Distropolis Goods Introduces Prismatic Spray II ‘Bytebeat Adventure Synth’
Distropolis Goods has introduced the Prismatic Spray II ‘bytebeat adventure synth’, an updated version of their experimental desktop synthesizer.
Here’s what’s been updated from version one:
- Dual bytebeat engines, configurable independently
- DETUNE knob for slight variations in pitch
- PAN a bytebeat incantation between the left and right engines
- GLIDE from pitch to pitch with adjustable rate
- PITCH SCALING attempts to keep bytebeat “tempo” consistent while changing PITCH
- Responds to MIDI Pitch Bend
- Multiple on-device visualizations viewable in color or grayscale
- Much faster display refresh rate for more fluid visualizations
- Web-serial display of visualizations to compatible desktop browsers (Chrome, Edge…)
- Digitally controlled analog filter – recallable settings and controllable via MIDI
- 60+ bytebeat incantations
- 60 save slots
- USB-C for power/MIDI
- PITCH is now represented in chromatic scale
- Bytebeat incantations now display the original creator (or my best guess)
- Updated and revised, illustrated printed user manual
The Distropolis Goods Prismatic Spray II is available now for $275.
