Dive into a world of sonic possibilities with the Pittsburgh Modular Taiga Keyboard Semi-modular Analog Synthesizer. This innovative instrument builds upon the acclaimed Taiga synthesizer, integrating the same powerful analog synthesis innovations into a 37-key aftertouch-enabled keybed. The Taiga Keyboard is designed for both immediate sound creation and deep modular exploration, making it a versatile tool for musicians and sound designers alike.

The heart of this synthesizer is a triad of 100% analog oscillators, each capable of generating classic waveforms like sine, triangle, and saw, and enhanced with a 6-stage wavefolder. This allows for intricate harmonic shaping and rich, complex soundscapes. The signature Pittsburgh "No Dead Spots" filter offers versatile sound sculpting capabilities across lowpass, bandpass, and highpass modes, ensuring smooth transitions and a warm, resonant sound.

Expand your creative horizons with the Modular Expansion Bay, complete with a 24HP Eurorack space for adding your preferred modules. The 64-point patch bay offers unmatched flexibility, enabling you to reroute internal signal paths or integrate external devices. Whether you're crafting lush pads, vibrant leads, or intricate sequences, the Taiga Keyboard is your gateway to expressive sound design.
