  • Nord Lead

    Virtual analog performance synthesizer family

    Synthesizer · Sweden

    The Nord Lead is a family of virtual analog synthesizers introduced by Clavia in 1995. The original Nord Lead pioneered the 'virtual analog' concept—digitally modeling analog synthesis with knob-per-function control—and its bright red instruments became staples on stage and in the studio.

  • Arturia MatrixBrute

    Monophonic/paraphonic analog synthesizer with modulation matrix

    Synthesizer · France

    The Arturia MatrixBrute, released in 2016, is a flagship monophonic, duo-split, and paraphonic analog synthesizer with three Brute oscillators, both Steiner-Parker and ladder filters, five analog effects, and a large hands-on modulation matrix. Its 49-note keyboard with aftertouch sits above a 64-step sequencer with dedicated step, accent, slide, and modulation lanes.

  • Novation Summit

    Sixteen-voice bi-timbral hybrid keyboard polysynth

    Synthesizer · United Kingdom

    The Novation Summit, released in 2019, is a sixteen-voice bi-timbral keyboard synthesizer that effectively combines two Peak engines, allowing two independent patches to be split or layered across its 61-note keyboard. Each voice uses three New Oxford Oscillators and an analog state-variable filter.

  • Waldorf Quantum

    Multi-engine digital keyboard synthesizer

    Synthesizer · Germany

    The Waldorf Quantum, introduced in 2018, is a flagship digital synthesizer offering five oscillator modes per voice - wavetable, waveform, granular and sampling, resonator, and kernels FM - feeding three stereo filters, with both digital and analog filter paths. The current Quantum MK2 provides up to sixteen voices of hybrid polyphony on a 61-note polyphonic-aftertouch keyboard.

  • Sequential Prophet Rev2

    Eight- or sixteen-voice analog polyphonic synthesizer

    Synthesizer · United States

    The Sequential Prophet Rev2, introduced in 2017 as a successor to the Prophet '08, is an analog polyphonic synthesizer available in eight- or sixteen-voice configurations. Each voice uses two digitally controlled analog oscillators (DCOs) and a Curtis analog low-pass filter with switchable two- and four-pole operation, with two layers per program for stacked or split bi-timbral sounds. It is offered as a five-octave Fatar keyboard and a desktop module.

  • Sequential Prophet-6

    Six-voice analog polyphonic synthesizer

    Synthesizer · United States

    The Sequential Prophet-6, introduced in 2015, is a six-voice analog polyphonic synthesizer designed by Dave Smith as a modern descendant of the original Prophet-5.
