CreamWare Minimax ASB Authentic Sound Box Synthesizer

From 1970 to 1981, over 13,000 Minimoogs were built: thank you, Dr. Moog! That would seem to be a lot of units, but in hindsight it was not enough. Many more people wanted it, but missed out for whatever reason. If you missed out, no problem the Minimax ASB Sound Box Synthesizer is yours!

OK, it's not the original. But this is as close as you can get. The Sound: digitally re-mastered down to each detail. A full fat, dynamic Filter, which provides grip, keeps you and your sound warm, whistles like a teapot on a steam oven, and still knows about the truth behind over-modulation.

Classic filter emulates vintage analog sounds for instant nostalgia. 3 LFOs/Envelopes per voice provide heavenly modulation.

Also features 4-octave velocity- and aftertouch-sensitive keyboard with octave-shifting capability.

Dave Smith Instruments Evolver Analog Synthesizer

Synth guru Dave Smith of Dave Smith Instruments designed the Evolver Analog Synthesizer to create entirely original sounds from the interaction of analog and digital electronics, especially with the extensive use of tunable feedback. When things get weird, the Evolver Synthesizer's analog circuitry keeps the signal in line just enough to make wild sounds instead of pain. And the feedback is constantly moving differently in each path, providing some very cool stereo ambiance to the sounds.

Beneath the cool-blue exterior of the Korg TRITON Extreme 76-Key Workstation lurks a red-hot 160MB of clean, crisp 48kHz wave ROM 5 times the ROM of the classic TRITON! This massive ROM includes sizzling new samples expressive guitars (both acoustic and electric), woodwind and brass instruments captured with true natural vibratos, stellar organs, authentic choirs and a new concert grand piano are only a few of the highlights. TRITON Extreme also includes the entire sample sets from the best-selling Trance Attack, Orchestral Collection, and Vintage Archives expansion boards; the best material from the Dance Extreme, Studio Essentials, and Pianos/Classic Keyboards collections; and, of course, the complete TRITON Studio sample set.
