Knobula Monumatic 8-Voice Polyphonic Synthesizer with 16 Oscillator Modes

The Knobula Monumatic is a compact powerhouse of polyphony — a full 8-voice synthesizer with 16 oscillator modes and six filter types, all in just 12HP. Whether you’re after vintage string machines, punchy monosynths, or lush trance leads, Monumatic delivers a wide palette of tones without crowding your case.

Each of the 16 oscillator modes offers its own flavour: from supersaw stacks, Polymoog textures, Casio-style phase distortion, to string machine vibes and punchy organ tones. These oscillator algorithms give you expressive tonal foundations, ready to sculpt with a versatile 6-mode filter section, including a smooth 24dB Butterworth low pass, notch, vowel, phaser-like all-pass, and more. Add overdrive at the flick of a switch to introduce rich saturation.

Control is intuitive and flexible. You’ve got dedicated CV inputs for V/Oct, Gate, and Filter Cutoff, plus two assignable CV inputs (CV A & CV B) that can modulate almost any parameter — even swapping oscillator modes on the fly. MIDI input with MPE support offers expressive control from modern keyboards, and switching between polyphonic and monophonic modes is as simple as pressing a button.

One of Monumatic’s standout features is its micro-tuning system: go from subtle analog-style drift to accurate Just Intonation that adjusts based on the harmonic content of the notes being played. Want pre-programmed chords on a single gate input? Load up one of the eight user chord memory slots for instant harmonic richness.

Rounding it out are high-quality stereo outputs, built-in reverb and chorus effects, and a smart shift-layer control system for accessing secondary parameters like glide, panning, MIDI channel, and more.

Whether you want a versatile synth voice or a full polyphonic module that plays beautifully over MIDI or CV, Monumatic packs serious synthesis power in a small, well-designed space.
