix slots, there are plenty of ways to use the 35 modulation sources and 191 modulation destinations. Almost everything in the synth engine can be a modulation destination, including the effects and arpeggiator. The modulation routes themselves can also become modulation destinations, and can be targeted by the Macros too. Modulation sources & destinations include the CV Mod Out jacks as well as all 128 MIDI CCs. There are some hard-wired modulation routes located in other modules too. This means you don't have to burn up one of the 32 mod routes in the Modulation matrix to do certain basic functions.

Arpeggiator
The arpeggiator has all the standard arpeggio directions plus a few twists (up, down, and/or sideways, sort of). There's also a built-in phrase mode, and version 2.0 adds new features like Step Offset and increases the range to 6 octaves. Parameters like RATCHET and CHANCE will generate other semi-random rhythmic patterns to add life and spontaneity to your performance.
You can also modulate most of the parameters in the arpeggiator. Imagine using LFOs, Envelopes, Polyphonic Aftertouch or the Ribbon controller to modify your arpeggios in real time! It boggles the mind.
