Polyphony limited only by CPU. Up to 64 synth voices may play simultaneously
Live adjustment of synth and effect parameters with two endless-turn encoders with LED level-meters
- Easy buttons to select the functions these control
Parameter automation recording
Arpeggiator
Dedicated volume and tempo knobs
LFOs and envelopes on each synth / sample. Highly customizable modulation matrix
Synthesizer engine features LPF / HPF, FM, portamento, oscillator sync, ring modulation, unison detune, and more
Four basic digital waveforms, two analog-modeled waveforms, or select any WAV file from SD card
12dB/oct and 24dB/oct filters, with optional filter drive mode

SEQUENCER

Piano-roll-style sequencing on 128 full RGB pads (16×8) with scrolling and zooming
Launch, mute and interact with tracks live
Arranger view, to sequence your instrument parts into a longer composition, and work with audio clips similarly to a DAW
