Basyn Analog Bass Synthesizer


via this auction

"This is the Basyn Analog Bass Synthesizer, a 13 note, 2 oscillator analog bass synthesizer pedalboard, At the heart of the synth is our Basyn Analog Synth, licensed from Cano Electronics excellent Sonosaur. Instead of heavy and bulky organ pedals, it uses heavy duty 1" momentary pushbuttons and comes in a sturdy but lightweight aluminum case that weighs in around 5 lbs.. It features 2 oscillators (each tuned one octave apart), filter controls, full ADSR envelope controls, a VCA and a noise generator. It comes with a 9v 300mA DC power supply. Just plug and go.

Features include:

Two oscillators with digital frequency control for drift-free performance. Oscillator 1 is tuned to 16' (low C = 32.7 Hz), and oscillator 2 is tuned to 8'. A mix pot lets you blend the two oscillator outputs in any ratio you desire.
A pseudo-random noise generator with a cycle time of more than four minutes. Make explosions, wind, timpani, etc.!
Analog waveshaping giving a preset mix of ramp and pulse waveforms, or red (1/f) and white noise.
A REAL analog Attack-Decay-Sustain-Release (ADSR) envelope generator with true exponential decay and release curves for a natural sound.
A REAL, honest-to-God, analog Voltage-Controlled-Filter (VCF)-- NOT a digital substitute! The VCF is a state-variable design with resonance ("Q") control. The filter tracks the pedals and has variable cutoff frequency along with variable sweep control from the ADSR.
A Voltage-Controlled-Amplifier (VCA) that can be controlled from the envelope generator or gated by the pedals.
Eight pots and two switches for creating your own sound. The pots control attack time, decay time, sustain level, release time, oscillator mix, VCF initial frequency, VCF sweep, and VCF resonance. One switch selects either the oscillator outputs or the noise source, and the other switch selects either the ADSR or gate output to control the VCA.
Compact heavy duty case design that fits in a gig bag or micro keyboard case."
