Adam Synths Warthog

Posted on by

The Warthog by Adam Synths is an innovative Eurorack-compatible analog modular synthesizer that introduces groundbreaking features such as total recall and seamless DAW integration. This system allows users to save and recall all potentiometer positions, switch settings, and patch cable configurations, revolutionizing the modular synthesis experience.

Feature List

  • Preset Sharing: Save and share patches with other users, fostering collaboration and expanding creative possibilities.
  • Total Recall: Save and recall all knob positions, switch settings, and patch cable configurations, enabling effortless recreation of complex patches. ​
  • Snapshot Functionality: Create and store ‘snapshots’ of different sound settings, allowing for instant changes and smooth morphing between sounds. ​
  • DAW Integration: Integrate directly with your Digital Audio Workstation, with real-time MIDI control over all parameters for enhanced workflow.

Included Modules

  • Oscillator – Central tuning with waveshaping, waveforms, sync, sub oscillator, PWM, FM and more.
  • Multimode VCF & VCA – central cutoff frequence with LP (4 Pole), LP (2 Pole), BP and HP modes. Q-Comp, resonance, drive and more.
  • Matrix 428 – control module with multiple ins and outs for routing and connectivity.
  • Modulation Tools – Syncable LFO with variable waveforms shapes, rate, glide and math controls, sample & hold, portamento, noise and more.
  • Dual VC ENV – full ADSR x 2 controls with trigger and voltage controls.
  • Buffered Mults – 16 (2 x banks of 8) multiples for routing and duplication of CV/Audio.
  • 2 Channel Mixer with Aux 1 & 2 sends and returns.
  • Mod Wheels – unique wooden mod wheels that can be routed to multiple locations for realtime control and recording modulation.

The Central Unit

At the core is the Central Unit. This module supervises interface tasks and allows for control over the other modules. At a glance, it looks like this unit has digital and control voltage connectivity which you can then patch into your system and furthermore it can be controlled via your DAW. This allows for patch and data recall both on the module and via your computer and MIDI. There is a large OLED display with controls on the top and bottom that seem to correspond to menu items and functions. Towards the bottom is a data entry encoder with parameter and value buttons.

Future Expansion & Connectivity

The rear of the custom designed chassis has 25 pin expansion ports, ethernet, MIDI DIN In & Out, USB (Type-B), 2 Auxillary send and returns, headphones, and L + R outputs.

They mention there will be future integration with other modules and systems.

Price: TBA (see it at Superbooth 2025)
