The Dave Smith Instruments Mopho x4 is a 4-voice polyphonic synthesizer based on the legendary Mopho and Tetra synthesisers.
The Mopho x4 by Dave Smith Instruments boasts the same voice architecture of its predecessor but with 4-voice polyphony, delivering earth shattering basses, powerful and rich leads, and lush, ethereal pads that have made Dave Smith Instruments so popular throughout the world.
The elegantly designed Mopho x contains four voices, each with two analogue oscillators, two sub oscillators and the legendary Curtis Low-pass filter with a choice of 2- or 4-pole filters. In addition the Mopho x4 provides no less than three 5-stage envelopes (ADHSR), four LFOs, a 16x4 step sequencer and an arpeggiator, all in one well-proportioned package. What’s more the Mopho x4 is a dream come true for many synthesists looking to create otherworldly sounds thanks to 20 modulation sources and almost 50 destinations, FM filtering and a feedback path for 100 per cent analogue sonic mayhem.
Just like the Tetra and the Mopho, The Dave Smith Mopho x4 has been conceived with playability and intuitiveness in mind and as such all parameters are fully programmable and editable directly from the front panel, with controls clearly laid out throughout offering maximum tweakability. To top it all off, the Mopho comes with a 44-note velocity-sensitive, semi-weighted keyboard with aftertouch and freely-assignable, robust Pitch and Mod wheels.
Connect the Dave Smith Mopho x4 to other Dave Smith Instruments synthesisers such as a Prophet ‘08, a MoPho, or even up to three Tetras using Dave Smith’s proprietary Poly Chain and expand your setup to as many as 16-voice polyphonic super synths!
