Ease of Use

8
Dont forget that this virtual (synth) system can also be used as a great effects processor. With its 2 inputs (4 out)and the 19" housing it can be mounted in a rack, featuring 18 assignable knobs.
See "Clavia Modular" in the Synth Database.

Its modules can be patched (with a PC editor) to really strange sound processing "sculptures". Cant describe them... If you need/want this kind of "obvious", unusual effects, that are offered for example by the TC Fireworx, you have to really think about Clavia Modular. It's flexible (a synth too of course...), user friendly (editing on PC screen) and even a bit cheaper than the TC and similars. Interesting modules for sound processing: vocoder, filters, dynamic processors, phaser, distorsions, sequencers, envelope follower. And of course all the rest like oscillators, LFOs, EGs, logic processing. New modules announced.
See "Clavia Modular" in the Synth Database. "Sound quality" is same as "Nordlead 2" in the Synth Database (Almost the same algorithms, but of course more of them in the Modular)
