A true nod to the legendary Mono/Poly, the Multi/Poly takes the idea of multiple independent oscillators and propels it into the modern era. Its analog modeling reproduces micro-variations and circuit interactions, while independent voice tuning delivers the much sought-after organic instability. Within the lineup, it stands as the ideal bridge between vintage analog grit and the flexibility of advanced digital synthesis.
The Multi/Poly is aimed at demanding composers, sound designers, and keyboardists, from intermediate to expert levels. It excels in electro, techno, ambient, synthwave, pop, and film music, offering textures ranging from subtle to radical. Its robust design and real-time controls make it a reliable ally both in the studio and live, for sonic exploration as well as ready-to-play sets.
The Multi/Poly's hybrid engine combines meticulous analog modeling with modern digital sources. Each program can stack four layers, each equipped with four oscillators offering traditional waves, wavetables, and a "waveshaper" oscillator for morphing and harmonic distortion.
The filter section brings together models inspired by the MS-20 and Polysix, along with new virtual circuits for a broad palette of responses: aggressive crunch, vintage warmth, or contemporary precision. Modifiable envelopes and flexible LFOs feed an intuitive modulation matrix.
Designed for the stage, the Multi/Poly allows layering up to four programs per performance. Kaoss Physics, via an X/Y pad, offers immediate gestural interaction, while Motion Sequencing 2.0 records and replays parameter movements to evolve your textures over time. "Set Lists" facilitate navigation between songs and setups.
On the processing side, 33 studio-quality effects-reverbs, delays, chorus, and VOX amp modeling-add depth and personality. Dedicated knobs ensure quick and expressive handling for smooth transitions and controlled crescendos.
