Darklight IIx

Your time has come

Darklight IIx is the latest UVI instrument, inspired by one of the most mythical Computer Music Instrument of the 80s.
Costing upwards of $100 000, the dream machine of the 80's was unattainable by most. Used by countless prominent artists including: Peter Gabriel, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Kate Bush, Herbie Hancock, Jean Michel Jarre, Thomas Dolby and many more, it remains a highly regarded and sought after instrument.

Introducing UVI Darklight IIx

We took our obsession to the next level, creating a complete set of instruments, sounds and sonic tools deeply inspired by the original digital monster. A unique, hybrid process of exhaustive multi-sampling, analysis, and advanced scripts for audio processing allowed us to not only capture the original character of this machine but to enhance its ability with a host of today’s most powerful analog modeled filters, LFOs, envelopes and effects--packaged beautifully in an old-school interface.

Darklight IIx offers several "Pages", each an instrument on its own:
