Mantis
Hybrid Analog Synthesizer
The Mantis by PWM is a duophonic analog synthesizer with two oscillators plus one sub oscillator per voice. It features two envelopes with sustain fall and envelope repeat, a multimode VCA filter with low pass, band pass and high pass (12 dB and 24 dB). The Mantis also features two LFOs that give you additional control over the sound, adding even more depth and texture.
