GS Apollo I is an analog monophonic synthesizer featuring subtractive synthesis. The sound generation is entirely analog. It has two voltage controlled oscillators (VCO), a mixer, a voltage controlled filter and a voltage controlled amplifier (VCA). The control signals are digitally generated by a microcontroller, which is capable of processing three low frequency oscillators (LFO) and two ADSR envelopes (EG).
The GS Apollo I interface was designed to be simple an intuitive. It has 18 knobs and 3 push buttons. It allows the generation of a great variety of sounds.

*From the panel it is only possible to control both envelopes simultaneously.
To control them independently, the corresponding MIDI CC must be used.
**Only one LFO is controllable from the panel. To access the other LFOs, the corresponding MIDI CC must be used.
