Mutable Instruments introduce Anushri Analog Monosynth

·0 comments·

Anushri is a monosynth like no other. In addition to its analog VCO/VCF/VCA and digital modulation sources, it includes a fun and immediate note sequencer with step-by-step recording, and a gritty 8-bit drum machine with a truly original control interface. Just like its elder sister the Shruthi-1, Anushri is not designed for industrial assembly but is instead sold as a kit – you can assemble it, modify it, expand it and service it without any specialized expensive equipment. Open source firmware and schematics give you full access, control and ownership of its circuitry and code.

Elektron announces new product!

·0 comments·

Through the relase of the video below Elektron announces a new product for the 4th quarter of this year. So that means any day now (kinda). For us, Elektron is famous for not leaking any information before the official release date. And we expect that this time as well, so for now you can only listen to the new product and wait for any visual or detailed specifications information.
