Matter II takes the original analog drum-wave synthesis of the original matter and simplifies patching while also adding possibilities. It utilizes a pin matrix - a single point patchbay that allows you to connect points without the use of cables. The pin matrix allows access to the sound generation to create anything from beats to drone to noise and matter ii is fully capable of processing external audio with fuzz, filtering and heavy distortion. With the addition of a vactrol, these drones, noise or even processed audio can be cut or modulated with any gate, trigger or cv source.
"Matter" is drum wave synthesis. While it could simply be called a drum synthesizer, the method of play is designed equally as much to make the all-analog drum-based synthesis playable as waves as it is to make triggerable drum sounds. This means Matter can take a "kick" oscillator, for example, and use it to generate a bassline, a "snare" can create washes of noise with peaking resonance, and so on. This allows for a very broad complexity of rhythm and tonality because triggering is not confined to a single point.
Includes original box, ribbon cable and 10 pins.
