"A performance synthesizer with a simple interface and several complex oscillators and filters.
A multitouch keyboard gives great control on the sound, not achievable with classic synths, while a "Theremin" mode adds realtime modulation possibilities.
Thirty oscillator modes, from classical shapes to frequency modulation and more.
Includes lowpass filters with resonance and drive for classic squelchy synth sounds and two vowel filters for voice-like effects.
Internal effects: multimode drive, mono and stereo chorus, mono and stereo delay.
100 slots for presets, sound libraries can be transferred to/from the computer, for infinite sound possibilities."

Note the Wavetables in the screen below.

  1. I wonder if they're real wavetables, lists of multiple waveforms each as in PPG/Waldorf/etc, or just individual digital waveforms.

  2. They are more complex than wavetables.

    - "wavetable": morphing shapes, from dull to rich
    - "discrete summation formulae" aren't tables, they are evolving formulae
    - "waveshaper" are based on Chebychev polinomials
    - "fm" are 4 operators frequency modulation
    - "noise" is discrete summation + white noise
    - "PWM" is an extended pulse width modulation (not just on sawtooth but on richer waveform)
