Summary
Scaler Music has released Carbon Electra 2, an upgraded software synthesizer that integrates music theory into its functionality. The key feature is Scale Lock, which allows users to select scales of all qualities (major, minor, etc.) and ensures that any notes played or generated stay within the chosen scale. This "musical intelligence" approach helps musicians explore sounds while remaining harmonically in tune with their session.
