Basilisk Hybrid Bassline Synthesizer
Basilisk is a new bass-line exploration synthesizer from Wirehead Instruments, with dual digital oscillators driven into an aggressive MS20-style analog filter coupled with a powerful generative sequencer.
Whether you need thumping bass-lines, melodic leads, or percussive tribal beats, the Basilisk is ready to lead you down the rabbit hole from the moment you power it on.
The Basilisk is powered by a 1-16-step generative sequencer evolved from the Freaq FM, with multiple algorithms. Explore deep space, underground caverns, deep jungle or 1980s suburbia!
Freaq FM Digital Synthesizer
Wirehead Instruments’ Freaq FM is an 8-bit digital synthesizer for your desktop featuring dual FM voices paired with a 2-track generative sequencer.
From soul-soothing sine waves to multiverse-shredding modulated distortion, slapping bass lines to soaring arp leads, the Freaq FM is a powerhouse of sound design packaged with a melodic and intuitive generative sequencer inspired by the likes of Elektron, Intellijel & Music Thing.
With 2 channels of liquid FM sounds, it plays great by itself or synced with your favorite external gear.
