Dave Smith TETRA available NOW!
Dave Smith Instruments released the Tetra in August,
its next-generation analog polyphonic synthesizer. Tetras four voices
feature a 100% analog signal path and four-part multitimbral operation
with individual outputs per voice.
"Weve
been getting the message loud and clear from our customers that smaller is better" said company founder Dave Smith. "All our recent
products pack a lot of power and functionality into a small
package, even the Prophet 08, which is relatively small for a
full-sized keyboard. Wed also gotten a lot of requests for a poly
version of Mopho, our analog mono synth, which has been very
successful. By following Mophos lead and paring the interface down to
the essentials, we can keep the price low and provide excellent value.
Everybody wins."
Tetra
is basically four Mophos in a very compact (7.9" L x 5" W) enclosure, a
sort of mini Prophet with a couple of extra tricks up its sleeve:
specifically, a sub-octave generator for each oscillator and feedback. Tetra can be poly chained with
additional Tetras or a Prophet 08 for up to sixteen-voice polyphony.
Other
features include Combo Mode, used to combine four programs into unison
or poly super patches. Combos can also play four 16 x 4 step
sequencesone per voice/program simultaneously. In Multi Mode,
each of Tetras voices responds to a different MIDI channel, making it
ideal for complex arrangements and sequencing analog drum sounds. Tetra
is the first DSI product to feature USB. "USB is one of the most
requested features across our entire product line", said DSIs Tracy
Wadley, "so its great to be able to offer it."
Tetras classic analog sound and unprecedented combination of performance, flexibility, and price make it outstanding value.
