Vermona - Mono Lancet Special Edition

The Vermona Mono Lancet SE is a fully analogue desktop synthesiser that focuses on the essentials, drawing its strength precisely from this. Two voltage-controlled oscillators form the sonic foundation and can be precisely detuned against each other, giving the instrument remarkable depth and liveliness. In combination with the characteristically warm Vermona low-pass filter, this creates an extremely powerful yet clearly defined sound that we greatly appreciate.

The interface is logically structured and directly accessible, with no nested menus or hidden functions. Every parameter is immediately accessible, making the Mono Lancet SE a highly performative instrument – both in the studio and in a live context. The high-quality desktop case in a striking blue tone with ivory-coloured controls underlines the synthesiser's unique character. A special feature of the Mono Lancet: the optional Modular Dock, a Eurorack module that allows you to integrate the Mono Lancet into your modular system!

Despite its compact dimensions, the Mono Lancet SE impresses with a surprisingly large, confident sound and tonal authority. It is recommended for anyone who appreciates uncompromising analogue sound, clear structure and an inspiring, immediate way of working.

modulations

• LFO waveforms: sawtootch, ramp, square, triangle, sine, sample and hold
• LFO frequency: ca. 0,05 Hz - 250 Hz
• Envelope: Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release

MIDI Interface:

• Note on/off
• pitch bend on/off (CC 84): VCO pitch (+/- 4 whole tones)
• modulation wheel on/off (CC 85): pulse width of VCOs
• aftertouch on/off (CC 86): Cutoff-frequency
• Velocity on/off (CC 87): VCA
• Velocity affects additionally the cutoff frequency (CC 88)
• glide switch (CC 89): glide active when playing legato
• legato on off (CC 90): ADSR will not be re-triggered when playing legato
