TherapSid has a kid!
TherapKid is a powerful & affordable duo-phonic synthesizer inspired by the mighty therapSid.
Best of Both
The first generation of SID (6581) had a wonderful gritty distorted filter but the later 8580 had a much stronger filter (more resonance). TherapKid offers a digital take on the best of both worlds with a strong filter resonance and 6581-like gritty tone.
Monophnoic, Duophonic, Chords & Drones
TherapKid has 2 voices, each voice consisting of 4 oscillators.
In duophonic mode you can play 2 notes at once, in mono mode you can detune them. But you can take things further by detuning each of the oscillators individually to form chords or drones.
LO/HI-Fi
While the wavetables are 8Bit, they are processed by a powerful 96MHz 32BIT processor and put out of a 16BIT DAC with oversampling and filtering. This formula of retro sound generated by modern hardware allows for plenty of summing headroom, a rich sounding filter, and complex modulations.
Features:
Set the volume of the 8 waveforms independently*
Tune each of the 8 waveforms independently (chords, drones!)*
Sine wave for pure tones and deep sub bass*
Muti-mode arpeggiator
Ring modulator
