Description

GAIA 2 invites you into a boundless world of creative sound design. Powered by an advanced hybrid engine that blends wavetable synthesis with virtual analog, it’s easy to grasp the fundamentals before launching into entirely new sonic territory. The intuitive front-panel layout maps out the synthesis process in a clear, logical way, making fast sound shaping feel natural, while the full-size keys offer a responsive, expressive playing experience when it’s time to perform. With the built-in sequencer and Motional Pad, crafting evolving patterns and animated textures is effortless—and tweaking them in real time keeps your ideas flowing. Step into the world of GAIA 2 and turn imagination into sound.

GAIA 2’s newly developed sound engine places an endless palette of tones at your fingertips. Recreate classic flavors inspired by legendary synths of yesterday and today, then push beyond the familiar with phase and shape modulation tools that create rich, complex harmonics traditional analog synths can’t achieve. Want to go harder? Dial up the Drive control in the multimode filter section to add extra bite, saturation, and intensity. From warm, vintage-style pads to aggressive leads and futuristic soundscapes, GAIA 2 is built to cover it all.
