PLATO Electro Idiophone

PLATO ELECTRO IDIOPHONE

A new member of the PHILOSOPHICAL ECOSYSTEM - An idiophonic 'piano' that has seen too many David Cronenberg movies:

PLATO is built around two principles...

1. every note has its own pattern sequencer - you can hold a chord and trigger a different rhythm sequence for each note - great for surprising polyrhythms. Each note can also play a different selection of articulations.

2. a network of subtle to dramatic interactions; sounds, frequencies, transients, levels and effects can all interact with each other in surprising ways. It is an instrument you try and steer. Fortunately the complex stuff is under the hood, you use the intuitive GUi to wrangle new ideas and bend new sounds without getting bogged down with details. Merge and melt the unexpected into ravishing new music with a daft grin on your face. .:
