Summer may be over, but there’s no reason to feel so blue about it. In fact, Reverb’s End of Summer Sales Event is here to tackle the Autumn chill, serving up some hot deals across plugins, synths, and keyboards.

While the sale offers up a huge collection of deals from the likes of Qu-Bit Electronix, Electro-Harmonix, WMD and more, M-Vave in particular has discounted a wide selection of its synths and MIDI controllers. A standout comes in the form of M-Vave’s FM-1, the brand’s compact, battery-powered synth inspired by the Yamaha DX7. This tiny 27-key polyphonic synth also comes with a built-in FX engine, 128 factory tones, a seven-mode arpeggiator and a 16-step sequencer – and it’s currently 10%, meaning you can get a pocket-sized creative powerhouse for just £74.97.

M-Vave has a slew of its compact, travel-friendly gear for sale. Elsewhere, you’ll find the M-Vave SK-16 SMC-PAD Pocket Pad, a small MIDI controller with 16 backlit pads that have velocity sensing and aftertouch abilities. That’ll set you back by £37.34, a 10% drop from the usual £41.48 price. Of course, there’s also a larger alternative if you’re willing to size up to the SMC-PAD Launch Pad, which adds eight knobs and 10 assignable buttons for added versatility. That’s also 10% off, costing £57.91.

As for MIDI keyboards, M-Vave also serves up a mini and full-sized option, both with USB and wireless connectivity. The 25-key SMK-25 Mini comes in at £56.14, a 20% drop from its usual £70.18 pricetag. On the other hand, the more advanced SMK-37 PRO offers up 37 keys, with an additional 16 RGB pads and eight knobs. This option will set you back by £139.51, dropping 10% from its typical price of £155.02.

Elsewhere, Qu-Bit Electronix offers up a great deal on its Scanned. We awarded this wavetable oscillator a massive 10/10 back in 2019, so this one is definitely worth some consideration – and, with its 10% discount, the £271.89 price is pretty tempting.

Reverb has also sliced the price of Machine Room’s Prodigy Dual VCO, a hand-built dual VCO based on the Moog Prodigy. This bit of kid takes the charm of the original Moog and adds in a slew of modern perks, including cross modulation between its pair of oscillators. And, if that doesn’t sound enticing enough, it’s also 10% off, meaning it’s currently £243.87 instead of £270.97.

Of course, there are also a slew of unique plugins to pick through. One of the quirkiest that we’ve found is Sibilla by Clatters Machines, a DSP digital stereo oscillator and drone machine inspired by mountainous regions of Italy. In fact, it’s literally named after an Italian mountain, Monte Sibilla! If you’re keep to inject some natural awe into your music and capture the feeling of some rugged, towering landscapes, then this could be the oscillator for you. This one costs £292.64, dropped down from its usual price of £325.16.
