The Sequential Trigon-6 is a modern polyphonic synthesizer that draws inspiration from the classic analog sounds of the past, especially with its 3-oscillator and ladder-filter design. At its core are three newly designed voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) that offer triangle, saw, and pulse waveforms, combined with a refined version of the ladder filter used in Sequential’s Pro 3 mono synth. The switchable 2/4 pole resonant filter includes dedicated drive and feedback controls, allowing players to easily shape the tone from aggressive and gritty to smooth and creamy. With 6-voice polyphony and the best features of Sequential’s Prophet-6 and OB-6 synths, the Trigon-6 offers unmatched playability and programmability. Its knob-per-function interface ensures intuitive control, while a four-octave semi-weighted keyboard with velocity and aftertouch adds to its performance appeal. The distinctive sound of the 3-oscillator-through-ladder-filter design gives the Trigon-6 a unique presence that bridges vintage warmth with modern flexibility. In addition to its core sound engine, the Trigon-6 features a robust dual effects section with studio-quality reverbs, delays, chorus, flanger, and more. It also includes Poly Mod, which offers creative modulation options with sources like the filter envelope and oscillator 3, expanding the sonic possibilities for sound designers. The Vintage Knob adds another layer of analog authenticity by allowing users to introduce voice-to-voice variations, emulating the unpredictable behavior of classic analog synths. Overall, the Trigon-6 represents a versatile workhorse with a bold and familiar 3-oscillator ladder filter sound, refined for modern musicians. Its combination of portability, performance features, and accessible design makes it an ideal choice for those seeking both classic analog tones and cutting-edge sound design capabilities.
