- Company co-founder and principal designer Paul Maddox of Modal Electronics (née Modulus) walks through the features of his Modal Electronics 002 analog/digital hybrid polysynth at NAMM 2015. After the overview he surfs through some example patches (with direct-in stereo sound).
Using high quality components, the Modal Electronics 002 is a premium product designed to be the flagship in the Modal Electronics range. The keyboard layout includes a semi-weighted, five octave key mechanism and has been ergonomically designed by musicians so that the hands fall naturally and intuitively to the controls. It provides twelve discrete voices of polyphony with full multi-timbrility if required. Adding to the ease of use is a large integral display screen that is context sensitive, i.e. it displays the control parameters of any control knobs immediately when touched by the user. Quick recall banks enable preset sequences and settings to be stored for instant use such as during a live performance. NCOs (numerically controlled oscillators) are used for stability and accuracy while an analogue transistor ladder filter provides classic ‘warm’ sounds. - Hudba

Congratulations Paul from a fellow Brit on a superb looking and sounding product. The sound at 5:58 sounds to me like a church organ for its richness but still like a synth, much warmer than a lot of digital 'church organ' impersonations but actually has the 'taste' of a real church organ while still being a synth sound. The sounds also seems to have its own reverb. That for me is what synthesis is about, entering a different sound world but being as musical as an acoustic instrument.
Dave Bellamy I really liked the sound at 8:49 too.
Nice machine, but compared to a Solaris it is way overpriced.
duperdude25 I was thinking that this synth is a pretty direct comparison to a Solaris. The cost is going to depend on where you live, especially mainland Europe or UK compared to the USA.
