INTRODUCTION

Hello and welcome to your new UDO synthesizer! I’m honoured to 

have been able to craft this instrument and place it in your hands. 

Synthesizers have been a love and passion in my life since a young age. 

It has always been a dream of mine to produce an instrument like the 

Super 6 and it has been realised by an international collaboration of 

talented musicians, engineers, designers and people like yourself who 

have supported this venture.

The Super 6 is a result of years of hard work and many iterations of 

development. My mission with the Super 6 has been to harmonise what 

I love about archetypal electronic instrument design with modern, novel 

synthesis technologies that excel at generating spatially dynamic results.

The architecture leverages the vibrancy of a true-stereo analog signal path, 

driving it with extremely high sample rate, spectrally versatile, digital audio 

and presents you with straightforward, expressive controls of superior 

mechanical build quality.

I would love to see this instrument with the wear and tear of many years 

of use. Do not be afraid to use it for what it was made for. Experiment, 

play, take it with you, learn it and hopefully love it like we do.

UDO are dedicated to making powerful and accessible musical 

instruments, and we hope you’ll take much simple joy from the Super 6. 

We have brought it to you, and now the most significant part of the

 

journey is in your hands.

George Hearn, 

Director UDO Audio Ltd
