Not sure if this is a one off or if it will make it to production. I'll let you know more when I know more. For now we have some high res pics. Click them for the full size shots. You can see two oscillators, a filter, lfo, env, white noise, vca & modulation routings. Oscillator 1 has a Frequency knob and switches for Envelope and LFO modulation. Oscillator 2 has Frequency and PWM knobs and an additional knob that looks like it is either for mod amount or fine tune; below it is a MOD 1-2 switch with AC DC options. To the right are switches for waveform (Pulse & Saw), Sync, PWM, ENV, and LFO. The filter has Cutoff & Resonance knobs and switches for Highpass, Bandpass and Lowpass modes, as well as ENV and LFO modulation. The LFO has Speed and Amount knobs, and switches for Wave shape and High & Low frequency settings. If you look at the Wave switches you'll notice there are two of them. Not sure how that works. The Envelope has Attack and Release knobs and an Amount knob and Trigger switches for Manual, Gate and Repeat. The bottom row has a Mixer section with knobs for Osc 1, Osc 2 and White Noise. To the right of that is a VCA Initial amount knob with ENV and LFO modulation switches. There is an overall Volume knob on the top left of the unit. On the back we have jacks for VCF (not sure if this is CV or audio in), GATE, CV1, CV2 and Out.
Update: Two samples and some additional info from Enrique Martinez and jao tek, the creators of Aura:
"The 'vcf' IN is an audio input. The 'mod' knob is the mod amount to modulate the signal of oscillator 1 with osc 2. The LFO has two options of waveforms: ramp or square, inside of the square option is only square and inside the ramp option you can choose between ramp, triangle and saw.
The Aura synth is a MFOS (music from outher space) mini synth based with some modifications like a resonant multimode filter with audio input, V/Oct tracking, electrically tone stability and modulation between the osc1-2, etc. now i´m trying to put a MIDI-CV retrofit inside to make it more versatile and compatible with my studio and live performances.
I´m Industrial Designer and my mate Jao tek is an recognised Artist so we redisignied the knobs and swiches layout and designed a new cabinet and graphic to make it aesthetically more attractive. The sides are polished incense wood with walnut oil.
Only two units manufactured by now but we are thinking about selling the cabinet only or maybe the hole synth is a good idea, we don´t know yet." If you are interested or have any questions, you can reach out to Enrique Martinez or jao tek. Also added his logo below for those interested.
