A semi-modular analog desktop-synthesizer
Featuring a dual complex oscillator characterized by simple and clear operation and uncompromised sound
Designed as an instrument that can be built, explored and learned
MAIN FEATURES
TWO ANALOG OSCILLATORS
Two Voltage Controlled Oscillators with classic waveforms, waveshapers, sub-octaves and a noise source. Convenient sliding potentiometers for volume control of the waveforms. Based on the famous CEM3340 chip and a newly developed wave-shaping tone generator.
TWO SEQUENCERS
Play notes with a 5-STEP trigger and CV sequencer and an additional 4-STEP CV sequencer. Transpose and change the length of a sequence, control the tempo via CV, add swing or sequence manually with the push of a button.
OSC MIX & VARI BOARDS
Seamlessly blend the oscillators manually or by CV. Insert external audio and pass it through the Filter or internal Reverb. VARI BOARDS are interchangeable boards, each offering a different functionality. Choose the VARI BOARD that meets your requirements.
DUAL LPG, VCA & ADSR
Each oscillator is processed by a filter-based low-pass gate (LPG) and both are optionally routed through an internal AC-coupled VCA. Use the internal ADSR envelope to shape and express your sounds.
MODULATION & TOOLS
Get your sounds moving with the internal CV-controllable LFO and the Buchla 281e-inspired function generator. Multiply, invert and amplify your signals with a buffered multiple and an additional DC-coupled VCA.
REVERBERATION
Add depth to your analog sounds with the internal reverb unit. Connect either an Analog Spring Tank or a Digital Reverb Brick. Apply Reverb Feedback and control the Dry/Wet Portion via CV.
DO IT YOURSELF!
EUPHORIA is only available as a DIY-project and was designed to be built by passionate builders. It consists of fourteen individual circuit
boards that are mounted on one controller board
