Partials & Discrepancies 1.5.0 – 30+ Dry Presets | Additive Synth Update, No Talking

video upload by Unusable Engineering

"Partials & Discrepancies has just gotten an update, a new look and 42 new presets.

In this video I play through around 30 of the new Partials & Discrepancies 1.5.0 factory presets, played completely dry. No talking.

The on-screen text goes through the main additions in v1.5.0 while I play.

Partials & Discrepancies is an 8-voice additive synth built around up to 128 partials per voice, oscillator slots, voice discrepancies and a lot of movement between states.

Version 1.5.0 adds:
• Oscillator Detune
• Oscillator Smear, based on a tuned delay line
• Ring Modulator mode
• New self-oscillating filter
• Host-synced Mod Osc
• Key-reset and key-tracked noise for the Mod Osc
• Portamento and polyphonic legato
• Improved voice stealing
• New interface colors and layout
• 42 new factory presets


The video goes through around 30 of the new presets without external effects, so everything you hear comes directly from the synth - it was recorded straight from the iMac's output onto a Zoom H6 recorder.

Features:
- Custom Samples per BANK

Now each BANK can have its own sample set, it must be placed in the BANK folder (00;01;etc). If no SAMPLES folder is present in a BANK folder, default sample set from the root folder SAMPLES is loaded!


- New CHORD algorithm
Accsess it via the Voice 3, Algo 3, Mode 3! It replaces one of the Karplus modes. PARAM1 morphs throuigh the waveforms, PARAM 2 sets the chord.

Three new generative sequencers

video upload by John Schussler

"I have had the Gamut Repetitor from Noise Engineering for a while, and then recently got the Random 8 and the Shooting Stars modules. Since all three are farming similar ground, if that's a saying, I figured I'd do a quick comparison.

Nothing exhaustive, just a feel for how each sounds with a quick plug in and fiddle.

There are two VCOs attached because the Shooting Stars only has two outputs. The Gamut and Random 8 have more, but it seemed to make more sense to just stick with 2 for all of them. The gate pattern is coming from a Numeric Repetitor, and is the same for all 3 so it's easier to hear the melodic differences.

VCOs are Plaits and PonyVCO. Envelope is Zadar.

Pine DSP releases Blox Rack (VST/AU/AAX)

video upload by Pine DSP

Press release follows:

"Pine DSP have announced the availability of Blox Rack, a modular effects rack plugin in the "500-series" mould, that adds a horizontal panel for EQ, modulation and other fine details.

Blox Rack's six effects – EQ, Comp, Chorus, Reverb, Delay, Exciter – are also available individually as separate plugins to load and run in a DAW for license holders of Blox Rack.

Mixing with a rack of plugins is a mostly great workflow, but when it comes to EQ, the vertical format can't offer you a speedy way to edit bands precisely or a view of the frequency spectrum running through it. That's why we added a pop-out horizontal panel to the top of Blox Rack – it acts as a context-sensitive view, helping you stay in the moment for EQ, modulation and precision ducking.

JIANT FM — FM1 | Animal + Drum X + Bytebeat Jam

video upload by JIANT

You can find the M-VAVE FM-1 on Amazon.

"JIANT FM — FM1 | Animal + Drum X + Bytebeat Jam

A little jam exploring the Animal, Drum X and Bytebeat engines of my custom firmware, JIANT FM, for the FM1.

First of all, I want to thank everyone for the incredible support and love you've been giving this project. It makes me really happy to see so many people connecting with my way of thinking, creating and designing instruments.

The firmware is still in beta. There are some CPU performance and UI issues I need to solve before I can move forward with a more stable version.

Right now, development is temporarily on hold because I've run out of funds for the project this month, including Claude credits, which have been an essential tool in helping me turn my ideas into something real.

JIANT FM started as a very personal experiment, an attempt to build the synthesizer I've always wanted to have. Somehow, it kept growing and eventually found its way into your homes, studios and creative processes. That's something I never imagined, and it means a lot to me.

My intention is to keep improving it and make it available to everyone, free and open, while continuing to explore the connection between technology, sound design and my own creative practice as a visual artist.
