EMISYNTH

EMISYNTH by Strix Instruments brings the character of eleven vintage Soviet children’s synthesizers into a playable instrument library. Recorded through their original speakers, these rare instruments retain the bright, piercing tones and individual imperfections shaped by decades of ageing. Rather than offering a polished modern synth sound, EMISYNTH preserves the uneven textures and analogue quirks that make each instrument distinctive. Switch between synthesizers and adjust their sound using the library’s built-in controls, whether you’re writing synthwave melodies, adding unusual keyboard parts to electronic tracks, or exploring nostalgic sounds beyond familiar retro presets. Convolution reverb draws on impulse responses captured in the Chernobyl exclusion zone, adding a distinctive sense of space. It’s a compelling choice for producers and composers seeking characterful vintage textures without tracking down ageing hardware.
