"cyma forma ALT is an analog synthesizer designed to produce drone sounds, soundscapes, and complex generative melodies. It features a system that allows you to intuitively control a wide range of sound sources—including five oscillators, white noise, and a microphone—using faders, knobs, light sensors, and a matrix of physical pins.

"here it is! the complete walkthrough of all the connectivity options and features of RND synth. despite its apparent simplicity, there’s a lot to cover.

9 midi modes, analog sync, 4-track audio over usb, midi cc messages, external hardware sequencing using 4 midi out channels… it hides a lot of features for various workflows.

RND synth - live session with Oda Fiasco Bravo

video upload by cyma forma

"meet our friend, collaborator and artist Oda Fiasco Bravo (@carnavaletmascarade).

for this live session in our workshop, the Digitakt is sending 4 different midi sequences to RND synth (acting as 4 parallel synths), while also playing pre-recorded samples of it.

the model:cycles is sending a midi clock to both the RND synth and the Digitakt while playing its own patterns.

this allows for a lot of layering and complex melodies, as well as additional fx."

Hapax + ALT : A Conversation In Sound

video upload by Squarp instruments and cyma forma

"Last year, our friends at cyma forma released ALT, a synthesizer unlike any other.

Intuitive, delicate, and endlessly surprising, it's the kind of instrument that constantly invites exploration. In this performance, Hapax acts as the conductor, providing structure and direction while leaving ALT free to be played by hand and reveal its unique personality.

A perfect pairing."

Playing Without a Map / Cyma Forma ALT

video upload by OoraMusic

"A performance and reflection on what it means to truly play.
In a world of presets, screens, and precision, this is an exploration of something more fragile — and more human.
Using the Cyma Forma ALT, a 5-voice analog instrument designed for improvisation, I move between structure and freedom, control and surrender.
This is not about building a track.
It’s about being present while sound unfolds.
Improvisation becomes a practice —
of listening, reacting, and letting go of the need to know where you’re going.
No presets. No fixed outcomes.
Just gesture, attention, and the moment."

Cyma Forma ALT & Piano | Winterdagen

video upload by Winterdagen

"Happy Holidays! Here's a little wintery piano improvisation over the top one of the patches I've been making the last couple of days with the gorgeous new Cyma Forma ALT synthesizer.

ALT is a very special synth. The sound is gorgeous, the driven filters sing, the pin matrix and quantizable oscillators are amazing for instantly coming up with ever changing movement and melodies, and the delay is exactly the way I like it; when you push the delay times to longer settings, it's full of characterful crunch and noise. Cyma Forma have done a spectacular job with this inspiring and unique synth and I'm super excited to have it in my studio.

Thanks for listening!"
