Stylophone CPM DS-2 Analog Drone and CPM DF-8 Analog MultiFilter Overview

The Stylophone CPM DS-2 Analog Drone and CPM DF-8 Analog MultiFilter couples the two CPM-series units together to create a sound design powerhouse. The Stylophone CPM DS-2 Analog Drone Synthesizer is perfect for experimental musicians and sound designers seeking a compact yet powerful tool for creating unique soundscapes and rhythms. With dual analog 3340 oscillators and sub-oscillators, the CPM DS-2 offers a rich sonic palette, ideal for creating complex textures and pulsating drones. Its 12 modular patch points and Eurorack compatibility let you integrate it easily into your existing setup.


Explore its vintage-inspired effects, including eight AL3201 reverb algorithms and a modulated PT2399 delay, to add depth and character to your creations. The compact design is portable and versatile, with both mains and battery power options, a built-in speaker, and stereo outputs for any setting. At its core, the DS-2 features two independent oscillators with selectable waveforms and smooth crossfading.


The Stylophone CPM DF-8 Modular Analog MultiFilter is made for creators who want a compact setup built for hands on exploration in studio and portable environments. A pair of contrasting filters sits at the heart of the unit. The 2045 circuit keeps things controlled and silky while the GEN R 8 filter introduces a more animated character. Eight filter types per channel plus three combination modes allow detailed sculpting across a wide range of tones. Two ADSR envelopes shape movement across the filters or VCAs.

CPM DS-2 Analog Drone Synthesizer

Versatile modulation with dual LFO outputs

The DS-2 includes a powerful LFO system with two independent waveform outputs, each selectable from 14 options. These range from classic triangle and square waves to more complex exponential and pattern-based shapes. The LFO frequency spans from 0.02 Hz to 70 Hz, with CV control extending it even further.

Each LFO output can be routed independently to different destinations, such as oscillator pitch, filter cutoff, or waveform shape. A trigger input allows for precise LFO reset, making it easy to sync modulation effects with external gear.

Dual oscillators with smooth waveform blending

The DS-2 features two analog oscillators, each based on the AS3340 chip for stable tuning and a wide frequency range. Each oscillator provides triangle, saw, and pulse waveforms, with the ability to smoothly blend between them using the X-Wave control. This allows for unique waveform shaping and dynamic timbral shifts.

A sub-oscillator extends the sonic possibilities further, with options to shift one or two octaves below the main oscillator. The two oscillators can function independently or be linked with pitch sync and hard sync controls, enabling phase-locked and harmonically rich tones.

State-variable filter with dynamic modulation

The DS-2 includes an analog filter based on the AS3320 chip, featuring a 12dB per octave roll-off and switchable low-pass and high-pass modes. The resonance control allows the filter to self-oscillate, generating additional harmonic content or acting as a sine wave oscillator at high settings.

LFO depth controls allow for dynamic modulation of the filter cutoff, creating evolving textures and rhythmic sweeps. The filter’s frequency range extends from 15 Hz to 12 kHz, making it effective for shaping both deep bass drones and bright, resonant tones.

Built-in delay and reverb for added depth

The DS-2 includes onboard delay and reverb effects, adding depth and movement to the sound. The delay, based on the PT2399 chip, provides warm, vintage-style echoes with a time range of 70 ms to 450 ms. At extreme settings, it can self-oscillate, producing feedback-driven textures.

The digital reverb section, powered by the AL3201 effects chip, features eight algorithms, including room, plate, and hall settings. The reverb can be switched between mono and stereo, allowing for wide spatial effects or more focused, classic reverb tones. Separate dry/wet controls for both delay and reverb enable precise blending with the raw analog signal.

Standalone design with Eurorack connectivity

The DS-2 functions as both a desktop synthesizer and a Eurorack module. It can be powered via a 12V DC adapter, six AA batteries, or directly from a Eurorack power supply. The battery compartment is located on the underside of the unit, making it easy to switch between portable and studio use.

With extensive CV patch points, including inputs for pitch control, pulse width modulation, and filter cutoff, the DS-2 integrates seamlessly with other modular and semi-modular gear. The ability to route external audio through the effects section adds further versatility, allowing users to process external synths or drum machines through the DS-2’s delay and reverb.

CPM DF-8 Modular Analog Multi-Mode Filter

Filters that encourage detailed exploration

The DF-8 houses two filter channels, each built to cover a broad range of tones. The 2045 circuit maintains a calm and rounded response that works well for controlled lowpass shaping. The GEN R 8 circuit offers a more spirited voice that feels lively when resonance is pushed.

Each channel includes lowpass, bandpass, highpass and notch modes plus three additional combination types that create extended responses for broader sculpting. This range makes it simple to form subtle shifts or bold peaks, and both filters react accurately to modulation so crafted movements remain clear within a mix.

Envelope control that adapts to many setups

Two ADSR envelopes sit at the centre of the modulation system. Each can be triggered by a gate input, by incoming audio, by a manual button or by an auto repeat mode that loops the envelope continuously. When looping is active the envelope behaves like an LFO and can create rhythmic pulses or slow evolving patterns that follow the attack and release curves.

Both linear and exponential responses help shape the timing to match the character of a patch. Envelope signals can drive filters or VCAs which supports more voice like behaviour inside a compact enclosure, and this helps the DF-8 act as both a processor and a sound source.

Creative tools for unpredictable textures

Two white noise sources introduce grain, air or percussive bite. These can be mixed in gently or pushed for heavier textures. Sample and hold with adjustable slew creates stepped or smoothed random movement suited to evolving lines.

The PT2399 delay adds a vintage style crunch that pairs well with modulated filters and rhythmic sequences. Short repeats can create sharp accents while longer repeats can smear tones into atmospheric pads. Each element encourages open ended experimentation, and the combination of noise, modulation and delay makes it simple to build patches that feel alive.

Portable format built for flexible expansion

Power options include AA batteries, an external supply or a Eurorack connector, which keeps the DF-8 adaptable across different environments. A built-in speaker allows quick monitoring, and stereo outputs suit headphones or line level destinations. The enclosure features ribbed sides that allow multiple CPM units to lock together to form a larger system without extra stands or brackets.

Additional CPM units can create a compact modular environment suited to live sets, studio sessions or mobile sound design, and the DF-8 integrates naturally into these setups thanks to its clear layout and varied patch points.
