UDO Super 6 ST49 (Black)

The UDO Super 6 ST49 is a 49-key synthesizer featuring a polyphonic aftertouch keyboard, an advanced FPGA-based hybrid architecture, and a 12-voice polyphonic binaural analogue sound engine, delivering rich and immersive sonic possibilities. It is engineered for musicians and sound designers seeking precise control, dynamic expression, and complex sound creation.

Polyphonic Aftertouch Keyboard

Equipped with a 49-key semi-weighted Fatar keyboard, the Super 6 ST49 offers velocity sensitivity and independent polyphonic aftertouch control for each note. This feature enhances musical expression, allowing performers to add nuanced dynamics and modulation to their playing. Polyphonic aftertouch empowers users to create evolving and intricate performances, providing greater control over sound manipulation.

Binaural Hybrid Architecture

At the heart of the Super 6 ST49 lies its 12-voice polyphonic binaural hybrid engine, combining analogue warmth with digital precision. This innovative architecture offers expansive stereo textures, rich depth, and an immersive sound experience. The binaural design allows for dynamic spatial movement and complex stereo effects, making it ideal for both conventional soundscapes and experimental sound exploration.

Precision Analogue Filtering

The Super 6 ST49 features a 4-pole resonant state-variable filter with autotune, offering precise control over tone and resonance. This filter ensures accurate key tracking and provides maximum resonance control, allowing for refined, polished sounds. The combination of precise tuning and responsive filtering delivers high-quality sound shaping, whether for smooth analogue tones or more aggressive, experimental designs.

Modulation Capabilities

The synthesizer’s powerful modulation system offers multiple options for sound shaping. It includes LFO1 with six selectable waveforms, a one-shot mode, and key tracking that enhances FM performance. The modulation matrix is intuitive, enabling complex routing and sound manipulation with ease. The left-to-right phase slider, unique to the Super 6 ST49, fully exploits the binaural architecture, adding spatial movement and increasing the stereo depth of the sound.

Dual DDS Oscillators

The Super 6 ST49 is equipped with dual DDS oscillators that run at 50MHz sample rates, featuring a super wavetable core. This includes a master oscillator and six phase-corrected sister oscillators, providing expansive stereo width and harmonically rich textures. The oscillators offer FM, sync, sub-oscillator, and X-fade modes, allowing the user to craft a wide range of sounds, from classic analogue to futuristic experimental tones.

Build and Durability

The Super 6 ST49 combines a durable, compact chassis with highly responsive controls, designed for both studio use and live performances. The semi-weighted Fatar keyboard offers an engaging playing experience, while the sleek blue-coated finish makes the synthesizer stand out visually. With a weight of 9.7kg, it is easily portable yet built to withstand the rigours of continuous use, making it an excellent choice for musicians who need a reliable, high-quality instrument.

Additional Features

In addition to its advanced synthesis capabilities, the Super 6 ST49 includes dual stereo 24-bit digital effects, enhancing its versatility and sonic possibilities. The synthesizer supports external audio input with an audio trigger, enabling seamless integration with other gear. It also features a step sequencer and an arpeggiator to further expand its creative potential. A flexible modulation matrix, with multi-purpose LFOs and envelopes, ensures that the Super 6 ST49 remains a dynamic tool for sound design and live performance.
