Malekko Heavy Industry shared this preview of their MANTHER – a desktop synth that features an entirely analog signal path with a 64-step sequencer.
The analog monosynth is based around a CEM3340-based VCO IC. The CEM3340 is found in a lot of classic analog synths, including the Moog Memorymoog, the Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 and the Roland SH-101.
The MANTHER’s analog filters are based on the CEM3320, much like the Sequential Circuits Pro One, the Prophet-5 and the Oberheim OB-8.
MANTHER’s source mixer allows for total control over square, triangle, sine, tri shape, noise and sub levels. The desktop synth module also features a mini-keyboard as well as record and song modes. The MANTHER offers lots of I/O options, including CV, MIDI, clock and gate.
Official details are still to come at the Malekko site.
Hot damn..I have been waiting for these…any status on the other two?

At first glance I thought Aira.
Sounds like one of those eurorack farts-jams… sorry, not impressed by this demo. i believe this is a great synth but this video didn’t show that IMHO.
Is it me or do the envelopes sound a little bit too slow (maybe it is just the demo)?
Mr. D please!
