Instruō Pocket SCÍON: the pocket-sized biofeedback synthesizer

The Pocket SCÍON is an innovative, portable device that transforms bioelectric signals from living organisms into sound. Based on the Eurorack SCÍON module, this standalone synthesizer offers a novel approach to sound generation that is accessible to anyone, even without musical experience.

Organic sound design and living connection

Using a capacitive pad or sensory clips, Pocket SCÍON captures organic impulses and converts them into rich, dynamic soundscapes. Its four integrated instrumental modes, developed in collaboration with Tarun Nayar (Modern Biology), enable direct and deep interaction between nature and sound.

Compact, versatile and ready for studio or live performance

Despite its small size, Pocket SCÍON supports up to 5 notes of polyphony and can send MIDI (TRS and USB) or OSC data via the desktop app. It is perfect for audio-visual installations, live performances, and integration into modular studios or DAWs.
