Soniccouture Releases Vibraphone Virtual Instrument

"Sampled instrument designers have always struggled with the Vibraphone – the ‘snapshot’ nature of sampling doesn’t really suit it at all; if you sample the single notes, then each notes tremolo will be out of time with the next, and of course the speed will be fixed at one rate anyway. Sometimes people go ahead and sample it anyway, and offer it out of sync with a choice of rates ( fast, medium, slow), but that tends to sound pretty wrong. The more common ‘workstation’ approach was always to simply switch the motor to off on the Vibraphone, record it static, then fake the tremolo in the synth/sampler using an LFO with a bit of filter and amplitude modulation. Which, in the context of workstation sounds, doesn’t do too bad a job, in that ‘Mock-Tudor’ style that workstation sounds have.

But about a year or 18 months ago, Dan hit on an idea – whether in the bath, I know not – and like many breakthrough ideas, it was beautiful in its simplicity..."

MOTM-700 Dual 2:1 Voltage-Controller Router 5U module

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

This one is from John L Rice.

"The MOTM-700 is a dual bi-directional SPDT switch that is switched/toggled when an input control voltage exceeds a trip-point set by a panel knob. Special circuitry handles routing of audio (cross-fading VCAs) or control voltage (fast, low-offset switches).

This is an awesome switch for your modular synthesizer! I love switchers and at one point I realized I had 6 different ones so I ended up moving half of them out of my system to make room for other types of modules. I wish I could hang onto this and the other modules I'm selling but, I need to pay bills.

This was constructed from the original high quality Synth Tech parts and currently this module doesn't appear to be available assembled or in kit form from any one.

This module requires a clean +-15 VDC power supply and a case to mount it in, neither are supplied. A power cable and mounting screws are supplied though..."

MOTM-485 GX-1 VCF Filter for 5U Modular Synthesizer

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

This one is from John L Rice.

"This is a great filter in excellent shape! It's not your typical filter though so if you are looking to create "phat Moog bass lines", this probably isn't what you want. ;-) But if you want to create a variety of sounds from beautiful mellow lead lines to crazy chaotic sound effects, this can do it!

This is constructed from the original high quality Synth Tech parts and no longer available directly from Synth Tech. Please note that this module requires a clean power supply of +-15 DC and some sort of case to mount it in, neither of which are included. A power cable and mounting screws are supplied though."

Here are two videos I made over the years that feature the MOTM-485:

Oakley MultiMix 'Stooge' mixer for 5U modular

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

This one is from John L Rice.

"This is a great mixer in excellent shape! I built this one myself and modified it by adding toggle switches to mute the individual outputs. This is the issue/version #4 PCB, has a BrideChamber front panel and was built up as the most popular 'Stooge' version which uses three reversible attenuators for the inputs and three output jacks so this module can be used as a 3 to 1 mixer, a 2 to 1 mixer + a single attenuator or three single attenuators. Very versatile!

Note that the first three pictures are from 2009 when I had just finished building the module. It is still in almost as good of shape but some of the black is worn off around the mounting holes, which can't be seen when the module is mounted in a modular case, and the top knob has a slight scratch in it. I'll try to post a recent picture soon.

This module requires a clean +-15 VDC power supply and a case to mount it in, neither are supplied. A power cable and mounting screws are supplied though."

Folktek Euphonos Field

via Folktek

"The housing is made of oak and each panel is meticulously done in the style of the Impossible Box - labeled and framed is brass. The keys, lamps and switches for each panel are hand built and the provided cables are all cloth covered.

The Sound Field 2 features touch based synthesis, synth trigger section, thick reverberation, filteration, delay and looping and two sequencers. All patching can be done on board with included patch cables and all modules have 1/4" ins and outs to send to/from external gear. The sound patching can be arranged however the player likes. ie; synthesis > reverb >delay/loop >filter. Each panel has Control Voltage to be accepted from the sequencers or from any external CV covering the synth pitch, synth triggering, filter frequency, on/off of reverb or delay, delay time and loop capture. Loops can be captured in time with the sequencers (which can be synchronized to eachother optionally or synched to external clocks) and both the delay and reverb decay when turned off..."

New Doepfer A-100PB Mini Case

"Probably from December 2013 the "small brother" of the monster base A-100PMB will be available. The new case A-100PB is very similar to the A-100PMB but has only half the width (2 x 84 HP for installation of modules). The suitcase versions A-100P6 or A-100P9 can be positioned on top of the A-100PB because the width of the A-100PB is a bit more than the width of A-100P6/P9 and the footprint of the A-100PB is adapted to the depth of A-100P6/P9. A-100PB is equipped with one power supply (1200mA) and two bus boards. The bus boards are located in the rear area (even those for the modules that are mounted in the front row). This was necessary to take advantage of the full height of the front area for installation of A-100 modules. The max. depth for modules in the front row is ~70 mm.
The price of the A-100PB will be about Euro 550 (without modules)."

Eurorack noise nightmare

Published on Oct 18, 2013 Introvertmusic·33 videos

"Not the most musical upload I've done, but I'm sure some of you out there might find it interesting.

This is just some excessively noisy patch that I found myself in the other night. Really a fun patch.

Make Noise Phonogene is being mangled and reprocessed by the Mungo Enterprises g0 giving an almost dual battling Phonogene effect. Then the mangled scraps of the g0 are being processed by the Echophon. High pitched wave table sounds are from The Harvestman Piston Honda MK1. There is other weirdness going on too... but thats the basic idea.

Stereo comes in at the end when I start some panning on the Cwejman MX4S. Wish I had done that for the whole clip... sorry :)

"Spektro Komplex now comes bundled with a copy of the Spektro StepFilter device StepFilter is a 24 db/oct ladder filter that comes with a built-in step sequencer. The step sequencer can be used to trigger decay envelopes for Strike (cutoff) and Accent (cutoff and resonance). Great for creating some acid / 303 style basslines."

"Around 1983-84 Sequential Circuits, in order to break into the Japanese market, shipped the Curtis SENTE (CEM 3394) chip and the firmware for the Sequential Six-Trak to an other Japanese manufacturer. It was their plan to have that that manufactuer design a synthesizer more targeted at the Japanese buyer. This Japanese company created an 8-voice bi-timbral version of the Six-Trak. They added a 5-octave, 61-note (C-C) keyboard to it and sold it in Japan, calling it the Pro-8. Sequential, liking what the Japanese manufacturer had done with their design and worrying that they might market their synth with one of their competitors (ie. Korg), asked for some design changes and a name change, and sold the Japanese-made synth as the Split-8..."

THE VOICE OF SATURN VCF FILTER Eurorack Module

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"The Voice of Saturn Filter is a Voltage Controlled low-pass filter based around a CEM 3372 IC. It accepts two inputs that have independent VCA's as well as a final output VCA. Both cutoff and resonance are voltage controllable.

CEM3372 filter IC (4-pole resonant low-pass filter) is the same chips found in the filters of such analog classics as the Sequential Circuits Prophet 600, Prophet T8 and Oberheim Xpander. One very cool feature of the CEM series filter chips is that as the resonance is turned up, the volume level does not drop as dramatically (as it does in other analogs, including the famous Moog Ladder Filter)"

New Mini Arturia Synth In the Works

Arturi has posted teasers for what appears to be a new small hardware synth.
Update: Pics of a Micro-Brute here.

”I really love the sound of the original , and IT's got that character and can be even wilder. You can get all kinds of crazy and musical interactions going on with other analog gear and drum machines. Combine the two together and you're rocking…”
Adrian Utley
(Portishead)

”IT takes me back to the joy I felt when I pushed that first key and a saw wave spoke back to me. IT allows for more than 100% values of such things as keyboard tracking. IT melds the best in a compact little powerhouse.” Terry Lawless
(U2 and P!NK)

”Once again Arturia has given me the best of both worlds with IT. It's blowing minds at both my recordings session and in concert. The perfect compliment to my already diverse rig.” Roger Joseph Manning Jr
(The Moog CookBook, Jellyfish,
Imperial Drag, Beck)

”So Just when you think Arturia can't be any more practical than the Mini Brute. They bust you in the head with THIS.” Keith Shocklee
(Public Enemy)

”For me, a Synthesizer that has no presets is an adventure every time. IT is a recipe for audio joy. IT soon becomes a real electronic instrument, that develops with your knowledge and expertise” Chris Cross
(Ultravox)

”The small form factor is disproportionate to the massive sound you can get out of IT. Having used many Arturia soft synths, this is a great piece to transition from a laptop. Turn the switch and go.” Sandra Vu
(Dum Dum Girls, SISU)

”Big, ballsy sound! Arturia has another sonic monster on its hands!” André Bowman
(Will.I.Am)

”It's SMALL GIANT!
I love it!!” Hideki Matsutake
