With the COBALT8, the team at Modal Electronics have taken the sonic properties of the classic synths and engineered them into a truly modern instrument capable of much more than analogue synths. With a new oscillator engine, extensive modulation options, an arpeggiator, morphable 4-pole ladder filter, step sequencer and more, there's plenty to experiment with. The FATAR keyboard with velocity and channel aftertouch is beautiful to play and the COBALT Series is also MPE Compatible giving you near infinite expressive possibilities and connectivity options.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEight true polyphonic voices allow players to lay out wide string or rich synth pad chords, while a monophonic bass or lead patch, played with 64 oscillators can shake the walls of every every clubs, studio or stadium. The COBAL8 is like a Swiss army knife of sound perfect for producers and sound designers alike.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ssp4hiD-JMs\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eModal Electronics Cobalt 8 Product Specification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePolyphony\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrue 8 voice polyphonic\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMPE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupports MPE-compatible MIDI controllers, allowing you to apply polyphonic control and expression to individual notes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Oscillators\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e64 high-resolution virtual-analogue oscillators, up to 8 per voice\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Two independent and self-contained oscillator groups with sine, pulse, triangle, sawtooth waveforms, 40 different algorithms including: complex analogue synthesis techniques, built-in crossmodulation (SYNC, RM, and many more), PWM, smooth morphing between VA waves, bit crushing, filtered noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlgorithms\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVA Sweep: Sweep through sine, triangle, saw, square, pulse (with pulse width) (A), ability to detune the oscillators (or snap to musical intervals) using spread (B)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVA Crushed: Sweep through sine, triangle and saw shapes (A) with real-time control over bit crushing (B)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpread Saw: Spread mode with increased oscillator count, ability to blend between the fundamental and detuned oscillators (A) and more comprehensive spread (B) options (e.g oct up + detuned)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpread Square: Spread mode with increased oscillator count, ability to blend between the fundamental and detuned oscillators (A) and more comprehensive spread (B) options (e.g oct up + detuned)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpread Triangle: Spread mode with increased oscillator count, ability to blend between the fundamental and detuned oscillators (A) and more comprehensive spread (B)options (e.g oct up + detuned)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePWM: Classic Pulse Width Modulation with width control (A) and ability to detune the oscillators using spread (B)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePWM Dual: PWM mode where as the width control (A) changes, the pulse width increases in the first cycle of the wave and decreases in the second cycle.
