Grp Synthesizer A2

Grp Synthesizer A2 Product Details

Description

A great little analog synthesizer with all the Grp heritage of sound and capability. The Grp A2 analog synthesizer has a MIDI input and analog CV/gate connections. It offers 8 vertical slots in a 5U format or, if you prefer, it can be rack-mounted. It features two large oscillators with the classic analog waveforms of Grp, Plus Super Saw and Super Triangle; the great 12dB/Oct ; Grp State Variable Filter, a ring modulator (have you ever tried ring modulating a 9 part Super Saw?), a noise generator, an amplifier, a master out section with some beautiful analog vumeters. There are two envelope generators, a filter with looping functions like the big Grp A4 synth and several LFOs/modulation routings. The integrated arpeggiator can be clocked via the internal clock, the external analog clock or the MIDI clock; operation is simple and fun. The Grp A2 Analog Synthesizer is built like a tank. But it is far more dangerous.
