We love how much care he puts into making his sounds feel colorful and expressive, and how naturally he blends synths with pianos and other acoustic instruments.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Loop and Layer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Svensson keeps track of the notes you play, so you don\u2019t have to hit record before you start. If you like what you just played, hit Loop to capture it.<\/p>\n<p>The four sound categories are also separate parts that can be looped individually. Loops can be as long as you want, and you can add as many layers as you want.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Build Quality<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Svensson has a metal body with solid oak sides and is manufactured in Germany. It uses a Fatar keyboard with 49 semi-weighted, velocity-sensitive keys.<\/p>\n<p>The built-in speaker is custom-made by Swedish speaker designer <strong>Ingvar \u00d6hman<\/strong>. It&#8217;s surprisingly loud and lets you play so other people can hear without additional gear. Auxy says it&#8217;s &#8220;perfect for living room jams.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Connections:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sustain pedal<\/li>\n<li>Stereo line out<\/li>\n<li>Headphones<\/li>\n<li>USB-A for class-compliant audio and MIDI<\/li>\n<li>USB-C for power and data<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Pricing and Availability:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Auxy says they expect pre-orders for the <strong>Svensson 49<\/strong> to start &#8216;soon&#8217;, with pricing expected to be around 899 EUR \/ 999 USD.
