---//ABOUT//---

The new Inter Continental Capacitive Ballistic Synth, or IC2BS for short, is a portable, capacitive touch, digital synth.

The keyboard is one octave and the capacitive touch elements were designed to reduce accidental key pressings and self calibrate on every startup for the best response.

It's capable or controlling other devices through Gate and CV (1V/Octave), as well as being controlled through Gate and CV (1V/Octave) from other devices.

The IC2BS is powered by a single 18650 Li-ion cell and is charged through a USB-C port.

It includes all the basic controls expected to be found in a synth, as well as a built in Delay to give the sound a richer texture.

It also includes two hand crafted wood panels made out of mahogany.

Notable Reviews

DarthPepsi Nov 3, 2022: Yes it is fun looking, but it is at best a steam-punk novelty item... The CV functionality is terrible, the quality is like.. 10bit at best... the internal clock being used misses some notes if they are dotted and misses all of them if the tempo is too fast coming from a gate source. The pitch range is the worst part.. if it could reach 1 octave higher without using filtering it would have even some utility in professional recording... Still cool looking though..
