Synthesizers

Synthesizers or Synths are electronic musical instruments, often resembling a keyboard and used to create organic digital sounds. Available in a range of sizes, shapes, and configurations; Synths also feature the ability to patch into one another for increased manipulation and sound modeling. Rising in popularity, the Synth was most prominent in disco during the 70's and 80's. While remaining a great tool for expressive live performances and unique studio applications. Most commonly found in the form of a keyboard, there are several different types of synths. Even battery-powered options that will fit in your pocket such as the popular Teenage Engineering Pocket Operators. Analog synthesizers work to generate sound from electronic circuits. While digital synthesizers create sound using the inbuilt computer chips. You'll find Bass synthesizers perfect for creating the bass line on your track. While a drum machine, also classed as a synth, usually features a number of pads used to trigger drum-like sounds. Including knobs and faders used for tweaking and altering your sound.
