SMALL FORM - BIG HEART!

Vibes - True stereophonic digital synthesizer with 24 stereo voices

With its 24 stereo voices, the powerful XVA engine, a complete audio mixer, the improved clip launcher, the comprehensive drum engine and the new resonator oscillator, Vibes is a new class of synthesizer that allows you to fully exploit your creative potential.

Vibes is Mayer EMI's most portable desktop synthesizer to date and a logical continuation of their design philosophy. At the heart of Vibes is a 24-voice polyphonic, true stereophonic digital synthesizer that incorporates the Extended Virtual Analog (XVA) sound engine of the MD900. The combination of real digital stereo oscillators with the harmonic richness of wavetable synthesis makes it a dream instrument for you as a sound designer and musician.
