Analog synthesizer fans in search of an affordable, 100% analog synthesizer will love Cre8audio West Pest, a west-coast-style semimodular synthesizer with a big, fat-sounding voltage-controlled oscillator, a wavefolder, a dynamics controller, and several performance features. The instrument can be removed from its desktop enclosure and placed into a 40 HP Eurorack case.

Designed in collaboration with Pittsburgh Modular, West Pest is made from modern components, which provide a super-rich, unique sound with stability. Instead of a filter, West Pest utilizes a custom wavefolder to shape the sound, which adds additional dimensions to West Pest's already unique sounding oscillator core. The dynamics controller combines the functionality of a VCA with a low-pass filter to imitate the behavior of soundwaves in the real world. West Pest includes a power adapter, four Nazca Noodles patch cables, and two 3.5mm to 5-pin DIN MIDI pigtails.

Key Features:

• West Coast-style synthesis freshly reimagined to deliver new musical opportunities
• Custom-designed analog oscillator includes frequency modulation and 3 waveform options to craft your sound
• Precision-engineered wave folding provides rich harmonics and overtones
• Dynamics Controller produces life-like waveform values with its dynamic self-modulation and vactrol-less lowpass gate circuit
• 32-step sequencer allows for robust building options with room for 13 storable presets
• Dual range analog LFO features square and triangle wave outputs
• Remove the module to secure within your Eurorack setup (40HP)
• 18 patch points offer robust access to voltage-controlling parameters
• Full MIDI in/out/thru means even greater interoperative potential
