Magnolia is an eight-voice analog through-zero linear FM synthesizer. Besides the classic analog polysynth sounds, its design allows programming some less conventional timbres closer to a particular family of synthesizer modules known as “complex oscillators.”
With the Magnolia, it is possible to bring advanced synthesis techniques in the world of analog polysynths and retain their known advantages: polyphony, immediacy of use, powerful sound, and those little unpredictable details generally known as “analog warmth.”
Magnolia is a highly playable instrument thanks to its expressive Fatar keyboard with polyphonic aftertouch, and encourages sound exploration through its large and relaxing front panel.
