We are pleased to introduce a unique brand that is rapidly winning the hearts of musicians worldwide — Ashun Sound Machines (ASM). This is a company whose mission is to create innovative musical instruments that allow artists to fully unleash their creative potential and expression.
At the heart of ASM's philosophy are four key principles: design, ease of use, sound quality, and playing enjoyment. The company brings together talented professionals with diverse backgrounds and a common goal: to overcome technological barriers to bring high-quality musical instruments to the market. The ASM team creates products they are proud of, and customers are proud to own them.
The brand's main innovation is the patented Polytouch® technology — a superior solution for polyphonic aftertouch, developed by ASM and manufactured by their parent company, Medeli.
What makes Polytouch® special?
The technology offers excellent response and high precision, providing a platform for expressive performance with a natural feel. Importantly, it does not require learning a new playing technique.
The keyboards undergo a meticulous development, assembly, and final calibration process at the Medeli factory using high-tech equipment. This ensures flawless operation and consistent response from all keys.
The quality of Polytouch® is proven by numerous awards and enthusiastic reviews for the entire Hydrasynth synthesizer line.
In addition to polyphonic aftertouch, ASM keyboards (even compact ones like the Hydrasynth Explorer) offer Note-Off Velocity and Note-On Velocity data output, giving musicians an unprecedented level of control.

ASM Hydrasynth Explorer Synthesizer for UAH 33,559
The ASM Hydrasynth Explorer synthesizer is a unique combination of a powerful sound engine and exceptional mobility. Its compact body and ability to be powered by 8 AA batteries make it the perfect companion for musicians who value freedom and the ability to create anywhere. A key feature of the instrument is its 37-note mid-sized keyboard with patented Polytouch® technology. It offers true polyphonic aftertouch, allowing independent control over each note, adding incredible expression to your playing. The keyboard is also sensitive to Note On/Off velocity.
At the core of the sound is a wavetable engine, featuring three oscillators (with 219 waveforms and WAVELIST mode) and innovative MUTANTS modules. These "mutants" open up a wide range of sound-altering possibilities, including FM synthesis, WavStack™, Osc Sync, PWM, and Harmonic Scan. For further sound shaping, the synthesizer is equipped with two filters (16 different models plus a state-variable filter) that can operate flexibly—in series or parallel.
The instrument's modulation capabilities are virtually limitless: it has five LFOs (with a STEP mode up to 64 steps) and five DAHDSR envelopes with looping capability, all managed through a 32-slot modulation matrix. It also features an arpeggiator (with RATCHET & CHANCE), high-quality effects (Delay, Reverb, Lo-Fi, Distortion), and a full set of interfaces, including CV/Gate for integration with Eurorack and Buchla, as well as MIDI and USB. This makes the Hydrasynth Explorer a versatile instrument for both studio and live performance.
ASM Hydrasynth Desktop Synthesizer for UAH 46,157
The ASM Hydrasynth Desktop synthesizer packs the Hydrasynth sound engine into a compact desktop format. Its main feature is the 24 velocity-sensitive pads with polyphonic aftertouch (Polytouch® Pads), which allow you to play melodies and chords with incredible expression without connecting an external controller. The interface is meticulously designed for a fast workflow.
The heart of the instrument is its wavetable engine, featuring three oscillators with 219 waveforms. Unique WaveMorphing and WAVELIST functions (allowing you to combine up to 8 waves) open up space for creating complex and evolving textures. Two "Mutators" allow for deep sound alteration using FM-Linear, WaveStack™, Osc Sync, and other techniques. The synthesizer is complemented by two filters (Filter 1 has 16 models, Filter 2 is SEM-like), which can be configured in series or parallel.
The modulation possibilities are almost endless: the instrument is equipped with five LFOs (with 10 waveforms and a STEP-sequencer mode) and five DAHDSR envelopes (with looping capability and the ability to become LFOs). All of this is integrated into a massive 32-slot modulation matrix. The synthesizer also features a flexible arpeggiator (with RATCHET & CHANCE), high-quality pre- and post-effects (Reverb, Delay, Lo-Fi, Distortion), and a full set of connections, including CV/Gate for perfect integration with modular systems.
ASM Hydrasynth Keyboard Synthesizer for UAH 65,311
The ASM Hydrasynth Keyboard synthesizer is an instrument built for maximum performance expression. At its heart is the proprietary 49-key standard-sized semi-weighted Polytouch® keyboard. This technology provides full polyphonic aftertouch, allowing the musician to control parameters for each note individually just by varying the pressure. This level of control, previously only available on rare vintage instruments, is complemented by a unique 4-octave ribbon controller (for glissando or even "theremin" style playing) and ergonomic pitch and modulation wheels.
The instrument's sound engine is no less impressive. It's an advanced wavetable synthesizer with three oscillators (219 waveforms) that support the unique WAVELIST mode—the ability to select up to eight waves and smoothly morph between them. The signal then passes through two powerful "Mutators" (Mutants) modules, which offer deep modulation methods like FM-Linear, WaveStack™, Hard Sync, and various types of PWM. Sound shaping is completed by two filters (Filter 1 has 11-16 models, including vocal; Filter 2 is a 12 dB SEM-style), which can be run in series or parallel.
To create complex, evolving, and dynamic patches, the Hydrasynth Keyboard offers colossal modulation capabilities: five LFOs (with 10 waveforms and a step sequencer mode) and five 6-stage DAHDSR envelopes (with looping). This is all combined in a massive 32-slot modulation matrix (with over 150 destinations). The instrument also features an arpeggiator, macro controllers for live performance, high-quality pre- and post-effects, an intuitive interface with an OLED display, and a full suite of connections, including MIDI, USB, and CV/Gate for integration with modular systems.
ASM Hydrasynth Deluxe Synthesizer for UAH 83,959
The ASM Hydrasynth Deluxe is the flagship model of the line. Its key feature is a dual sound engine, allowing the instrument to operate as a single 16-voice synthesizer or as two completely independent 8-voice instruments (bi-timbral). In Multi mode (split or layer), each of the two parts gets its own separate balanced stereo outputs, ideal for complex studio routing and live performance. The heart of the instrument is an extended 73-note semi-weighted Polytouch® keyboard with standard-sized keys, providing full polyphonic aftertouch—each note can individually modulate the sound based on pressure.
For maximum performance control, in addition to the keyboard, there is a 4-octave ribbon controller that can be used for modulation, pitch-bending, or even as a separate monophonic instrument (Theremin mode). Each voice is equipped with three oscillators (219 waveforms) with unique WaveMorphing and WAVELIST functions (allowing combination of up to 8 waves), as well as two "Mutators" modules for deep sound shaping (FM-Linear, WavStack™, Osc Sync, PWM, etc.). The signal is further processed by two filters (Filter 1 has 16 models, Filter 2 is 12 dB SEM-like), which can be run in series or parallel.
The modulation capabilities in the Hydrasynth Deluxe are colossal: five LFOs (with 10 waveforms and a STEP-sequencer mode) and five 6-stage DAHDSR envelopes (with looping) are controlled via a massive 32-slot modulation matrix. In Multi mode, the instrument offers two independent arpeggiators and two separate effects chains (pre- and post-) for each part. Powerful macros and a full suite of interfaces, including MIDI, USB, and CV/Gate, complete the image of this ultimate instrument for sound design and performance.
