Diverse dual synthesis instrumentation

Built upon ASM's renowned Hydrasynth engine, Diosynth's dual synthesis capabilities begin with two WaveScan oscillators, equipped with 219 waveforms for versatile sound building. Also onboard are 16 Hydrasynth filter models, a noise generator, 5 LFOs, 5 envelopes, and a 32-slot modulation matrix. The result? A fully operational Hydrasynth engine ready at your command, complete with onboard sample instruments such as flutes, piccolos, clarinets, saxophones, and more for authentic performance. Complete with a set of authentic keys and controls and the ability to swap fingering modes to match that of saxophones, flutes, recorders, and trumpets, summoning the sounds of Hydrasynth has never been easier for dedicated orchestra musicians and experimental synthesists alike.
