Yellowjacket

Classic Wasp Sound Reinvented

Yellowjacket is Cherry Audio’s bold tribute to the classic Wasp synth from 1978, nailing its iconic buzz and quirky filter while pushing it way further. Inspired by EDP’s pioneering spirit, it adds polyphony, unison, an upgraded filter, speaker emulation, and a next-gen arpeggiator with probability and humanise controls.

The signature yellow-black design returns with touch-sensitive keys, scale and transpose options, and advanced aftertouch. And the wildest twist? A multi-voice mode inspired by EDP’s pre-MIDI chaining — stacking mini-synths for chords, arp patterns, and evolving stereo textures.
