Key notes: Molecule Synth is a customizable musical instrument with a modular synthesizer that enables users to choose the sound it makes.

Office address: Portland, Oregon, United States

Description: Molecule Synth is a musical instrument like none other: it is a connected, app-smart modular synthesizer, presented as hand-sized hexagon modules in a construction kit that can be arranged and rearranged in new configurations each time it is played. The hexagons are color-coded with visually intuitive logos that make its unique “snap-together” connections simple for anyone to manipulate. Molecule Synth “hacks” the experience of playing music so that “play” begins with the creative piecing together of the instrument itself. Users discover new fun and open-ended possibilities as they swap one controller for another, and explore Molecule’s compatibility with other sounds and instruments. Molecule Synth is sold as a 4- or 7-piece set, but it is devised as an infinitely-expandable system: its interconnected, highly adaptable hardware units are made so that each user might customize, add new modules of his or her choice, and fine-tune the instrument’s music making capabilities with app-enhanced features. You choose the sounds the instrument makes, and the way it makes those sounds — feed your inner-inventor and Design Your Own Instrument with Molecule Synth! Molecule Synth combines LEGO-like interchangeability with Synthesizers with Physical Electronics.
