The Flagship of the Hydrasynth Family
Designed as the most advanced version in the ASM range, the Hydrasynth Deluxe takes the Hydrasynth concept even further: dual autonomous engines, a 6-octave Polytouch keyboard, and studio ergonomics designed for the stage. It retains the "Hydra" sonic DNA (wavemorphing, deep modulation) while offering an architecture ready for complex Layer and Keysplit setups.
Who Is It For, and For What Uses?
Ideal for sound designers, electro/techno/ambient producers, film composers, and demanding live keyboardists. Its polyphonic aftertouch and MPE compatibility will appeal to expressive performers, while its bi-timbrality and dedicated outputs simplify routing in the studio and on stage. Perfect for synthwave, modern pop, experimentation, and scoring.

A truly fantastic synthesizer. A sturdy design and a keyboard that's really nice to have under your fingers.
The sound design seems easy to understand but I think that much more is needed to master the beast. At this price... In view of the materials... the keyboard has very good workmanship and the creation of resolutely modern sounds... One of the best keyboards you can dream of on a medium budget. â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžAutomatically translated
