Synthesizers – Analog, Digital and Modular Sound Generation

Synthesizers – Analog, Digital and Modular Sound Generation

A synthesizer builds sound from scratch instead of playing back a recording — oscillators, filters and modulation instead of samples. This collection spans every format we carry, from keyboard synths through desktop boxes to modular systems.

What's inside

Analog, digital or hybrid

An analog synth generates sound with real analog circuitry — the sound most people mean by "warm" and "fat." A digital synth like Elektron Digitone II uses FM and other digital synthesis methods for sounds analog circuits can't easily produce — bells, metallic tones, complex evolving textures. Hybrid designs combine an analog signal path with digital control and modulation, getting the character of analog with the recall and precision of digital.

Where to start

Want one instrument that's genuinely patchable and still has a keyboard? Moog Grandmother is the semi-modular synth we point most first-time patchers to. Need deep digital sound design instead? Elektron Digitone II pairs FM synthesis with a proper sequencer.

Your first synthesizer and budget

Under about €120 you'll find Teenage Engineering's pocket instruments, the PO-16 factory, PO-24 office and PO-28 robot, and the analog Korg Volca Bass. Between €250 and €500 sit the full instruments: Waldorf Protein, Elektron Model:Cycles, Arturia MicroFreak Vocoder Edition, Novation Bass Station II and KORG minilogue. Above that come instruments with more voices and wider synthesis, like the Elektron Digitone II or the Moog Subsequent 37. Not sure where to start? Play a few in the showroom.

The brands we carry

We carry Moog, Elektron, Waldorf, Sequential and Arturia.

Hear it in our Warsaw showroom

The biggest difference between us and a mail-order shop: you can hear the gear before you buy it. Our showroom at Nowogrodzka 6A/102 in Warsaw is there so you can try it on your own material, not a shop demo. Book a visit or just swing by — we'll help without the sales pitch. Call: +48 573 580 840.

FAQ

Analog or digital synth for a first instrument?

Analog if you want an immediate, hands-on feel and a classic character. Digital if you want sounds analog circuits can't easily make, and the ability to save and recall patches instantly.

Do I need a modular system, or is a regular synth enough?

A regular synth covers most needs. Modular is for when you want to design the signal path yourself, not just the sound within a fixed one — it's a different hobby as much as a different instrument.

What's the difference between a synthesizer and a sampler?

A synthesizer generates sound from oscillators and filters. A sampler plays back and manipulates recorded audio. See our Samplers category if that's what you're after.

What types of synthesizers are there?

Analog synths shape sound with electronic circuits and have a warm, slightly unpredictable character. Digital ones offer precision and preset memory, hybrids combine digital oscillators with an analog filter, and modular systems are built from separate modules connected with cables.

Which synthesizer should a beginner buy?

Preferably a digital or hybrid one with preset memory and a sequencer. In our range, around €250–350 gets you the Waldorf Protein, Elektron Model:Cycles or Arturia MicroFreak. The cheapest way in is a pocket Teenage Engineering PO for €80–95.

Which synthesizers are popular?

We stock, among others, the Moog Subsequent 37, Elektron Digitone II and Waldorf Protein. The right choice depends on whether you want to play on a keyboard or build tracks from sequences.
