What if a synth could morph thousands of waveforms on the fly, turning a simple pad into a psychedelic storm with just a twist of a knob? That's the magic at the heart of this 61-key wavetable powerhouse, drawing from Modal's legacy of boundary-pushing digital engines like their OO series.
Built around eight voices, each packing four high-resolution wavetable oscillators from 120 waveshapes across 24 banks of five morphable sets, it lets you sculpt everything from lush pads to earth-shaking basses. Shape them further with 32 static processors like de-rez, wavefolders, and phase shapers, plus eight modifier types including FM, ring mod, and hard sync. A two-pole morphing multimode filter anchors the signal path, joined by three envelopes per voice, two tempo-syncable LFOs (one poly, one global), and a deep mod matrix with 11 sources to 52 destinations across eight slots. Hands-on control comes via 29 endless encoders, 24 buttons, a lockable four-axis joystick, and a bright 1.54-inch OLED display, all in a road-ready aluminum chassis measuring 885 x 300 x 100mm. The premium FATAR TP/9S keybed delivers velocity and channel aftertouch, with MPE support, seven keyboard modes (mono, poly, unison, stack), voice drift for stereo width, a 512-step realtime/step sequencer with four animation lanes, 32-step arpeggiator, and effects like waveshaping distortion plus three stereo slots for reverb, delay, chorus, flanger, and more. Dual stereo outs, headphone jack, audio in, MIDI, and analog clock sync keep it connected, while 500 onboard presets and the MODALapp expand your library.
Players love its intuitive workflow for live performance and sound design, praising the responsive keybed and vast sonic palette, though some note the menu diving for deeper edits can feel a touch fiddly at first.
