New Universal Skiff System
Overview
The New Universal Skiff System is a compact, powerful music synthesizer designed for multi-channel modular synthesis. This integrated system combines multiple specialized modules to deliver polyphonic sound generation using control voltages, making it perfect for both studio production and live performance. With USB-C MIDI/MPE connectivity and a streamlined control interface, the system offers deep modulation capabilities in an accessible, performance-ready package.
Features
- 8-Channel Polyphonic Architecture: Create complex polyphonic patches with eight independent channels of synthesis
- Dual Wavetable Oscillators: MultiWAVE module provides 16 wavetable oscillators (8 dual pairs) for rich harmonic content
- Advanced Modulation: Eight complex function generators via PoliMATHS, plus MultiMod for time-shifted control signal variants
- Integrated Low Pass Gates: Dual QXG modules deliver eight channels of low pass gate processing with stereo mix animation
- Multi-Mode Stereo Filtering: QPAS module offers multi-peak stereo filtering for sophisticated sound shaping
- Professional Output: XOH module provides stereo mixing with line level and headphone outputs
- USB-C MIDI/MPE Support: Direct connection to computers, DAWs, and MIDI controllers for channel activation
- Streamlined Control: Simple, intuitive interface for complex polyphonic patching
