Touch 2 Expandable Touch Synth

DigitalPolyphonic

Imagine swapping out the front panel on your synth and instantly transforming it into a totally different instrument, all without touching a soldering iron. That's the magic at the heart of this touch-based powerhouse, built around the Daisy Seed for pristine 96kHz/24-bit audio that handles everything from massive reverb tails to 10-minute sample buffers.

Powered by a digital engine with 8-voice polyphony, dual oscillators, filters, envelopes, and LFOs, it ships with five swappable faceplates—including bass synth, string voice, looper, multi-FX with delay/reverb/distortion, drum machine, slicer, and a blank one for your custom code. Twelve responsive touch pads handle playing and modulation, paired with 6 trim knobs, 2 faders, and 2 switches for intuitive control, plus stereo I/O and a headphone out—all in a compact 16HP Eurorack format that's micro-USB powered and perfect for tactile performances. Open-source firmware means you can flash new behaviors via GitHub, making it a playground for developers and performers alike.

The community loves its versatility and hands-on feel, with makers on Discord sharing wild custom firmwares, though some note it needs line-level signals only to avoid overloads.
