Intellijel Designs Cascadia (Dark Grey)

Your sonic playground includes all the extras

• 
  
• Cascadia semi-modular synthesizer.

• 101 patch points, 34 sliders, 16 knobs, 28 switches, 5 push buttons, and 36 leds.

• 14 Patch cables — 4×10cm, 4×15cm, 4×30cm, 2×45cm.

• USB-C to A cable.

• International AC Adaptor.

• Intellijel cable tie.

Two Precision Analog VCOs 

• VCO A is Thru-zero FM-ready with a dedicated Index VCA, Sub Oscillator, PWM and Soft/hard sync.

• VCO B is a combo VCO/LFO with 4 simultaneous outputs

Six Channel Waveform Mixer

• Two patchable (normalled) inputs

• Noise generator with multiple algorithms.

• Optional asymmetric soft clipping on the mix output.

Liquid-Sounding, Cascaded 4-Pole Multimode Filter

• Eight Modes: LP1, LP2, LP4, BP2, BP4, HP4, NT2, Phazor.

• Additional dedicated outputs for LP4 and HP4.

• Input Level Knob for fine control of filter input and resonance balance and added drive.

• Multiple FM inputs and a QM input, all with attenuators.

Wavefolder Circuit

• West Coast-style parallel wavefolder.

• Normalled into the auxiliary input on the VCA in parallel with the filter.

Dual Digital Envelopes

• ENV A is a versatile east coast style ADSR / AHDSR envelope generator with a hold function and dynamic level/time control. Normalled to the VCA to instantly shape your sound.

• ENV B is a complex, multimode function generator with a West Coast style AR/ASR/Cycling AR, a beat syncable LFO, and Burst generator modes. Normalled to the filter for instant FM without patching.

VCA A and Output Path

• VCA A is a linear VCA with auxiliary input.

• Global Output Mixer with overdrive circuit and bypassable asymmetric soft clipping.

Cascadia also features a whole host of utilities for getting the most out of your patches.

Cascadia is equipped with a ton of I/O to get it connected to the rest of your gear.

Deeper MIDI configuration is available with our Intelljel Config App (link below).

The normalization behind the panel allows for a ton of exploration without ever adding a patch cable; there is years of material to explore in Cascadia and years more when you start patching. We’ve included everything you need to get started: 14 assorted patch cables, USB-A to USB-C cable, and an international power supply.

In addition to additional patch cables, we have additional options for swapping the wooden cheeks for metal side cheeks or a rackmount kit with a storage tray—great for an effects pedal or patch cables.
