Synthstrom Audible’s unique hybrid instrument is available to pre-order.
New Zealand boutique company Synthstrom Audible has officially unveiled the Deluge, an all-in-one synth, sampler and sequencer that costs under $800.
The instrument was teased earlier this month, and features 128 pads for sequencing, a dual-engine subtractive and FM synth and 64MB of RAM for loading samples as well as built-in effects, arpeggiator and CV outputs for external gear.
Synthstrom Audible has uploaded a three-part walkthrough video for the Deluge, outlining all its features including track-building capabilities, sound editor and how to hook it up to other drum machines and synths.
Synthstrom Audible has now made the device available for pre-order, costing £640 plus £45 shipping for those in the UK. Buyers in the US can get it for $780 plus $55 shipping with customers in Europe paying €720 plus €50 shipping.
The launch price is only available for pre-orders made until November 25. Synthstrom explains that this is to lower manufacturing costs, with the price likely to increase for later orders.
