Soft, unstable grains of sound flicker into focus as your hands shape them, turning simple gestures into shimmering, melodic textures. Auduina MK2 is built for those moments when noise becomes music and control feels more like play than programming.
This handmade desktop instrument from Los Aparatos is an experimental granular synthesizer designed for musicians, sound artists and curious explorers. Its touch plate interface invites you to perform directly on the surface, while the optical light sensor reacts to changing light for expressive, gestural control without needing a traditional keyboard. Behind the panel, a set of dedicated knobs and switches puts core parameters at your fingertips, making it easy to sculpt tones in real time.
Granular and experimental at its core, Auduina MK2 stands out by offering major pentatonic scales across all 12 musical keys, giving you instant access to harmonically pleasing intervals even in the most glitchy or chaotic textures. Continuous performance mode encourages long, evolving improvisations, and the 3.5 mm CV input lets you bring external control voltage into the mix alongside a 3.5 mm audio output for direct connection to your setup. The result is a compact, digital, in‑production desktop synth that feels as immediate and tactile as it is adventurous.
