Morphor ECHON 6 #4 | Winterdagen

video upload by Winterdagen

"New one on the amazing ECHON 6 :)! This piece starts with a gentle sine wave melody, before I slowly introduce the resonator section. I love synths that have extensive control over the envelope times and shapes and ECHON 6 does exactly that, you can chose 3 different modes for the envelopes, making sure you can make from very plucky sounds to long evolving ones. I love the click in this sound and it sounds great with the resonator section as well.

In the buildup of the piece I introduce some noise into the resonator, you can downsample the noise, and feeding that into the resonator reminds me of one of my favourite synth plugins, Tela from Fors. I never thought I'd be able to make those kind of sounds on an analogue hardware synth, but here we are!

This is such a rewarding synth to play around with, every time I find new sounds and new ways to combine the exciter and resonator sections. Hats off to Morphor!"

Morphor Echon 6 - 6 Voice Analogue Polyphonic Multi-Timbral BBD Synthesizer| Superbooth 2026

video upload by Milk Audio Store

"MORPHOR presents at the Superbooth 2026 the new ECHON 6, the world’s first polyphonic synthesizer based around analogue BBD resonators

Each of its six voices features a discrete BBD delay-line resonator that tracks the keyboard producing organic overtones and complex harmonic depth. Allowing you to excite these resonators in creative ways, Morphor ECHON 6 will generate anything from plucked and bowed strings over leads and basses to big pads and evolving soundscapes. With comprehensive multi-timbral capabilities, a 9×32 modulation matrix and a full analogue signal path, ECHON 6 unites experimental sound design with classic polyphony."

"Huge congratulations to Morphor for having their ECHON 6 win the Innovation Award from Sonic State during Superbooth last week! It's such a special synth and it fully deserves the recognition ❤️

Time for another patch! For this one I made use of ECHON 6's looping envelopes and I dialed in a lot of movement in the mod matrix. One of the four polyphonic lfos is changing the decay times of the envelopes per voice. The decay times, lfo speeds and lfos that I routed to panning are keytracked, which results in unique rhythms and stereo movement for each voice. Sounds quite complex, but it really is so easy to dial in modulation like this on the super intuitive mod matrix.

Hope you like the patch and the music!"

"Matthew of Morpor demonstrates their new ECHON 6 synthesizer at Superbooth 2026. ECHON 6 is a polyphonic synthesizer based around analog BBD resonators, adding resonator-based additive synthesis to more traditional oscillator and filter stages. It also features a host of modulation options, external connectivity, and preset storage."

"This is one of the most beautiful synth sounds I've ever heard.

For this patch on the amazing ECHON 6 synthesizer by Morphor, I'm not using its exciter/synth section at all. The sound comes from its 6 BBD delay lines feedbacking indefinitely. The fact that the people at Morphor got to make BBD delay chips track pitch this well is already wild, but how they also managed to implement the super special glide you're hearing in this patch is beyond me. It sounds so alive!

I made use of ECHON 6's super intuitive and extensive mod section to give this patch some movement; with some LFOs I'm slowly opening and closing the filter in the feedback path and moving the voices in the stereo field. I applied keytracking to the LFO speeds making sure that each voice has different movements and a different place in the stereo field. I love that you can route keytracking to anything on ECHON 6.

I did use a fair bit of Valhalla Vintage Verb for this patch as the synth doesn't have an internal reverb. A gliding patch like this really benefits from some time based effects.

Every time I sit down with ECHON 6 for a bit, a new sound that I've never made on any other synth arises, it's so cool! I've made a lot more music with it and I'm super exited to show you.

I'm off to Superbooth now, I''ll be back with a new video next week! If you happen to be at Superbooth as well and want to say hi, feel free to shoot me a message on Instagram."

"I feel like I'm in synth heaven these days. I was lucky enough to get my hands on the new ECHON 6 from Morphor, which is a gorgeous sounding, super unique synth: a 6 voice polyphonic analogue BBD resonator synthesizer. Yep, that's quite the mouth full. In a nutshell it's one part analogue poly synth, one part analogue BBD chip physical modeling synth.

I've been a big fan of physical modeling kind of synths for some time, and Morphor's take on this concept is the most special one I've come across so far. I know this type of synthesis mostly from either quite complex plugins, or Eurorack stuff such as Rings and Surface. Morphor has managed to take this concept into an analogue desktop format and it's super special. In this little sketch I'm exploring quite typical karplus-strong like plucks, but feeding in some sine wave oscillator, having full ADSR control over the the exciter, and having BBD chips as resonators, makes for a super expressive sound.

Apart from its amazing sound, ECHON 6 is also beautifully built. One of the most sturdy, smooth and well built synths I have ever come across. One of its superpowers is that it also has an absolutely amazing and intuitive modulation section, which I'll tell you more about in some following videos (I've been making a lot!). Thanks so much for letting me explore this beauty, Morphor!

ECHON 6: Turning Time Into Sound

video upload by OoraMusic and Morphor

"ECHON 6 is a unique six-voice analog instrument built around bucket brigade delays, where sound is generated through feedback and time itself becomes part of the synthesis process.
In this video, see how exciters, resonators, and controlled feedback interact to create evolving textures, chords, and hypnotic patterns—from delicate atmospheres to raw, atonal sequences.

This is not meant to be a technical demo, but a sonic exploration.

No screens, no shortcuts—just a deep, hands-on approach to shaping sound."

"Last week Boris from ‪@morphor.radical.acoustics‬ explained in a lot of detail how to operate this huge and deep machine - unfortunately I only remember a few of the basics. Nevertheless I wanted to create some kind of patch before diving head first into the manual for ECHON 6.

(a bit of reverb and stereo delay were added in post-production)

Morphor ECHON 6 BBD Resonator Synth Now Open for Pre-Orders

Morphor's ECHON 6 pre-orders are now open at Perfect Circuit

Press release follows:

Morphor marks upcoming availability of ECHON 6 as world’s first polysynth based around analogue BBD resonators by announcing opening of pre-orders

GHENT, BELGIUM: having twice turned heads and opened ears thanks to show-stealing showcases at SUPERBOOTH25, May 8-10, FEZ-Berlin, Germany and Machina Bristronica 2025, September 27-28, Bristol, UK, Morphor marks upcoming availability of its eagerly-awaited ECHON 6 — being billed as the world’s first polyphonic synthesizer based around BBD (Bucket-Brigade Delay) resonators, building upon the Belgium-based collective of artists, engineers, and musicians with a passion for creative sound experience and radical acoustic ideas’ illustrious Eurorack expertise in that area as its inaugural standalone (rack-mountable) desktop design — by announcing the opening of pre-orders as of October 23…

As an ANALOGUE POLYPHONIC MULTI-TIMBRAL BBD SYNTHESIZER — helpfully highlighted by the on point wording worked tastefully into its fitting front panel design’s execution, ECHON 6 brings the principals of modal synthesis into the analogue domain. Far from reimagining a digital concept with modern analogue circuitry, it readily redefines how resonance and excitation can interact. And as the world’s first polyphonic synthesizer based around BBD resonators, no less, each of its six voices features a discrete BBD RESONATOR that tracks the keyboard, producing organic overtones and complex harmonic depth. Duly allowing its users to excite those resonators in creative ways, ECHON 6 can generate anything from plucked and bowed strings over leads and basses to big pads and evolving soundscapes. Combining comprehensive multi-timbral capabilities, a 9 x 32 modulation matrix, a full analogue signal path, and a one-knob-per-function approach, ECHON 6 ultimately unites experimental sound design with classic polyphony. Indeed, its architecture invites exploration at every stage of that analogue signal path.

I like the idea of bringing esoteric modules to destop and stand along synth designs. There have been systems built around eurorack modules in the past, but I'm hoping we might start seeing more of this in the future. This with a built-in keyboard would be a dream to explore while kicking back in the recliner.
