Product description
ZeKit is a hand-assembled 4 voice paraphonic microsynth, with digital oscillators and a 12dB/oct low & band-pass VCF. Additionally, it features a simple step sequencer, an optocoupler VCA and two analog AR envelopes.
You play this tiny machine via MIDI (notes & clock) and with its physical knobs for Cutoff, Attack, Decay, Accent, Release and Level. External audio sources can be mixed in or be processed through the VCF and VCA.
Like all Fred’s Lab synths, the ZeKit has a great sound for its size and prize.
