"Synth was made in 80's years in USSR. Aelita is rare synthesizer actually much more rare than well known polyvox soviet synth. Aelita's sound can be very organic, mellow and very fat, agressive also. Synthesizer has very original "transformer" design with removing main operation panel.
Aelita has three oscillators with square, pulse and saw waveforms.There is LFO with triangle,square,saw and ramp waveforms.Every oscillator can be independently detuned in one octave range. We have possibilities in any chord playing here.You can switch oscillators from 32' to 2' registers.Every oscillator has it's own level slider in mixer section.Oscillator's pitch can be modulated by LFO and first oscillator can be modulated by third oscillator.Than we have nice sounding 24db lowpass filter with screaming resonanse and fat low end.Filter has it's own ADS envelope, keyboard tracking and can be modulated by LFO.VCA has ADS envelope with release switch.There is unussual unison mode when you can get signal of all oscillators in 4 registers in one time."
Samples:
1)1osc_registers_waves.mp3
1 oscillator from 32' to 2' registers switched on square,pulse and saw waveforms. All track is dry signal.
2)filter.mp3
filter's cutoff slider tweaking with increasing resonanse. All track is dry signal.
3)3osc_saw_dryandreverb.mp3
every oscillator's slider moving in mixer section to rich unison. First half of track is dry signal and little reverb added than.
4)Unissson%20mode.mp3
Aelita's voice in unison mode.All track is dry signal.
5)tunetweaking.mp3
at first 3 oscillators in 4' register switched with pulse waveform than every oscillator's tune slider tweaking. Open filter at first and than you can hear filtering signal.
6)1osc_square_sequence.mp3
simple sequence on 1 oscillator with square waveform
7)3osc_unison_square_melody.mp3
a little melody on 3 oscillators tuned in unison in 4' register with square wave
8)3osc_saw_bassmelody.mp3
bassss melody on 3 oscillators tuned in unison with saw waveforms 16' 16' 8' registers switched
9)resonanse.mp3
filter's resonanse demo.Resonanse slider on maximum to selfoscillation. At first keyboard tracking and than LFO modulation.
10)aelita.mp3
Aelita is exellent dronmachine. Here soundtrack based on aelita's weird drones.
11)aelitademotrack.mp3
one more track with bass and nice filtering sound.All track is dry signal."
Aelita goes a long way.
ReplyDeleteOk, which electronic musician has every nice synth, lives in the UK and weighs 2000 lbs?

It's cool synth layouts like this that make me sad when I see such epicly unimaginative interfaces like the John Bowen Solaris.
