Our take on the Dreadbox Erebus Reissue Paraphonic Analog Synthesizer

The Erebus Reissue is a desktop paraphonic analog synth from Greek maker Dreadbox, a revival of its early semi-modular two-oscillator design. It pairs two VCOs with a creamy 24 dB/oct low-pass filter, an analog echo, and a small patch bay, so it can play two notes at once or be patched into a larger modular rig. It suits players who want fat, hands-on analog tone and don't mind a compact keyboard-less box. Against modern paraphonic rivals it is simpler and more characterful, with fewer voices and no presets, but its filter and delay give it a sound many users prefer to cleaner digital options.

What reviewers say

Owners and reviewers praise the Erebus for its thick analog sound, musical filter and useful built-in echo, calling it one of the better-value paraphonic analogs. Criticism centers on the lack of presets, the two-voice limit and the sparse patch bay.

What people mention
  • SoundPraisedOwners describe a fat, creamy analog voice that sits well in mixes.
  • FilterPraisedThe resonant low-pass is called musical and hard to make sound bad.
  • EchoPraisedThe built-in analog delay is treated as a real effect, not a gimmick.
  • PresetsCriticisedPlayers miss patch memory and have to recreate sounds by hand.
  • PolyphonyMixedTwo-note paraphony is useful but limits chord playing.
  • Patch bayMixedThe patch points add flexibility, though some want more of them.

Questions and answers

Is the Erebus Reissue truly paraphonic?
Yes. It plays two notes at once, each voice sharing the same filter and envelope, so it is paraphonic rather than fully polyphonic.
Does it have a keyboard or speakers?
No. It is a desktop module, so you need a MIDI keyboard, sequencer or CV source and an amp or headphones.
Can I save my sounds?
No. There is no patch memory, so sounds are set by hand on the panel and patch bay.
How does it compare with the original Erebus?
The Reissue brings back the original two-oscillator design with the analog echo and a compact patch bay, aimed at players who want that early Dreadbox character.
Can it connect to a modular system?
Yes. The patch bay accepts and sends CV and gate signals, so it can interact with Eurorack and other modular gear.
What is in the box?
Expect the synth unit and a power supply; check the listing for the exact included cables and adapter type.
