Analogue Solutions $28,000 Maximus Megasynth Sold Out – But They’re Making More
British boutique electronic instruments company Analogue Solutions let us know that they’ve sold out of the first batch of their $28,000 Maximus AS300 megasynth – but they’re making more.
When Analogue Solutions announced the Maximus a few months ago, creator Tom Carpenter described it as new “mega-polysynth” with a design ethos “from the dawn of analog synths.”
“When you think of polysynths,” says Carpenter, “you think of flat synths, with one set of controls that control all voices equally.
“By giving Maximus independent controls for every voice, you have more freedom to create unique styles of poly sounds impossible on traditional polysynths, whether they are hardware or software. You can dial up ‘traditional’ poly sounds (pads etc) or have something unimaginable different,” notes Carpenter. “Because you can never dial up each voice completely identically, standard polys pads will sounds superbly vintage.”
The Maximus AS300 is available to pre-order, with the following pricing:
- AS300 main unit £22500 (about $28,354).
- AS400 optional keyboard £1900 (about $2,394).
excluding crate, shipping and tax (all if applicable).
