We say...
One of the most exciting new synth releases we've seen for a while! The Polyvera nails the glorious vibe of old-school digital hardware but with analogue warmth and clever modern features. If you like your synths to have a bit of grit and character, but want to control exactly how much, this is for you!
Manufacturer's description
Polyvera is a six-voice hybrid synthesizer that fuses the raw, edgy textures of vintage digital hardware with the lush warmth of analog circuitry. Designed and hand-assembled in small batches by Swedish boutique manufacturer Suonobuono, Polyvera offers a unique sonic signature steeped in '80s/'90s character—yet tailored for modern workflows.
Each voice features dual digital oscillators capable of wavetable synthesis or sample playback. With more than 100 factory wavetables, support for user samples/wavetables, and direct audio sampling through its input, Polyvera gives direct access to both pristine tones and beautifully imperfect digital artifacts modeled after legendary early digital synths and samplers.
The oscillators are sculpted through a pair of true analog filters with eight distinct modes, offering everything from buttery smoothness to aggressive saturation. Custom-designed exclusively for Polyvera, they inject unmistakable analog depth and presence into the signal path.
Polyvera’s deep modulation architecture empowers expressive sound design, featuring a sub- oscillator, three envelopes, three syncable LFOs, through-zero FM, filter cross-modulation, phase sync, ring modulation, and more—all accessible with minimal menu diving thanks to its 36 hands-on controls.
Two multi-mode effects processors round out the signal chain, delivering a variety of choruses, phasers, delays, and particularly lush reverbs. These all crafted to complement Polyvera’s sonic identity, not generic DSP presets. These are not generic DSP presets, but custom algorithms that have been explicitly developed to fit Polyvera’s own character.
Polyvera supports MPE and polyphonic aftertouch, allowing for detailed expressive control. It includes a 64-step polyphonic sequencer, an onboard arpeggiator, and 512 preset slots shared between factory content and user patches.
Polyvera is a focused instrument with a bold voice, designed for artists and sound explorers who crave character and inspiration at their fingertips.

How much is my shipping?
Shipping is automatically calculated before you submit your payment information. Simply add items to your cart and proceed to the checkout page, where you'll be offered shipping options and their prices. In the UK, 'next working day' shipping is free if the order value is over £150, and £5 otherwise. We can also ship on a 'next working day before 12pm' service, which costs £6 for orders over £150 and £7.50 for orders under £150.
Shipping to mainland EU typically costs between £7 and £20, depending on the shipping method and the size and weight of the order.
Do you ship to my country?
Almost certainly - the site will give you an estimate of shipping costs if you add an item to the cart and then enter your country and postcode. If you have specific requirements (such as if you prefer UPS over FedEx, for example) then let us know in advance and we'll try to work something out for you.
Shipping methods
We use a combination of DPD, Royal Mail and Parcelforce for the UK, and for international orders it's either DHL, FedEx, UPS, Royal Mail or Parcelforce depending on where you are in the world. If you have a particular preference then try to let us know BEFORE you order so we can look into it for you. Please note that there may occasionally be additional shipping charges if you live in a remote area, depending on what surcharges are applied by the shipper. We'll get in touch to discuss this with you in such cases.
Dispatch times
For UK orders, we aim to dispatch the same working day if we get the order before 16:00. If you have a really urgent situation then of course drop us an email before ordering and we'll always do our absolute best to accommodate you.
For international orders, we normally dispatch the same day if we get the order before 13:00 but again, occasionally it might be the next day before we can send it out, and sometimes the couriers may come to collect a little earlier than scheduled which would also push an order into the next day.
Saturday/Sunday shipping
If you're in the UK and you order before 16:00 on a Friday then we can send something for a Saturday or Sunday delivery with DPD. This is FREE for order values over £350, £5 for order values between £75 and £250, and £7 for order values under £75. (NB: this applies to UK mainland addresses only). Please note that any orders placed after 16:00 on a Friday will ship on the Monday.
International shipping times
Since April 2020, the couriers we use have suspended guarantees for shipping times, so even though we're paying them for priority services - 24-48 hours for most of the world - in practice it's often an extra day on top and sometimes it can be longer. There is absolutely nothing we can do about this, unfortunately. If you are outside the UK and it's a life-or-death situation where you absolutely MUST have that passive mult for the next day then... it may be better to find a local supplier.
Pre-orders
If a product is listed as a pre-order, it means we've ordered it from the supplier but it's not physically in stock yet. The product listing will include an estimated shipping date based on the best information we have from the supplier, but do bear in mind this is subject to change and is not a guaranteed date.
If you place an order containing a mixture of in-stock and pre-order items, we'll normally hold off on shipping anything until the pre-order item(s) have arrived, rather than splitting it into multiple shipments. If you need the in-stock items sooner, we'd recommend placing separate orders. As always, please get in touch if you have questions.
