SYNTRX II
Analog synthesizer with a user interface inspired by Synthi
Based on lessons learned from the SYNTRX, we decided to create an instrument that would integrate even deeper into contemporary electronic and experimental music setups and cover sonic territory from daunting drones to powerful basslines and glitched noisescapes - the SYNTRX II is a new dark horse for experimental sonic rides.
The SYNTRX II is the culmination of our analogue sound design circuits – two perfectly stable main oscillators with waveshapers, a modulation oscillator with 1V/oct tracking, a versatile multimode filter, supercharged external instrument inputs with an envelope follower, a unique, great-sounding ring modulator, a recordable joystick, built-in piano roll sequencer and stepped modulation sources, all arranged around our signature matrix mixer and topped off with powerful FX on our new DSP platform.
Features:
- Fully modular analog synth designed for experimentation
- 3 ultra-fat analog VCOs with adjustable wave shapes, hard-sync, and paraphonic capabilities
- Lush diode-based resonant VCF with self-oscillation
- Looping trapezoid envelope generator and VCA allow for complex sound sculpting
- Add the final touch to a patch with tilt-EQ-style output filters
- Go mad with modulation using Noise Generation, Sample & Hold, and Ring Modulation
- Dual-mode envelope generator with audio and CV signal output
- 256-point patch matrix with recallable routing and 254 user memory slots, featuring 3 attenuation levels per patch point
- Advanced DSP provides robust FX suite
- DIN5 MIDI input (CV and gate) and MIDI Thru
- Control numerous parameters with assignable X/Y joystick
- External audio input for processing vocals, drums, guitars, samples, and more
- Audio and CV analog VU metering
