Easy to pick up, hard to put down.Two Trautonium inspired floating touch bars allow for continuous volume and pitch control. This expressive interface is paired with a streamlined knob per function synth, so you can start playing right away. Despite the constrained feature set, the sensitive bars allow for weeks, months, and years of rewarding practice.
Go as complex as you like
For experts who want to grow past the included synth, take control of your favorite analog synth with parallel dedicated CV outputs (pitch, gate, push, envelope), and digital synths with USB and TRS polyphonic expressive MIDI output.

This product is our main focus at Sound Workshop, we aim to ship in 6-24 months. In order to get to first customer ship, we are preselling up to 100 units to raise at least $75k. These funds will be used to cover one time expenses like manufacturing tools, test fixtures, consulting fees, and minimum order quantities.
Preorder customers receive:
$100 thank you discount
Lifetime access to our paid Patreon feed
2 year, white glove warranty
To date we have validated the technology with the functional prototype seen in our pictures and videos. We have made four units of this prototype and delighted over 100 early testers. Moving forward we will be repackaging the electronics into the production intent design seen in the computer renderings. We will build the first 100 units in house so that we can focus on quickly iterating through challenges and shipping to you without the added obstacles of bringing up a factory. Your contribution will help make an affordable Trautonium into a reality.
