The Body Synths Metal Fetishist Percussion Synthesizer is a revolutionary instrument that pushes the boundaries of rhythmic exploration and percussive sound design. Equipped with a loopable randomness sequencer and a versatile CV interface, it invites musicians to delve into new sonic territories. With the ability to synthesize punchy kicks, harsh noise, fuzzy drones, digital glitches, and plucky microtonal melodies, the Metal Fetishist opens up a world of percussive possibilities.
At its core, it boasts an unapologetically digital sound engine. It features a single oscillator paired with a white noise source, a resonant multi-mode filter, and a powerful digital distortion section complete with downsampling and overdrive capabilities. This combination allows for the creation of complex and unique sounds that are essential for modern music production.
One of the standout features of the Metal Fetishist is its random sequencing with control. It houses two randomness generators that manage trigger probability and step modulation, affecting parameters such as pitch, cutoff, or an internal mixer that blends noise or external audio sources. The STEPS knob is a game-changer, enabling users to lock randomness into repeatable sequences of 2, 4, 8, 10, 16, or 32 steps. This provides both spontaneity and structure, perfect for crafting dynamic rhythmic patterns.
Adding to its versatility, it includes an external audio input, transforming it into a powerful effects processor. Musicians can process external sounds through its filter, distortion, and sequencer, making it possible to connect a drone instrument and sculpt unique rhythms using its sound. This feature enhances creative possibilities, allowing for innovative sound manipulation and integration with other gear.
The Metal Fetishist is more than just an instrument; it’s a platform for rhythmic discovery and percussive innovation. Its advanced features and intuitive design make it an indispensable tool for musicians and sound designers aiming to expand their sonic horizons and create cutting-edge music.
