Description

The successor to the widely acclaimed Elmyra synthesiser, Elmyra 2 is a 4-voice digital/analog hybrid platform for microtonal sonic exploration, capable of creating anything from lush ambient soundscapes to gritty droning textures and shrieking noises, available as a 42 HP Eurorack module or semi-modular desktop synth.

With 31 modulation targets, 4 polymetric sequencers, delay, additional per-voice effects, a choice of various filters, as well as onboard LFOs and utilities, it is essentially a purpose-built small modular system in itself.
A set of preset cards (included) or electronic components like capacitors or diodes can be plugged into the front panel in order to change the sound character.

Feature overview:

• 4 independent voices activated by touch or CV
• wavetable-based complex oscillator engine, up to 12 oscillators in total, 1V/octave compatible
• 41 patch points
• 31 modulation targets
• touch-pads with analog envelopes that can be used as modulation sources
• resonant filter switchable between:
• boomy and aggressive multimode 2-pole state variable filter (low-pass, band-pass, high-pass)
• creamy 4-pole low-pass ladder filter
• delay with unhealthy amounts of feedback
• analog OUCH circuit: a unique combination of destructive distortion, waveshaping and filtering
• sonic character can be customised by using special preset cards (set of 4 included) or components like diodes that can be plugged into the front panel
• preset cards can be used with other Neutral Labs modules
• external audio can be processed via audio input
• 9 per-voice modulations and effects:
• unison detune
• dual sub-oscillators
• saturation
• bitmangler
• sample rate reduction
• noise
• high-pass filter
• low-pass filter
• 2 LFOs: 1 sine, 1 complex morphable
• 4 sequencers with arbitrary step length per voice up to (128), allows polymetric structures
• delay time and LFOs can be clock-synced or unsynced (tap tempo is also possible)
• utilities: dual attenuator/buffered multiple/voltage generator, voltage summing circuit
• CV summing circuit
• case made of plant-based bioplastic and native German oakwood
• boutique synth handmade in Germany

Elmyra 2 – Build Guide,  Manual & Firmware updates.

Please Note:

• For sustainability reasons, the desktop version does not come with a USB power supply, just a USB-A to USB-C cable. You will need a 5V supply with a USB-A socket, such as a phone charger, power bank or laptop.
• The desktop version does have a Eurorack power header and can be placed into a Eurorack. The desktop case however has 5V USB power and no Eurorack rails, you cannot use it as a 42 HP rack without modifications.
