Near MINT TEMPEST Analog Drum Machine. Fully programmable analog drum machine/synthesiser. Perfectly working. Great sounding. Perfect cosmetic condition. Latest operating system installed. OS Version 1.4.0 With original box and manual and power supply. Owned since its release in 2013 but hardly used. It's been kept in its box most of the time since I purchased it brand new from DSI.This is a great fully programmable analogue drum machine / synth. It has a versatile touch pad real time/step midi sequencer and powerful analog synthesis capabilities with loads of hands on live control. 16 illuminating drum pads serve a range of functions and can be used in different ways e.g. step sequencer, real-time sequencer, live performance of drum sounds or synth parts, selecting beats. It has lots of knobs and 2 sliders for real time control of sound parameters. It’s a very versatile and professional instrument. As well as the standard waveforms (sine, pulse, saw etc.) it comes with hundreds of samples that can be used for the synth too. http://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/dave-smith-instruments-tempesthttps://www.davesmithinstruments.com/product/tempest/Tempest SpecificationsOSCILLATORSTwo analog oscillators per voice capable of producing sawtooth, triangle, saw/triangle, and variable pulse width square waves, with hard syncTwo digital oscillators per voice loaded with over 450 drum samples and waveformsOne sub-octave generator per voice (one octave below oscillator 1)Glide (portamento): separate rates per oscillatorFILTEROne classic Curtis analog low-pass filter per voice (switchable 2- or 4-pole) with audio rate modulation, self-oscillating in 4-pole modeOne analog high-pass filter per voiceVCAAnalog VCAs with programmable feedback levelENVELOPESFive envelope generators per voice (ADSR plus hold)LFOS2 LFOs per voiceMODULATION8 x 8 modulation matrixCONTROLLERS16 pressure and velocity sensitive lit padsTwo pressure and position sensitive touch slidersStunning OLED 256 x 64 displayEFFECTSAnalog compressor and distortion (available on Main audio outputs)SEQUENCERSophisticated realtime sequencerRoger Linn Designed Swing modesHardware MIDI delay per voiceMEMORY650 Sound Program locationsIN/OUTUSB type B receptacleMIDI In, OutMain audio outputs: 1/4″ phone jack (unbalanced)6 individual voice audio outputs: 1/4″ stereo phone jack (unbalanced)Two pedal/control voltage (3.3 VDC max.) input (1/4″ TRS phone jack)Headphone output: 1/4″ TRS stereo phone jack
