Frap Tools Magnolia Keyboard 5 octaves - 8 voice
Eight voice analog polysynth with though zero FM
The Magnolia is Fraptools' latest flagship synthesizer. It has eight analog voices, each with two oscillators (carrier and modulator) and two filters (high-pass and low-pass). Like any modern flagship synthesiser, it has a Fatar keyboard with polyphonic aftertouch. The carrier oscillator has a through-zero core, which enables precise, sideband-rich analog FM sounds to be produced. Everything is possible, from pads to growling basses, and you can even use the filter as a sound source. With an integrated wave shaper per voice and variable waveforms, it is possible to sculpt sounds in the style of the West Coast. The filter in the Magnolia is the renowned Cunsa and the oscillator is the unparalleled Brenso!
Each voice has two oscillators with very different characteristics: oscillator 1 is the 'West Coast' oscillator with FM, wavefolder and flip sync, while oscillator 2 is the 'East Coast' oscillator with PWM and fine-tune. Whether you want experimental FM sounds or classic, punchy synth brass, they are at your fingertips. Modulation is super flexible on Magnolia: just push a button and rotate a knob to assign a modulation.
