The Analog Polysynth That Ruled the Mid-1980s
In the mid-1980s, there was one analog polyphonic synthesizer to rule them all. This innovative synth was lauded for its easy programmability, rock-solid digitally controlled oscillators, convenient patch memory, and — most notably — its uber-fat onboard stereo chorus. The Cherry Audio DCO-106 models this legendary synthesizer in exacting detail, while also including modern enhancements. Experience up to 16 voices of polyphony; benefit from more than 330 presets, including the original unit's 106 factory presets. The hardware's vaunted chorus is also included, along with top-shelf delay and reverb effects. The DCO-106 also boasts 1-click UI magnification, MPE support, full MIDI control, and DAW automation for all controls. If you're foaming at the mouth for an '80s-era polysynth, the Cherry Audio DCO-106 delivers the sound of the decade's best sellers.

Jam-packed with robust features
The DCO-106 supplies up to 16 voices of polyphony with multiple voice assign models and a single-key chord memory mode. You also get an expanded LFO section with six waveforms, plus a unison detune, which yields massive-sounding leads and earthshaking bass sounds. The DCO-106 also includes MPE support, full MIDI controls, DAW automation for all controls, and compatibility with the original hardware's SysEx commands. Thanks to its robust features, the DCO-106 is shaping up to be one of our favorite soft synths here at Sweetwater.
Killer built-in effects
The original hardware unit's calling card was its super-lush chorus effect. The Cherry Audio DCO-106 replicates this rich stereo chorus to a T, arming you with all the fat, swirling modulation you can handle. You also get three lush reverb modes, including a stunning new proprietary algorithm. A full-featured delay section is onboard, waiting to add space and dimension to your sound. What's more, the delays can be synchronized with your DAW, as can the DCO-106's LFO section.
