The Macchiato Mini-Synth is a versatile 8-bit digital synthesizer capable of creating a vast array of
unique sounds. The Macchiato is great at creating rich and complex soundscapes, yet it is easy enough
to use that kids can start creating music instantly. Capable of 2-note polyphony, the Macchiato is great
for textured pads or beautiful flowing dyadic harmonies. It is perfect for bass synth lines, rhythmic and
glitchy pulses, or smooth lead synth parts. The Macchiato has a built-in one-octave capacitive touch
keyboard (with 4-octave shift), but also has a MIDI IN port for expanded controllability. The 1/8”
(3.5mm) line-out jack is suitable for headphones, powered speakers, or recording directly to your
computer’s line-in jack. There are 9 knobs on top of the instrument which give the user a wide spectrum
of control.
