Dysphonia is a fully featured synth voice mixing analog and digital elements. Dysphonia can be used either as 42HP Eurorack module, or as a standalone Desktop synth – the kit includes a dedicated USB to Eurorack power converter. The synth voice is divided into 13 individual sections. The analog oscillator has 4 sources (square with PWM, saw, triangle, noise), fine/tune controls, and each source has its own output. Then, you have two filters. The first one is a 24dB 4-pole analog (self-oscillating) lowpass filter while the second is a 12dB 2-pole analog multi-mode filter. Also analog is the VCA section that consists of three VCAs made for amplification or modulation. Next to this, is a super handy 1-to-3 passive multiplier, and a 3-to-1 mixer section that supports audio and CV signals. Great for more advanced modulation mixing.
In the lower part, you can find a high-precision MIDI-to-CV/gate converter (MIDI-TRS adaptor included). On the modulation side, you have a 1ms/stage snappy attack/decay envelope, and a wide range analog LFO. Dysphonia also has a digital modulator with 4 different modes. You can choose between a multi-wave LFO with delay function, S&H random generator, snappy 1ms/stage AD or AR envelope, or MIDI CC modulation (mod wheel, velocity, aftertouch, uni-/bipolar). At the signal end, you get the Erebus style hybrid echo processor with CV control.
