Modal Electronics 008R

Allmänt

Modal Electronics' 008R is a rack synthesizer packed with possibilities and perfect for use in professional studios and on stage. Internally, it's the same as the 008 model that has a keyboard and it has the same beautiful 4.3-inch display too. It's a subtractive synthesizer with 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.

If you're after a fully-fledged rack synthesizer with real quality, the 008R is worth every penny.
