• Only 0.9 kg – USB-C or battery powered

Powerful Sound Engine

Diosynth’s hybrid sound architecture combines two Wavescan oscillators (219 waveforms with morphing), a sample oscillator, a noise generator, and sample-based details like key-off and breath noise. You can create deeply layered and hybrid tones, blending realism with modulation and FX.

The engine supports dual-part layering or split setups, perfect for creative live use – e.g. playing a bass drone on the lower range and a soaring lead on top.

Advanced Expressive Control

Diosynth offers a fully expressive playing experience: the breath sensor reacts to air pressure, while the bite sensor handles vibrato, pitch bend, or modulation. Add an XY joystick, two pressure-sensitive pads, three programmable switches, and a built-in gyroscope that modulates sound based on movement – e.g. tilting the instrument increases filter cutoff or changes harmonic content.

Deep Sample Library

Included are 128 meticulously recorded instruments, including full flute and sax families (from piccolo to Eb Tubax), double reeds, trumpets, strings, world flutes and rare instruments. ASM also created hybrids like Flutasaurus© and Obassoon – multi-sample patches covering 8+ octave ranges with expressive dynamics.

Modulation and Effects

Diosynth offers 5 LFOs (with step sequencing), 5 envelopes (loopable), a 32-slot modulation matrix, and a suite of insert and master effects like Delay, Reverb, Chorus, Flanger, Overdrive, Compressor, Auto Wah, and more. A unique “Growl FX” (ring modulator) lets you simulate overblown or growling wind effects — perfect for jazz or cinematic textures.

Software Editor & App

The Diosynth Manager app (Mac/PC and iOS/Android) makes patch management and sound editing easy. Use drag-and-drop to organize banks, assign favorites for live shows, and configure all performance settings visually.
