A Synthesis Module Designed for Keyboard Performance
Synth-8 is designed for keyboardists and pianists looking for an expressive synth engine that is quick to master and rich in sonic character. Its dual-oscillator structure, varied waveforms and extensive modulation capabilities make it equally suited to vintage sounds and modern, thick, dynamic tones.
The Unison and Fat modes immediately add greater depth to your touch, while velocity control over the filters and envelopes enhances the playing experience. Whether on stage or in the studio, this module offers smooth editing, ready-to-use presets and numerous options for shaping an inspiring synth sound within a keyboard setup.
