New: The Arturia AstroLab!
The great new synthesizer from the popular brand Arturia is finally here! The AstroLab is ideal for musicians who create their own music, because the striking thing about this synthesizer is that it has 10 sound generators, while most synthesizers only have one. With these 10 sound generators it is possible to authentically replicate any instrument sound. The system also includes the Analog Lab which includes the sounds of many famous instruments, including the Yamaha CS-80, the Roland Juno-106, the Hammond B3 strings, and many more! Within Analog Lab you can even produce sounds and effects and use them with the AstroLab or use them in your DAW. The system also comes with 1300 presets which can be further customized with the eight knobs: four macro buttons for quick changes and four effect buttons. In addition, you can also add even more sounds to the AstroLab via the online library.
This may all sound quite complicated, but it actually isn't. Arturia has made sure that the user interface is easy to use. They have also used an intuitive navigation button that consists of a screen with a rotary knob around it. This makes all settings very clear. The other buttons are also simple: the macro buttons are rotary knobs with which you can adjust the brightness, timbre, rhythm and modulation. The four effect buttons consist of two buttons with which you can adjust your own effects and a delay and a reverb button.
