Dixon

Bass and lead synthesizer

Small, but wild. Dixon is built for the low end and the hook on top: fat basses, squelchy acid lines and leads that cut — and an arpeggiator that turns one chord into a riff.

What it does

Oscillator with teeth

Wave, detune, fold, sync, FM and noise, plus a sub one or two octaves down. From round to brutal in one panel.

Filter that growls

Low-pass, notch, band-pass and high-pass with character, growl (raw or fat) and tight. Squelch on demand.

Two envelope characters

Nova or Mini: two ways for the envelopes to bite, with legato, glide and an env or gate VCA.

Arpeggiator

Up, Down, Up-Down, Played, Random, Octave, Acid and Stabs, at 1/4 to 1/32, over 1–3 octaves, with gate, swing, accent and latch.

Mono, Uni, Poly

A tight mono bass, a wide unison lead or chords — one switch.
