‘SYNTHESIS FOR ALL’ - Let's turn on the Blipblox SK2 and have fun making electronic music in a new way!

Blipblox SK2 is a mid-range model in the Blipblox series. The cute-sounding white Blipblox, the authentic-sounding black Blipblox After Dark, and the two-tone white and blue Blipblox SK2 are all designed to be perfect for learning about synthesizers while still being able to play authentic sounds.

The SK2's control panel is printed with the names of the parameters and the signal flow of the synthesiser, so you can understand how the synthesiser works as you touch the knobs and buttons, and create the sounds you want.

The oscillator that generates the sound can be selected from 16 unique types, and it is equipped with a multi-mode filter with resonance control that dynamically processes the sound.

The stereo multi-tap delay effect that adds spaciousness to the sound outputs stereo sound from the 1/4-inch stereo audio output jack.

In addition to kick and snare drum sounds, the drum machine also includes a variety of sound effects such as ‘happy beep beep sounds’, ‘robot voices’ and ‘funky voice samples’, with a total of around 100 different types. All of these can be changed in pitch to create lively sounds.

The built-in melodies, which come in a wide variety of over 400 different types, include a huge number of classical melodies as well as fun and interesting melodies. Each time you press the SEQ button, a different melody will play, opening up a new world.

This synthesiser is not only fun for children to play with, but also allows adults to enjoy authentic sound editing, and is easy to introduce into a production studio.
