Developer Cyrille Henry shared news about important updates for the Nozoïd Kagouyar, a semi-modular polyphonic virtual analogue synthesizer..
Not only has the Kagouyar firmware received a major update, adding deeper synthesis options, but the price has been reduced to €849.
Here’s what’s new in Kagouyar version 2.0:
- 2× more VCO waveforms (via long click on waveform)
- 2× more LFO waveforms (via long click on waveform)
- 2× more audio effects (via long click on effect)
- Added A/D mode (selectable in place of the A/R envelope generator)
- Added DJ mode to the VCF2 filter (low/high on the same potentiometer)
- Added very slow mode for LFO 4, 5 and 6 (up to more than 2.5h period)
- Changed LFO SYNC modulation: frequency division now depends on LFO Fq range, division or multiplication goes from /128 to ×128
- Changed automodulation in LFO SYNC: modulation potentiometer allows dividing or multiplying LFO frequency by factors 1, 2, 3, 4, 8
- New LFO CLIP modulation functionality when no modulation is set: LFO waveform is clipped in various steps (like a bitcrusher)
- When “LOAD” switch is pressed, potentiometers are no longer updated to allow cut transitions
- Added option to use CV switch to control keyboard octave (LOAD + SAVE + KB13)
- MIDI note velocity now controls note amplitude
Pricing and Availability:
The Kagouyar is available now, priced at €849.
