SWITCHTRIX ELECTRONICS SYNTHE A100/EMS SYNTHI A/EMS SYNTHI 100

It's been a long time coming but we're very happy to announce the release of our model A100.
The Synthe A100 is a hybrid of the Synthi A and Synthi 100 in an Explorer hard case with 32 x 32 analog switch matrix.
Feel free to contact us at [e-mail] for more info.

woah exciting new work pushing concepts forward! and already love my VCS300...

[@switchtrixelectronics3482]

Thanks Gabe.Enjoy your VCS300

gorgeous

[@Orangetronic]

This is completely bananas crazy good, phenomenal work!

[@williambowden4192]

I think it would look rather spiffing in their green case too! Great work, but I need both kidneys dammit :)

[@jahbuddha]

to my mind it's more a "Crystal Machine" than a 100 but that's a bonus in my book. I can't find any faults with this, love the look and the choice of carrycase. It exudes class and quality.

[@johnsaunders6510]

What a monster dream synth.

[@calyx93]

Wow - a portable sonic laboratory. The mind boggles at the features offered - six oscillators(!),two ring mods, three filters, two ... drooling. One could get lost in the depths - amazing.

[@philwoolfson4451]

Great interpretation of the EMS synthi units. I really like the matrix implementation.

[@bostich1]

Amazing!

[@agerven]

The filter and spring reverb sound familiar!
Lets just hope that the power connection on it is improved with respect to that of the Synthi A, which had a safety rating of 50 Volt max. It appears to be very flexible and usable. Except for the huge pin matrix i'd say it is basically a double Synthi A. But the big matrix allows so many connections and variations thereof.

Looks gorgeous 😍

[@user-rv8wb1nl1b]

How many kidneys do i have to sell ?

[@switchtrixelectronics3482]

Oh just the one kidney should do😂.It's £9499

[@miffebarbez]

It doesn't have to be your own kidney.... ;)

[@ZackYouTube]

Excellent work bro... this looks and sounds amazing!!

[@spacegaming1366]

Absolutely fantastic piece of equipment. Since it's completely out of range for 99.9% of us, would you consider designing and selling some individual modules separately? I see on the website there is VCSX-BC available which I'm now considering to get. It would be great to have the possibility to add more to it, like random voltage genererator, more oscillators etc.

[@switchtrixelectronics3482]

We have plans for an expander that would just contain the Synthi 100 modules

[@christoroppolo8742]

Wow!👍👽✌️

[@wirebaby_official]

Very nice. Subbed.

[@switchtrixelectronics3482]

Thanks

[@stretta]

It wasn't really clear to me how to set the modulation routings. I guess you click a button for a source and then another for a destination, but I didn't see this gesture. It doesn't look like modulation amount is set at the destination, I wonder if the matrix has the ability to attenuate like the different color pins on the vcs3. It looks like there may be one encoder by the matrix, the small silver knob... maybe that does it. Would attenuation be indicated by brightness? I do like how signal intensity is displayed directly on the matrix. Love the vernier knobs for pitch adjustment.

[@switchtrixelectronics3482]

You're correct, click source, destination then enter to route a connection.I've designed the oscillators and filters with variable CV attenuators.

[@jaysgood10]

If it had 8 oscillators I'd go for it.

[@switchtrixelectronics3482]

There's always the 2 filter oscillators😉

[@jaysgood10]

@@switchtrixelectronics3482 no thanks.

[@MrBattlehunter]

wow this looks amazing straight out of a soviet era nuclear lab and the specs are great but for a sound demo this sounds kinda poor especially considering what this thing costs

[@The_Digital_Arts_World]

It’s cool; but, would like to see some performance usability demonstrated. The cost is prohibitive unless it can be tamed into something more than a sound engineer’s wet dream.

[@switchtrixelectronics3482]

Melodic demos coming soon

[@The_Digital_Arts_World]

@ Cool … Thanks

[@frankschneider7190]

is it out of order?

[@Eclectronmodular]

Sadly, at > $10k my Synthi VST from Arturia is as close as I'll ever come to this....

[@newtronix]

I daren't even ask the price!

Looks atrocious. I thought half the appeal of these things is the looks factor.

Yeah, take that, Landscape :)

[@Bata9999]

@@williambowden4192 this thing would look "great" with a CS-30L I'll give it that.

🫨 miracle of synth. I'm shocked to the very core.
