Description
The UB-Xa D is a unique synthesizer that builds upon the successes of legendary predecessors. Its legacy has inspired countless timeless hits from renowned artists such as Rush's Geddy Lee, The Police, and Prince, to name a few. With its 8-channel modulation matrix, the UB-Xa D offers unmatched flexibility and expands its sonic capabilities. Utilizing 26 rotary controls and various other functions, this instrument allows for direct manipulation of VCOs, LFOs, ADSR generators, and VCAs, resulting in endless soundscapes. And with its MIDI implementation, the UB-Xa D can easily be paired with a controller to further enhance its capabilities.
Features
