LOS ANGELES /MUSEWIRE – Music Industry Newswire/ — California-based 1010music has announced two new desktop mini synthesizers, including their new lemondrop, a Polyphonic Granular Mini Synth in shocking yellow livery, and the nanobox fireball Polyphonic Wavetable Mini Synth in a fiery red case. These polyphonic mini synthesizers offer intuitive touchscreen control, 4 voice polyphony and built in effects (FX).

Speaking as long time owner of the 1010music Bitbox mk2, I can say I am pretty excited about the ‘lemondrop’ module, and already sent in my pre-order same day announced!

I have been looking at another popular granular synth, but I could buy both of these nanobox modules for the same price as that one other desktop unit.
