Introducing Suonobuono Polyvera

You can find additional posts featuring Polyvera here.

"Polyvera is Suonobuono's first synthesizer. It is not a copy of old gear, but a modern homage to the iconic wavetable synths and samplers of the early 80s. It combines the characteristic digital artifacts of that era with true analog multimode filters for added warmth and versatility.

Suonobuono is a truly boutique manufacturer designing, prototyping and assembling its products in Stockholm, Sweden.

Magnetic Heart - Defeat (Poem by Kahlil Gibran)

video upload by Magnetic Heart

"A live electronic music performance by Magnetic Heart.

The poem is written by Kahlil Gibran and spoken by Shane Morris (here's to hoping that the Copyright doesn't slap me in the face about this...).

First video with my new setup which has been extended quiet dramatically.
Hardware used:
- Squarp Hapax
- Elektron Analog Four
- Elektron Analog Rytm
- Novation Summit
- Empress Reverb
- Walrus Audio Julianna Chorus
- Suonobuono nABC+ Compressor
- Behringer 1003B Mixer
- Elektron Analog Heat+FX on the master signal

Recorded straight into Ableton, no additional mixing or mastering done there."

"Polyvera is the upcoming synthesizer by boutique Swedish manufacturer Suonobuono. More details will be shared in the coming weeks."

Suonobuono brought us LAZER, a unique laser based controller, back in 2021. See the Suonobuono label below for additional posts.

LAZER + nABC + M jam!

"Spontaneous afternoon jam at #Suonobuono 's lab 👾, a couple of #lazer controlling a #Waldorf #M and #eventide #H9 via MIDI, while the #nABC gives that pumping feeling 💣"

LAZER is a unique laser-based music controller.

Thanks to its rich set of outputs, it can control external MIDI instruments and effects, analog synthesizers and virtual instruments in a DAW such as Ableton Live, Cubase or Logic. It also has an on-board lo-fi oscillator that can drive headphones (for live tracking) or be used as an audio source.

LAZER is completely standalone and does not require a computer. It is ideal for live jams!

The sensor measures the distance from the hand and transforms it into MIDI, analog and audio signals, according to user settings. Its 1mm (circa) resolution and the configurable range up to 50cm allow for precise control of sensitive parameters such as pitch and filter frequency.

LAZER does not require wearing any wearables and can be used in most light conditions with bare hands. It should however be avoided to point strong light sources directly to the sensor. Multiple LAZERs can be used simultaneously without interfering with each other.

Suonobuono LAZER: steering an Eventide Timefactor delay

video upload by SUONOBUONO

"LAZER measures the distance between your hand and its precise laser sensor, and transforms it into MIDI, analog and audio signals, according to user settings. Completely standalone, no need for wearables or external receivers.

In this video, LAZER controls the delay of an Eventide Timefactor pedal, by use of MIDI Control Change messages."

Most importantly, it is a LOT of fun to use it, and it’s pretty cool too!
