Description

Experience a harmonious blend of vintage charm and modern innovation with the Michigan Synth Works MSW-810. This compact desktop synthesizer pays homage to the legendary Roland CMU-810, offering a sound engine that mirrors the MC-202 and echoes the sonorous allure of the SH-101. Designed for musicians who crave authenticity, the MSW-810 removes the complexities of digital interfaces, inviting you to orchestrate your soundscapes through external pitch and gate CV signals.

The MSW-810 is a sonic playground, featuring an analog VCO that delivers pulse and sawtooth waveforms, accompanied by a sub oscillator for deeper, richer lows. Its analog lowpass filter adds depth with a squelchy resonance that is both expressive and dynamic. Perfect for studio wizards and live performers alike, this synthesizer's simplicity is its strength, offering a pure, unadulterated canvas for your creative endeavors.

While it may lack a built-in keyboard or sequencer, the MSW-810 compensates with flexibility and character, including two external audio inputs for greater versatility. The onboard white noise generator, ADSR envelope, and LFO provide ample modulation opportunities, ensuring your sonic adventures are limited only by your imagination.

Key Features:

  • Desktop synthesizer inspired by the Roland CMU-810
  • Sound generator identical to the MC-202
  • Analog VCO with pulse and sawtooth waveforms
  • Sub oscillator with 1 or 2 octave down settings
  • White noise generator
  • Resonant lowpass filter
  • Two external audio inputs, one pre-VCA
  • ADSR envelope generator
  • LFO for modulation
  • Compatible only with analog CV and gate signals; no MIDI support
