Product Description
The MOTOR Synth MKII is an innovative electro mechanical synthesizer powered by an eight motor oscillator system. These custom built brushless DC motors generate waveforms through both optical and electromagnetic methods, creating a unique sonic character unlike any other synth on the market. The MKII features two fully independent motor voices, each with extensive controls for volume, scale, waveform, amp envelope, and pitch envelope. It also introduces a third digital voice (DCO) with virtual analogue oscillators, a multimode digital filter, and full polyphony capabilities. A comprehensive modulation section provides assignable destinations, extensive waveshaping options, and detailed envelope settings. The built in performance interface includes an arpeggiator, sequencer, and motion recording engine, making it a powerful tool for both studio production and live performances. Additional features such as MIDI and CV control, input signal processing (including vocoder, sidechaining, and filtering), and an advanced pitch envelope system further enhance the synthesizer’s creative potential.
Key Features:
- Revolutionary Motor Oscillator System:
Eight custom built brushless DC motors generate optical and electromagnetic waveforms, producing a unique and versatile sound. - Dual Motor Voices & Digital Voice:
Two independent motor voices with full controls, plus an additional DCO voice with virtual analogue oscillators and multimode digital filtering. - Advanced Modulation & Performance Tools:
Assignable modulation slots, an arpeggiator, sequencer, motion recording, and multi mode modulation envelopes for expressive sound design.
Motor Oscillator Technology:
At the core of the MOTOR Synth MKII are eight high precision motors, each capable of generating four distinct waveforms: sine, saw, and square (via optical sensors), plus an electromagnetic inductive wave. These motors allow for instant and accurate pitch changes, ensuring dynamic and expressive synthesis. The system’s innovative pitch envelope controls offer acceleration and brake functions, adding further sonic flexibility.
Dual Motor Voices & Digital Oscillator:
The MKII features two separate motor voices with independent amp and pitch envelopes, multimode analogue filters, and polyphony options. The additional digital voice (DCO) introduces a virtual analogue oscillator and noise engine, a dedicated multimode digital filter, and flexible routing options for enhanced sound design possibilities. Each voice operates with its own envelope shaping and modulation tools.
Modulation & Performance Features:
The MOTOR Synth MKII offers an extensive modulation section, with two assignable modulation slots per voice, multiple LFO shapes, and adjustable clock sources. The built in arpeggiator, sequencer, and motion recording features provide dynamic performance capabilities. The cross modulation and drift/detune effects, controlled via the front panel, enable deep sound sculpting and rich harmonic textures.
