Vectra

The four oscillators are digital. Besides the "standard" waveforms and pink/white noise, you'll find another 500 digital waveforms plus some unusual modulation options. All Oscs can be controlled and modulated independently. Meaning: Future Retro's synth can be played monophonic or paraphonic. There are plenty of Modulation Sources: five LFOs and 4 Envelopes, Keyboard, Arpeggiator, Sequencer...and of course the four joysticks (Bend/Mod, Mixer, Filter, X/Y).

The Osc section is followed by an analog multimode filter and VCA. The filter loves to sink its teeth into the overtone-rich digital waveforms and adds significantly to the Vectra's charm.

All parameters are easy to reach. MIDI is also integrated. With the Vectra's hands-on approach, you can lose yourself in the 80s/90s sound cosmos of this synth in no time.
