PWM Mantis // It's not a synth.. it's a time machine // Review and Demo


video upload by Starsky Carr

"PWM's Mantis has done it again, given us a very unique and characterful synth full of vibe. Its a mono/duo/quad hybrid, with digital oscillators (16 in total), 2 analog filters and a whole host of really interesting bits and pieces.

Following in the Malevolent's footsteps it continues PWMs affordable ethos, while hammering home a tonne of vintage tones. Thenraw sound of this is gorgeous and they've not smoothed the rough edges too much which gives us some Microwave, Prophet VS, PPG digital sheen."

PWM Mantis Quick Look


video upload by Starsky Carr

"WASP - OSCAR - MANTIS. From original thoughts of Chris Huggett, PWM and he worked together on his final designs before his untimely death. PWM have realised his vision plus some extras like the ability to play 4 voices (quad paraphonic) on what was originally a duophonic idea. ... I think!

The PWM Mantis is a unique synth .. a bit like a vintage synth being brought to the market in the 21st century. I say almost like a vintage because it does have all the modern features you'd expect."

"We caught up with Paul Whittington at GearFest UK 2024, held at Tile Yard. Paul introduced the latest production unit of Mantis, which is now available in the UK music stores starting Monday. The unit includes quad and duophonic modes, along with new firmware that allows for syncable arpeggios and LFOs. Paul mentioned an upcoming review and expressed excitement about the detailed insights expected from it. Overall, Mantis is now fully featured and ready for its users.

In our conversation, Paul shared his favorite patches, particularly highlighting one titled "Beach Dazed" which imitates the sound of the ocean. He demonstrated various patches and explained the different modes of the instrument, including mono, duo, and quad modes, each offering unique setups of the filters and voice paths. The MSRP is set at £1349, and there is a 10% discount for GearFest attendees. Paul concluded by emphasizing the melodic advantage of having multiple voices in the instrument."

Dark jam with Ableton Push 3, PWM Malevolent, and Hologram Chroma Console


video upload by Jay Hosking

"A live synthesizer jam performed entirely on hardware.

This is the third track I've made specifically for the Push 3, and I'm having a better and better time as I go. There are a few behind-the-scenes videos about this particular setup over on my Patreon.

The idea is that the set/album is playable live without requiring too much mental juggling, but since I'm only presenting them as individual songs, I thought I'd add in the PWM Malevolent for fun. The Malevolent adds well to the overall feeling I'm going for in these songs, and the Chroma Console helps shape the sound even more. Makes me wonder what I could add next time for fun!

Looking forward to playing these all as a set. Hopefully soon!

Thanks for listening.

Reason 12 (behind the scenes) — a lot of the songwriting and structuring
Ableton Push 3 — most sounds, effects, and performance
PWM Malevolent through Hologram Chroma Console — gritty synth bass thing

Performed and recorded live, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.
