Asm HYDRASYNTH KEYBOARD
According to ASM's presentation, the Hydrasynth is a VA polyphonic synthesizer for both sound designers and musicians. It is available in two editions, one with a ribbon controller, pitch bend and modulation wheels and a proprietary 49-key Polytouch velocity-sensitive keyboard with polyphonic aftertouch, and the other in desktop format with 24 pressure-sensitive polyphonic pads.
The two Hydrasynth models include three oscillators with 219 waveforms, the first two oscillators also offer a homemade Wavelist mode that allows you to choose eight waveforms from these 219, arrange them in a wavetable and morph them.
