Thank you for
purchasing the
Erica Synths
SYNTRX II
synthesizer!
Peter Zinovieff himself approved of our re-imagination of his
legendary Synthi AKS in the form of the SYNTRX which was
produced in a limited run of 1056 units. Based on lessons learned
from the SYNTRX, we decided to create an instrument which would
integrate even deeper into contemporary electronic and
experimental music setups and cover sonic territory from daunting
drones to powerful basslines and glitched noisescapes.
The SYNTRX II is the culmination of our analogue sound design
circuits – two perfectly stable main oscillators with waveshapers, a
versatile multimode filter, supercharged external instrument inputs
with an envelope follower, a unique, great sounding ringmodulator,
a recordable joystick and built-in piano roll sequencer, all arranged
around our signature matrix mixer and topped off with powerful FX
on our new DSP platform. Introducing The SYNTRX II - a new dark
horse for experimental sonic rides.
