Did you know this synth draws inspiration from parallel sequencing ideas in classic electronic music, but reimagines them with Moog's analog warmth and a generative twist that keeps patterns evolving on their own?
At its core, it packs two sine wave oscillators capable of through-zero FM and ring modulation, feeding into a saturating mixer with a noise generator for gritty, complex textures. A voltage-controlled wavefolder adds West Coast-style harmonic richness, with manual bias to shift symmetry for even or odd harmonics, while a state-variable filter morphs between low-pass and band-pass modes at a 2-pole slope. Modulation comes from a dedicated mod VCO that doubles as an LFO, plus two decay-only envelope generators—EG1 patching internally to osc pitch, wavefolder amount, and filter cutoff via attenuverters, and EG2 driving the dual VCAs. The real magic lies in the dual 8-step sequencers with chance-based randomization, quantization to 16 scales across 1-10 octaves, and controls for tempo, range, and evolution; they trigger envelopes via an EG Trig Mix and modulate parameters like osc frequency (Seq1 on VCO1 and wavefolder, Seq2 on mod VCO and filter). Housed in a compact desktop chassis with mini pots, toggles, and a 32-point patchbay (20 ins, 12 outs), it includes audio in/out, headphone jack, MIDI sync, and clock I/O for easy Eurorack or Moog ecosystem integration.
Players love how the sequencers spark endless polyrhythmic surprises without feeling gimmicky, delivering everything from droning atmospheres to percussive leads. Some note the filter's resonance stays polite rather than screaming, which suits its focus on mellow, evolving tones over aggressive cuts.
