Lancer's Lash

Shakmat's 8 HP snare drum synthesizer: seven models of snare, from the classic analog drum machine's to physical modelling, FM, granular and 70s funk samples, each played by four controls, DECAY, TIMBRE, COLOR and PITCH, with its own effect. A randomizer varies the parameters at each trigger, a velocity input shapes each hit, and 256 presets are recalled by hand, by CV or over the Select Bus.
