Five synths share one interface language without sharing one architecture. Each page explains the sound, the controls, the current release status, and the hardware the design is modelled on: the Roland SH-101, SH-2, TB-303, JUNO-106, and System-100.

Those names identify references, nothing else. Roland, SH-101, SH-2, TB-303, JUNO-106, and System-100 are trademarks of Roland Corporation. MXM is an independent project and is not affiliated with, authorised by, sponsored by, or endorsed by Roland Corporation.
