Tangle Synth

A powerful semi-modular synth based on blocks chosen from the cream of the Toybox blocks library

Fascinating and deep cross modulation options between the synth's two oscillators can be used to produce complex and rich oscillator timbres. Use the morphing filter with distortion, wave-folding and FM to further sculpt the sound with gritty fiery textures.

The layout of the synth is influenced by popular 'classic' mono-synths, making dialling up basic sounds quick and intuitive. Full modular patching between all the synth's sections is available in 'structure' view, for unlimited sonic possibilities.

Features include:

• Semi modular design makes sketching sound design ideas quick and easy.
• Simple to use central patching-strip for easy routing of modulation sources, plus unlimited sound design possibilities available from the fully modular 'structure' view.
• Based on a set of blocks chosen from the cream of the Toybox blocks library.
• Over 100 presets included by top sound designer Cinningbao.
• A set of templates included based on common synths (like the Roland SH101) for quickly dialling up basic sounds.
• Powerful oscillators take cues from contemporary Eurorack modules, including the Tangle Oscillator: a versatile oscillator block that fuses extreme phase distortion (combining, warping, twisting and repeating basic waveforms to create complex and twisted timbres) with FM synthesis, great for thick, harmonically rich sounds. The oscillator block also features seven lo-fi modes which authentically model vintage digital convertors with gritty noise and jitter, great for old-school digital synth tones.
• Flexible analog modelled filter with a pre or post filter distortion circuit and analog style wave-folding. 8 different analog filter models (based on Moog, Korg, Roland etc) can be chosen from and filter shapes can be flexibly re-ordered and morphed between.
• Four High-quality and innovative effect and processing blocks.
• Powerful modulation blocks, including the Ramp Generator block (based on one half of the Make Noise 'Maths' function generator Eurorack module), three multi-breakpoint modulation lanes, 2 complex LFOs plus randomization and utility blocks.
• A flexible global snapshots system. Snapshots can be stored and morphed for each individual block or for the whole rack.
• Bleeding-edge DSP and analog modelling techniques.
