Modular Synthesis

Plugin Expandability

The S90 ES delivers a lot of impressive features

and sound on its own, but if you want to expand its

capabilities its Modular Plugin System lets you add the

sounds you need with easy to install expansion boards.

Add the legendary sounds of the DX7 or the warm

punch of an analog synth. Each expansion board has

its own dedicated tone generator and polyphony so it’s

almost like adding another synthesizer to your system

without loosing any of the S90 ES’s onboard voices.
