EowaveMagma Analogue Bassline Synthesizer

MAGMA is an analogue bassline synthesizer inspired by classical synths from the 1980s. It offers the possibility to mix 4 different waveforms (saw, square, sub, noise). The 24 dB low-pass filter is also inspired from classical filters from the 80s.

To this particular sound of the 80s, we added a touch of modernity with modern controls and parameters saving features. The 16 steps sequencer has 4 rows: 1 for the notes and 3 freely assignable to a parameter of your choice that enables to create living sequences with sonorities like Vince Clark or Yann Hammer. 

Oscillator

• Analogue VCO with square saw sub (sub can be 1 or 2 octaves below the master freq), noise.
• VCO can be modulated by LFO and PW
• Variable glide
• Mixer to mix the 4 waveforms

Envelopes

• 2 envelopes ADSR modulate respectively the amplitude and the filter cutoff frequency
• Attack goes from 2ms to 10s

Filter

• Analogue voltage controlled low pass filter
• External audio input with a trimmer to feed the filter
• 24dB low pass filter: Roland style for a classical 80s sound
• Filter can be modulated by Envelope 2, Keyboard, LFO

VCA

• VCA is controlled by Envelope 1

LFO

• LFO with 8 waveforms (triangle, ramp up, ramp down, square, random, digital noise, staircase up, staircase down)

Connections

• Audio in
• Audio out
• MIDI in
• USB (for software update and MIDI in&out)

Sequencer

• 16 steps sequencer with LED
• 4 rows: 1 row controls gates and notes
• 3 other rows are freely assignable to any parameter of the front panel
• Swing and shuffle per note
• You can transpose the sequencer with an external MIDI keyboard.
