The compact housing of the ELZ_1 houses several sound generators: FM synthesis, an 8-bit wave memory synth with morphing function, the DNA Explorer for analyzing and modifying your own audio material, the Sand Flute noise engine, and the SiGRINDER granular synthesizer.

The expressive possibilities of this compact synthesizer are endless, and even complex sounds can be created easily via the intuitive user interface. Especially on the road, the ELZ_1 is an ingenious addition to your setup. On stage, it is an intuitive synthesizer that supports creative moments without much effort due to the built-in speaker, for example, even in the hotel.
