ASM Diosynth – Advanced Wind Synthesizer with Woodwind Feel
The ASM Diosynth blends the familiar tactile feel of a woodwind instrument with cutting-edge synthesis. With moving keys, a breath sensor, reed and bite controls, gyroscope/motion input, joystick/modulation pads and a powerful twin-engine sound system, the Diosynth gives wind players unprecedented expressive flexibility—available at Soundium.
Key Features
-
Woodwind keywork & fingering modes: Real moving keys (not flat sensors), with multiple fingering modes including Sax, Flute, Recorder and Trumpet to ease the transition from acoustic wind instruments.
-
Breath and bite sensors: Responsive reed sensor and breath sensor capture expressive dynamics and control modulation in real time.
-
Motion & joystick performance controls: X/Y joystick for modulation/pitch bend, two pressure pads, three assignable buttons plus built-in gyro sensor to convert physical movement into sound modulation.
-
Dual-engine synthesis & sample playback: Two parts that can be layered or split, combining Hydrasynth® WaveScan oscillators + multi-sample instrument playback (128 acoustic sample sets plus hybrid sounds) for deep sonic capability.
-
High-end sound engine: Includes 2 WaveScan oscillators (219 waveforms), noise generator, multi-sample oscillator, 16-mode Hydrasynth filters, 4-band EQ, insert effects, 5 LFOs (with step sequencer mode), 5 envelopes (with looping), and many player controls.
-
Connectivity & power options: Built-in speaker, ¼″ TRS output, USB-C 2-in/2-out audio/MIDI, Bluetooth audio/MIDI, USB or 2× 18650 Li-Ion batteries (not included) for portable play.
-
Software editor & library: Mac/PC patch editor and manager app, iOS/Android set-list manager, 384 onboard patches (stores up to 768) with sample upload capability.
Customer Benefits
The ASM Diosynth lets wind players retain familiar ergonomics and fingerings while unlocking the sonic breadth of modern synthesis. Breath, motion, bite and joystick controls give real-time tactile modulation and expression—so you can move fluidly from jazz sax to electronic lead, sample orchestral flutes or create entirely new hybrid textures. With onboard speakers, USB/MIDI connectivity and a rich sound engine, it’s built for studio, stage and mobile performance—available at Soundium.
