Meet Cascadia

A massive semi-modular system in a small case with the footprint of a laptop. Cascadia has MIDI in/out/thru/USB, Eurorack compatible signal levels and pro-level audio I/O to interface with the rest of your studio or get your studio started. Check it out

Modern Analog Architecture

Cascadia is packed with a mix of classic East and West Coast synthesizer blocks. Normalized connections let you get straight to the sounds inside. Or, let your imagination run wild and patch any of the modules together however you choose. Make small tweaks to the architecture, or  re-route the entire synth to your liking—the choice is yours!

Two Precision Analog VCOs 

• VCO A is Thru-zero FM-ready with a dedicated Index VCA, Sub Oscillator, PWM and Soft/hard sync.
• VCO B is a combo VCO/LFO with 4 simultaneous outputs

Six Channel Waveform Mixer

• Two patchable (normalled) inputs
• Noise generator with multiple algorithms.
• Optional asymmetric soft clipping on the mix output.

Liquid-Sounding, Cascaded 4-Pole Multimode Filter

• Eight Modes: LP1, LP2, LP4, BP2, BP4, HP4, NT2, Phazor.
• Additional dedicated outputs for LP4 and HP4.
• Input Level Knob for fine control of filter input and resonance balance and added drive.
• Multiple FM inputs and a QM input, all with attenuators.

Wavefolder Circuit

• West Coast-style parallel wavefolder.
• Normalled into the auxiliary input on the VCA in parallel with the filter.

Dual Digital Envelopes

• ENV A is a versatile east coast style ADSR / AHDSR envelope generator with a hold function and dynamic level/time control. Normalled to the VCA to instantly shape your sound.
• ENV B is a complex, multimode function generator with a West Coast style AR/ASR/Cycling AR, a beat syncable LFO, Burst generator modes, and the Entropic Sequence Generator (added in 1.3). Normalled to the filter for instant FM without patching.

VCA A and Output Path

• VCA A is a linear VCA with auxiliary input.
• Global Output Mixer with overdrive circuit and bypassable asymmetric soft clipping.

Expansive Utilities Sections

Cascadia also features a whole host of utilities for getting the most out of your patches.

The Utility Row

• Sample and hold circuit with white noise normalled to the input.
• Slew/Envelope follower.
• Attenuverter/Mixer with multiple outputs.
• Triple triangle LFO with rate control, rate input and divided outputs.
• Triple buffered multiple.
• Precision adder.
• Signal inverter.
• Bi-polar > Unity level shifter.
• Expression level control for modulation the TRS expression input on an FX pedal.
• Ring Modulator.
• VCA B / LPF (LPG) — Auxiliary VCA and 4-Pole Diode Ladder VCF combination for additional dynamics.

The Top Row

• Easy to access Pitch, Gate, and Velocity CV inputs.
• Pedal Send and Return FX loop with Wet/Dry control, phase inverter and Line/Pedal level switches.
• Output Mixer with Overdrive.
• Eurorack Level Main output with level control for interfacing with other modular gear.
