SPECIFICATIONS

Below is a concise overview of Monolit’s core specifications and capabilities, outlining the key features and technical characteristics of the device.

ENCLOSURE: The casing and front panel are precision-machined from a single piece of aluminum.

DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT: 230x72x15mm, 350g

FILTERS: Each channel features analog low pass and high pass filtering, controlled by a single knob with a center detent.

DRIVE: Concrete is equipped with multiple banks, each allowing a user loaded effect, including various types of drive, saturation, and distortion.

CHARACTER: Depending on the loaded engine, the character of the effect shifts and takes on a different role.

MIDI: All Concrete parameters can be controlled via MIDI over USB or TRS.

CONNECTIVITY: Stereo audio input and output via TRS, MIDI input via TRS, and USB-C input and output for power and computer connection.

SYNC MODE: You can set different configurations for each of the two channels or synchronize them for stereo signal processing.

 

... Concrete is currently in late stage prototyping and testing. Further details and final specifications will be revealed at the official release. Every decision is being refined with care to deliver a tool of lasting value.

CONCRETE is a stereo hybrid effects processor that combines digital sound engines with an analog signal path, designed for deep sound shaping and hands on control. It brings together distortion, saturation, filtering, and spatial processing in a single focused instrument for studio and live use.

 

Each channel can operate independently or in linked stereo mode, allowing precise control or expressive experimentation. Digital engines handle character, texture, and modulation, while the analog filter shape the sound physically, adding weight, movement, and depth that responds naturally to performance.

 

CONCRETE is built as an open and evolving system. Effect engines can be updated and expanded over time, letting the device grow with your music and adapt to different styles, setups, and workflows. MIDI over USB and TRS allows easy integration into modern and classic setups alike.

 

Rather than forcing a fixed workflow, CONCRETE encourages exploration. It works equally well as a subtle tone shaper, a creative effects unit, or a performance instrument. The more time you spend with it, the more it reveals, becoming a personal tool shaped by how you listen, play, and experiment.

THE FINAL STAGE

Concrete is a compact desktop instrument combining analog sound shaping, flexible routing, and precise digital control for studio and live performance environments.

FILTER

Analog filter · Low pass · High pass

An analog filter with unified low pass and high pass control, designed as a primary sound shaping stage rather than a secondary effect. A single movement radically shifts the character of the signal, from dense and weighty to sharply filtered and tense. The filter remains stable and musical at extreme settings, enters resonance naturally, and maintains a controlled, confident response without compromise.

MIDI modulation allows the filter to act as an expressive instrument within sequencers, automation, and live performance setups.

DRIVE

Tube · Tape · Fold

DRIVE combines three distortion engines: tube saturation, tape saturation, and fold distortion. Each mode has its own character and dynamic response, ranging from subtle harmonic density to aggressive waveform shaping.

 

The DRIVE block is designed as an expandable system. Additional engines will be introduced over time, allowing the instrument’s character to be shaped freely, from warm vintage saturation to hard, modern distortion.

CONTROL

TRS MIDI · USB C · Flexible mapping

CONTROL defines how the instrument connects and adapts to your setup. TRS MIDI input and USB C provide full access to MIDI mapping, allowing any parameter to be assigned quickly and directly without relying on deep menus.

 

The system is built for fast reconfiguration. Controls can be remapped on the fly, making it easy to integrate the device with different instruments, workflows, and performance setups while staying focused on the music rather than the interface.

SYNC

Dual channels · Link 

Each channel can be controlled independently or linked together to operate as a single stereo unit.

WORKFLOW

Studio · Performance · Final stage

Concrete is a desktop instrument for studio and live use that goes beyond a traditional effects processor. It can operate as a two channel summing stage with dense, high quality sound and a clear analog character, or function as an audio interface for laptop based performances where a compact setup still demands serious output.

 

Flexible effect routing, a master limiter, and precise input and output level control make Concrete a confident final stage in any signal chain. It brings small setups together, making them louder, tighter, and more expressive by combining analog weight with digital precision.
