1010MUSIC INTRODUCES THE LEMONDROP AND FIREBALL NANOBOXES

Instruments that specialize in different types of synthesis are tucked away in brightly colored cases that can be completely customized. There are some design similarities between the two instruments, including a relatively large touchscreen, two knobs and four buttons to control the action, a colorful enclosure, as well as input and output (I/O) to integrate into your set-up.

Lemondrop Granular Synth

Sound sources for the Lemondrop include two granular engines and an oscillator, which work together to create a unique sound. In addition, there are two multi-mode filters and six onboard effects – flanger, distortion, chorus, phaser, delay, and reverb – to assist you in creating your own unique sound. Two multi-wave LFOs, two envelope generators, a mod sequencer, and two envelope generators are all found in the modulation section.

Fireball Wavetable Synth

The Fireball is a wavetable synthesizer that features two multi-mode filters, as well as the same effects and modulation capabilities as its citrusy counterpart, the Citrus Juice. Because of the Fireball’s built-in MIDI ports, it appears that it can be easily integrated into setups that use an external keyboard to play notes and control the device’s parameters.

Additional features and I/O

Both the Lemondrop and Fireball come pre-loaded with more than 100 presets and.wav files to get you up and running quickly and easily. In terms of connectivity, Mini-TRS is used for MIDI In and Out, Clock In, Line In and Line Out, and Line In and Line Out. Each device also includes an SD card, a USB-C to USB-A cable, and a MIDI adaptor (3.5 TRS to 5-pin), all of which are standard accessories.

Pricing and availability

A launch video for 1010music‘s new Nanobox instruments will be released later today, which you can watch in its entirety below. A release date has not yet been announced for either instrument, which is priced at 449€ each.
