ALT is an analog soundscape synthesizer designed to expand the realms of sonic exploration, through intricate motion.
in this demo, we go over the 3 sections of ALT (Voices, Alter, Movement), cover all main features, explain the pin matrix, the workflow, and show a few examples of how the synth can sound.
key features:
- unique, hands-on and screenless workflow - not even a shift button
- 5 voices with free frequencies or following scales to create beautiful melodies
- stereo panning per voice
- MS-20 style stereo filter
- wild delay with infinite feedback
- modulation pin matrix with 2 LFOs, a random generator, an envelope follower, and 17 destinations
- light and sound sensors to make it react to its environment
- midi and CV inputs

ALT is for creatives who wish to explore a different workflow that will give rise to unheard harmonies, complex rhythmic patterns and precise sound design.
the kickstarter campaign is over.

Great!!! France is slowly becoming the leading force in super extra synth inventions. I can just imagine the ALT with Onde from La Voix du Luthier. Hope the price will not be too high. 😀

This an admirably straightforward demonstration of a radically ambitious synthesizer. A great example of how experimental doesn't have to be pretentious. I've never supported a kickstarter in my life, but I would happily support this project. Bravo!

I’ve been buying synths for a long time. I’m old and jaded and not much excites me anymore. This looks fabulous. Having midi control sets it aside from 'similar' things like Subharmonicon or Lyra 8, and means it could blend much better into my set up. Bravo. Superb.

agreed, had the Lyra , but no midi was a big fail for me.even tough the design is different this one seems way more capable .(industrial design is not my thing tough, but I can live pass that)

@@faober3594 To me, the Lyra8 doesn't feel expressive enough, with a theremin and mic, you get to open and explore so much more potentials. Lyra8 is in no way a bad instrument, it just doesn't have these 2 features which give it so much more freedom imo.

If Forbidden planet were to be made today, this is the exacting synth to make the score. Such an expressive instrument, I would more than welcome it to my setup, but that all comes down to $. I am not expecting it to be cheap, but just hope it will be with reach, something that would be curing my frustrations to soundscaping. Wishing you all the success with your amazing synth.

It's a wonderful synth that is a little above my current synth budget (had the early bird been €600, I might have gone for it, and at €500 it would have been without hesitation) but I'm glad to see the Kickstarter got funded literally just within a few minutes. I hope you do really well with this one. Perhaps I'll get one some day, or whatever other synth you might make in the same vein later after the well-earned success of this one. There certainly is a market for something a little different like this, that is highly atmospheric, aesthetically pleasing even just visually, and with an intuitive user interface that puts many other synths to shame, so I hope you will also come up with more ideas or evolutions of this one in the future. Bonne chance!

@hakonsoreide Ай бұрын
I love how it looks and sounds. I must say I am a little disappointed the pins don't seem to come in different resistance values, as is the case with other synths using pin matrices, but I would presume that would have increased the cost hugely since it could no longer be made simply from switched sockets (which is what I presume they are). It certainly looks cooler than a matrix of buttons.

no attenuation per destination, but you do have an amplitude control for each source (column).

@@cymaforma Yes, I spotted the amplitude per source, which is also great since many synths don't actually have that, and it can make such a huge difference to the sonic possibilities.
