Specification
Polyphony
True 5 voice polyphonic with option to polychain any two COBALT5S synthesisers for 10
voice polyphony.
MPE
Supports MPE-compatible MIDI controllers, allowing you to apply polyphonic control and
expression to individual notes
Oscillators
2 independent oscillator groups, each with selectable algorithms, self-contained oscillator
cross-modulation and control
40 algorithms including a variety of complex analogue synthesis techniques, built in cross-
modulation (SYNC, RM, and many more), PWM, smooth Morphing between VA waves,
bit crushing and filtered noise
Each algorithm has carefully curated controls that make complex synthesis simple with
just two parameters
Extended Oscillator Drift
Filter
Four-pole morphable ladder filter, with switchable configurations
Modulation
Three dedicated envelope generators for AMP, MOD and FILTER that can be accessed
independently or all three simultaneously including negative (reverse) versions for MOD
and FILTER ENVs
Two LFO’s with tempo sync (one poly, one global) with seven different shapes
Eight assignable modulation slots and four additional fixed modulation routings for
common assignments with 11 modulation sources and 41 modulation destinations
Specification
Sequencer and Arpeggiator
Polyphonic Real-time and Step sequencer with 512 notes and four recordable/editable
parameter animations (Delay FX, LFO’s, sequencer and arpeggiator can be either clocked
internally or externally)
Step Sequencer holds up to 64 steps, 5 notes per step, 4 lanes of Parameter-Lock style
animation, Step Input mode, multiple playback modes including gate modes and rest
function
Built-In sophisticated programmable arpeggiator of 32 steps with rest capability and
random up to 2048 steps before repeating
FX
