Jomox ALPHA BASE MKII
Alpha Base MkII - The revival of the analog drum synthesizer
the Alpha Base MkII pushes the boundaries of sound design with even more powerful and intuitive features.
What's new:
Graphic OLED display: A clear and smooth interface for simplified navigation.
RGB LEDs in the sequencer: Dynamic and colorful visualization to enhance real-time control.
More controls: Additional buttons for quick access to key features like Last Step, Roll/Flam, Store Kit/Patt, Rec Para, and Rec Sample.
Analog panning circuit: Precise panning control on the hybrid sample channels.
Improved analog engine: Richer and more powerful sounds thanks to advanced audio processing.
Noise volume control: Fine-tune the noise level in hybrid channels for more precise sound textures.
More samples: An expanded range of samples for even more creative sound possibilities.
Independent headphone volume: Manage headphone volume separately from the main mix for optimal monitoring.
Technical specifications:
The Alpha Base MkII is an analog drum synthesizer with 11 instruments, offering endless possibilities through a combination of pure analog sounds and downloadable samples.
Jomox analog kick drum: A massive and authentic kick for powerful bass.
Jomox MBrane analog voice: Complex sounds for snares, percussion, bass, and toms, with a wide frequency range from 16Hz to 20kHz.
Sample-based instruments: 6 instruments with analog ADSR envelopes and multimode filters, offering unique sound flexibility, with optional metallic noise for even more varied tones.
Integrated FM synthesis: A 4-operator FM synthesizer with up to 6 voices, ideal for unique percussive and metallic sounds.
Integrated effects: Delay and reverb per instrument, insertable into the analog signal path for richer sound processing.
Multiple LFOs: Each instrument has an assignable LFO for modulating pitch, volume, or filter cutoff, with 64 different waveforms.
Internal memory of 500 samples at 16-bit/48kHz, expandable via an SD card to load your own samples.
Complete connectivity: USB, Midi In, Midi Out, and Midi Thru for easy integration with other equipment.
The Alpha Base MkII is the ideal solution for musicians and producers looking to push the boundaries of sound creation, combining analog and digital technology in a unique and high-performance format.

Analog Components:
Real analog Jomox kick drum: Delivers a powerful and authentic bass sound.
Jomox MBrane analog voice: Equipped with 2 coupleable F-OSC, creating complex analog sounds for snare, percussion, bass, and toms, covering a frequency range from 16Hz to 20kHz.
Sample-based Instruments:
2 sample-based instruments with analog VCA ADSR envelope and/or HH filter: Optional metallic noise can be mixed as an extra sound source. The HH filter features 2 poles (HP/LP/Res), each with separated parameters, peakable but not oscillating.
4 sample-based instruments with analog VCA ADSR envelope and/or resonating multimode filter (LP, HP, BP): These instruments allow for flexible sound shaping, and the multimode filter can function as a signal generator to create analog toms, sticks, etc. Optional metallic noise can also be added as a sound source.
2 sample-based instruments with external sampling input: Provides pure digital playback capabilities.
FM Synthesizer:
1 FM Synth: With 4 operators and up to 6 voices, specifically designed for creating unique percussive sounds.
Effects:
Delay and reverb per instrument: Both effects are insertable into the analog signal path for Closed HiHat, Open HiHat, Clap, Rim, and Ride instruments.
LFOs:
Per instrument LFO: Each instrument has an LFO (MBrane features 2 LFOs) with 64 waveforms, assignable to pitch, VCA, or filter cutoff.
