Meng Qi Squishable Modular Synth Workstation


via Meng Qi

"Squishable Modular Synth Workstation is a self-contained modular synth instrument. It has 3 parts that are all essential to the playing and composing experience.

Sidrassi is a analog modular synthesizer with 7 independent voices, each voice has 6 CV patch points, thus you can modulate each voice with audio signal and gesture signal from other voices. Sidrassi is designed by Peter B (http://www.ciat-lonbarde.net) and SMSW uses Peter’s original PCB.

VM (Voltage Memory) is interally connected to control pitch of 4 voices / main pitch / timber of Sidrassi. It provides save/recall feature, and it offers a vast number of modularized recalling methods. Thanks to it, SMSW can save 84 sets of tuning, so you can play complex chords, melodies and tonal music pieces. As well as complex automated pitch changes controlled internally or externally .

2 of AM (Arcade Manifold) provide a very versatile realtime re-patching and mixing system. And the format jumber feature allows SMSW to be connected to external modular system with ease*. Thanks to them, SMSW allows composers and players to travel anywhere between angelic triangle choir and demolic modulated chaos in absolute realtime, as well as connecting your SMSW to your other modular systems.



Designed based on Meng Qi’s vast experience of Sidrassi building.

*for safety of SMSW, please keep the incoming CV in 0-9v range."
