Notes: Heavily redesigned for version three, Twisted Electrons offer up a new take on their compact acid synth: dual oscillators, new digital filter, real-time effects and more. Great value.

Supplier's Notes:
acid8 is an 8Bit bass-line synthesizer with a revisited sound and interface.

MKIII has been rethought from the ground up. The filter has been replaced with an new all digital one, the handling has been redesigned for more immediate handling and many other real time features have been added including transposition automation, filter wobbler, stutter and vinyl spin-down effects.

The synth engine now has dual oscillators allowing fat and harmonized sounds.

acid8 MKIII offers the same features as its slimsynth uAcid8 counterpart, but with the addition of hardware MIDI and analog sync in and out connectivity and packed in a rugged metal case.

A vst plugin is available to easily take control of the synth's parameters.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Q:How do I copy/paste a pattern?

A:Hold SLIDE and press OCT- to copy and OCT+ to paste

Q:The briefly LEDS go out when I stop the sequencer - is something wrong?

A:This is normal and occurs when the memory is updated (a few seconds after the sequencer is stopped when a change has been made).

Notes: A uniquely characterful drum machine, based on FM synthesis inspired by early 90s PC soundcards. Six drum voices and four synth parts can be controlled by a built-in step sequencer or MIDI.

Supplier's Notes:
At the heart of BlastBeats is a vintage FM chip called YMF-262 also known as the OPL3 chip & previously found in computer sound cards of the early 90s.

These chips were notoriously hard to program and were rarely used to their full potential. However, they can produce surprisingly rich beautiful and utterly dirty sounds with a bit of exploring...

By putting so many parameters within easy reach BlastBeasts makes it fun and easy to master the signature sound of the DOS era!

Notes: Beautiful chiptune synth inspired by the RP2A07 sound chip found in the NES games console. Four-voice polysynth with plenty of sound sculpting options.

Supplier's Notes:
hapiNES is a multitrack chiptune synthesizer inspired by the RP2A07 sound chip found in the NES games console.

The 4 voices allow you to create authentic sounding tunes in real time!

Notes: Vintage FM synthesis meets analogue character in the TWISTfm. Eight-voice polyphonic sound engine with superb versatility thanks to 15 filter modes including Heat saturation and adjustable resonance.

Supplier's Notes:
Unleash the full potential of FM synthesis with TWISTfm, a cutting-edge polyphonic synthesiser that blends vintage FM synthesis with advanced analogue filtering and modern control. Designed to offer a rich, dynamic sound palette, TWISTfm is the perfect tool for musicians and sound designers looking to push the boundaries of sonic creativity.

At the core of TWISTfm are two legendary Yamaha OPL-3 YMF262 FM chips paired with dual YAC512 stereo DACs, providing 8 discrete voices. Each voice is equipped with its own analog multimode filter for an unparalleled range of sound design possibilities.

With HEAT and Dual Resonance Modes: Featuring 8 individual analogue filters, inspired by the iconic designs of Mutable Instruments, TWISTfm gives you precise control over sound shaping with 15 filter modes, including low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, phaser, notch, and more. The HEAT parameter adds anything from warm, subtle saturation to harsh analog distortion, allowing you to push the filters to their limit. Additionally, you can switch between two resonance flavors-LIQUID, for smooth and subtle resonance, and MS20, for more aggressive, cutting tones. With digital control over resonance and cutoff, the filters offer flexible modulation and the ability to store settings with presets.

TWISTfm's MPE mode fully supports three dimensions of control-pitch (X), timbre (Y via CC74), and pressure (Z)-offering precise per-note modulation for unparalleled expressiveness and depth in your sound.

Whether you're composing in the studio or performing live, TWISTfm's robust feature set and intuitive design make it a powerful addition to any setup. Its combination of vintage FM tones and modern control capabilities offers a unique, versatile sound engine capable of producing everything from smooth ambient pads to aggressive basses and leads.
