This is a string machine, this is a synthesizer, this is a bass synthesizer. And it can be all of them at the same time, so the original unit was announced as the “Analog Orchestra”
We also added: The Vintage Analog Choral Machine (as an alternative generator source for the Synthesizer part) and revealed the numerous hidden parameters of the vintage String Machine model.
The X-505 offers all the superimposing and tweaking capabilities of its glorious ancestor, including its precious balance between string registers and the precise balance for all inputs of the fourth (yes, 4) BBD Chorus block. Moreover: many hidden options are now available for customization on different X-505 panels for a wider sound palette. A luscious sounding analog phaser and vintage reverb are added to this palette.
