Neuer kompakter Analogsynthesizer

Superbooth 21: PWM Malevolent

von Redaktion, 17. September 2021

PWM stellt zur Superbooth 21 den Malevolent vor, einen monofonen, semimodularen Analog-Synthesizer, der sich dank vieler Patchpoints gut zur Integration in Eurorack-Modularumgebungen eignet.

Der kompakte Malevolent ist mit Minitasten ausgestattet. Seine Klangerzeugung arbeitet mit zwei analogen Oszillatoren, einem LFO, zwei Hüllkurven und einem Zweipol-Multimode-Filter. An Bord ist außerdem ein Arpeggiator.

Die Features des Malevolent:

Pure Analogue signal path designed by Future Sound Systems
19 Outputs and 19 Inputs for 3.5mm mono jack cable patching
Normalized signal path for immediate sound Malevolence
