The Antonus 3620 is here!
Web launch, official teaser & shipping updates
Dear Friends,
We hope you are doing well! If you are receiving this email, it’s because you are part of our passionate journey—you have ordered an Antonus 3620! We are thrilled to have you with us on this adventure; it has been two emotion-packed years in the making.
As many of you know, developing an instrument like the 3620 keyboard is no small feat. Above all, our goal was not merely to replicate the classic ARP 3620, but to draw inspiration from its iconic heritage and adapt it to the demands of modern setups. As a result, you will receive a truly fascinating instrument that expands well beyond its original potential.
We are proud to introduce the Antonus 3620—a sophisticated keyboard, sequencer, and CV/MIDI controller inspired by the legendary ARP 3620. Designed to be an expressive, powerful, logical, and intuitive tool, it goes further than the original by incorporating a wealth of new features and enhanced connectivity, capable of interacting simultaneously with both voltage-controlled analog systems and modern MIDI devices.
Created for anyone seeking a professional-grade controller with exceptional aesthetics and craftsmanship, it features high-quality, full-sized keys working seamlessly across both CV and MIDI domains.
Web Launch & Official Teaser link
Following this official reveal, we are excited to announce that the full product page for the keyboard is now live on our website! You can explore all its features, specs, and details in depth our 3620 page.
That’s not all—we are also celebrating a launch! Today marks the official release of our video teaser, and we couldn’t be happier. We want to express our deepest gratitude to the entire team who made this project possible, from technical execution to creative direction.
The guest artist Fer Aleman, a singer-songwriter and musician from Mendoza, Argentina, now based in Barcelona. Thank you, Fer, for being the face of this project—your artistic sensitivity helped showcase the 3620 in all its glory!
A little bit more about Fer:
Composer and producer based in Barcelona. Her music blends analogue and modular synthesis, ethereal voice, and Andean roots into immersive, ritual-driven performances. For her, sound is something to be felt rather than reasoned — each set is minimal yet expansive, where silence and rhythm become sacred space.
She has released six albums and performed at festivals such as Fusion (Germany), MIRA (Spain), and SPOT (Denmark). Selected by British Council & Mutek Spain (#WeAreEquals) and Bienal Arte Joven, she also co-founded Las Pibas Producen, a platform amplifying women and gender-diverse music producers.She is currently presenting NORTE, a sensorial live show combining modular synthesis, visual art, and a distinctive electronic spirituality.
A huge thanks to the crew:

Behind the Scenes at Antonus
Last but certainly not least: we are about to start delivering the very first units, and we couldn’t be more thrilled!
We’d also like to share a bit more about who we are behind Antonus. We are a small, independent team handcrafting analog synthesizers, deeply inspired by the legacy of ARP. Our core team consists of four dedicated people:
- Toni Gutierrez: Founder & CEO, leading technical engineering, hardware design, calibration, and overall development.
- Xinaxina: Our “Tolex Queen,” who meticulously crafts all of our beautiful enclosures.
- Mica Villafañe: Audiovisual communicator, photographer, filmmaker, and expert assembly/soldering technician.
- Ro Cimmino (writing to you today): Head of communication, brand voice, and creative management.
In truth, we all wear many hats and combine our skills to power Antonus. Sound design and craftsmanship are our true passions, and we invite you to connect with us further through our website and social channels.
This journey is just getting started, and we’re honored to have you with us!
Warm regards,
