"Hello guys! You've been asking for a long time, and I finally got around to recording the tube synthesizer MARS through a line-in. Sorry I couldn't do it earlier; there was a lot of organizational work to handle in these challenging times. This is just a small first attempt."
A few pics and details follow. You can find additional posts featuring the MARS Tube Synthesizer here.
Polyphonic synthesizer based on vacuum tubes.
MARS - the first polyphonic synthesizer based on vacuum tubes. The power and flexibility of oscillators based on the famous R-2R DAC TDA1387, combined with the original fully tube audio path based on the APPARATUS synthesizer circuit, allow you to create a wide range of sounds from punchy aggressive FM leads and acid basslines to soft classic pads and strings. The synthesizer supports full software control and easily integrates into any DAW using the original plugin. All synthesizers are assembled by hand and produced in limited quantities.
Specifications:
Compact RACK format, 5 units high
Fully tube audio path based on the APPARATUS synthesizer
Four oscillators operating in modes: BASIC (Sine, Triangle, Sawtooth, Fixed Pulse Width 1/2, 1/4, 1/8); PULSE; ENSEMBLE and Noise with Hi-Pass and Low-Pass filters
Voltage-controlled tube filter of the second order with self-oscillation with overload
Voltage-controlled amplifier, following the traditional architecture of tube opto compressors
Triode asymmetric overdrive
Indicator based on Nixie lamps
Full software control using the plugin
Four channels of 4xCV and Gate for integration with Eurorack format synthesizers
External Input for processing the audio signal of external audio devices
