The http://www.hypersynth.com/xenophone.html is about to be released. I’m curious if anyone is going to get it. The specs are very cool imho.
I see he’s cleaned up the design of the front panel too. The sound is very impressive - really nice squelchy filter, Mrs Browl is grooving on it which is a very good sign
3 LFOs and and 8-way modulation matrix are great, plus several kinds of FM and multiple ring mods…I downloaded the editor and this thing looks really cool. Plus the more I listen to it the more impressed I am…I just went from Interested to WANT - this thing has a huge range, from classic 80s to contemporary sounding weirdness.
It’s not cheap but it seems like great value, I can’t think of a more fully featured monosynth. The Evolver comes closest but I think this has more going on in the oscillator and filter department.
I am surprised that there is not much discussion here about the Xenophone. On paper it seems incredible, the demos are good. It really has me thinking about picking one up sometime but I definitely to hear what people think after they are in the wild first.
The use of encoders on what appears to be a knob per function monosynth is a little strange!
