Doepfer Dark Energy II
Doepfer’s Dark Energy II is an all-analog desktop synthesizer module complete with an onboard USB/MIDI interface. While the interface portion of the module does contain digital components, the rest of the signal path is 100% analog. The unit features a sawtooth-core VCO, -12dB multimode filter, a VCA with manual control over amplitude, and a modulation section consisting of an ADSR envelope generator and two LFOs.
