Dreadbox Artemis: The 6-Voice Sinevibes Collab Is Now Available!
Join the hunt with Dreadbox Artemis, a six-voice tabletop analog synthesizer with effects from algorithm powerhouse, Sinevibes. Preorder it now!
Dreadbox Artemis
Can we even call Dreadbox a boutique manufacturer these days? With more than 10 years now under their collective belt now, the company has released a steady stream of incredible synthesizers, Eurorack modules and effects units since forming back in 2012. You can now add Artemis to the Greek company’s list of products.
In keeping with the mythology naming scheme, Artemis the synth is named after Artemis the goddess of the hunt. And while you may have been hunting for this one, you can call off the hounds as it’s now available at Thomann.
Six-Voice Polyphonic Power
Dreadbox Artemis is a six-voice polyphonic analog synth in a tabletop format. It sports two luscious Dreadbox oscillators with infinitely variable wave shaping, sync, frequency modulation and pulse width. It also offers a sub oscillator and noise generator.
In the filter section, Artemis offers a switchable 12- and 24db/Oct resonant lowpass filter with keyboard tracking, drive, and FM courtesy the oscillator or noise. Not one to skimp on filters, Artemis also has a resonant highpass filter.
Modulation and More
Dreadbox Artemis is well-apportioned on the modulation front as well, with two ADSR envelopes – one for the VA and the other for the lowpass filter – while the two LFOs feature BPM sync and fade in. Clever.
Sinevibes Effects, More
You may remember the Typhon, Dreadbox’s monophonic collaboration with software effects company, Sinevibes. Artemis is something of a polyphonic upgrade from the Typhon, and again features some delicious algorithms from Sinevibes.
Dreadbox Artemis offers four effects that you can use simultaneously: distortion/bit crush, modulation effects including chorus and ensemble, delay, and reverb.
A polyphonic sequencer, arpeggiator and polyphonic aftertouch round out the Artemis.
Price and Availability
Artemis looks like another great instrument from Dreadbox. Note that some images on retailers show wood panels connected to Artemis. These are not included and will be made available later as optional accessories.
Dreadbox Artemis is available now from Thomann*.

Is it delivered with or without the wood panels?
That’s a good question. Dreadbox doesn’t have it up on their site yet and the store listings don’t say, although they do show it with the wood panels. So I would guess… yes?
I stand corrected! I reached out to Dreadbox and the panels will be an optional accessory available at a later date. I updated the story to reflect this new info. Thanks for the question!
Looks better without the wood imo
