The PWM Mantis Hybrid Analog Synthesizer is the ultimate musical instrument for synth players and keyboardists who want to tap into their unique creativity. This hybrid analogue synth combines cutting-edge features with Chris Huggett's unhackable sound design, giving you access to a virtually limitless palette of sonic exploration.

The tactile controls also make it incredibly easy to manipulate the sound you create with precision and finesse. The mixture of innovative design and tried-and-true analogue architecture makes this synthesizer an ideal choice for those looking to bring something truly unique to their music.
PWM Mantis Hybrid Analog Synthesizer Features
OSCILLATORS:
The OSCs are generated at boot-up using complex mathematics. They run on a DSP chip that gives ultimate stability and control without compromising the unique sound. This is what makes the synth a hybrid but don’t be fooled - everything after that through the mixer, gain staging and the filter is analogue.
VCF:
The Filter is a multi-mode state variable VCA Filter with overdrive. It is built using the SSI2164 chip in special configuration designed by Chris Huggett. There are two filters - one for each analogue signal path. They can be combined in series or parallel and used with the width control and width modulation to create that distinctive sound only heard on the OSCar.
FX:
The Mantis has two simple digital effects: Reverb and Chorus. Reverb has a time and level adjustment but also a high and low pass filter that can be switched in to limit unwanted lower mud and/or higher bouncy twinkles (!)
ENVELOPES:
Mantis has 2 ADSR envelopes but each has an additional ‘Sustain Fall’ parameter and negative and positive velocity modulation level hardwired for convenience. ‘Sustain Fall’ allows you to create a drop before release even while a key is held for greater sound design possibilities. Each envelope can also be put into repeat mode to act as a pseudo LFO if you wish.
VCA:
The gain staging on Mantis is, of course, all analogue and is run through the SSI2164 VCAs - we have a few of them in the design! The signal is actually twice amplified to ensure the overdriven sound is warm and clips naturally.
If you're looking for a hybrid analogue synthesizer that can take your music to the next level, then the PWM Mantis Hybrid Analog Synthesizer is the perfect choice!CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
