Compact form meets modular function
The British-born EMS family of synths—featuring the sonically identical Synthi AKS and VCS3—were among the first to distill modular synthesizer functionality into a more portable form. Where most competitive designs like the Minimoog sacrificed flexibility to size and simplicity, EMS retained a modular heart through the genius of one of the first matrix patchbays to grace a synth. That additional versatility led to more experimentation outside of melodic norms and into the more electronic realms of psychedelia and sci-fi effects. Cue Pink Floyd’s “On the Run” from “The Dark Side of the Moon” LP.
Synthi V is the perfect evolution of the synth that turned a lot of heads. Now you can use it to turn some heads of your own.
Re-Make/Re-Model
If you're one of the lucky ones who owns or has played a Synthi or VCS3, you'll not only be amazed at how accurate our model is, but also blown away by its dramatic enhancements and new features. If you've never had the joy of experiencing the original, you're in for a treat with Synthi V.
Like the original, Synthi V is one fat, edgy beast that begs experimentation. In addition to making minor mods, we’ve added a whole new set of digital tools that bring this instrument to the vanguard of today’s music. A modern step sequencer, dedicated beat-syncable LFO, and on-board effects are just some of the sonic goodies that will make Synthi V your new obsession. You also now have the power of full matrix modulation targeting every single parameter with totally variable signal strength.
Oh, yeah… did we mention that we’ve turned this awesome monophonic synth into a 4-voice poly? You’re welcome!
With Synthi V, you can add spice to any genre—or create your own.
Artists Corner
I am very inspired by the new Synthi V which has a lot of charisma. The scalable 4K resolution gives me the feeling of having the real analog synth in my hands.10/10.

Artists Corner
Original Synthi’s are always a pain to use musically, The Synthi V captures the character of the original machine, but far surpasses the original in its ease of use and is now my go to soft-synth for characterful analog sounds.

With infinite sonic possibilities,
it’s still easy to find just the right sound
Synthi V’s comes with an extensive library of leads, basses, textures, sound effects and more. Yet, it’s always easy to find the sound you’re looking for because of our universal system of categories and tags. Of course, you can organize your own patches using that same elegant system.
Sound Corner
Discover the sound of Synthi V. Thanks to its modulation matrix, you can route any signal into anything, and thanks to its unpredictable nature you’ll often create sounds you’ve never heard before. We’ve been careful in modelling every single component of the machine to reproduce defects at every levels, from the oscillators to the beautiful distortion found at the different gain stages, contributing to the rich harmonic content of the original sound. Adding up a polyphony of 4 voices expands the potential of the original, letting you create pads and more evolving sounds.
