The
Bree6 is a polyphonic analog synthesizer that features a fully analog
sound
generation. It offers six voices of polyphony, each
equipped with a single voltagecontrolled oscillator (VCO), and a sub
oscillator. The signal path includes a mixer, a 4-pole low-pass
voltage-controlled ladder filter (VCF), and a voltage-controlled
amplifier (VCA). The control signals are digitally
generated, incorporating one low-frequency
oscillator (LFO) and
two ADSR-type envelope generators. Additionally, the Bree6
integrates
an effects processor with chorus and delay.
No Menu Diving
The
Bree6 interface is engineered for straightforward and intuitive use,
featuring one
knob per function and ensuring ease of access to
its robust features, including MIDI
connections, USB, balanced
stereo audio outputs, headphone output, and CV inputs.
Signal
Path
The signal path in the Bree6 is entirely analog, including
a single VCO per voice, a sub
oscillator, a mixer, a 4-pole
low-pass ladder VCF, and a VCA. The control voltages are
digitally
generated, comprising one LFO and two ADSR-type envelope generators.
It
also features a stereo digital effects processor with Delay
and Chorus.
Oscillator
The Bree6 features a single VCO plus
a sub oscillator per voice. The oscillator includes
sawtooth and
pulse waveforms, with pulse width modulation control that can
be
modulated by the LFO. The oscillator tuning can be adjusted,
and modulation can be
applied from the LFO. The sub oscillator
generates a square wave one octave below the
main oscillator.
Filter
The Bree6’s filter is a 4-pole ladder-type low-pass filter with resonance control. It can
be modulated by EG1, with velocity affecting the modulation depth, and can also be
modulated by the LFO. It can also be controlled by the modulation wheel and
aftertouch.
Chorus and Delay
The synthesizer offers a stereo ensemble type chorus effect. It simulates a string or
vocal ensemble using multiple delay lines modulated by their dedicated LFOs.
The stereo delay can reach a maximum delay time of up to 1 second.
LFO
The Bree6 contains one LFO with selectable waveforms (triangle, ramp up, ramp down,
square, and random with sample and hold). The LFO’s frequency can be set from 0.1Hz
to 100Hz, and modulation can be applied to the VCO, VCF, and VCA.
Envelope Generators
There are two ADSR-type envelope generators in the Bree6, designed for precise control
over the dynamics of both the filter and the amplifier.
