MNTRA Instruments has launched Vespera, the inaugural product in its Acoustic Synthesis line. Vespera is a groundbreaking tool for musicians, offering unparalleled capabilities for creating emotive, organic sounds.
Vespera is a transformed tube-driven modular synth that combines traditional and innovative elements. It leverages the raw power of tube-driven circuits and the natural resonance of physical objects. By re-amping heavily distorted modular synthesizer oscillations through various media, including different skinned drums and resonant instruments like the rare Indian Ezraj and Swedish Nyckelharpa, Vespera produces a unique symphony of textures.
The instrument is powered by MNDALA 2’s Animistic Synthesis, which allows Vespera to become an extension of the musician’s soul. It responds intuitively to the slightest touch, offering over 128 velocity possibilities. Its Sample Start Modulation (SSM) provides users with deep, reactive sonic variation that goes beyond the limitations of traditional hardware or virtual synths.
Vespera is available in two different editions, each tailored to meet the different needs of musicians. The Vespera Pro is designed for professionals and live performers, featuring extended sample ranges of 6 octaves and up to 13 rounds. It includes 140 presets and 83 sample maps, totaling 25,174 samples, offering a vast sonic playground for exploration.
The Vespera Standard is designed for enthusiasts and budding musicians. It delivers exceptional presets and sample maps optimized for 1 round-robin per note and a 4-octave range. With 140 presets and 83 sample maps totaling 4,625 samples, this edition provides a comprehensive introduction to the world of Vespera without sacrificing quality.
Vespera offers a universe of sonic possibilities. Its meticulously designed patches invite musicians to embark on a journey of exploration. From pulsating rhythms to ethereal atmospheres, from gritty textures to haunting drones, Vespera offers a limitless canvas for sonic innovation.
