Imagine squeezing genuine analog monosynth power into something smaller than a paperback book, complete with a 27-note multitouch keyboard that feels right at home on any desk.
This desktop beast runs a pure analog subtractive engine with two voltage-controlled oscillators offering continuous waveshaping from triangle to saw, square, and PWM up to 98%, plus a noise generator for extra grit. A versatile multimode filter—lowpass, highpass, bandpass, all 12dB/oct with resonance—pairs with dual envelopes (one for amp, one assignable) and a single LFO, all tweakable via an intuitive matrix of four buttons and rotaries. Hands-on performance effects like Dive, Scoop, Vibrato, Wah, and Tremolo join a sync delay, while the 16-step sequencer supports real-time recording, step editing, parameter automation across 20 lanes, and three play directions; the arpeggiator adds 10 modes over four octaves. Battery-powered for portability or USB/MIDI (DIN and USB) for DAW integration, it includes mono audio I/O, self-tuning, and 100 presets (80 user-rewritable) with sequences.
Players love its weighty, versatile basses and leads that punch above the price, plus the inspiring arp and motion sequencing for quick ideas—though the matrix interface takes a groove to master, and some note minor USB noise.
