Synthesizer Keyboard Instrument with USB Cable and DVD Installation
Our Synthesizer Keyboard Instrument with USB Cable and DVD Installation is a pure analog mono-synth. It is enhanced in every area to make it even bigger, powerful, and more versatile. The station has two tune-able oscillators, a sub-oscillator for enormous bass, plus noise and ring modulation. It also gives you two distinct analog filter types: the classic multi-mode filter and a new acid filter, for a massive variation in sonic possibilities. The synth can sound as mellow or aggressive as you want. Seek out sweet spots with the filter mod to make it sing.
Easy Controls for Complex Design
It has many controls, so you can totally lose yourself in discovering and creating new sounds. The controls are laid out in the clearest and most useful way, to keep the sound design as straightforward and fun as possible. It allows you to easily save and load your own patches on the unit, or in the free librarian software. You can also use the loaded 64 diverse patches that showcase the bass station's huge sonic variation.
Instant Inspiration
The synthesizer's pattern-based arpeggiator and step sequencers are a fun and immediate way to find new inspiration. The sequencer lets you record your own notes, ties, rests, and rhythms in real-time, then store them, recall them and use them with any patch you like. Easily and automatically sync them to your music software or hardware setup, or even add swing to get your groove going.
Connect to Just About Anything
It is fully class-compliant, it allows you to plug into anything via USB and start playing. It also has MIDI I/O on 5 pin din ports, so you can connect your other MIDI gear. You can even connect an external instrument and run it through the synthesizer's analog filter and effects.
