A patent-free Link system so that other companies can join in the fun. This is MiniBrute 2. This is MiniBrute 2S. This is RackBrute. This is only the beginning."

Update: RackBrute review: Link system explained on the new Arturia Rack Brute

Published on Jan 17, 2018 loopop

Note there are no modules, just the cases. The bottom of the stands attacked to the new MiniBrute 2 and 2S.  Curious if Arturia will be producing eurorack modules over time.

The press release:

"Grenoble-based hardware and software synth specialists Arturia are proud to announce the imminent release of RackBrute, a Eurorack modular storage, power, and transport system.
Following the announcement of the new MiniBrute 2 and MiniBrute 2S synthesizers, RackBrute is the third and final product of the series, and will be available at stores worldwide from March 2018. RackBrute is a dedicated Eurorack case crafted from sturdy steel and aluminium, with many innovative enhancements. Each unit features a dedicated power module to keep your precious gear supplied with +12V / -12V / +5V power, the handle can be calibrated to act as a multi-position stand, letting you use your Eurorack modules in whatever position you find most comfortable.

RackBrute comes in two sizes: a smaller 3U, 88HP version, and a larger 6U, 176HP version. Whatever size your collection, your modules will be housed in the most economic, efficient way possible.

RackBrute completes a versatile, customizable, creative EcoSystem bridging the gap between traditional synthesizers and the world of modular thanks to the new Arturia Link system found on both the MiniBrute 2 and MiniBrute 2S to lock in place. When using RackBrute in combination with MiniBrute or MiniBrute 2S, everything is laid out before you, breaking down all barriers for your experimentation and inspiration.

When you need to pack away for storage, or to transport your whole setup for a gig, RackBrute can pack down into a handy transport mode, with a sturdy carry handle and spacers to prevent any collision between the RackBrute and the other attached hardware. A stylish RackBrute Travel Bag is also available to keep your precious cargo scratch, splash, and dust free.

If you’d like to get hands on MiniBrute 2, MiniBrute 2S and RackBrute, find Arturia at NAMM 2018. We’ll be at booth #11910. We can’t wait to see you."

Endorphin.es AUTOPILOT introduction

Published on Dec 13, 2017 TheEndorphines

"Endorphin.es - AUTOPILOT: 4 hp auto-tuner module.

Do you remember the days when tuning the synthesizer was an issue?
We are happy to introduce you the AUTOPILOT - innovative dual tuner module.
Here is a detuned two voice sequence. We play A note on both oscillators.
Single button press enables the tune function to the nearest A note. Long hold press disables the tune.
Now we are in perfect tune.
We even advanced tuning algorithm with dynamic rate response, and added alternative 4-32 Hz scale, by long hold both buttons press.
Tune your oscillators instantly, just apply the Autopilot in between the pitch CV and apply the reference waveform.
Thank you for watching"

GrandPA is a granular sampler in a eurorack format made by Bastl Instruments. It is a powerful little sampler, with an external micro SD card, that let you modulate many parameters with CV. It is a lot of fun with a theremin, i am totally in love with this module!

---------------------------
SUZANNE CIANI
---------------------------

Suzanne Ciani is a true synthesizer pioneer. She was one of the early disciples of 70’s synth maker Don Buchla and uses his modular equipment ever since. She was responsible for a revolution in advertising sound design, by the creation of the famous Coca-Cola ‘plop’ sound. A distinctive sound, that is recognized all over the world. The real breakthrough came in the 80’s, with calming new age space-music, earning her 5 Grammy nominations.

DATE

THURSDAY 02/11

NICK VERSTAND
---------------------------

Nick Verstand is a contemporary artist researching human perception and consciousness. His large-scale immersive art installations - spatial compositions of visuals, light and sound - transform human behaviour into hypnotic environments. Nick Accompanies Ciani by composing with light corresponding with her music performance. Using control voltages from Ciani’s modular Buchla synthesizer, he transforms sound envelopes, rhythms and spatial dynamics into light parameters."
