Two Peaks in one synth - and then some
The 16-voice, multitimbral engine
combines two simultaneous patches. Split or stack them for
keyboard-divided or layered sounds, or switch the entire synth between
two separate and independently controlled setups, perhaps using one as
an effects processor for an external input source. Summit can also use
all your Peak patches.
Our best 61-key keyboard ever
Five-octave, semi-weighted,
velocity-sensitive keyboard with aftertouch – the same premium-quality
keybed as introduced with our SL MkIII controller keyboard.
New Oxford educated
Digital New Oxford Oscillators are
capable of subtractive, FM and wavetable synthesis. Waveforms are
generated directly on the FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) chip,
using 24MHz bitstream processing; and adjustable drift and divergence
emulate the inherent and often desirable instability of analogue
circuits.
True analogue filters and distortion
The New Oxford Oscillators output to
true analogue filters, with origins in the classic OSCar synth, and
three stages of analogue distortion give you ample saturation options.
Dual filters
Summit’s dual filter is switchable
between six paired combinations of low-pass, high-pass and band-pass
modes at 12dB/octave, or any single mode at 24dB/octave, for a broad
range of sonic possibilities.
Hands-on sound design
Packed with modulation sources for deep
sound design – LFOs, envelopes, Animate buttons and more. Extended
controls see FM parameters, envelope loop switches and LFOs 3/4 moved
from Peak’s menu system to the front panel, for easy programming and
tweaking.
Audio in and auxiliary audio out
Hook up external instruments for processing with Summit’s onboard effects, while using it as a synth at the same time.
Powerful effects
Onboard reverb, chorus and delay effects
are hosted on the FPGA. They’re also controlled directly from the front
panel, and available as modulation targets in the dedicated FX Mod
Matrix.
