Product Description

• Navigate the unknown   The Era-Spanning Sound Design Playground Born from the lineage of Serge©
• Buchla©
• and modular synthesis
• MAP embodies the fearless spirit of sound explorers who broke every rule in pursuit of the new. It captures that radical 1970s experimentation and reimagines it for today
• offering an instrument where vintage soul collides with modern innovation. MAP is not just a synthesiser
• it’s a sonic playground for the curious. With shimmering oscillations
• rich modulation
• and effects that ooze colour and character
• it invites you to step off the beaten path and into a world of discovery. For the synth explorer MAP is more than a tool
• it’s a companion. It rewards hands-on curiosity
• bends to your imagination
• and reveals sonic landscapes you didn’t know existed. Whether you’re sculpting bold leads
• gritty textures
• or shifting ambient soundscapes
• MAP helps you chase the unknown and make it yours.   Complex Oscillators
• Simple Inspiration At MAP’s heart are three unique oscillators
• including a dedicated modulation oscillator
• that echoes the West Coast ethos of deep
• flexible tone-shaping. You can twist amplitude
• frequency
• and waveshape into entirely new forms
• then run them through dual filters: a five-band resonant EQ and a versatile multimode filter
• in series or parallel. Add a nine-type noise source for grit and atmosphere
• and you’re working with raw sonic clay ready for adventure. True to its modular roots
• MAP is built for play. Oscillator and filter sections come with interchangeable presets
• each with fresh XY Pad macros for expressive control. A single gesture can transform your patch from subtle shimmer to wild
• chaotic eruption. Every configuration feels like opening a new chapter in your sonic journey.   Movement
• Colour
• Space
• Time Exploration demands motion—and MAP delivers. With three looping envelopes
• three drawable LFOs
• MPE support
• and a noise-powered random LFO
• your sounds gain organic unpredictability. A polyphonic generative arpeggiator fuels instant melodic inspiration
• while a clean
• intuitive modulation matrix keeps the wildest patches under your command. And then come the effects—more than polish
• they’re extensions of the instrument itself: Colour: split
• sculpt
• or devastate your frequencies. Time: a flexible quad delay that reshapes rhythm. Space: an ocean of grains and reverb for immersion and vastness. Together
• they transform MAP into a living system—capable of deep bass growls
• crystalline leads
• or sprawling cinematic atmospheres.   For those who see synthesis not as a preset machine
• but as a voyage—MAP is your vessel. Rooted in the modular pioneers yet designed for today
• it’s an instrument that doesn’t just make sound. It helps you explore it. Note: During development
• MAP’s design team studied historical modular systems
• including those created by Serge Tcherepnin
• Random*Source
• and Buchla USA. MAP is an independent product and has no affiliation with
