Alesis ION 49-Key 8-Voice Analog Modeling Synth
Ion is an affordable 49-key analog modeling synthesizer with bold sounds, a futuristic design, a turbo-charged sound engine, and a simple user interface. Driven by Alesis' proprietary 500 MIPS sound engine - delivering up to 5x the processing power of modeling synths which cost hundreds more - the Ion packs eight voices of smooth, high-bandwidth analog-style punch, with three oscillators and two multi-mode filters per voice. This impressive four-part multitimbral sound engine serves up everything from warm, round bass tones to lush pads and gritty lead sounds, making Ion perfect for music styles ranging from rock to funk and the latest house, techno and trance dance styles. The Ion's clean, intuitive user interface is comprised of 30 realtime control knobs, over 70 direct-access buttons, a pitch bend wheel, two assignable modulation wheels, and a large 160x160 graphic LCD . Everything from radical filter sweeps to subtle tonal changes can be performed in real-time, just like the classic analog synths of the past. The Ion's onboard effects include chorus, flange, phaser, echo, distortion, fuzz, compressor and more - plus a full-featured Vocoder, which can perform up to 40 bands of vocoding with no negative impact on polyphony. Connections include four balanced analog outputs, stereo balanced analog inputs, and MIDI In and Out/Thru ports. A built-in switching power supply is also included.
