This funky little music machine comes with a versatile digital oscillator so you can create rare and interesting sounds effortlessly. Modes like KarplusStrong, Superwave, Vocoder, and now even the ability to use your own wavetables, give adventurous musicians a chance to explore completely new possibilities. Beginners and experienced sound designers alike will love this flexible and powerful device.
Arturia has integrated technology from Mutable Instruments Plaits to create a paraphonic variation of some of their most cherished sound sources. To that they have added a 12 dB filter, inspired by Oberheim's legendary SEM. Highpass, lowpass, and bandpass modes allow you to shape your sound in almost any way you want.
That might be enough. But there is also a sequencer. And a modulation matrix. And the Slice and Dice random generator. And then the keyboard, with polyphonic aftertouch.
