Five-way DRIFT modulation
With five dedicated DRIFT joysticks, the Driftbox W offers unparalleled modulation control. Each joystick modulates a different parameter, allowing you to affect everything from oscillation frequency and volume to delay time and filter levels. This feature gives you a vast range of creative possibilities, enabling fluid real-time modulation for dynamic soundscapes and constantly evolving tones. Whether crafting subtle shifts or dramatic changes, the DRIFT sticks are at the heart of the Driftbox W’s innovative sound design capabilities.
Dual VCOs with cross-modulation
The Driftbox W features a dual VCO setup, providing a frequency range of 0.1 Hz to 10 kHz. By enabling cross-modulation between oscillators, you can create harmonically rich and complex tones with ease. This setup allows for a deep level of frequency modulation, adding a layer of unpredictability that can transform simple waves into evolving, detailed soundscapes. For those who enjoy exploring the edge of synthesis, the cross-modulation offers unique and engaging sonic possibilities.
Integrated delay with feedback modulation
This synthesizer includes a built-in delay effect with feedback modulation, allowing you to create rich, textured sounds that go beyond standard delay. The delay feedback function adds depth and resonance, perfect for creating ambient layers or rhythmic effects. You can adjust delay time and output level through dedicated joystick controls, making it easy to add nuanced modulation for an expansive audio experience.
Classic analog warmth with modern versatility
Built entirely with analog circuitry, the Driftbox W provides the warmth and responsiveness that only true analog synthesis can deliver. Its -24 dB/octave ladder low-pass filter brings a smooth, natural roll-off, ideal for deep bass tones and resonant sweeps. The additional external output terminals for joystick signals and CV/Gate input expand its flexibility, making it a perfect choice for integration into a larger analog setup or modular rig.
