Sequential Trigon 6 Desktop Analog Synthesizer

The Sequential Trigon-6 is a high-powered module analog synthesizer offering three oscillators and a ladder filter specifically designed for synth players who need balanced and powerful tones. With its comprehensive panel of knobs and sliders, you can take complete control over your sound and generate a variety of tones with ease. Make your beats stand out and bring your music to life with this powerful synth that provides superior sound design for optimal sound production. Get the power of three oscillators and a ladder filter you need with the Sequential Trigon-6 Desktop Synth.

The Sequential Trigon-6 desktop module delivers the same massive sound and hands-on timbre shaping control as the Trigon-6 Keyboard. It features the same pure analog signal path with discrete oscillators and filters, and the same high-quality digital effects. It also has the same intuitive layout with full-sized knobs and switches that make it quick and easy to create new sounds.

The Trigon-6 module sounds huge — just like the keyboard, because it is the same six voice polyphonic instrument, just in a smaller form factor. And if you want even more polyphony, you can use the poly chain feature to link any two Trigon-6s for a stunning twelve-voice synth!

Sequential Trigon 6 Desktop Analog Synthesizer Features

• A Sound That is Bold and Familiar; The Trigon-6 is Sequential’s polyphonic take on the classic, thick and creamy, 3-oscillator-plus-ladder-filter analog sound that defined the dawn of the synth era. It’s a sound that bridges genres and styles — now refined and redefined with Sequential’s own modern imprint.
• All-New Filter and Oscillator Design; At the heart of the Trigon-6 sound are three newly designed voltage-controlled oscillators (with triangle, saw, and pulse waves) and an enhanced version of the ladder filter that Sequential created for its Pro 3 mono synth. The switchable 2/4 pole resonant filter design has dedicated drive and feedback controls that make it effortless to go from silky and smooth to bold and crunchy with a simple knob turn.
• Rounding Out the Picture; Naturally, the Trigon-6 has the full complement of Sequential’s “must-have” sound-sculpting features including super snappy envelopes, a syncable LFO with multiple waveforms and destinations, a polyphonic step sequencer, and an arpeggiator. Best of all, the knob-per-function front panel of the Trigon-6 puts these controls at your fingertips. And the ready-made palette of 500 factory and 500 user presets provides a wide range of basses, leads, and pads to jump start any project.
• Dual Effects; The dual effects section provides studio-quality reverbs, delays (standard and BBD), chorus, flanger, phaser, and ring modulator. The independent stereo distortion effect adds on-demand aggression and is 100% analog.
• Adjustable Vintage Character; Finally, to give even more classic organic warmth to an already classic synth, there’s the Vintage Knob, which adds voice-to-voice variations in calibration and component behavior. Vintage response is adjustable from subtle to extreme to emulate the stability of a perfect modern instrument or a time-worn relic.
• Portable and Powerful; With all that Trigon-6 has to offer, it’s amazing that this analog beast is packed into a desktop module light enough to carry in a backpack. And with Trigon’s new MPE compatibility, this instrument is more playable and nuanced than ever before. It is the perfect choice for the project studio or the gigging musician who wants the ultimate Sequential synthesis experience.

Originally launched in 2002 as Dave Smith Instruments, Sequential was founded by legendary electronic instrument designer Dave Smith. His many accomplishments included the creation of the Prophet-5 — the world’s first fully programmable polyphonic synthesizer — and his legacy as the primary driving force behind MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface). Now helmed by CEO David Gibbons, an audio and music industry veteran, Sequential creates innovative synthesizers with the highest level of craftsmanship and care for discerning musicians around the world.
