With the completion of the '14 Analogsynthesizer, a long-fostered Vermona dream comes true: the design and realization of an uncompromising synthesizer for instrumentalists.

Marriage of ergonomics and sound
For Vermona, 'expressive play' requires a balanced relationship between performance virtuosity and sound design. In the '14 Analogsynthesizer, these factors come together as equals: keyboard, pitch and modulation wheels are incomplete without the other controls and switches on the panel, which offer direct access to each individual sound-shaping parameter of the synthesis engine.

The '14 Analogsynthesizer is perfectly suited for distinctive solo and bass sounds, including dynamic and subtle sonic variations that are completely under your control at any time.

Uncompromising circuit implementation
The components responsible for the sound-generation and -shaping are based on the tried and tested circuits of Vermona's PERfourMER MKII and Mono Lancet '15 synthesizers. That said, they did not just bring over those circuits as is but have adapted and refined them specifically for the '14 Analogsynthesizer. Besides stability and musicality, Vermona paid great attention to intuitive and practical scaling of each and every sound parameter.

The '14 Analogsynthesizer follows the classic subtractive synthesis structure: a versatile lowpass filter molds the raw sound created by two powerful analog oscillators. As is typical for Vermona instruments, the sound is warm, round and classy and stands out in the mix.

Handmade in Vermona's Electroacoustic Manufacture in Germany
There are hundreds of steps in the creation of a single '14 Analogsynthesizer, from the assembly of the circuit boards to the final, rigorous quality assurance of the finished instrument. Without exception, these steps are carried out with skilled craftsmanship and expert precision at Vermona's Elektroakustische Manufaktur in Erlbach, Germany.
