PITTSBURGH MODULAR SYSTEM 10, new analogue mono synths

With its semi-modular design littered with patch points, Pittsburgh Modular’s latest release is just crying out to be hooked up to other synth modules and turned into the hub of a modular system. But before you write it off as just another component in a modular system (or get out the credit card and start ordering filters and oscillators to plug into it), let us clarify that the System 10 is a great synth in its own right, before you even pick up a patch cable.

It’s a flexible system built around Pittsburgh’s Synthesizer Box, a complete synth voice in a single module. In this section you’ll find a single oscillator, one envelope generator, an LFO and a very good filter. Alongside it there’s a utility module with three mixers and two multiples, then a MIDI-to-CV converter and finally the output section. As with all semi-modular designs, you don’t need to make any physical connections using patch cables to get a sound out of the System 10; everything is internally normalled and routed to create a basic architecture. The patch points can override these internal routings, creating a great entry point to the world of modular synthesis.

The System 10 offers incredible value for money, whether you intend to use it as the basis for a modular system or not.

  • Wow, so you can plug your guitar on ‘audio in’ and what comes out is the synth sound? Can the Moog Sub 37 do this? For midi sync, I would need midi connections right? Which is better Sub 37 or Pro 2?

  • Damn what about the MFB Dominion 1? That’s easily one of the best monosynths on the market today.

  • First question Are you up to date with 2025/26 in regards to DJ experience in all formats, hence vinyl records education at events whether it be 100 or 1000 attendance and advice for multi genres in vinyl and digital mixing
    They do differ In events
    Not only in headphones advice but in the transition for mixes, different levels on a mixer
    I feel this should be addressed more often for all ages esp up and coming DJs and in production as this is vital for all, not just digital mixing
    Also,Consider countries outside the UK
    No matter the economy! There is so much untapped gifted people with very little financially all over this planet
    And like myself with 30 years experience DJLUSHNZ in New Zealand Spent 20 years in London until 4 years ago have noticed a growing divide in DJs and producer’s who just can’t and are so stubborn in reaching out to all this talent and their crews and promoter’s won’t budge on opening their hearts and acknowledging there is a heck of a lot to be improved on and not sticking to the same old line Up or safe bet
