Monumatic is a fully polyphonic 8-voice synthesizer and a monophonic synthesizer packed into a compact 12HP Eurorack module.
It features16 selectable oscillator modes to provide a diverse range of both classic and futuristic tone generation using exclusively virtual analog algorithms. These include; Roland super-saw, Polymoog vox humana, Casio phase distortion, Solina string synth, percussive drawbar organs , “noisy cassette” strings, pulse width modulation and some gnarly asymmetric sync oscillators, all modelled without samples and each one of these customisable using the Detune control and each providing the foundation for further signal processing though the filter and effects sections.
6 powerful filter types are provided, including a vocal vowel filter, a 24db/oct Butterworth low pass filter, a dual peak notch filter and a phase shifter, each of which features an overdrive setting.
Like its sibling module Poly Cinematic, Monumatic is designed to be simple to use yet versatile, offering minimal controls to access a wealth of sounds, avoiding the need to scroll through 1000s of complex presets.
Monumatic supports full analog control of every parameter, with two instantly assignable CV inputs, as well as dedicated CV inputs for Gate, V/Oct and Filter cutoff, with additional digital control using comprehensive Midi CC and MPE implementation. An altogether unparalleled potential for expansion and integration into the Eurorack universe.
As well as full midi capability, the 8 built-in chord presets can be custom programmed to provide polyphonic stabs and pads and using a single CV/Gate input, arpeggios can be layered polyphonically or “plucked” using long release times. The mono/poly function allows the Monumatic to switch between a fully capable poly synth or a mono synth at the touch of a button.
In polyphonic mode Monumatic introduces an advanced micro-tuning system to modular synthesis, it can replicate the organic drift of vintage analog oscillators or it can apply realtime tuning temperaments to enhance harmonic authenticity using ‘just’ intonation, this parameter can even be assigned to CV control.
