Arturia Minibrute: A volte un instante di quiete (Locanda Delle Fate)

Published on Feb 17, 2013 Marcus Padrini·144 videos

"Trying out this great little analogue synthesizer. It makes huge and distorted sounds but works great for smooth leads and bass sounds too.

Testando este ótimo pequeno sintetizador analógico. Ele gera sons grandiosos e distorcidos, mas também funciona bem para leads e sons de baixo mais macios.

Analogue Solutions Defibrillator Dual VCF/VCA Eurorack Module (Medic Module)

Published on Feb 17, 2013 rezfilter·40 videos

"Here's a first look at the first of several Medic Modules coming from Analogue Solutions. Featured here is the Defibrillator, a dual VCF / VCA eurorack module.

On show is a square wave from a VCO being defibrillated! Also featured is some basic modulation using an EG. More videos to follow in the coming weeks.

Rumor has it these put on quite a show at night (and under UV light).

"Phaser/Vibrato effect from the older Elektronika line. Made in USSR in the late 70's. The controls knobs are labeled: speed, resonance, distortion and sustain and the switches have 'phaser'. 'vibrato' and 'mild', 'rough' positions. The jacks on the right side are IN and OUT, and the left side features external power supply input."

Metasonix S-2000 Demo 3

Published on Feb 17, 2013 7numan7·72 videos

"This is the Metasonix S-2000 tube-synthesizer being controlled by a MakeNoise Rene modular sequencer. It's pretty much just a simple bass note sequence, where the S-2000's ribbon is gating the Rene's Y-clock input as well (the X-clock is being gated by a cycling Maths module's EOR pulse output), so that I can control when the "verse" or "part" changes. You can hear me tweaking various controls on the S-2000 to add harmonics and modulation that add some harmony and rhythm to the sequence.

Enjoy!"

WaveChaser Reaktor Ensemble

Published on Feb 17, 2013

"The WaveChaser is a sample player that uses a granular synthesis engine to play any sample with independent control over pitch and time.

Generating lush sequenced effects that scan and morph around the eight dimension windows, producing never ending midi playable wave sequencing textures.

Launchpad Step Sequencer Lauflicht 3 - Full Details


This is a follow-up to the video posted here.

"An upgrade of the step sequencer "Lauflicht" for the Novation Launchpad to the version 3 has been released. The plugin for Renoise is a moving light, multitrack and multitimbral step sequencer with 8, 16 or 32 steps, turning your Launchpad(s) into a hardware step sequencer. It was especially designed for editing beats, melodies and patterns without the mouse in order to allow an intuitive workflow in the studio or an excellent possibility to perform live.

The version 3 has two new core features: multiple Launchpads support and a new pattern load and mix mode in real time.

If more than one Launchpad is connected to the computer, the plugin will detect all Launchpads automatically and cascade them to one big hardware step sequencer. Two Launchpads will result into a hardware 16 step sequencer and four Launchpads will result into a hardware 32 step sequencer. With the different note resolution modes and unlimited tracks this setup leads to a huge level of granularity and in-depth step sequencing.

The pattern load mode enhances the variety of sequencing in live situations. While the current pattern plays, it is possible to switch between up to 16 different patterns instantly by pressing an appropriate button on the Launchpad. This makes it easy to arrange and build up a new song sequentially. To mix between patterns, or to create a seamless transition or a surprising break in your performance also a split pattern can be selected, which contains the half of the available tracks, and loaded into the currently playing pattern. In the studio or on the stage - it is really fun to switch between the patterns.

Besides these two new features, a lot of other improvements found their way into version 3. For example, presets for the control matrix can be stored to modulate up to eight different parameters of every single step of each track, like Filter-Cutoff, Delay, note value or any other controllable midi or vsti parameter.

Features:
- 8, 16 or 32 steps
- multiple Launchpads support: automatic detection of up to four Launchpads
- unlimited tracks, unlimited patterns
- set up for each track a sample, sample bank, a vst instrument or a Midi instrument of your choice
- chord mode: insert up to 3 notes in one track
- variable note resolution: 3 modes switchable (for example edit 1/2, 1/4 or 1/16 notes)
- quick clear: delete all steps of a track at once
- complete bidrectional Launchpad integration: all changes made with the Launchpad are visible in the software plugin at once and vice versa
- autoload: new patterns are loaded into the plugin/Launchpad display automatically on pattern change
- all parameters are editable during play in the plugin in real time
- keyboard mode: create melodies with a virtual keyboard in an intuitive and easy way
- powerful controller matrix: assign up to eight parameters to every single step, like filter cutoff, delay, velocity or any other controllable parameter and change them in real-time. Also the note values of the steps can be controlled.
- pattern load mode: switch between up to sixteen stored patterns in real time or even mix the tracks of two different patterns.
- easy installation of the plugin, all available Launchpads are detected automatically.

The Lauflicht Launchpad Step Sequencer 3 Plugin costs 24 Euro and is available on http://www.stepsequencer.net. It runs on runs on Windows, Mac and Linux, and there is also a new free demo version for the Launchpad available.
Requirements:
- Novation Launchpad(s)
- The DAW Renoise (free or full version) http://www.renoise.com
- Lauflicht Step Sequencer Launchpad Edition"

iOS Can Handle Multiple MIDI Devices at the Same Time


When using MIDI with the iPad you might typically think of one MIDI device either via the camera connection kit or a class compliant MIDI device. It turns out with the connection kit and a USB hub the iPad can actually support multiple MIDI devices at the same time. See the update in this post from David Warman for what he currently has set up.
