Subharmonicon is a semi-modular polyrhythmic analog synthesizer that employs a 6-tone sound engine and multi-layered sequencers to explore the world of subharmonics, polyrhythms, and the unique relationships they create.
Subharmonicon’s characteristic sound starts with two analog VCOs and four
Subharmonic Oscillators for a total of six powerful sound sources. Each
subharmonic tone is mathematically derived from one of the two main VCOs, giving
the resulting chord shapes a beautifully coherent quality. Onboard quantization
lets you dial in perfect intervals every time with selections for multiple
tuning systems. Choose from contemporary Equal Temperament settings, the
heavenly intervals of Just Intonation, or the unlimited freedom of no
quantization at all.
Animating Subharmonicon’s distinctive chord shapes is done through a
polyrhythmic pair of 4-Step Sequencers. Each sequencer is clocked by any or all
of four Rhythm Generators that output mathematical divisions of the master
tempo. Layer multiple Rhythm Generators on top of each other to create complex
polyrhythms and discover inspiring new patterns and styles. Delve into
Subharmonicon’s dual Envelope Generators, Moog Ladder Filter, and analog VCA to
call up dynamic articulations ranging from lush pads and blurred edges to
percussive plosives and ritualistic rhythms.
Although no patching is required to start creating, exploring Subharmonicon’s
modular patchbay unlocks worlds of possibilities as you make novel connections
and plug into new ideas. The 32-point 3.5mm patchbay can be patched into itself,
expanding Subharmonicon’s onboard capabilities, or interfaced with Mother-32,
DFAM, and other external Eurorack-compatible gear (MIDI Type A adapter included
for DIN to 3.5mm MIDI input). Use as a standalone synth with included +12V DC
power supply or simply remove the front panel to install into any Eurorack
system.
The Moog Subharmonicon is a versatile analog labyrinth of subharmonically derived synthesis and polyrhythmic sound, equally suited for losing oneself and simultaneously finding oneself.
