Specification
Polyphony
• True 8 voice polyphonic with option to polychain any two COBALT synthesisers for 16
voice polyphony.
MPE
• Supports MPE-compatible MIDI controllers, allowing you to apply polyphonic control and
expression to individual notes
Oscillators
• 2 independent oscillator groups, each with selectable algorithms, self-contained oscillator
cross-modulation and control
• 40 algorithms including a variety of complex analogue synthesis techniques, built in cross-
modulation (SYNC, RM, and many more), PWM, smooth Morphing between VA waves,
bit crushing and filtered noise
• Each algorithm has carefully curated controls that make complex synthesis simple with
just two parameters
• Extended Oscillator Drift and Voice Width controls that help to create massive stereo
soundscapes
• Vintage Parameter and Oscillator Free Run to emulate the behaviours of vintage analogue
synths
Filter
• 31 resonant Filter types including morphable and static filters with drive
• Cutoff Scaling with three distinctive modes
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
• 3 assignable LFO’s, two polyphonic, one global
• 8 assignable modulation slots and 4 additional fixed modulation routings for common
assignments with 12 modulation sources and 55 modulation destinations
Specification
Sequencer and Arpeggiator
• Polyphonic Real-time and Step sequencer with 512 notes and four recordable/editable
parameter animations (Delay FX, LFO’s, sequencer and arpeggiator can be either clocked
internally or externally)
• Step Sequencer holds up to 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 and
random up to 2048 steps before repeating
FX
• 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
• 4 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
