Monotron Duo: Features

The ribbon controller keyboard has a four-octave range and a pitch you can control aggressively and dramatically. In other words, you can trigger it to create some really impressive sounds. If you’re a DJ and would like to add an extra touch to your performance, you won’t go wrong with the Monotron Duo. The filtering mounted on it comes from the circuitry of the VCF classic MS-10 and MS-20. In consequence, it’s a powerful filter that applies dramatic and exciting tonal changes that really stand out. Moreover, the X-MOD comes from the Mono/Poly classic synth. Particularly, it introduces a mild or razor-sharp edge to the sound of this device, which makes it a superspecial piece of equipment.

Additionally, you can patch the filter by connecting any audio source into the AUX jack input directly. Do so before the analog and delay circuit to add tone bending and delay effects on your external sources. Furthermore, the Monotron Duo has a little integrated speaker in its body to share the sound with your friends. Also, it has a headphone output jack that you can use for practicing or to connect to an amp or other devices. If you’re looking for more capabilities and even more extreme sounds than the Monotron Delay offers, then the Monotron Duo is a great choice.
