Drone synthesis,
rhythmically sculpted.
μ-tant is built for producers who want to push synthesis beyond static patches into evolving, rhythmically alive textures.
2-Oscillator Wavetable Drone
Two wavetable oscillators run continuously, producing a permanent drone. Independent wavetable selection and position scanning on each oscillator — sweep through timbral space for shifting harmonic content.
Core VoiceFM & Ring Modulation
X-mod routes FM and ring modulation between the two oscillators. Dial in subtle harmonic enrichment or push into metallic, clangorous territory — all while the drone continuously evolves.
X-ModEnvelope Gate Sequencer
Up to 16 bars of step-based gating. Each step has its own customisable envelope — shape the attack from a hard chop to a slow, swelling fade. Per-step probability and loop-N-of-M gating add polyrhythmic variation.
SequencerPer-Step Filter & Pitch
Two filters — run them in series for deep sculpting or in parallel for split-band textures. Each step in the gate sequencer independently controls filter cutoff and pitch. Programme melodic sequences, filter sweeps, or pitch jumps — all driven by the envelope-gated drone.
Step Control8 Modulation Sources
Eight MSEG or stepped-sequence modulators per voice, routable to any parameter — wavetable position, oscillator pitch, filter cutoff, x-mod depth. The synthesis is never static unless you want it to be.
ModulationMixer & Sidechain
Identical mixer to μ-clid — three sends, two master inserts, sidechain on every channel. Any voice ducks any other, or from an external sidechain signal. Use a μ-clid kick to pump a μ-tant drone pad for classic electronic textures.
Mixing
Drone meets the sequencer.
Oscillators, x-mod, filters, and the envelope gate sequencer — shaping a continuous wavetable drone into rhythmic textures across up to 16 bars.
Dual oscillators with FM and ring modulation between them.
Per-step envelopes controlling gate, filter, and pitch across up to 16 bars.
Route modulators to wavetable position, pitch, filter, and x-mod depth.
