The DCS II by Strider Systems employs advanced digital technology to bring you:

• Advanced digital control matrix
• An astounding variety of functions unmatched in any other comparable synthesizer
• Complete memory of all functions
• Single button recall of all programs
• Remarkably, it costs less than any other synthesizer that even comes close to its capabilities.

First, notice the differences you see. No Knobs. No sliders. Just a compact instrument with a clean, perfectly arranged control panel of push buttons. These buttons put your fingertips in touch with an amazing variety of functions. The more you know about synthesizers, the more amazed you'll be with the versatility of the DCS II.

Here is a brief look at the most important features of the DCS II:

• Two polyphonic voices which can drive up to eight notes each, commanding a separate synthesizer module on each note.
• Each separate synthesizer module has three oscillators with reliable waveforms and modes such as ring, FM, noise source, multi-mode state variable filter, separate ADSR and modulation for oscillator, VCA and filter sections.
• Single button, instant access to 48 voice patches. Sixteen are permanent presets, and 32 are variable voice patches.
• A 356 note memory sequencer which drives one synthesizer module and has 16 memory banks.
• A totally programmable joystick that can vary and set or just vary almost any combination of functions in real time.
• Single and/or multitrigger keyboard that will drive voice 1 only, voice 2 only, voice 1 & 2 high/low split at middle C, and a unison mode.
• Unlimited storage of memory on cassettes with built in interface.
