Digital Synths

Digital synths use digital signal processing to generate and shape sound, offering a wide palette that can range from classic synth tones to complex, modern textures. They are valued for their flexibility, stability and features such as presets, modulation options and integration with studio and live setups. If you enjoy exploring sound design with precision and versatility, digital synths provide powerful tools for creativity across many styles of music.

Keyboards

Keyboards are versatile electronic instruments used for learning, songwriting, production and live performance. They range from simple, portable models with built-in sounds to more advanced instruments designed for studio and stage use. If you want an accessible way to explore music across many styles, keyboards offer flexibility, convenience and creative freedom.

Pianos

Synths

Synths are electronic instruments designed for creating and shaping sound, from classic analogue-style tones to modern digital textures. Used for basslines, leads, pads and experimental sound design, they play a central role in many styles of music. If you enjoy hands-on creativity and exploring new sonic ideas, synths offer a powerful and expressive way to make music.

Desktop

Desktop refers to instruments designed for tabletop or studio use rather than keyboard-based performance. Desktop units are compact, self-contained devices controlled via knobs, buttons, sequencers, or external controllers, making them ideal for studio workflows and modular setups.

Digital

Digital is sound generation and processing based on digital signal processing rather than analogue circuitry. It is used for precise control, stable tuning, patch memory, and complex sound design that would be difficult to achieve with purely analogue systems. For example, a digital instrument might be used to create detailed evolving textures or realistic emulations while storing and recalling complete sound setups instantly.

Modular

Modular is a synthesis format made up of separate, interchangeable modules that are patched together to create custom signal paths. It allows complete freedom over sound design, sequencing, and modulation, with each system built to suit the user’s workflow and creative approach.

Semi-Modular

Semi-modular is an instrument design that combines a pre-wired internal signal path with the option to reroute and expand using patch connections. It is used to provide immediate, playable sound while still allowing deeper experimentation through external modulation and signal routing. For example, a semi-modular instrument can be played straight away as a complete synth, then patched into other modules or controllers to explore more complex sound design.

Synths

Synths are electronic instruments used to create and shape sound using oscillators, filters, envelopes, and modulation. They are used to produce basses, leads, pads, and textures that cannot be created easily with traditional instruments. For example, a synth might be used to design a deep bass line that evolves over time or a wide pad sound that fills space and adds atmosphere to a track.
