In our company, «simplicity» is our buzzword !

So if you are asking yourself «what is a synthesizer ?» In fact it is really simple.  By using electrical circuits in synthesizers, you can manipulate the 3 parts of a sound, Pitch (or frequency), Amplitude (volume) and Timbre (tone or brightness) to create new sounds or simulate existing ones.

Afterthat it is just about taking time to learn how to add sound effetcs to the sound you have created with your synth! 

You will love our Intuitive and tactile user interface . . . it provides unlimited potential for any musician !

Acxel2 ... The Formula 1 of Synthesizers !

Acxel2 is a new upgradeable multi-synthesis and multi-timbral modular synthesizer offering: Additive synthesis, Re-synthesis, Expanded synthesis and Analog synthesis. Acxel2 introduces its native analysis synthesis mode: the Acxelink®.

All Acxel2 musical instruments can be used with any DAW (Pro Tools, Cakewalk, Cubase, Steinberg, Logic, etc.), can operate under Apple or Windows platform and can be used as  "slave" or "master" with any MIDI or audio analog entry (keyboard, guitar, microphone, etc ...).

All our products incorporate the Acxel2 re-programmable microprocessor RPP renowned for its extreme reliability and execution speed, dramatically superior to any DSP chips currently available on the market. 

Through synthesis and processing of native Acxel2, processing options and sound changes are virtually unlimited. The Acxel2 can emulate any synthesis known modes or original combinations of synthesis modes, effects and signal processing, modification in sounds envelope or articulation ... all in real time!


« There is no synthesizer like the Acxel2 ! »

A synthesizer usually includes a keyboard to play the instrument. The Acxel2 does not have a keyboard, so it can be played from any analog-audio input (microphone, guitar, violin, saxophone, flute, vocals, etc. ..), MIDI input or from the mouse of a computer. So any non-musician or musician can use the Acxel2 with the knowledge and control of his instrument, or simply with a computer ... the synthesizer is no longer the preserve of the keyboardists and pianists!

The Acxel2 is the only synth in the world to use in Real Time the technique of "re-synthesis", in addition to other known synthesis modes.

The Acxel2 can reproduce and modify the sound of any musical instrument and apply hundreds of sound effects (chorus, multidelay, reverb, 3D, sympathy, sheppard, morphing, echoes, etc. ..), moreover the Acxel2 works on the structure of the sound so that you can work on it in real time, in a very intuitive manner. This synthesizer can also create new original and unique sounds or replace any sound card in an existing electronic equipment. The Acxel2 can manage many changes of sounds, instruments and effects simultaneously and even several musicians at once, in "real time", without any audible break! This innovation is made possible through the
RPP processor, equivalent to 100 computers running at the same time!

 

Breathtaking performances !
