The ASM Hydrasynth Deluxe is the new flagship Hydrasynth. Offering a dual-engine setup with a total of 16 voices plus an all new 73-note keybed featuring ASM's much sought after PolyTouch polyphonic aftertouch functionality, clearly in a class of its own. With essentially two Hydrasynths in one instrument, KeySplit and Dual voice mode patches with 8 independent voices each are possible. You also have separate balanced stereo audio outputs for each of the two parts. The easily accessible 4 octave ribbon controller adds for truly expressive playing. The Hydrasynth Deluxe of course offers CV/GATE I/O for interfacing to modular and other voltage controlled synths. There are a ton of potential for sound creation, using ASM's WaveScan oscillators together with the Mutator waveshaping section and user configurable filters. A plethora of LFO's and Envelope's plus Insert and Master Effects makes this a dream sound creation tool and quite possibly the ultimate synthesizer and controller combo for your rig.
