Paraphonic Portable Synthesizers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The 'Uno Synth Pro' Can Generate An Array Of Sounds & Textures

— January 13, 2021 — Tech
Italian music technology firm IK Multimedia has developed an innovative portable synthesizer, dubbed the Uno Synth Pro, that is a veritable upgrade on the successful and much more compact Uno Synth.

The Uno Synth Pro is a paraphonic device, which means that it uses multiple oscillators that route through the same signal route to play a variety of notes. The device offers 256 preset slots to allow creators to save their settings, while an array of sequencing steps and automation parameters make it easy to create and record tracks. The inclusion of a pair of envelopes and low-frequency oscillating options allows for the creation of a variety of audio textures and sounds.

Available in $400 and $650 versions, the Uno Synth Pro is a high-quality mid-range portable synthesizer.
Trend Themes
1. Paraphonic Synthesizers - As more musicians turn to portable, DIY studios, innovation in portable, paraphonic synthesizers could provide opportunities for music technology startups.
2. Automated Track Creation - The integration of sequencing steps and automated parameters in synthesizers like the Uno Synth Pro opens up the possibility for AI-assisted song creation, presenting an opportunity for music and tech collaborations to explore.
3. Customizable Synth Presets - The Uno Synth Pro's 256 preset slots can allow for personalized, modular sound preferences, with opportunities for music technology companies to create marketable sound libraries and presets.
Industry Implications
1. Music Technology - Expanding the high-quality portable synthesizer market offers music technology startups a great opportunity to innovate and differentiate.
2. Home Recording Studios - With more artists creating their own records in makeshift studios, the need for portable and affordable instruments has increased, creating opportunities for music technology innovators.
3. Professional Audio Equipment - Paraphonic synthesizers have the potential to replace traditional audio setups, opening up opportunities for high-end, streamlined audio equipment tech to enter the market.
