Gargantuan analog sound in a surprisingly small synthesizer
micron's rugged, compact design delivers the power of large synthesizers like the Alesis Ion (micron is compatible with Ion programs), making it an exceptional and highly-portable tool, that can be used for incredible sonic results, both in the studio and on-stage.
The easy-to-use interface makes creating new textures and instruments extremely fast and intuitive, and with a programmable step and phrase sequencer, arpeggiator, and world class effects, there is very little you can't do with a micron.
- Industry-leading Ion analog-modeling sound engine in a compact package
- 8 voices, each with 3 oscillators, 2 multimode filters, 3 envelope generators, 2 LFOs, sample and hold, and tracking generator
- 4 multi-timbral parts
- Programmable step sequencer and arpeggiator
- Programmable rhythm sequencer for drum kits
- Dynamic real-time phrase sequencer
- Stereo effects, including reverb and 40-band vocoder
