Superbooth 2023: Animal Factory Asura Dual Osc Wavetable Synth

We spoke to Aditya, the founder of Animal Factory Amplification, who showcased their new prototype synthesizer, the Asura, at Superbooth 2023. The Asura is a standalone synthesizer that features two wavetable oscillators that can be summed or set to modulate each other, which then goes into a distortion circuit, instead of a filter, allowing for idiosyncratic sound creation.
Aditya also revealed that they spent time during the pandemic to develop the definitive versions of their pedals, including the Pit Wiper, Chemical Burn, Baron, Gaudi, and their new analog phaser called the Phasier. The new pedals are designed in-house, including the metal casting, and will feature extended controls and level boosts for certain settings.

The Animal Factory Amplification pedals come with soft switches for true bypass and have improved features compared to their previous models. Aditya mentioned that they are still working on the production of the pedals, with die casting being one of the biggest challenges they faced. Nonetheless, they expect the pedals to be available in about three to six months.
