PM-202 is a meticulously crafted hybrid synthesizer, inspired by the iconic sound engines of the early '80s, including the SH-101 and MC-202. Enhanced with a Buchla-inspired complex oscillator and a wide array of modulation capabilities, PM-202 takes vintage analog synthesis to the next level, combining the warmth of classic sounds with cutting-edge digital control.
Features
Vintage-Inspired Oscillator Section
- Emulates the iconic SH-101/MC-202 sound engines.
- Three primary sound sources (Saw, Square, Sub Oscillator) with independent level controls for fine-tuned blending.
- Sub oscillator with switchable octaves and pulse width settings for powerful low-end textures.
- Noise generator for adding grit and texture.
Complex Oscillator Modulation
- Buchla-inspired modulation capabilities including FM and AM modes.
- Selectable modulation shapes (sine, triangle, sawtooth, square) with morphing capabilities.
- Dedicated controls for timbre, modulation frequency, and modulation depth.
- Modulation routing options for direct output or as a modulation source.
Advanced Filter Section
- Self-oscillating resonant low-pass filter with precise control over cutoff and resonance.
- Envelope and LFO modulation for dynamic filter effects.
Dynamic Envelopes
- ADSR envelopes for amplitude and filter modulation, allowing nuanced control over attack, decay, sustain, and release.
- Easily create everything from tight plucks to evolving pads.
Powerful LFO and Modulation
- Multi-shape LFO (triangle, square) with adjustable rate and depth for modulation of pitch, filter, or PWM.
- Synchronizable with host tempo for rhythmic modulation.
Integrated Sequencer and Step Modulation
- 8-step sequencer with step modulation for pitch, filter, or waveform parameters.
- Adjustable step timing and sync modes (self or host sync).
- Visual step matrix for intuitive control over sequence patterns.
Built-In Effects
- Delay with time, feedback, and mix controls for adding depth and space.
- Reverb with adjustable feedback and coloration for lush ambient textures.
Jumble Feature for Randomization
- Randomize modulation, envelope, and sequencer settings for instant inspiration.
Customizable Workflow
- Signal routing for layering or isolating oscillators and effects.
- Fine-tuned controls for every parameter, enabling deep sound design possibilities.
