The Kraft Synthesizer is a 3 oscillator synth with advanced spread/offset capabilities and dedicated filters for each oscillator.

At its center, the Filter Control section gives you global control over all the dedicated filters simultaneously. Stick with the Filter Control for your standard synth filter shaping, or dig deeper and use it control many filter settings at once.

Here is a a demo video of Kraft I did.



and a little demo mix..

Thanks for all the help Carly, and a big thanks to all the other beta testers on this project. It was a long journey.

Looks like, yes. But it has a lot modulation possibilities and you control more over a Combinator.

It is an IDT device.

I go by how often I reach for a combinator of how self contained a synth is and when doing my presets for this device I only created one (that I can remember out of about 150 presets) and that was to contain the output as it was sweeping a lot of frequencies.

The mod matrix's is very lush with options, even to be able to have LFO's controlling other LFO's.

I really like the sounds you can get out of this device....

Absolutely wonderful IDT-Synth! Excellent sounds and fun and intuitive GUI. Bought it, love it!

GO KRAFT!

Sounds really interesting. Some excellent sounds in the demo. Still a shame that IDT's can't have more comprehensive CV. But as has been said there are ways & means.

No midi pedal support??? Pretty much a deal breaker. There is with Aurora and Solaris. Am I missing something here?

I'm having trouble downloading the manual. The link is dead, in the propshop and even on Skrock's own site. Am I the only one experiencing this ?

Overall a pretty cool/interesting synth! I like the per-oscillator filter. That's quite a nice/useful feature. One thing I did notice is some clicking when scanning through the oscillator index on a handful of wavetables. I've also noticed this in eXpanse too. Almost like the tables aren't cross fading properly. Off the top of my head I think the organ one does it.

It yeah all in all a cool synth! Nice one!

Gotta agree. The per oscillator filter and mod matrix really makes it easy to cycle through modulation prototypes and get quick results! Been having success creating UKG Bass patches!

Cheers for the manual!

That is correct, the Exp Organ is an experimental wavetable. Try the pad patch PD Time Shift. :)

The manual doesn't seem to cover the envelopes and their decay curve feature. How does the curve control affect modulations/soundshaping ?

I made some simple illustrations

The global matrix at the bottom, which parameter does it affect ? e.g Osc1 ? or Filter ? There is an option to modulate the index, but I'm not sure which index will be affected.

The Global Modulation affects all oscillators. osc 1/2/3 pitch, osc 1/2/3 filter, osc 1/2/3 index etc. :puf_smile:

Nice Job on this Re , love it .
i browse the FSB , some pretty cool patchs . may be it'll be nice to proced like as the predator FSB if there's some signature patchs , add them again on bass , lead ,..folder , more helpfull to find a patch :) .

the Re is low cpu display and no need huge Ram to load the Re , we can stack many Kraft Re on our project .

the sound design is very fun on it ^^ , we can make some crazy stuff .
