Synthesizer Accessories: What to Know

Synthesizer accessories are the protective gear, connectivity tools, and expansion hardware that keep your synths safe and functional. Dust covers shield expensive electronics from studio grime and transport damage. Polyphonic aftertouch kits add expressive control to synths that shipped without it. Breath controllers and expression pedals give you hands-free modulation. Power supplies replace lost or failed originals. These aren't glamorous purchases, but they're the difference between a synth that stays in working condition and one that collects dust or breaks down on the road.

What to Look For

Dust covers need precise fitment. Decksaver makes molded polycarbonate shells for specific synth models. Generic covers don't protect the knobs and sliders properly. Check the exact model compatibility before buying. For expression pedals and breath controllers, verify MIDI or CV compatibility with your synth. Some gear uses proprietary connections. Polyphonic aftertouch retrofit kits require installation and calibration. You're opening the synth and placing sensors under the keybed. If you're not comfortable with that level of DIY, factor in tech labor. Replacement power supplies must match voltage and amperage exactly. Using the wrong adapter can fry your synth. Check the barrel size and polarity too. When buying cables or adapters, know what formats your synth actually uses: MIDI DIN, USB, CV/gate, or proprietary digital connections.

Top Brands

Decksaver dominates protective covers with model-specific designs for nearly every major synth. Arturia and Roland make first-party accessories like expression pedals and breath controllers designed for their own ecosystems.
