The Korena take

ASM’s Leviasynth Desktop is a 16-voice digital/analog hybrid synthesizer built around eight oscillators per voice and more than 140 preset algorithms, with space to create custom routing structures. Sixteen Polytouch pads provide polyphonic aftertouch in place of a conventional keyboard. A digital filter section with 18 models feeds an analog 4-pole low-pass filter with pre-drive, while 13 DAHDSR envelopes, five LFOs, and a 32-slot modulation matrix support detailed patch movement. Its three-track sequencer also records Macro automation.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Creating custom algorithmic patches with eight oscillators available for each of 16 voices.
  • Performing pad-based parts with polyphonic aftertouch and eight patch Macros.
  • Connecting a synth setup through MIDI, balanced TRS outputs, or CV pitch, gate, clock, and modulation I/O.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players who require a traditional keyboard rather than the 16-pad Polytouch interface.
