Alessandro Cortini and Scott Jaeger (The Harvestman) have collaborated to create a fully functional synthesizer called the SuONOIO.
It’s available now at Cortini’s site and sells for $159.99.
SuONOIO is derived from Italian, suono io = i make sound.
The SuONOIO Synthesizer
The SuONOIO is portable, thanks to its battery powered operation and built-in speaker. In addition to the immediate feedback of the built-in speaker, SuONOIO features a 1/4″ output that makes it easy to be integrated with your favorite pedals, processors, amplifiers and more.
“Multiple SuONOIOs can be patched together if you decide to become a shut in or a professional concert SuONOIO-ist,” notes Cortini.
Here’s an audio preview of SuONOIO, via Cortini:
Main Features:
- 2 Sample Players with access to Sample Banks and Pitch Control
- 16 Point Patchable System For Routing Simple to Complex Signal Chains
- Internal Delay Effect
- 6 Knobs for Ultimate Tweaking Pleasure
- Mini Patch Cords
- 1/4″ Output
- Integrated Speaker
- Battery Operated
- Multiple SuONOIO Compatibility
The SuONOIO is included as the top-of-the-line option for purchasing Cortini’s new album, SONOIO.
The SuONOIO utilizes sounds found on Cortini’s SONOIO album and allows you to reshape them into new sounds, rhythms, textures and drones.

Who's gonna order this if they can't hear it or see pictures of it?
A link to their site in this post would've been helpful too, by the way

Thanks for the feedback – this is fixed.
There will be some that will go for it just because they're familiar with The Harvestman's work – but Cortini would do better to have photos. It would also be good to explain whether this was a limited edition release or not.
The specs seem interesting. But…
…based on the video, they sure don't want to SELL any of these things.
I would like to start off by stating, thank you for supplying me with the information I’ve been searching for. I’ve been searching the internet for three hours searching for it and would have given my right arm if I would have found your website sooner. Not only did I find what I was searching for, but found answers to questions I never thought to ask. Thank you for such a wonderful web-site!
