Description

SONIC170

Hi y’all, it’s me.

Here I bring you the SONIC170, inspired by the TE OP-1 Field synthesizer.

It’s a 65% with a knob and a customizable LED macro module.

Crucifix-looking design has been removed due to religious concerns.

I’m not good at writing stories so here are some renders. (Proto pics and all info are included below)
