LL Electronics RozzBox One v2 - 5-Voice Poly Synth

via Noisebug on Ebay

"In Great Condition. Comes w/ extra memory key.

The RozzBox V2 poly w/ tube filter is a 5-voice polyphonic synthesizer with digital oscillators, digital and analog filters on each voice, and one additional all tube filter.

In addition to the the classic design of a 4-oscillator polysynth with analog filters, the RozzBox features some functions that can’t be found on any other synthesizer, such as the Hacker, the chaotic filtermode, and switchable aliasing of the oscillators.

Features:
* 4 digital ocsillators with standard and 16 additional waveforms – hard-sync possible
* Configurable FM engine with 7 algorithms
* Noise, external audio input, ring modulator
* Includes 3 self-resonant Filter-Types:
Digital high pass/low pass filter with resonance and 24dB/octave (4 filter poles)
Analog low pass ladder filter with resonance and 24dB/octave (4 filter poles)
Completely tube-driven analog low pass filter with resonance and 12B/octave (2 filter poles)
* 2 independent filters per voice

* 2 LFOs with standard waveforms and wave tracking, sync with MIDI
* 2 ADSR Envelopes with switchable lin/exp characteristics and trigger modes
* 4 completely independent sequencer lines per voice, each with its own running mode and sychronization settings
* Envelope follower with separate input
* Complex 4-point modulation matrix with 16 sources and 16 destinations
* Complex trigger matrix with unlimited connection count, for interconnection of LFOs, sequencers, envelope triggers, MIDI clock, …
* The switchable “Hacker” adds artificial analog aliasing (tunable)
* Bitreduction / Sample rate reduction
* ‘Chaos’ mode of the digital filter
* Digital hardclipping
* Extensive multimode (up to 5 “Monophonic” sounds)
* Hands-on interface: 27 knobs, 29 slide switches, Full Graphic LED-display
* Individual out for each voice
* Full MIDI control of every parameter
* Compact size: 10″ wide x 6″ deep x 3 1/2″ high (253×150x90mm)

The RozzBox One V2 has the following Features:

Waves: - Standard Waveforms: Saw, Pulse (PWM), Triangle, Wave
- 14 additional waveforms for the OSCs as factory presets
- 2 additional waveforms that can be “drawn“ with the User Interface, storable with each Patch
Sync: Hardsync possible
Other functions: Pitch Tracking of OSC1 can be disabled

Filters
Count: 2 Filters in serial connection
Tube Version only: 3 Filters in serial/parallel connections
Filter 1: - Digital high pass/low pass filter with resonance and 24dB/octave (4 filter poles)
Filter 2: - Analog lowpass ladder filter with resonance and 24dB/octave (4 filter poles)
Filter 3:
Tube Version only - Completely Tube-driven analog lowpass filter with resonance and 12B/octave (2 filter poles)
Filtertracking: individually adjustable
Filtermodes:
Tube Version only: - Digital filter, Transistor filter, serial

The Tube Filter can be switched to be used on Voice 1 (local), or to be used on all Voices (global).
Misc: The two Filters selected can be modulated individually.

Low Frequency Oscillators
Count: 2
Frequency Range: Frequency ranging from very slow to very fast :)
Waveforms: a, Sawtooth, Triangle, Square, Sample&Hold (random generator)
b, Sawtooth, Triangle and
“Wave“ plays one of the 2 user waveforms available
“Wave Tracking Generator“ using one of the 2 user Waveforms to follow the envelopes.

Envelopes
Count: 2
Parameters: Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release
Trigger Modes: single, multi
Shapes available: linear, exponential

Rozzy Modulation Sources
Audio-In: Use that feature for example to modulate the Oscillators Frequency.
Envelope Follower: Uses the Envelope of an incoming signal to generate a Modulation-Signal. (The follower has its own, independent input)
Mixer: Adds the Audio-Signals alltogether. Fine for very weird modulations :)
