The analogue synthesizer, which was originally launched in 2018, still packs the same features into its portable, “inspiring workflow” but with a new colour scheme.

The red trim around the lower casing of the synth has been replaced with a black finish, along with swanky new black keys on the keyboard and a replacement of its green backlit pattern sequencer with red lights.

This is simply an aesthetic change from Multimedia – but one that allows the manufacturer to remind hardware synthesizer fans of its products already on offer.

UNO Synth Pro has three oscillators, a noise generator, pulse-width modulation and a hard sync feature. It also has a variable wave shape and FM/ring modulation settings.

In our review of the original edition, it earned a 9/10 and the MusicTech Choice Award. We said: “IK Multimedia has produced a hybrid analogue-digital synth that manages to blend tweakability with an ease of use and sonic quality that justifies the price for the desktop model, especially when the impressive interconnectivity is factored in.

“UNO Synth Pro is a well-thought-out instrument that effortlessly conjures an expansive range of sounds, from the essentials to the experimental, making the most of their analogue sonics and digital flexibility.”

IK Multimedia’s also recently released its new iRig Pro Quattro I/O audio interface. It’s incredibly small and portable and is the manufacturer’s most feature-packed audio interface to date. Read our review of the iRig Pro Quattro here.
