VERMONA Synthesizer - vintage analog monophonic vs Darth NoiseLab


Published on Dec 25, 2015 NoiselabCH

"VERMONA Synthesizer, the only analog mono-synth from former East Germany built during 1983 - 1990 in the 'VEB Klingenthaler Harmoniewerke'.

Classic 2-VCOs - VCF - VCA system with it's own character, good for leads, atmos, spooky sounds. In opposite to most russian synths from that time, the 24db/oct filter is smooth and warm, less harsh and agressive. A synth that create that somewhat strange mellow atmosphere I associate with that particular era...

VERMONA Synthesizer recorded directly into DAW, partly thru a delay (BOSS GT-6B) and added a little reverb from the DAW. No other dynamics or effects used.

In my view, you can get some really good spooky sounds and atmos out of this synth, but its real strength are lead sounds, simply wonderful!

There are some Midi-retrofits available for the VERMONA Synthesizer and I guess it shouldn't be too difficult to add a CV/Gate in with little soldering skills (nothing for Darth NoiseLab for sure :-)

A unique rare synth (1000 units were produced), underrated probably because it's not a bass monster. But it's a warm atmospheric sounding piece of synthesizer history with great lead capabilities.

Be the synthforce with you...
