Oversigt
Raw and Bold Sound Sources
CARBON8M provides two Oscillators with 56 Cores each. They generate 18 unique high-resolution algorithms or 38 wavetables for exceptional sounds that range from aggressive and bold to ear-pleasing soft and lush tones. Each patch can contain a combination of any two algorithms or wavetables. Only one parameter is required to contour sonic sweet spots for further sound explorations and shaping.
Mangle and Tweak
The XCore provides a wide range of exciting and sophisticated Oscillator Modifiers, such as Phase Distortion, Wavefolding, and Wave-Shaping, allowing sculpting characterful sound variations for new, innovative synth sounds to be dialled in to taste.
For Filter Gourmets
The massive filter section of CARBON8M contains a wide selection of 34 different filter types. The available collection includes reminiscences of vintage filter models and modern Modal filter adaptations to carve or boost the crucial frequencies in your patch. Some models also offer drive and morph parameters to rough up the spectral spectrum or mangle sound in the most peculiar and spectacular ways.
Reshape and Modulate
Three LFOs with variable pulses width LFOs, variable slope triangles, dual rate ramps and more highlight CARBON8M’s modulation section. Three Envelope Generators allow detailed editing to modulate pitch, filter and amp. Twelve modulation routes offer various ways to mangle the audio shapes and outputs.
Bring in some movement
The integrated 512-note Realtime / Step Sequencer with four powerful Animation Lanes invites you to compose massive and complex melodic patterns. The polyphonic step sequencer mode enables easy step input for note and animation values. Multiple sequencer trigger modes, coupled with the powerful onboard arpeggiator (programmable up to 32 steps) and features such as Chord Hold, Inversions, Transpose, and Sustain Latch, unleash powerful moving patterns for live and studio performances.
Desktop or Rack?
The CARBON8M’s robust steel and aluminum casing highlights its professional-grade design. Its compact desktop form factor fits seamlessly onto any producer’s workspace, while the included brackets make it easy to mount in a studio or live performance rack. For intuitive control, the CARBON8M is equipped with 13 switched encoders, 13 encoders, 9 buttons, and an X/Y joystick for pitch and modulation. Additionally, MPE support unlocks innovative creative possibilities for advanced performers.
Studio-grade FX included
Polish your sounds with the onboard stereo effects engine. CARBON8M comes with a 3-slot FX engine with in-depth FX programming. To round up your synth tone, 26 studio-grade FX algorithms add character and depth, including rich Reverbs, warm Chorus effects, swirling Phasers and Flangers, Tremolo, LoFi, Rotary, wide Delays, Equaliser, Compressor and more.
Looking to connect
CARBON8M has all the physical connections required to embed the instrument in any studio, production or live performance environment. Control the synth using USB, monitor with headphones or dedicated line outputs, sync with external gear using the full-size MIDI in and out or the 3.5 mm Sync in or outputs and take control of your sound using the built-in Sustain and Expression inputs. By poly-chaining any two CARBON8 devices, the number of voices is easily doubled to 16.
