Polyvera SoundBuono: Hybrid Digital/Analogue Synthesis.

Polyvera represents four years of research and development by SuonoBuono, culminating in a desktop synthesizer that blends the digital character of the 1980s with the sonic power of modern analog. At its heart are two independent oscillators - wavetables or samplers - capable of emulating aliasing and vintage digital artifacts, as well as generating warm analog-inspired timbres.

Hybrid Oscillators: Vintage Digital and Creative Sampler

Each Polyvera voice includes two digital oscillators, a sub-oscillator, noise generator and ring modulator. Oscillator 2 can act as a sampler, with lo-fi reproduction of 80s-style samples. The user can choose between high-fidelity oscillators or modified vintage models, with ample opportunity for modulation of harmonic content.

Multimode Analog Filter: Warmth and Versatility

The analog filter offers eight modes, including lowpass, bandpass, peak, and a post-filter distortion configuration. Rich saturations, self-oscillation and frequency modulation can be achieved, with behaviors similar to classic analog synth filters.

Advanced Sound Architecture and Modulations

Polyvera adopts a classic architecture with analog VCF and VCA for each voice. The three envelopes per voice (VCF, VCA, mod) and three independent LFOs enable complex and dynamic modulations. The 8-slot modulation matrix allows custom routing between sources and destinations.

Effects, Sequencer and Live Functionality

Two serial effects (chorus, phaser, delay, reverb) complete the audio path. The 64-step polyphonic sequencer supports per-step automations, and the classic arpeggiator expands live possibilities. Voicing modes include polyphonic, monophonic, unison, binaural, and chord.
