Felix Visser, the Man Behind Synton Has Passed Away

Some sad news in. Felix Visser, the man behind Synton and such synth clasics as the Syrinx, Fenix, 3000 series modular, and more, has passed away. He recently worked with This Is Not Rocket Science on their Fenix synthesizer as well as the inspiration behind the AnalogFX SER-2020. We lost one of the greats, a synth pioneer.

via Wikipedia:

"Synton was a manufacturer and distributor of high-end electronic music equipment in the Netherlands. They were one of the principal importers of music equipment from E-Mu, Ensoniq, and Fairlight in Europe. Felix Visser, the founder of Synton began the company in 1973 after purchasing an EMS Synthi AKS and setting out to produce similar equipment with more of the functionality that he was looking for in an analog synth. Eventually, the company developed Synton Syntovox vocoders as well as the System 2000 and System 3000 modular synthesizers that were sold to Karlheinz Stockhausen and distributed in the United States by Bob Moog's Big Briar Inc. In 1983, Felix Visser, product specialist Marc Paping, and designer Bert Vermeulen created the Synton Syrinx, a monophonic analog synthesizer that contained unique features such as a metal touchplate for manipulating sound as well as a formant filter."

The image on the left is a screenshot from an interview with him at the 2018 Soundmit synth event (embedded below and previously featured here).

See the Synton label for numerous posts featuring his creations.

Novation Mininova Ambient with loop station

video upload by Blossom Bisquits

"The Novation MiniNova is a powerful, compact synthesizer known for its surprisingly deep sound engine—the same one found in the larger UltraNova. It is particularly famous for its vocal processing and "Animate" performance buttons.

Here is a breakdown of its key features in English:

Core Sound Engine
Powerful Synth Engine: A versatile engine capable of up to 18-note polyphony and 5 effects per patch.

Oscillators: Features 3 oscillators per voice, including classic analog waveforms, 36 wavetables, and 20 digital waveforms.

Filters: 14 different filter types, including low-pass, high-pass, and band-pass, with various slope settings.

Modulation: 20 modulation slots to link synth modules together, plus 3 LFOs and 6 envelope generators.

Vocal Processing (VocalTune & Vocoder)
VocalTune: Includes a built-in pitch correction effect to achieve that "auto-tuned" vocal sound.

12-band Vocoder: Comes with a dedicated gooseneck microphone to create classic robotic voice effects.

Voice Processor: You can also run external instruments through its filters and effects via the audio input.

Performance Controls
Animate Buttons: 8 backlit "Animate" buttons that allow you to "warp" and trigger modulation in real-time.

Pitch & Mod Wheels: Tactile wheels for expressive playing.

Large Filter Knob: A dedicated, oversized cutoff knob for instant sonic control.

Arpeggiator: A built-in 33-pattern arpeggiator with real-time editing.

Hardware & Connectivity
Mini-Keys: 37 velocity-sensitive mini-keys for a compact footprint.

Patch Storage: Space for 384 onboard patches (256 factory sounds included) and additional storage via computer software.

I/O Ports: * 1/4" Jack output (Stereo)

1/4" Mono input (to process external gear)

Headphone output

MIDI In/Out

USB port (for MIDI and patch management)

XLR input (for the gooseneck mic)"
