The sheer and unprecedented additive, FM, and sampling power of the Synclavier captured the imaginations of the world's musical elite. Synclavier V reanimates this powerhouse instrument for a palette that's uniquely rich, edgy, and inspiring to no end.

The go-to inspiration station for Sting, Frank Zappa, Kate Bush, Michael Jackson, Chick Corea, and many others began life as an FM synth. It evolved into the first tapeless music production system long before DAWs, adding features like high-res sampling and resynthesis. Nothing got close to this Rolls-Royce of synthesizers, and with maxed-out systems fetching mid six figures, almost no one got close either. Co-created with original inventor Cameron Jones, Synclavier V changes all that.
