High-Resolution Audio Engine
The Synthux Touch 2 boasts a high-fidelity 96kHz / 24-bit audio engine, supporting complex audio processing tasks like multi-voice synthesis and granular effects, ideal for professional studio and live settings.
KEY FEATURES
The Synthux Touch 2 is a highly customisable, open-source synthesizer powered by the Daisy Seed microcontroller, offering a 96kHz / 24-bit audio engine, an ARM Cortex-M7 MCU running at 480MHz, and 64MB of SDRAM capable of handling up to ten-minute audio buffers. Designed for tactile interaction, it features touch-sensitive controls, assignable faders, rotary pots, and a modular front panel system that allows users to swap interfaces and redefine its functionality on the fly.
Modular Design with Swappable Front Panels
Touch 2 is not limited to a single instrument configuration. The modular front panel system allows for seamless transformation between different synth engines, from deep bass synthesis to distorted strings, delays, reverbs, and advanced effects processing. Pre-designed panels such as Touch Bass, Touch String, and Touch FX provide ready-to-use configurations, while a blank panel option enables custom interface designs, making it a fully adaptable platform for electronic musicians, sound designers, and developers.
Open-Source Firmware for Expanding Sound Engines
Synthux has developed an active community-driven ecosystem where users can upload new firmware via USB, instantly repurposing Touch 2 into a different instrument. The open-source nature of the platform allows developers to create and share firmware, ensuring a constantly expanding library of synthesis engines and effects processors. This approach enhances longevity, making Touch 2 a flexible, future-proof instrument.
High-Fidelity Sound Processing
Touch 2 harnesses the power of the Daisy Seed microcontroller, delivering high-resolution 96kHz / 24-bit audio quality. Capable of functioning as a stereo looper, a multi-voice subtractive synthesizer, a granular processor, or even a drum machine, it meets professional standards for live performance and studio production. The extensive audio buffer capacity allows for long sample manipulation, ensuring complex layering and deep sonic exploration.
Standalone DAWless Performance and Multi-Unit Integration
Designed for hands-on performance, Touch 2 operates without a digital audio workstation (DAW), making it ideal for standalone setups. Multiple units can be connected to form a larger modular system, enabling real-time interaction between different synthesis engines and effects processors. This feature enhances live improvisation and creative experimentation, offering a dynamic workflow for electronic musicians and sound designers.
A Developer's Platform for Custom Instrument Design
Beyond its function as a synthesizer, Touch 2 serves as an affordable and fully equipped development board for the Daisy Seed ecosystem. Equipped with a built-in touch sensor, stereo input/output, assignable faders, potentiometers, and switches, it provides a comprehensive playground for developers looking to build and experiment with digital and hybrid instruments. Synthux Academy offers extensive GitHub repositories and video tutorials, supporting users in firmware development and hardware modifications. The Synthux Discord community further facilitates collaboration and knowledge sharing among makers, programmers, and electronic musicians.
The Ultimate Tactile Synthesizer for Creators
With its swappable panels, open-source firmware, high-fidelity audio processing, and robust developer support, Touch 2 redefines modular synthesis in a compact, hands-on format. Whether used as a performance instrument, an experimental sound engine, or a development platform, it provides endless possibilities for sonic innovation.
