Superbooth 2025: PWM - Mantis Updates

We had a chat with Paul from PWM, who shared exciting developments for their Mantis V2. They recently acquired the Oxford Synthesizer Company, enabling them to integrate original Oscar wavetables and code into the Mantis platform. This has led to the introduction of a new V2 firmware with a modelled saw wave and dual filter capabilities, inspired by the classic Oscar sound. The update will be available via USB, allowing existing Mantis owners easy access.

In collaboration with GForce Software, new purchases of Mantis and Malevolent now include a license for Impostor 3, adding value to the overall package.

Paul also teased a new synth featuring three wavetable plus PCM oscillators and 16-track sequencing, hinting at a promising future release. They aim to maintain their collaborative approach, partnering with talented developers and designers to create innovative music technology products.
