Alesis Ships A6 Andromeda to Rave Reviews

SANTA MONICA, CALIF.--Upholding the legacy of classical American synthesizers, Alesis Corporation ships the A6 Andromeda, a real analog polyphonic synthesizer. Designed with 16 true analog voices and 16-channel multitimbral functionality with full MIDI implementation, A6 stands in contrast to the myriad of other digital analog-style synths on the market today--offering more voices, a more powerful voice engine and the natural variability and warmth of real analog sound.

{2093.gifr"Analog synthesizers have never before been as popular as in today's music," explains Arnd Kaiser, Alesis Marketing Manager. "When you tune into your favorite top 40 or dance station, the largest portion of synthesizer sounds that you hear are analog, but these were probably sampled or digitally modeled from vintage analog synthesizers. The real warmth, the dynamic power and character of the real analog synthesizer, has become almost forgotten--which is why we're so excited to be shipping this powerful product. It's the world's first and only 16-voice polyphonic, real analog synthesizer."

Professional producer and keyboard artist Brian Kehew relates, "The A6 has incredible flatness, punch and power. There are many beautiful parts to this keyboard, as well as aggressive functions. I'm extremely picky about sound quality and I'm extremely happy with the Andromeda. It's just an amazing product. I can see having this keyboard for 10 years and never bumping into the ceiling of what it can do."

The Alesis A6 Andromeda combines the warmth and feel that only a true analog synth can offer, with some of the most advanced chip technology ever designed for a musical instrument. Each voice has two independent oscillators and filters, for a total of 32 oscillators and 32 filters. In addition, it offers both analog and digital effects on board--something no other synthesizer has ever offered before. The traditional analog-style step sequencer and independent arpeggiator are programmable for each sound independently, offering users unprecedented sonic control and artistic freedom.

The powerful modulation engine and the envelope generators combined, make the Andromeda the most powerful non-modular synth ever made. Every parameter of the Andromeda can be controlled via MIDI, and every knob is designed to send MIDI information

Arnd Kaiser relates, "This is the most intuitive and easy-to-use front panel and user interface that you've ever seen on any synthesizer before. Any parameter of the instrument will never be more than two button presses away. The A6 has a total of 72 knobs, and 144 buttonsÑmore than any other synth on the market--yet its incredibly user-friendly, and features a graphic expression of every logarithmic function. Users can actually see the shape of the envelope at any stage, which makes A6 extremely easy to program. It also makes it impossible to get lost. The large display will always tell you where you are."

"It took tremendous technology and commitment to program Andromeda," comments Jim Mack, Alesis Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "The key to Andromeda's success is our dedicated chip technology--designed by our founder Keith Barr. The result of which is that all other synth manufacturers are constrained by digital technology, making Alesis is the only manufacturer equipped to bring an all-analog powerhouse to market. This achievement shows Alesis' tremendous diversity and dedication."

'What I really love about this A6 is that you can reach for a knob, at any given point, and it's going to do something completely different today than what it did yesterday. That just lends itself to creativity and experimentation," confesses Vince DiCola-professional composer and producer. "Having a synth like this affords me the ability to get any color that I need for any project, from film scores to mellow piano/string projects, to new-age atmospheric kinds of things. The A6 Andromeda is perfect for all of those applications. When it comes to grit and aggressiveness, the A6 definitely takes the cake."
