- Intellijel Cascadia: An advanced, performance-oriented, semi-modular synthesizer.
Cascadia is packed with a mix of classic East and West Coast synthesizer blocks. Normalized connections let you get straight to the sounds inside. Or, let your imagination run wild and patch any of the modules together however you choose. Make small tweaks to the architecture, or re-route the entire synth to your liking-the choice is yours!
A massive semi-modular system in a small case with the footprint of a laptop. Cascadia has MIDI in/out/thru/USB, Eurorack compatible signal levels and pro-level audio I/O to interface with the rest of your studio or get your studio started.
Features:
- Performance-oriented, "East and West" Coast modern analog semi-modular synthesizer
-101 jacks (plus 10 on rear), 34 sliders, 16 knobs, 28 switches, 36 leds and 5 push buttons
-Two precision analog VCOs (VCOA has TZ-FM with INDEX VCA, PWM and SOFT/HARD sync options)
- Eurorack compatible signal levels
- Cascaded 4-Pole multimode filter with extensive modulation options and unique modes
- ENV A: Versatile ADSR / AHDSR envelope generator with HOLD function and dynamic level/time control
- ENV B: Complex, beat syncable, multimode function generator with Envelope, LFO, and Burst generator modes
- Triple analog LFO with linked, divisible rates and CV control
- Comprehensive and precise MIDI to CV and GATE implementation with additional synced/tapped LFO and CLOCK outputs
- Six channel waveform mixer with asymmetric soft clipping
- Extensive utility section that includes Noise, S&H, Envelope Follower, Attenuverter, Buff Mults, Summer, Inverters, and connection to a digital potentiometer based guitar pedal expression control interface.
- Analog ring modulator
- Parallel “West Coast” style wavefolder
- Auxiliary VCA and 4-Pole Diode Ladder VCF combination for additional dynamics
- External effect send/return loop with line or guitar pedal levels and wet/dry mix
- Global output drive circuit with bypassable asymmetric soft clipping
- Balanced 1/4" line inputs and outputs plus a dedicated headphone output
- Very Compact (fits in a backpack) and durable powder-coated enclosure with bespoke oak wood sides.
- Comes with 14 assorted patch cables, USB-A to USB-C cable, and an international power supply.

If I may be so bold ... my first two (i.e. more coming in the future) videos from me on Cascadia!

How cool stuff I always think coming from them, boy I think you did them(Intellijel) a huge favor with these, cause this one wasn't the most inspiring demo I've seen..
I love you
Somebody’s jelly they aren’t the first recommendation
Could seriously sell 90% of my sprawling module collection and just rock this and be happy
Yea I think this and my shared system would be enough synth for a life time.
But I’d miss the LI and MI.
Make sure you keep your effects and sequencers; pretty glaring omissions on this guy for it to be touted as a "stand-alone" unit. Sad too, cause everything else is 11/10!
Everything is so thoroughly thought through. Just the engineering is wow.
It looks beautiful. Like an Intellijel re-imagining of the Cwejman S1. Very desirable.
What i thought aswell, Iwata Igarashi put it to good use! I wanted one, but theire not any longer produced.
Congratulations with Cascadia.
Such a well thought through synth, that is going to wreck minds and sound systems for years to come. Really enjoy the Arp & Roland aesthetics combined with that Intellijel touch to bring coasts and sounds together. Thank you Vanvouver massive to bring this to this to our synth needy world. An undertaking and an engineering fest no doubt. The SSL knobs too are a nice touch. Merci beaucoup!
this is super exciting! like a modern day 2600 with a bit of Easel weirdness!
love this... i got into eurorack many years ago, because i wanted an arp 2600 but couldn't afford the prices they were going for on ebay at the time.... this reminds me of a 2600 infused with features from the eurorack/buchla world..... its all come full circle....
thought the same thing re: 2600
same here sounds a like a odyssey to me @@happylittlesynth
Happy release day Intellijel 🎉 This looks like a wonderful addition to the synth world.
I love the amount of connectivity this has, and it sounds mighty fine on top of that!
Lovely looking synth and sounds amazing!
Such a well thought out instrument, love the design and layout.
Beautiful design and sounds amazing
this is what ive been waiting for. incredible
Holy sh*t Danjel, this is seriously VERY impressive!!
Beautiful design
absolutely brilliant design here.
The phaser mode of the filter sounds rad
Great design as always.
Wow! Intellijel dreams come true!
Outstanding 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I know this only dropped yesterday but I’m ready for more videos please while I wait for mine in the mail. Thank you.😂
Like a 2600 on vitamins. Awesome!
Was considering getting one of the new 2600 offerings out there, but now THIS!
looks hardcore, definitely keeping an eye on this guy.
Wonderful! Great design and sound
Hot damn! That is a thing of beauty.
I really dig sliders🤩
Looks amazing!
these seems like the perfect gateway drug into eurorack...
i'll take it!
Ah you see for me this and the 0-Coast are what I bought to *avoid* Eurorack ;)
This ticks all my boxes 📦 ✅
I’m trying to simplify my setup and the features here replaces a lot of other semi modular & eurorack I have.
Wants to simplify setup: Adds 101 patch points 😂 Exactly where I am at.
Clicked the like button after one second. :-)
Nooo why this is so great now?!?😂😫😂
I’m all over this!!
😻 finally! Very excited to see what’s coming! 🙀
Excited to see what’s in store. Maybe some kind of new delay effect that cascades??!
sick
nice :)
I am so curious for this one. Intellijel is one of the best modular developers and so a head in time..
When do we get a Buff Mixuverter 1U?
Wow, pretty impressive! Would love the opportunity to do a demo of this for you guys.
Any opinion on if this is suitable for Modular beginners?
Que sorpresa
can i buy this now? :D
1:18 Billy Thorpe 1991 intro
I promise to buy a Cascadia if you promise to release a new batch of Atlantis. Do we have a deal?
That stretched power cord makes me feel uncomfortable
can i have it
Would it work with MPC One midi to CV?
Definitely. If it works with Eurorack then it will work with Cascadia.
Hello my name is Uli from ze Germany, can i buy ze first product to show it to my engineer friendz? I am such a juge fen of yours company, i like ze quad vca ze most!!11
Hi Uli, Intellijel will happily share the circuit information with you. Hope you can make it more affordable (but you thought of this already). If possible please get rid of the synths character - as you already did splendidly on several other devices. 😂😂😂
I have no use for this but I want it bad
Kinda like my mother 32
About the same price as a Syntrx II- I know which one I’d rather have (hint: it’s the European one)
Bit on the pricy side for what it is
Same could be said for any synth tbh, free vsts can do more or less everything these days
it's great...but too expensive!
not really ...how much typically would 104hp of modules cost? somewhere around the price of this...and I'll argue this has way more functionality, sans efx.
i wish you would stop making stuff....i'm already broke because of you...now ima be in debt as well
What this
Would be much more excited to finally be able to buy a Scales module instead of a semi-modular synth I'll never need.
2190$ 😂😂😂😂 🤑🤑🤑🤑
First
A good toy, but 2300 euro?. Really?
$2149USD = $1959 euro
I hear you, man, 2300 USD is a heap of money - BUT if you take into consideration to buy an intellijel Palette case, a power supply, you put a midi 2 cv converter, a noise generator, 2 lfos, the utility modules (mult, attenuverters, burst generator, not even speaking of the ability of being able to control the pedal), the 2 filters (one can double as a LPG), the modulation busses then you will end up pretty close to this price point, and then you have to patch them yourself - So this system allows you to have an amazing standalone, or a beefed up extension in a small form factor - and instead of the cable spaghetti, the normaled connections are an another benefit. So this is kinda like a state-of-the-art system, and the sum of the parts makes it such a great package... It is worth the premium IMHO
Meh, these attempted hype builds are just annoying. Be like the greats of eurorack and synths who don't need this artificial enthusiasm builders to have their products realized as awesome. The best companies just surprise you and say here is what we've been working on and we did our work so we know you'll like it.
Actually, Intellijel has a long history of having products ready to go without a bunch of pre-hype. Cascadia seems to have taken much longer but it could be ongoing issues with sourcing parts (that has plagued many builders) 🤔
You tell em
Right, without even a hint as to what the video contains, a mere few hours of anticipation is enough to warrant the spite of snobby gearheads, as should be expected. As if the chance to show off new products with any kind of forewarning is some kind of evil marketing tactic. Please.
20 pages of speculation on modwiggler seems to suggest this method has merit. Companies wouldn't do this kind of thing if there was no point to it
lol. there is far more important things to get annoyed at than the way a company markets their *drum roll* sound making devices. go touch some grass
please stop using boring colours
Over 2k for a desktop synth. LMAO
Things are getting crazy, it is made in Canada though, a head of lettuce is $16 CAD
It would be 799, but it looks like a Cwejman so that's why the price is 3x what it should.
I mean use your ears homie. To me, the fidelity alone makes it worth the price to me. If it doesn’t to you, then what’s there to complain about? Ya know, that’s why art is ‘subjective’
Build this with a bunch of modules and you’re over 2k.
@@drainyoo1 You named another overpriced commodity.
