Dreadbox Antidote and Euphoria review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

Dreadbox's Antidote Karplus-Sting Strings module charms with its unique sound palette, offering versatile plucky string sounds ideal for modular setups. Its ease of integration and controllability make it a standout, capable of everything from sharp plucks to resonant drones. While not mimicking an orchestra, its musicality is distinct and engaging. The affordable price point and CV inputs for additional modulation options add value, though it doesn't reach the complexity of high-end resonators. Overall, it's a strong addition to Dreadbox's Chromatic range, balancing quality and accessibility for creative sound design.
