video upload by ALM TV

"The MCO (mk II) is a highly versatile digital VCO and voice module inspired by 90s/00s digital synths shrunk into just 6HP. It offers a broad collection of unique, high-quality synth voices, each with extensive, customizable parameters. Here we explore a few patches using the new AEIOU voice synthesizer engine. To add the new synthesis engine to your MCO download the latest firmware update! (linked below)

The AEIOU voice is a vocal synthesis engine that uses band pass filters to mimic the formants of a human voice for a range of phonemes. Morphing between the two phoneme parameters using LFOs, the built in envelope or external modulation can produce any sound from robotic whisper textures, to background chatter, to simple pronounced words.

The MCO is designed to be familiar, quick and easy to use with a high resolution colour display and a rich visual user interface. Each voice includes extensive customizable parameters that can be directly controlled or modulated through assignable internal and external sources. Certain per-voice parameters support audio-rate modulation, including FM, sync, and DSP. Each voice also supports up to four-voice chords, external-triggered envelopes, multiple LFOs, and dual audio outputs for comprehensive desktop like synth functionality.
