For some, the idea behind having a rack or desktop unit you can put anywhere is that it is 'out of the way,' which is fine until you want to start doing some sound editing or adjusting it in real time – then you want a way to play it. Hydrasynth Desktop has 24 polyphonic pressure-sensitive pads that capably allow you to play the synth.

With 32 user-definable modulation routings, you will have plenty of ways to use the 29 modulation sources and 155 modulation destinations. Almost everything in the synth engine can be a modulation destination, including the effects and arpeggiator. The mod matrix points themselves can also become modulation destinations. Modulation sources and destinations include the CV Mod In \u0026amp; Out jacks as well as MIDI CCs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n     \n      \u003cdiv class=\"flexy-image-area hide-this hide-mobile\"\u003e\n        \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/files.kraftmusic.com\/media\/wysiwyg\/inline_images\/hydrasynth-deluxe\/modulation-matrix.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e       \n      \u003c\/div\u003e     \n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"flexy-row\"\u003e\n\t\u003cdiv class=\"flexy-image-area hide-this\"\u003e\n\t\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/files.kraftmusic.com\/media\/wysiwyg\/inline_images\/hydrasynth-deluxe\/arpeggiator.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\n\t\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n \t\u003cdiv class=\"flexy-text-area left-padding\"\u003e\n     \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArpeggiator\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Multi mode, the upper and lower parts can have their own separate arpeggiator settings. The arpeggiator allows for standard note arpeggiations but also has a phrase arpeggio built in. Parameters like Ratchet and Chance will generate rhythmic patterns with some randomness to add life and spontaneity to your performance. You can also modulate most of the parameters in the arpeggiator, so imagine using LFOs, envelopes, polyphonic aftertouch or the ribbon controller to modify your arpeggios in real time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e    \n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"flexy-row\"\u003e   \n     \u003cdiv class=\"flexy-image-area hide-this hide-m2 show-mobile\"\u003e\n        \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/files.kraftmusic.com\/media\/wysiwyg\/inline_images\/hydrasynth-deluxe\/cv-gate-midi-usb.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e       \n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n \n      \u003cdiv class=\"flexy-text-area right-padding\"\u003e\n           \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCV\/gate, MIDI, USB\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHydrasynth has standard MIDI and USB\/MIDI interfaces but also goes deeper to allow the use of CV\/gate interfaces for connecting to the modular world.

The modulation inputs and outputs allow for modulation from DC voltage to full audio rate, expanding your modulation capabilities.
