Rysy and Smugi. Two devices that shaped early electronic music, then dropped out of memory.

Rysy is a 1950s filter and tube preamp from the Polish Radio Experimental Studio, captured as one chain. Smugi is a 1960s Swiss filter bank sampled from the Albiswerk 502 - twelve parallel bands of glory.

Both were built for people inventing a language as they went along. Run your own recordings through them and invent some of your own.

Sampled, not modeled

Every instrument and every effect here is sampled from the hardware itself, one note or one curve at a time.

Kept as played

Deeply sampled, down to the mechanical noises - nothing cleaned up or evened out afterwards.
