Could This Be The World's Smallest 3-Oscillator Analog Synth?
Fit a complete analog synthesizer in your wallet.
You carry around all your music, photos and every other important aspect of your life on them, so why not own a USB that allows you to play a fully-equipped synthesizer as well? Introducing the Trueno: the world’s smallest—and most portable—analog synthesizer.
Housed in an aerospace-grade aluminum USB stick, the Trueno boasts a digitally controlled three-analog oscillator setup with automatic tuning. You can select saw, pulse, triangle and noise waveforms across all three oscillators, as well as a powerful digital mode. The Trueno also allows you to use both additive and wavetable synth modes and a low-pass and band-pass filter with enough “aggressive, screaming resonance [to] cut through any mix.”
Add to that a fully integrated 44.1 KHz 24 bit analogue-to-digital converter and an array of digital modulation and FX busses, and you’ve got yourself a very serious analog synthesizer to make chaos on the go. For orders, pricing and demos, head to the Trueno website here.
