UDO Audio Super Gemini 20-Voice Bi-Timbral Keyboard Synthesizer
UDO Audio Super Gemini is a 20-voice polyphonic, bi-timbral analog-hybrid powerhouse. Employing an unprecedented dual-layer design, Super Gemini gives you immediate, comprehensive control over both timbral layers, allowing you to tweak, mold and bend your performances with unparalleled sonic possibilities.
Stacked with up to 20 voices of polyphony, Super Gemini boasts an immensely powerful sound engine where a performance isn't just a single sound but an entire spectrum of sonic opportunity in which voices and timbral layers can be split, dualled, sequenced all at the touch of a single control. Spectrally rich digital hardware oscillators of unique construction, decorated with a plethora of expansive tonal features such as wave morphing, cross/ring modulation, bi-directional sync and more, all fed into an all-analog signal path inspired by classic vintage instruments. The result is a core sound that is rich, evolving, engaging and addictive.
Matching sonic innovation with tactility, Super Gemini is equipped with a 61-note semi-weighted keybed with polyphonic aftertouch, in addition to a custom-engineered ribbon sensor for individual note articulation and a gestural approach to exploring sound. With 256 performance and patch slots, 64 interchangeable waveforms and 16 sequences, you can safely store and edit your sounds without concern.
As the second synth in the 'Super' series, Super Gemini represents a quantum leap in UDO's technology, building on the acclaimed rich sound pioneered by George Hearn and Super 6. Adopting a true stereo binaural signal path with dual FPGAs and twin effects processors, Super Gemini will take you on an adventure of spectral dynamics, of glittering frequency and shattering subharmonics, of comfort and discord, expectations and surprises.

Inspired by the classics, built for today
Super Gemini fuses a state-of-the-art FPGA digital architecture with archetypal voltage-controlled synthesizer technology. This harmonious marriage of old and new encompasses all that is great from the era of classic analog polyphonic synthesizers, yet in an unparalleled form factor which is immensely powerful, flexible and reliable.
Premium build quality
Forged entirely from aluminum and steel, Super Gemini is undeniably robust. Equipped with an array of superior quality mechanical controls, Super Gemini is engineered for reliability and service. As a loyal workmate and companion, this instrument is designed to stand the test of time.
Expression
Featuring a custom-engineered ribbon controller and a 61-note semi-weighted keyboard with polyphonic aftertouch, Super Gemini will enhance your musicianship from the first touch, teasing out new ways and gestures for you to explore and express your sound.
Binaural synthesis
Employing a true stereo signal path, Super Gemini twins its 20 voices to form 10 'super voices.' As a result, the left and right channels and each ear are assigned a complete synthesizer voice. Not only does this allow for the warm analog tone that UDO is championing, it also empowers you to create extremely dynamic spatial sounds.
