SonicsmithConVertor+ Audio Controlled Synth

Sonicsmith ConVertor+

The ConVertor+, from Sonicsmith, is a revolutionary new type of synthesizer that can analyze and extract the pitch and volume of any audio signal and apply it to the synthesizer inside of the ConVertor+.

Inside is an oscillator with square and sawtooth waveforms that can be mixed together with the Wave mix knob. The incoming audio can also be mixed with the synthesizer tone with the SRC mix knob. The synthesizer aspect can be offset to a particular harmony of the incoming audio, from a fifth down to a fourth up. 
The ConVertor+ can also be used to control external synthesizers that have the ability to be controlled by CV. There are CV outputs for the Pitch and Envelope (and Gate) signals which can be patched into any 1V/Oct input or VCA/Envelope respectively.
