The New Oxford digital oscillators from Summit offer subtractive, FM, and wavetable synthesis and power authentic dual analog filters, distortion, and VCA.
The multitimbral engine allows for the merging and combining of two complete and independent patches, while up to 16 simultaneous voices provide enough harmonic depth even for the richest pads.
