8보이스 폴리포닉 신디사이저
Peak는 깊고 활기 있는 사운드에 거칠고 강한 오버드라이브가 특징입니다. 보이스당 뉴옥스포드 오실레이터 3개를 지원하는 8음성 데스크탑 폴리포닉 신시사이저입니다. 보이스마다 웅장한 멀티 모드 아날로그 필터가 있으며, 아날로그 시그널 체인 내 왜곡 포인트 3개가 있습니다.
아날로그와 디지털을 넘나들다
Peak의 디자인 컨설턴트는 Bass Station, Supernova, OSCar 등 수많은 유명한 신시사이저를 디자인한 Chris Huggett입니다. 아날로그 모노신스 Bass Station II에 기반을 두고 있는 Peak의 오실레이터는 고품질 수치 제어 오실레이터(NCO)로 완전한 아날로그 사운드를 제공하는 한편, 디지털 웨이브테이블 60개로 디지털 영역 또한 커버합니다.
품격 있는 새로운 사운드 제작
일렉트로닉 음악의 지평을 넓히고, 새로운 영감과 예술가적 모험을 즐겨보세요. Peak의 모듈레이션 시스템을 사용해 주 제어판에 가장 자주 사용되는 배치들을 우선 설정할 수 있습니다. 정교한 퍼포먼스와 기타 배치들도 메뉴 버튼 몇 개만 누르면 사용이 가능하죠.
Wavetable Editor
The Wavetable Editor unleashes the power of the wavetable oscillators. It features drawing tools and a Live Edit mode, so you can draw your own oscillator shapes and preview them in real time. Audio import lets you load in your own audio to be used as the oscillator waveform. Included is a curated selection of space-themed audio from the NASA sound library, plus exclusive content from production giants Noisia.
거의 모든 장치에 연결 가능
사용자의 Mac 또는 PC에 USB를 통해 Peak를 연결해 바로 연주를 시작해보세요. 5핀 딘 포트의 MIDI I/O으로 다른 MIDI 장비와도 연결할 수 있죠. CV 모듈레이션 입력을 통해 모듈식 시스템으로 연결도 가능합니다.
셋업에서 Peak의 역할은?
Key Features
Two ways to create waveforms
Analogue-sounding NCOs (Numerically-Controlled Oscillators) and 60 digital wavetables.
A colossal amount of distortion
Three distortion points for each voice – pre-filter, post-filter and global – in an analogue signal chain.
Control expression
Peak is capable of receiving polyphonic aftertouch, which puts expression right at your fingertips.
Cross-modulate oscillators
The three New Oxford Oscillators for each voice can become a linear FM source using either the analogue-sounding NCOs (Numerically-Controlled Oscillators) or digital wavetables. They are also able to cross-modulate in a recursive loop.
Huge modulation system
16-slot modulation matrix and 16 direct assignments controlled from the front panel, cleverly arranged for intuitive patch design and sound editing. Three ADSR envelopes and two LFOs for each voice.
Easily switch modulations
Two animate buttons give live performers instant one-touch transformation of patches.
Mind-blowing sounds on-board
Reverb, delay and chorus at your disposal, and there’s also an arpeggiator.
Connect to hardware and software
Connect and sync to your music software and MIDI-compatible hardware. CV modulation input used to slot together modular systems.
Store unlimited sounds
Keep as many patches as you like on your Mac or PC using the Components software. Learn more about Components here.
Peak Firmware Update v2.0
In Novation’s biggest update for Peak, firmware update v2.0 brings a multitude of features across stereo controls, modulation and unpredictability, and effects, that give you powerful tools to shape your sound.
Create more intricately textured soundscapes with updated stereo controls. Experiment with expansive sound design with modulation and unpredictability. A range of effects improvements bring new tonalities with the addition of Chorus Modes, Flanger, Phlanger, new effects modulation destinations and Lo-Fi delay.
