The Alesis Andromeda A6 is a 16-voice, 16-channel multitimbral analog synthesizer by Alesis, which was released in 2000 and discontinued in 2010. It combines a pure analog audio signal path with digital control technologies. The VCOs have a pitch correction function, a feature missing on older synthesizers.
The model number A6 is hinting at ASIC – Alesis developed an application-specific integrated circuit for the synth.
The product was designed by Axel Hartmann.
