Unreal synth. The sounds that come out of this are so big. It is a must buy. I didn’t need 12 voices.

Awesome piece of hardware. Feels pretty well built, and while it might not withstand WW3 it looks like it will handle studio use just fine. Intuitive editing and most importantly, it sounds great.

I actually sold my deepmind 12D for this and I don’t really miss it. Whilst the 12 has 12 voices and in some rare circumstances it is really great to have that many voices, I prefer having a keyboard and wheels. Build quality is excellent, sound is phenomenal, and having onboard excellent quality effects makes this a powerhouse synth. I feel since it’s primarily a square wave synth, it’s strength lies in pads, but it still produces some healthy bass, arps, and the occasional lead. It’s mod matrix also allows for some interesting generative fun as well.

True Analog 6-Voice Polyphonic Synthesizer with 4 FX Engines, 2 OSCs and LFOs per Voice, 3 ADSR Generators, 8-Channel Modulation Matrix, 32-Step Control Sequencer and Tablet Remote Control. With the creation of DEEPMIND 6, the ultimate true analog, 6-voice polyphonic synthesizer is finally a reality. DEEPMIND 6 allows you to conjure up virtually any sound you can imagine with unparalleled finesse and ease.
Thanks to its 4 FX engines, dual analog OSCs and LFOs per voice, 3 ADSR Generators, 8-Channel Modulation Matrix and onboard 32-Step Control Sequencer, the DEEPMIND 6 gives you complete control over your soundscape. Plus, DEEPMIND 6 features comprehensive remote control via iPad/PC/Mac and selected Android Apps over USB or MIDI - for a custom-tailored workflow that lets your creative spirit soar to new heights.
Classic Polyphonic Synthesizer
The inspired synthesizer tracks laid down in the 1970s and '80s are etched in the annals of progressive rock and pop music forever, making them truly classic in every sense of the word. DEEPMIND 6's pure analog signal path with legendary IR3109-style VCFs, stereo VCAs and 12-voice polyphony lets you recreate all that magic or design the powerful, original sounds that just might make you a legend in your own right.
The FX Racks
We also included 4 simultaneous FX engines with over 33 world-class TC ELECTRONIC, MIDAS and KLARK TEKNIK algorithms - including Reverb, Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Delay, Multiband Distortion and many more. Custom-designed and physically modeled after some of the most iconic and sought-after processors, DEEPMIND 6's FX were essentially "rebuilt" in the digital domain - and put right at your fingertips. All effects run inside the low-latency environment of the DEEPMIND 6, ensuring flawless performance and flexible routing.
TC ELECTRONIC is synonymous with some of the best sounding reverbs found anywhere. The TC DEEP REVERB provides 9 iconic reverb modes you know and love in tone effect that sounds insanely good. It's amazing that just 4 controls (Decay, Tone and PreDelay) provide such a wide range of tonal options - bright and springy, warm and bouncy or gigantic dark reflections. All that - and then some!
The Lexicon 480L has been recognized as the gold standard of digital reverb and we have included five of the finest reverb models: HALL, AMBIENT, RICH PLATE, ROOM and RICH CHAMBER. These models precisely capture all nuances based on our "True Physical Modeling" and our algorithms even incorporate the unit's AD/DA gain stepping converters - nailing the entire analog and digital circuit paths, right down to the last detail (Inspired by Lexicon 480L).
Based on the legendary EMT250, the VINTAGE REVERB delivers a shimmering, bright reverb that won't drown out or overpower your live/recorded tracks. Use the VINTAGE REVERB to sweeten vocals and snare drums without sacrificing clarity (Inspired by EMT250 Plate Reverb). PLATE REVERB emulates the characteristics of a plate reverb chamber with control over the damping pad, modulation depth and speed and crossover. PLATE REVERB will give your tracks the sound heard on countless hit records since the late 1950s (Inspired by Lexicon PCM70).
Our GATED REVERB recreates the sound achieved by combining a reverb with a noise gate and is especially effective for a 1980s-style snare sound or to boost the presence of a kick drum (Inspired by Lexicon 300/480L). REVERSE REVERB puts the reverb tail in front of the sound source, creating a swelling crescendo that adds an ethereal quality to vocal and snare tracks (Inspired by Lexicon 300/480L). Taking up only one FX slot, the CHORUS & CHAMBER effect combines the shimmer and doubling characteristics of a studio-grade chorus with the sweet sound of a traditional chamber reverb (Inspired by Lexicon PCM70).
Here we combine DELAY & CHAMBER, so that a single device can provide a variety of delay settings, plus add just the right type and amount of reverb to the selected signal (Inspired by Lexicon PCM70). FLANGER CHAMBER combines the mind-bending, filter-sweeping effect of a state-of-the-art flanger with the elegant sweetening of a traditional chamber reverb - all in one FX slot (Inspired by Lexicon PCM70). The 4 BAND EQ is a sweep parametric equalizer and is taken directly from the MIDAS PRO X Live Digital Console. The bands are low, low mid, high mid and high, with the mid bands using a Q Factor adjustment to custom-tailor the sound. Any combination of the four bands may be used simultaneously.
STEREO ENHANCER lets you emphasize the Bass, Midrange and Hi output at selectable frequencies, for maximum punch, clarity and detail - without turning up the overall volume (Inspired by SPL Vitalizer). The Fairchild 670 tube compressor not only achieves record bids in high-end vintage gear auctions, it also delivers some of the finest colorations in compressor history. Two small trim VR's preset the control side chain action, a six-step switch determines the timing and the two large Input and Threshold knobs adjust the levels. Our FAIR COMPRESSOR model is true to the original signal path and conveniently provides models for dual, stereo-linked or mono and stereo operation (Inspired by Fairchild 670).
