The ASM Hydrasynth Explorer Takes the Now Legendary Hydrasynth into New Territories The Hydrasynth Explorer offers the same 8-voice sound engine as the Hydrasynth Keyboard and Desktop, but in a compact and portable battery powered form factor. The 37-note mid-sized PolyTouch® keybed features polyphonic aftertouch, offering great playability and expression but in a reduced footprint. The extremely deep yet easy to use sound engine features the famous WaveScan oscillators, Mutator waveshaping, flexible dual Filter section, 32-slot modulation matrix, and dual Insert and dual Master effects allowing a lifetime of sonic explorations. The CV/GATE outputs provides for easy integration with equipment such as modular synthesizers and the USB MIDI and full-sized MIDI DIN connectors takes care of standard connectivity without the need for special cables. The ASM Hydrasynth Explorer can also be powered by 8xAA batteries for true on-the-go mobile operation. Simply put, this is one very powerful compact-sized synthesizer and controller all-in-one for the modern musician. 8-voice polyphonic digital wave morphing synthesizer POLYTOUCH™ Polyphonic Aftertouch, Note on/off velocity keyboard with 37 mid-sized keys Battery powered operation using 8xAA batteries (not included) MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression) compatible Microtuning support via MIDI Tuning Standard files 3 Oscillators per voice with 4 Mutators total 1 Multimode filter and 1 variable LP-BP/Notch-HP filter per voice 640 program locations with Category search CV/Gate interconnectivity Specify laptop isn't included SPECIFICATIONS Type: Polyphonic Wave Morphing Synthesizer Sound Engine Type(s): Wavescan Analog/Digital: Digital Number of Keys: 37 mid-sized keys Type of Keys: ASM POLYTOUCH™ Polyphonic Aftertouch Keyboard, On/Off Velocity-sensitive Other Controllers: Pitch Bend, Mod Wheel Polyphony: 8 voices Number of Presets: 640 Oscillators 3 x Wavescan oscillators (219 Waveforms) 4 x Mutator wave shapers (8 Types) Noise (7 Types) Mutators: 8 Types (FM-Lin, WaveStack, PW-Orig, PW-Squeeze, PW-ASM, Harmonic Sweep, Hard Sync, PhazDiff) Noise: 7 Types (White, Pink, Brown, Red, Blue, Violet, Grey) LFO: 5 per Voice (Sine, Triangle, Saw Up, Saw Down, Square, Pulse27%, Pulse13%, S&H, Noise, Random, Step), Tempo syncable, Semitone Lock Envelopes: 5 per voice, Tempo syncable, Variable trigger sources Filter Types: 1 Multimode Filter (16 types) and 1 Variable LP-BP/Notch-HP filter, series or parallel routing Filters Filter 1: LP Ldr12, LP Ldr24, LP Fat12, LP Fat24, LP Gate, LP MS20, HP MS20, LP 3-Ler, BP 3-Ler, HP 3-Ler, LP Stn12, BP Stn12, HP Stn12, LP 1 Pole, LP 8 Pole, Vowel Filter 2 (LP-BP-HP, LP-Notch-HP) Effects: 9 Insert Effects, 5 Delays, 4 Reverbs.
