Inspired by the legendary Ondes Martenot, this instrument uses a continuous pitch control and pressure sensitive volume control to create sweeping glissandos and vocal-like expression. It also can act as a MIDI or CV controller for your favorite synths, and has wave-shaping, harmonizer and preset capabilities.
