Ashun Sound Machines - Hydrasynth Explorer / Deluxe

The Hydrasynth is coming, in two different and new sizes.

The Hydrasynth Explorer is a version, with 37 keys, in mini - size format.

Beside this and the missing MIDI - thru socket, the technical specifications are the same, as the regular keyboard - and desktop - version.

Something, about the specifications, of the Hydrasynth.

The Hydrasynth Deluxe is a dual - engine version, with 73 full - sized keys.

Each of them, has eight voices.

Both engines can be used to create layer - sounds or a key - split, if using multi - mode.

The Deluxe - version has a single - mode, which is allowing to play one sound, with sixteen voices.

Very nice, is the possibility, to use it's bi - timbrality, through two different MIDI - channels and two dedicated stereo - output connections. That way, you can have two real Hydrasynth - units, that can be edited separately or together.

Price: €599 ( Explorer) / €1749 (Deluxe)

Both are available, in a few weeks.

Waldorf - M

Waldorf is continuing, the Microwave - series. In a contemporary sound - and form - factor. And the new wavetable - hybrid, is just called M.

It's a desktop - unit, without any keys and it seems it can be rack - mounted.

The M has a polyphony of eight voices and a multi - timbrality of for parts, which can be routed to separated outputs.

Each voice is using, two wavetable with independant wavetable generating - modes. There is the Microwave 1 - and the Microwave 2 / XT - mode.

The 24 dB / oct - filter is a analog circuit, also the stereo - VCA, that can be panned.

It has two LFO, three flexible multi - segment envelopes, and an arpeggiator which can be synced to MIDI - clock.

96 factory - wavetable and 32 user - wavetable.

2048 sound - and 128 multi - programs, can be stored.

SD - card slot, for exchanging sound - banks and wavetables.

USB - and DIN - connections, for MIDI.

And a graphics - capable display.

There is no such thing, like a modulation - matrix.

Future Retro - Vectra
Future Retro - Vectra

The latest product, by Future Retro, is called Vectra. It's a hybrid machine, with digital sound - generation and an analog filter and VCA and VCF.

The Vectra can be pre - ordered and will be produced when the given contingent is reached.

The Vectra has four oscillator (500 waveforms, with noise), five LFO (500 waveforms), six filter models (analog), six envelopes (loop - and morphable, DADHSR), mixer - stage (four channel), VCA (can be used in drone mode), an arpeggiator and a sequencer (16 steps).

It's possible to generate FM, PWM, AM, sync, phase - slice, oscillator - glide, beat - detuning, oscillator - fade and ring - modulation.

The Vectra is providing four joysticks, eight encoder, a touch - keyboard (29 notes) and a small display.

It's a paraphonic machine (eight modes) and has a storage for 999 programs.

There are no patch - points, like CV / Gate or analog - sync. Of course, there is MIDI.

The power supply is external.
