Modal Electronics Argon8M

Modal Electronics Argon8M - 8 stemmers wavetable synthesizer modul

ARGON8 lener seg på arven til våre legendariske OO-serie synthesizere, og er en moderne bølgesynth for musikkutøvere, produsenter og lyddesignere. Med sin transparente og fyldige lyd, en rekke sanntidskontroller, MPE-støtte, et tydelig strukturert brukergrensesnitt og integrerte ytelsesverktøy, er ARGON8 et unikt instrument designet for å levere en uovertruffen lydopplevelse. Det slanke stasjonære/rackmonterte aluminium-designet passer på hvert bord eller i hvert stativ. MODALapp gir enkel tilgang til alle AGRON8M-funksjoner og kjører på macOS/Windows/iOS/iPadOS og Android-enheter og er også tilgjengelig i AU/VST3 plug-in-formater som MODALplugin.

• Opptre med unike wavetable-lyder, som spenner fra frodige pads, svevende leads, bevegelige lydlandskap og rystende basser
• Ta ytelsen til et nytt nivå med MPE-støtte, den integrerte 512-noters Realtime/Step Sequencer, 32-trinns programmerbar arpeggiator og enormt kraftige animasjonsbaner
• Integrer ARGON8 wavetable synth i produksjonen og liveopptredenene dine med MIDI-tilkoblingene i full størrelse og 3,5 mm Sync Ins and Outs
• Lag og lagre dine egne signatur lydteksturer med morphable bølgeformer, analog-stil morphable filter, en oppslukende modulasjonsmatrise og fleksible digitale effekter
• Uttrykk deg selv med det klasseledende 37-noters keyboard med aftertouch, innebygd i en solid aluminiumskabinett

Spesifikasjoner:

Polyphony: True 8 voice polyphonic

MPE: Supports MPE-compatible MIDI controllers, allowing you to apply polyphonic control and expression to individual notes

Oscillators:
32 high-resolution wavetable oscillators, 4 per voice
180 carefully crafted wavetables split into 36 banks of 5 morphable waveform sets Additional PWM bank and 3 noise/modulation banks accessible on Oscillator 2
32 static wavetable modifiers including, de-rez, wave folders, waveshapers, phase shapers and rectify can be applied to the 180 wavetables to give a mind-boggling array of permutations and new waveshapes.
8 types of oscillator modifier including Phase Mod (FM), Ring Mod, Amp Mod, Hard Sync and Windowed Sync
Voice Drift and Width controls that help to create massive stereo soundscapes
Vintage Parameter and Oscillator Free Run to emulate the behaviours of vintage analogue synths

Filter: 
Eight Filter types
Two ‘Standard’ filters are 2-pole state variable filters, based on the resonant filter found in other Modal synthesisers, morphing through: LP > BP > HP or LP > Notch > HP
Two ‘Classic’ 2-Pole state variable with a more rounded character and a softer resonance response, morphing through: LP > BP > HP
‘Ladder’ – 4 pole resonant ladder filter with pre-filter drive, morphing through: LP > BP > HP
‘Ladder Hybrid’ – 1 pole resonant ladder filter with pre-filter drive, morphing through: LP + Notch > Notch > HP + Notch
‘Ladder Phaser’ – Resonant ladder filter with pre-filter drive, morphing through: Notch > Phaser
‘Sallen-Key’ – 2 pole resonant Sallen-Key Filter with pre-filter drive, morphing through: LP > BP

Modulation:
3 dedicated envelope generators for AMP, MOD and FILTER that can be accessed independently or all three simultaneously including negative (reverse) versions and multiple envelope curve options
2 Audio rate LFO’s with tempo sync (one poly, one global). Polyphonic LFO can sync to frequency divisions
8 assignable modulation slots and 4 additional fixed modulation routings for common assignments with 11 modulation sources and 52 modulation destinations

Sequencer and Arpeggiator:
Polyphonic Real-time sequencer with 512 notes and four recordable/editable parameter animations (Delay FX, LFO’s, sequencer and arpeggiator can be either clocked internally or externally)
Polyphonic Step Sequencer with 64 steps, 8 notes per step, 4 lanes of Parameter-Lock style animation, Step Input mode, multiple playback modes including gate modes and rest function
Built-In sophisticated programmable arpeggiator of 32 steps with rest capability with up to 2048 steps before repeating, multiple Arpeggiator direction modes.

FX:
Waveshaping distortion
Three incredibly powerful independent and user-configurable stereo FX engines for 26 Effects algorithms, incl. Drive, Chorus, Phaser, Flanger, Tremolo, LoFi, Rotary, Stereo Delay, Ping-Pong Delay, X-Over Delay and Reverb.

User Memory:
500 patch memories, all fully editable and ships with 300 factory programs
100 sequencer presets that can be linked to any patch for quickly loading arrangements
100 FX presets
8 Quick Recall slots accessible from the panel for quickly loading your favourite patches

Controls and Performance:
13 switched encoders, 13 encoders, 9 buttons
4-axis joystick that can be assigned to a huge range of modulation destinations and virtually ‘locked’ when desired
Multiple voice modes, Mono, Poly, Unison 2, unison 4, unison 8, Stack 2 and Stack 4
Glide/Portamento with both legato and staccato modes
Chord Invert control to easily create chord inversions and variation
