Extraordinary and beautifully hand-built with a level of attention to detail rarely seen these days. So much more than an (incredible) filter bank: this thing compresses, distorts, amplifies, crushes, expands and processes, or just push it into feedback and it's a synth.

Not much new gear excites us as much as vintage, but this is off the scale. What a piece of kit! We tried a stack of three of them at Synthfest and it was love at first touch/sound.
Italy’s Euterpe Synth have produced a truly wonderful thing here. This is the second version of their filterbank, built to the highest quality with vintage components, no corners cut and packed with clever ideas. Add to that that the people behind it are lovely, passionate audio lovers and we had to get involved. This feels (and sounds) like it was made in the glory days of early radiophonic gear: everything is chunky and high vintage quality.
Its functions are as follows, but this entirely fails to capture that the sum of being able to do all these things AT THE SAME TIME is so much greater than having each function in a separate box. You can:
As you will see there are two prices for two different options. The “Vintage” one is the same circuit but with a large number of components replaced with scarce NOS vintage parts for a unit that is truly as the designers originally envisaged it. This also makes your Vertice unique of course with a character like no other (yes reader, that is the option we went for!).
More info, an in-depth review and demos to come. But if you know us and what we like then don’t sleep on this. They are built to order with a few options for customisation, and they definitely only have capacity to produce a very limited number per year.
Brand new.

We can't stop here, this is bat country! Our next auction (November 22nd) features some head-turning, show-stopping synths, however we also wanted to put the spotlight...
