Reon Driftbox J Programmable Joystick Synthesizer Overview
The Reon Driftbox J is ideal for experimental musicians and sound designers looking for hands-on CV and VCA control. Equipped with two programmable joysticks, this unique controller lets you sequence and manipulate audio or CV signals with ease. Using one joystick for CV output on the X-axis and the other for VCA on the Y-axis, you can change levels, adjust panning, and add expression without affecting the original audio groove.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionDual joystick control for dynamic sound manipulation
The Driftbox J’s two large joysticks give you hands-on control over both CV and VCA output, providing an intuitive interface for real-time modulation. The X-axis joystick controls CV output, while the Y-axis joystick modulates the VCA, making it easy to adjust parameters on the fly. This setup is especially useful for those wanting to shape sound across external gear without interfering with the natural rhythm of the audio signal.
Record and sequence joystick movements
With a built-in 16-step sequencer, the Driftbox J enables you to record joystick movements in real-time or enter them step-by-step, making it easy to create and recall complex sequences. Manual or looped modes let you switch seamlessly between freeform control and structured playback, giving you versatile ways to add movement and progression to your sound, whether live or in the studio.
MIDI and gate synchronisation for flexible integration
The Driftbox J supports both MIDI and Gate synchronisation, allowing it to function as a master or slave in a variety of setups. This means it can easily sync with other devices or sequencers, letting you keep everything in perfect time while introducing unique movement patterns through its programmable VCA and joystick control. Ideal for modular setups and collaborative rigs.
Modular expansion for complex layering
Expand your sound design capabilities by combining multiple Driftbox J units. Each unit’s unique joystick settings and sequencer programming can be layered to create increasingly complex patterns and expressions. Perfect for live performances or elaborate studio sessions, this flexibility lets you push the boundaries of creative sound manipulation.
