Sennheiser VSM201 Vocoder owned by Herbie Hancock

via this auction

"For sale is a vintage Sennheiser VSM201 vocoder. VSM201's are very rare and perhaps the most incredible and versatile of all analog vocoders. These originally cost $20,000 and very few were made. I have heard only 5 are still in operational condition in the states. This one was fully serviced this past year and is fully functional. It is in great shape for such an old instrument, and even includes the original box! It sounds absolutely amazing. In addition, this vocoder has an incredible history. It was owned by Herbie Hancock! A certificate verifying this will be included in the auction. See pictures below for more details. Here is a short sound demo. This demo only scratches the surface of its features, demonstrating its most basic abilities."

Strings for Rapture (Ode to the End of the World)

Strings for Rapture (Ode to the End of the World) from bar|none on Vimeo.

"This is a bit of noodling with a KYMA sound designed by Edmund Eagan for the Continuum that I adapted for the Eigenharp.

As you can hear, it has a lot of per note expression. Each key controls, velocity, pitch, timbre (reresonation of the strings), volume. phase, pick sound mix using roll, yaw, pressure, velocity of the keys, each key sending all this information INDEPENDENTLY!

There is a bit of bowed cello added which comes in only when I use the strip controller, everything else is one KYMA sound.

I'd like to extend my appreciation to Geert Bevin who designed the new MIDI configuration options for EigenD and made this connection possible. And of course to Edmund Eagan for this amazing sound, and to Symbolic Sound for KYMA."

"The unit has an insert port for an Akai Sampler (s900, s950), allowing you to run the audio out through the Akai's filters. I have seen people acquire the cables and then wire them into 1/4" breakout boxes. This allows them to run ANY analog source through the Akai's filters."

"Demonstrating new snare and bass drum prototypes. Four years of studying Roland schematics and thinking about the physics of real drums has yielded some detailed and flexible all-analog models. Selected elements of Roland TR-606 and TR-808 are combined with a clarified philosophy on the transfer of resonant energy from drumstick/beater to vibrating drumhead. All harmonic oscillations are generated with high-Q bandpass filters, as opposed to the triangle VCO/EG/VCA design utilized in lots of cheezy drum synthesizers that just go 'PYOO-PYOO!'... bleh. You know the type.

DIY-savvy types are invited to check out the Andromeda Mk-1, Mk-2, Mk-3, Mk-4 minimal drum synthesizer kits available thru my site, ericarcher.net

JX3P DT200 APC40 jam (alien robot dance)

YouTube Uploaded by se7ense7 on May 21, 2011

"I did a first jam, trying out the brand-new DT200 (Roland PG200 clone for JX3P and MKS-30 synths made by dtronics at www.engineersatwork.nl).

No presets used.

The APC40/ableton combination is a real life-saver for doing these kinds of jams. The drumloops were prepared, but that's about the only thing...

When you see me doing stuff, but you don't hear anything, that's because I'm cue-ing the sounds before recording them. The jam gets a little boring (or starts of a little boring) but I didn't want to cut out any parts."

iProphetVS v1.2 offers:
- a redesigned look & feel for enhanced readability plus some very tiny UI adjustments to make the workflow even better
- parameter default value buttons. In v1.2, if you touch the parameter value label, it resets the label / slider to a default value (ex: DCO wave = Saw; VCF Freq = wide open, etc...) for each parameter... this is the fastest workflow you'll ever get in sound designing!
- automatically enables / disables parameters based on other parameter values (ex: DCO wave = Noise automatically disables DCO Coarse and DCO Fine parameters; Chorus Left = On automatically disables Chorus Right and Chorus Left & Right parameters; etc...) exactly like your Prophet VS!"
