PL2 Leukos USB MIDI Micro Synthesizer

This tiny powerhouse squeezes a full subtractive synth engine into a palm-sized white shell, measuring just 46.5 x 27.5 x 52 mm, and powers up solely via USB from your computer or iPad.

It packs two digital oscillators with four waveforms each—think square wave synthesis, pulse width modulation, and even voice synth tricks—routed through a screaming 125kHz state variable digital multimode filter (LPF, BPF, HPF) for gritty saturation, then tamed by a warm analog low-pass filter and output saturation stage for punchy bass. An ADSR envelope, MIDI clock-synced LFO modulating up to five destinations, and 32 presets plus 32 user slots give you endless tweaking via MIDI CC commands, with no onboard knobs—everything's hands-off control from your DAW or editor software. Play modes include an arpeggiator, and it spits stereo RCA audio plus 5-pin MIDI DIN out to chain another synth, all on channel 1.

Players love its surprising sonic range and portability for live rigs or quick sketches, often calling out the duophonic tricks and USB simplicity as game-changers despite the editor reliance.
