Finger Sonic Analog Fusion

-

Italian brand FingerSoni­c have announced AnalogFusi­on, a hybrid polysynth, sporting a total of 13 digital and analogue voices.

Split into two distinct areas, the AF comes with six analogue voices, each comprised of two oscillator­s (saw, pulse and triangle waveforms) with PWM, three LFOs, hard-sync, ring modulation, a multimode filter, plus white and pink noise generators. The oscillator­s are detunable and all the analogue circuitry is made with discrete components.

There is also an additional analogue bass voice, which isn’t so feature rich, with just a single oscillator (saw and square waveforms) and a filter.

On the digital side, the synth has three main areas: Virtual Analog, which has two oscillator­s, a multimode filter, two envelopes and three LFOs; an FM section, with operators with a multimode filter for each voice; and a wavetable synth engine. All joined by a dedicated drum section.

Globally, the layer mode allows users to stack the analogue and digital engines for some serious sound design possibilit­ies and you’ll also find a 14-track sequencer and three arpeggiato­rs lurking within. The effects section is entirely digital and includes delay, chorus and distortion, but can be completely bypassed, should you want to keep the signal-chain analogue.

At the time of writing there’s no word on price. According to FingerSoni­c, AnalogFusi­on will arrive next summer.
