Endless Exploration

Mother-32® is an intuitive and expandable semi-modular synthesizer that adds raw analog sound, powerful sequencing and extensive interconnectivity to any creative, electronic or modular ecosystem.

>SEMI-MODULAR SIMPLICITY

No cables are required for swift, inspired music creation and exploration. When you’re ready, enter the vast sonic realms of modular synthesis.

The Mother-32 is a distinctive analog instrument that brings raw sound, step-sequencing and extensive interconnectivity to any electronic or modular ecosystem. This expansive live performance and production synthesizer is designed to provide experimental musicians and synthesists with a diverse array of creative tools to inspire new ideas, unique sound and endless sonic exploration.

>32-NOTE STEP SEQUENCER

Craft new ideas and perform in two unique sequencer modes with up to 64 on-board sequences for live performance.

Drive synchronized sound with Mother 32’s powerful step sequencer while utilizing its modular patchbay and assignable output to spawn a living, breathing organism with dynamic and modifiable sound processing. Patch multiple control and sound sources into Mother-32’s voltage controlled mixers and truly unlock the vast potential of this powerful instrument, or pull all of the patch cables, plug in a MIDI cable and simply drive your Mother-32 from any MIDI-equipped device.

>EXPONENTIALLY EXPANDABLE

Combine multiple Mother-32s to unlock new realms of sound, imagination and creativity. Push even farther with complete Eurorack integration.

The Mother-32 is secured in an extruded aluminum enclosure with wood sides, but can also easily be relocated to almost any Eurorack enclosure.
