purlieu Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 So The Future Sound of London are working with some developers to create their first synth which will be called the Digitana. From the little information they've released, it will very loosely be based on the EMS Synthi A (of which Brian Dougans owns one of the very first made, and they released an album earlier entirely made from) but with a much more expanded range of sounds. It's featured in this track apparently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grain Bastard Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Interesting. Name sounds like a hybrid (digital analog) Synthi are expensive though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purlieu Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 So Digitana are actually the company. And the synths are... HALia Another new project being developed in collaboration with The Future Sound of London. This is an all digital 'pocket' synth using multiple powerful ARM-based microcontrollers. Sonic possibilities are endless. Everything from huge pulsating multi-oscillator drones, FM-synthesis to Buchla-esque noodlings (and everything in between) are all possible. Imagination is the only limit! SX-1 Stand Alone Expander The SX-1 is a 'stand alone expander' based around the Synthi AKS KS Expander (described elsewhere on this website). It is the result of ongoing collaborations between Digitana Electronics and the legendary UK band The Future Sound of London. It shares all the features of the Synthi AKS KS Expander but requires no Synthi to use it (though one can of course be used with it) and in addition has a host of new features described below.

That looks really good and really expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purlieu Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 Yes, I think the HALia is going to be the affordable one and the SX-1 a little bit more... niche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsil303 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Very interesting, although i would love to see the modulation patch matrix on it. I dare to say that might be a dealbreaker for me when the unit is too expensive (ie 1000+) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
