A breathtaking modular analog synthesizer system.
Modstar Seito Rising is at once a spine-soothing and bone jarring selection of Boomstar modular products that work together seamlessly to manifest in a single incredible instrument. The Modstar Seito Rising comprises MIDI 3 6hp, Router 2hp, Oscillation (x2) 32hp, 4075 12hp, M 2hp, Levels 10hp, Sci-Fi 10hp, Shapers 12hp, Amp 8hp, LFO 2 6hp, and Outs 6hp. All is housed and powered in a sleek and sturdy, carbon-fibre black MONOROCKET M6E case.
Details:
SCI FI: Ring Mod, White and Pink Noise, Sample and Hold, “Classic Synth Toolbox,” with LFO and slewing control of S&H
SHAPERS: Dual four stage envelope generator with independently adjustable ATTACK, DECAY, SUSTAIN, and RELEASE stages
AMP: 2 stage Class A discrete design, using 3 pairs of hand matched transistors; Drive—‘70s era “Drive” overdrive/distortion and handy “Drone” control—sends itself its own gate impulse
LFO2: Potent all analog dual LFO module—two different low frequency oscillator circuits provide a variety of modulation options
OUTS: Dual independent output module featuring a stereo 1/4" headphone amplifier output and dual mono 1/4" line level outputs; calibrated and optimized for Boomstar Modular
MIDI 3: Third generation extremely full-featured MIDI to CV converter; calibrated and optimized for Boomstar Modular
MULTIPLE: Passive utility module with two independent sections of four linked jacks—splits signals into three copies
OSCILLATION: (x2) Class-A, discrete, DC coupled, output buffered, exponential current source, vintage-designed analog oscillator
4075: Arp-flavored Discrete, voltage controlled, 24/db/oct cascaded transconductance low-pass filter—six pairs of hand-matched transistors—really a 4-pole ARP 4072 (better: more parts and trims)
ROUTER (R): Bidirectional audio/CV switcher
LEVELS: Versatile, low-noise six-channel summing mixer/attenuator for audio and CV—pots are wired with logarithmic volume curves
