Modal Electronics 008

Allmänt

Modal Electronics' 008 is a large synthesizer that's packed with possibilities and perfect for use in professional studios and on stage. It has eight voices, each of which has two analogue VCOs with classic waveforms and two sub oscillators. The filter is extensive too and offers traditional modes like low pass, band pass and high pass as well as more unusual ones like notch and phase, among others. Oscillator FM, filter FM and two LFOs give you even more sound options. All this can be controlled using the many buttons and knobs that are spread out across the entire front panel giving you a clear overview. In the centre, you'll also find a beautiful 4.3-inch display.

There's also a comprehensive modulation matrix, a 32-step sequencer and an arpeggiator on board. Other highlights include a web interface for operation via a browser. In addition to standard MIDI, there's also USB-MIDI host that allows you to connect a USB device, like a MIDI controller, without a computer. The 008 even has XLR/jack combo outputs! If you're after a fully-fledged synthesizer with real quality, the 008 is worth every penny.
