MODAL ELECTRONICS COBALT8X

COBALT8 explores the full creative potential of analog waveforms. This powerful and inspiring instrument reinvents the aesthetics of analog sounds and invites musicians, producers, and sound designers to delve into a new era of textures far beyond the limits.

In addition to the innovative oscillator engine, COBALT8 incorporates a new 4-pole 'LADDER' filter with Morphing. Combined with Modal's unparalleled modulation options, stimulating realtime/step sequencer, incredible arpeggiator, 61-note FATAR Premium keyboard, MPE-compatible control, studio-quality effects, and MODALapp integration, COBALT8 is the perfect synthesizer for anyone who wants a versatile electronic music instrument to play vintage synth sounds and is eager to delve into new dimensions of sound.

Waveforms: sine, pulse, triangle and sawtooth, 40 different algorithms including: complex analog synthesis techniques, built-in cross modulation (SYNC, RM and many others), PWM, uniform morphing between VA waves, bit crushing, filtered noise.

Three dedicated envelope generators for AMP, MOD and FILTER that can be accessed independently or all three simultaneously, including negative (inverse) versions for MOD and FILTER ENV

Real-time polyphonic sequencer with 512 notes and four recordable/editable parameter animations (delay effects, LFO, sequencer and arpeggiator can be synchronized internally or externally)

Polyphonic step sequencer with 64 steps, 8 notes per step, 4 lanes of Parameter-Lock style animation, step input mode, multiple playback modes including gate mode and pause function

FX: three incredibly powerful, independent and user-configurable stereo FX engines for Chorus, Phaser, Flanger (Pos), Flanger (Neg), Tremolo, LoFi, Rotary, Stereo Delay, Ping-Pong Delay, X-Over Delay and Reverb, which can be arranged in any order
