KOMA is an analogue bassline inspired by classical synths from the 1980s. It offers the possibility to mix 4 different waveforms (saw, square, sub, noise). The 24 dB low-pass filter is also inspired from classical filters from the 80s.
To this particular sound of the 80s, we added a touch of modernity with modern controls and parameters saving features. The 16 steps sequencer has 4 rows: 1 for the notes and 3 freely assignable to a parameter of your choice that enables to create living sequences with sonorities like Vince Clark or Yann Hammer.
Oscillator section
– analogue VCO with square saw sub (sub can be 1 or 2 octaves below the master freq), noise.
– VCO can be modulated by LFO and PW
– Variable glide
– mixer to mix the 4 waveforms
Filter section – Full analogue VCO, filter, VCA.
– external audio with a trimmer to feed the filter
– 24dB low pass filter roland style for a classical 80s sound
– filter can be modulated by env2, KB, lfo.
VCA section
– Vca is affected to env1
– 2 envelopes ADSR modulate respectively the amplitude and the filter.
Attack goes from 2ms to 10s.
LFO section
– LFO with 8 waveforms (triangle, ramp up, ramp down, square, random, digital noise, staircase up, staircase down)
Connections
– audio in
– audio out
– MIDI in
– Usb (for software update and MIDI in&out)
Sequencer
– 16 steps sequencer with LED
– 4 rows: 1 row controls gates and notes.
– 3 other rows are freely assignable to any parameter of the front panel.
– You can transpose the sequencer with an external MIDI keyboard.
COMING THIS FALL 2011 – KOMA is a step back into the 80s with a touch of modernity…
