NAMM 2019: Dubreq has announced the latest generation of Stylophone, the GEN R-8. Two years on from the announcement of the GEN X-1
Dubbed the “ultimate Stylophone”, the GEN R-8 seems to be a far more fully formed instrument than the X-1 and a logical progression from the S2.
In a similar form-factor to the S2, the R-8 features a three-octave touch keyboard that Dubreq describes as “supersensitive”, but with the added bonus of 19 CV/Gate patch points. Check out the full list of features below.

- Full analogue signal path
- Steel enclosure
- Dual VCOs with Saw, Square and PWM (oscillator 1)
- Sub oscillators and Subsub oscillators for room shaking bass
- Unique British design 12dB VCF with Low pass, High pass, Band pass and wide Notch
- Fast and punchy envelope
- Supersensitive three-octave touch keyboard
- Glide and Modulation keys for expressive performance control
- Eight waveform LFO with S&H and One-shot feature
- 19 CV/Gate patch points for advanced modular patching
