From subtle murmurs to wild screams—explore vast sonic territories.
The Banshee Reach is a highly versatile VCO blending analog warmth with digital precision. Centered around a triangle core analog oscillator with through-zero frequency and phase modulation, it delivers classic analog waveforms alongside a unique vari output—a continuously variable crossfade of waveforms combined with a sub-octave generator.
Designed with performance in mind, the Banshee Reach features digital frequency locking and octave transposition, turning its coarse control into an octave switch. Its Disorder mode transforms the oscillator into a versatile noise source, perfect for experimental textures. Additional features include LFO mode, pulse width modulation (PWM), hard and soft sync, and precision rubber-injected knobs.
Compact yet powerful, the Banshee Reach is an ideal oscillator for both West Coast and East Coast synthesis styles, making it a true all-rounder in any modular setup.
