Product Description

  • The Polivoks (Rus.: Поливокс) was designed by Vladimir Kuzmin with input on the aesthetics from his wife Olimpiada who was apparently inspired by Soviet military radios of the time. In production between 1982 and 1990 the Polivoks was manufactured at the Formanta Radio Factory in Kachkanar
  • Russian SFSR. With a retail price upon release of 920 rubles around 100
  • 000 Polivoks were manufactured - peaking at a production rate of up to 1
  • 000 units a month! Despite this
  • the Polivoks is not all that commonly seen an instrument outside of Russia. Solo Synth Engine It may be full of bizarre old Russian transistors the size of flying saucers
  • plastic that feels like it was made from recycled Christmas cracker toys and easily winning the most horrific key-action ever made contest.. Loot Audio truly adore this wonderful old analog chameleon of an instrument! As always with all of Loot Audio Kontakt Libraries the raw sample material has been captured faithfully and directly from the instrument (including in this case a few samples taken via a gorgeous 1968 Bruel & Kjaer type 2107 all- tube swept band pass lab filter). The Solo Synth Engine retains the sonic character of the instrument and yet helps to present it in a new light permitting a wide range of tonal colours
  • textures and landscapes to be explored. With this in mind they have included many example patches in the library which I think will help to show the full potential of the Polivox library. Unique Filter Design Although intending to appear and sound similar to the Minimoog it has been said that Vladimir never had access to the instrument or indeed any technical information. On examining the schematics
  • Loot Audio would have to agree and go so far as to say the Polivoks is a very different beast indeed on a technical footing. Some have said the instrument was a poor man's Minimoog but Loot Audio truly think this is disingenuous to say the least as it sports some interesting unique features such as looping envelopes
  • a particularly efficiently implemented duophonic note assigner
  • and a quite remarkable and unique filter design. In fact
  • whilst producing the original patches for this library Loot Audio has been particularly taken by the filter on this unique instrument which is like nothing they've ever heard before. Sporting both Low Pass and Band Pass modes it can be quite an untamed beast at times but with care also capable of producing some really quite beautiful timbres.
