MODAL Electronics presents the CARBON8, a new type of experimental synthesiser

With the CARBON8, the manufacturer MODAL Electronics presents an 8-voice digital synthesiser that challenges you to creative sound adventures. Equipped with a state-of-the-art sound engine and two oscillators with 56 digital core waveforms each, the CARBON8 opens up a wide range of unique algorithms and wavetables for sonic diversity. The 37 velocity-sensitive keys with aftertouch (Fatar) enable an expressive performance. The CARBON8 supports MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression) with a matching controller to add even more nuance to your playing style.

A razor-sharp OLED display shows the current settings of the controls and their sonic effects at all times. A total of 34 different filter types are available, including modern and vintage filters that shape the sound precisely and give it the necessary “analog warmth”. The CARBON8 also scores with 3 LFOs, which provide over 15 different waveforms and expand the sound design.

The CARBON8's powerful features include an integrated 512-note polyphonic sequencer and a flexible arpeggiator, allowing you to creatively animate sounds and enhance them with up to 26 high-quality effects simultaneously. All of the synthesizer's functions can be conveniently edited and managed on screen using the free MODALapp.
