some sounds resonate with us in mysterious, intriguing ways, as if they were part of something bigger, as if they were holding answers.
ALT is an analog synthesizer designed to expand the realms of sound design, through intricate motion.
preorders available on kickstarter on may 22nd.
Voices
ALT hosts five voices, each with different waveform shaping possibilities, each offering stereo panning, enabling a rich, spatial audio experience.
a harmonic quantizer lets you chose scales, and play beautiful melodies, either with the faders, or with quantized pitch modulation.
Alter
sound alteration can be achieved with a stereo filter inspired by the Korg MS-20, and a wild stereo delay with infinite feedback.
Movement
initiate sound motion with a modulation pin matrix.
the matrix has 4 adjustable modulation sources: 2 LFO, 1 random step generator, 1 envelope follower; and 17 destinations.
light and sound sensors make it react and evolve with environmental stimuli.
all of which allow for complex rhythmic patterns, unheard harmonies, and precise sound design.
more details to come."
"Philosophy
cyma forma is a community of 2 people, if that’s a thing.
we are both named vincent (yes), and we think musical instruments are the most poetic, meaningful, magical objects there are, and we couldn’t imagine a better use of our time than inventing new ones.
we believe sound may hold answers, we aspire to make instruments that ask questions.
every instrument and prototype is designed and built in our workshop in paris."
