Percussa SSP Kickstarter Granular Processor V1 Demo


PERCUSSA
Published on Aug 31, 2017

You might remember the image posted earlier today. Here's a demo video showcasing the Percussa SSP's granular processor.

"Demo video of Granular processor for percussa SSP Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...). In the video we go into detail about the parameters as well as show the possibilities of modulating the processor using LFOs. We explore what can be done with a simple "hallelujah" choir sample and one instance of our granular processor. You can run 16 DSP modules in parallel on 4 processor cores at the moment, and in this demo we turn up the number of grains to about 800. So a lot of processing power is available and paired with the high end AKM ADCs/DACs this gives you a tremendous amount of creative potential. The sample used is Polyphonic HALLELUJAH (2x) by Capella Ducis / klankbeeld on Freesound.org, credit at the end of the video."

Pyxis Modulation Controller for ARP Odyssey & Other Analog Synths


New England Analog Archives
Published on Aug 31, 2017

"The Pyxis was originally designed to be an aftertouch controller for the ARP Odyssey. It can modulate pitch, filter cutoff, and volume using a linear CV or the internal Pyxis LFO. The unit can also be used with any MIDI to CV converter that generates an aftertouch CV, mod wheel CV, or other MIDI CC CV. This allows for modulation data to be sequenced with MIDI, which is a useful feature when sequencing any analog synth.
The unit shown in this video ha a MIDI jack in the rear, which is how the MIDI controller keyboard is playing notes. The mod wheel on the MIDI keyboard is generating a 0-10V CV by means of a MIDI to CV converter. This signal is fed to the odyssey via an 1/8th inch jack on the rear of the unit. This Odyssey also has aftertouch built into the keyboard, which is not demonstrated in this video."

"A version of the Minitmoog for budding synthesists from the early seventies. The Satellite is shaped after the organ-type synthesizers from its era. Although cased in a nice looking wood case the Satellite boasts little features. It's a single-vco monophonic preset synthesizer. Preset sounds include brass, reeds, strings, bell, and the far-out new lunar sound. The 37-note keyboard is slim and presets are selected from the clunky flip-switches just below the keyboard. Left hand performance controls offer modulation, pitch bend and filter sweeps. Great collector's item. It has been used by Vangelis."

New Percussa SSP Granular Processor Pic & Kickstarter Reminder


The image to the left was added yesterday's post here. I thought I'd put a new post up to make sure no one missed it.

What you are seeing is the granular synth engine.  The dots on the screen represent the loaded sample, and the red section is the portion being heard and manipulated.  Per yesterday's post, you can find some demos of the granular engine here.

Update: some additional info via Percussa: "The section that is selected on the screen is the region from which grains are picked. The grains are then triggered at the rate set by the coarse/fine frequency. So it's not actually looping that region, in granular synthesis you generate small snippets of audio (50ms long for example) and then those are triggered at a certain rate and windowed and mixed together."

PCB Design

Wave G Monophonic Synthesizer

Printed circuit board version 3 is been used in this synthesizer at the moment. This version works according to design expectations and the production board if the goal is reached, number 4, will be based on this but with a number of minor improvements, such as slight repositioning of the mounting holes and potentiometers and switches - to line up better with the metal enclosure.I've also added a new digital to analog convertor circuit which provides more stable and accurate output voltages for the frequency control voltage output.

Step Sequencer

Version 2 of the PCB board operates within design parameters and the only additional modifications needed will be to the positioning of the controls and adjustment to the number of function LED's.

The Enclosure

The Wave G enclosure has already been designed with computer aided design software and a production prototype has been built, by the manufacturer - and more can be mass produced, when required. It's the unit featured in the demonstration video and enclosed photographs - made from strong mild steel and has a powder coated black and white finish.

Currently we are using a 3D printed plastic case for the sequencer, and that's offered in the reward. A metal enclosure, at the time of writing has not been manufactured but if the project goal is reached, a mild steel case will be manufactured and offered as a reward for a small increase in price.

Power Supply

The buyer of the WaveG/Step Sequencer system will need to purchase or acquire 2 external 12 Volt DC (Direct Current), at least 500mA (milliamp) - 1 ampere power supply adaptor, which are regulated. One for the synthesizer, the other for the sequencer."

Servando Barreiro
Published on Aug 30, 2017

Teenage Engineering OP-1 & axoloti software environment used to program a quad granular synth plus low-pass / hi-pass filter.

Update: some additional info on Axoloti via Servando:

"Axoloti It’s a standalone board in which you can program audio effects, synthesizers, midi/cv sequencers and almost any low latency / high quality (24/48) audio gadget you can imagine.

To program the chip you use a graphical programming environment that resembles in a way to puredata / reaktor or a virtual modular synthesizer. This board it’s open-hardware / Open-source, so there are lots of ready made amazing synths & effects to play around with.

the axoloti patch I’m running in this video it’s a 'performance granular synthesizer'. It does Live sampling via audio input and has four different granulators with different characteristics (static / dynamic) and additional lowpass / hipass filters to enhance even more the sonic difference between the granulators. This patch done in 1 Hr was inspired by some vaporware (just a 3d render) granular synth. For more info you can visit www.axoloti.com"

Historical Moog Modular Synthesizer "Performance" From 1969

Leonard Bernstein: Young People's Concerts Vol. 2 | Bach Transmogrified

Marius Buia
Published on Oct 9, 2015

"Original Broadcast: April 27, 1969"

Comes in after 15:10. Switched on Bach gets a mention. Unfortunately the "performance" is moor of a "pose" with a pre-recording on tape by Walter Sear. Still fun to watch, especially the kids' reactions, or lack thereof for some. Note the system is powered on, as you can see the sequencers are running. Also, for some context, the Minimoog wouldn't be released until a year later in 1970.

Update: video of the Moog performance:

This one is in via @auralhistories

"Young People's Concert: 'Bach Transmogrified'
with the New York Philharmonic
Written and conducted by Leonard Bernstein

Bernstein discusses different transmogrifications or treatments of Bach's works. After an organ recital of the Little Fugue, guest conductor Leopold Stokowski conducts his own transcription of the fugue for symphony orchestra. Other transmogrifications include Foss' Phorion and a version of the Brandenburg Concerto No. 5 performed by the New York Rock and Roll Ensemble.

In this excerpt, Bernstein discusses the Bach Little Fugue in G Minor heard on the Moog Synthesizer.

Dave Smith Instruments In the Spotlight with HAN LUIS CERA (MUTANT-THOUGHTS) and the Tempest


The latest Dave Smith Instruments "In the Spotlight" series features HAN LUIS CERA (MUTANT-THOUGHTS) and the Tempest.

"Mutant-Thoughts is an experimental alternative synth-rock band formed by Han Luis Cera (vocals and synths), Joshua Lennox-Hilton (bass and backing vocals) and Tom Pearmain (drums), with an electronic, eclectic, eerie vibe, and strong rhythms, as well as beautiful melodies. On a constant search for new sounds, grooves, harmonies and textures, Mutant-Thoughts have worked really hard on building original and interesting sound. Using the Poly Evolver and Tempest, together with bass and drums, this band is able to transform our surroundings into a completely new reality which is perceived with detail in the music. They released their first album with electronic versions of what they do live, and now they are releasing their first studio EP on the 7th of September in the UK and will be released on BandCamp."

New Zeeon Synth from BeepStreet Released for iPad


ZEEON Synth by BeepStreet - Alba Ecstasy quick demo
Alba Ecstasy
Published on Aug 30, 2017


iTunes: Zeeon synth - BeepStreet

"Zeeon is a virtual analog synthesizer, powered by an advanced analog circuit modelling engine. We spent a lot of time analysing iconic analog synths, both vintage and modern, to find out which parts of the circuit contribute most to their specific character. We used this knowledge to create a unique synth, with focus on what’s most important - the pure, organic and detailed sound. Many analog synth emulations sound dull. Not Zeeon. We take care of the entire spectrum range from deep lows to sweet highs. All audio and modulation signals are processed at 176 KHz (4x oversampling).

Full manual and audio demos available at the BeepStreet website.

Features

• Audio Unit v3 and standalone application with a simple polyphonic step sequencer

• 2 oscillators with continuously variable waveforms, hard-sync and sub-oscillator. Carefully simulated analog drift and PSU influence.

• Filter: 3 models available: Transistor ladder low pass, OTA cascade low pass and State Variable Filter with continuously variable LP-HP + BP mode.

• 2 low frequency oscillators and envelope generators per voice.

• Overdrive: diode clipper and transistor saturation, pre and post filter.

• Up to 2 layers per voice. Layers can modulate each other.

• Powerful modulation matrix offering self-modulation and cross-layer modulation, 8 modulation slots, 17 signal sources and 41 targets available, both from modulation modules and audio signal path. This takes Zeeon into semi-modular territory. Imagine oscillator waveform, panning, filter cutoff, resonance or LP-HP mode modulated by oscillators or another layer!

• Effects unit: Circuit modelled BBD chorus, bass booster, zero-delay Phaser, Stereo delay and Reverb.

• 144 presets and Tutorials bank.

More presets and exciting features in upcoming updates."

So there's a feedback loop of FM from VCO1 frequency modulating VCO2 which goes back to frequency modulate VCO1 ... which goes to 2, back to 1 etc etc."

Rhythm Ace FR-8L midi interface with sync and comparison to TR-77


Stereoping
Published on Aug 30, 2017

"Little video with 3 parts showing a midified Bentley Rhythm Ace FR-8L drumbox. 1st: sync-ing the Bentley to an Akai MPC over midiclock. Also demo-ed is the triggering of individual voices incl. Guiro. 2nd: I recreated the tambourine voice which is missing on the FR-8L. Problematic part is the 40 mH coil. The demo shows the sound of the recreated TB with 3 different coils (10mH, 15mH and 50mH). 3rd: Sound comparison of the Bentley to the Roland TR-77 which looks almost identical (well not in the video as i used a TR-77 voiceboard in a custom 19" case). 8 midiprogrammed loops will be fired alternating onto the Bentley and the TR-77 voiceboard. Slight reverb added here.

Roland MKS-20 review - Old school synth-pop tutorial workflow and LIVE performance


Espen Kraft
Published on Aug 30, 2017

"The Roland MKS-20 from the mid 80s. A fantastic retro digital piano module with analoge chorus and tremolo built in for immidiate 80s gratification.
The analog chorus board built into the module can be though of as a cross between the Juno 6/60 chorus and a Dimension D.

Elton John used it for years and Spectrasonics has included it in their Keyscape plugin recently to great reviews. A standard piano sound in many gospel recordings of the day.
Software doesn't cut it for me and I had to get the module. It's getting pretty rare these days so I'm happy it now sits in my rack.
I play it from the Roland S-10 in this video.

I use it mainly because of the preset 7. E. Piano 1. I find that sound irresistable for my 80s sound when I go for a piano/pad with reverb.

In this showcase episode I use that sound with the Chorus enabled and some reverb from a Strymin BlueSky and a TC flashback delay.
The track "Arrivederci" is performed completely LIVE. Just the drum machine providing a little beat. The Juno 6 arpeggiator has a hold function so it can play the same pattern throughout the track.

Listen to more of my music on: http://www.espenkraft.com

My tracks pay homage to all synth.pop acts of the 80'ies like Howard Jones, Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, New Order, Thompson Twins, Tears for Fears, Ultravox, OMD, Euryhmics, Duran Duran, Giorgio Moroder, Jean Michel Jarre, Jan Hammer, A-ha and many more.

A use mostly old gear on my tracks and among them Roland Juno 6, Alpha Juno 2, D550 and JX-8P, MKS-20. Korg DW-8000. Roland TR-626 drum machine. Yamaha DX7 and TX802 and drum machine RX11. I use the Novation Mininova as a vocoder on all my tracks. Effects are usually handled by Strymon and TC electronics. Sampling is done on my E-MU ESI-4000, Akai S1000 and Roland S-10."

Analogue Solutions Fusebox: Synth-Pop Demo!


Published on Aug 29, 2017 rezfilter

"*Headphones or speakers HIGHLY recommended!*

Here's another Fusebox demo track, this time around showcasing a more synth-pop geared sound palette.

All sounds are entirely Fusebox (sans drums) and were programmed, played or sequenced, and then recorded into Logic. Some tracks feature reverb.

The Fusebox Patternator was used extensively in the making of this track and was applied to the main bassline, adding filter dynamics and interesting resonant delights.

The bass sound was created live, while oscillators (sub too) were activated incrementally to thicken the initial sound heard in the video."
