Dave Smith Instruments Announces Mopho Special Edition Keyboard

Dave Smith Instruments Announces Mopho Special Edition Keyboard

Best-Selling Analog Synth Gets Larger Keyboard, Updated Look and Feel

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.—October 15, 2013—Dave Smith Instruments today introduced a special edition of its popular monophonic analog synthesizer, the Mopho Keyboard. “The Mopho family of instruments has been ground-breaking for us and for our customers in terms of value,” said DSI’s Andrew McGowan. “And I think it’s pretty apparent from the way the industry responded that we were on to something with smaller, more affordable, but full-featured instruments, whether modules or keyboards. But there is no typical synthesizer user and we’ve gotten feedback from customers who loved the synth’s sound and features, but who wanted an instrument with a larger keyboard. Now there is one.”

The Mopho SE (special edition) sports an expanded, full-sized, 44-note, semi-weighted keyboard with velocity sensitivity and aftertouch. The larger keyboard facilitates certain playing techniques—like smears for synth bass lines—and is more appropriate for use as a MIDI controller both onstage and in the studio. Even with the additional octave of keys, it’s still just a little more than 25 inches long and its trim profile and light weight make it ideal for gigging. And, like the other Mopho Keyboards, the polyphony can be expanded with the addition of a DSI Tetra or another Mopho synth.

The front panel artwork is now screen printed directly onto the Mopho SE’s sturdy metal enclosure. And it features a full complement of the Prophet 12’s great looking, and even better feeling, soft-touch knobs.

“A lot of synths in this price range have to cut corners to hit a price point; the Mopho SE takes a no compromise approach. As a family of products, these instruments offer great sound and a lot of bang for the buck to a wide variety of players,” concluded McGowan. “There’s a Mopho for just about every synth need.”

The Mopho SE will be shipping by the end of October with a projected MAP of $949.

Pittsburgh Modular Cell 48 System 1

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"The Cell [48] System 1 is a complete single voice, analog synthesizer and a great entry point into modular synthesis. Using the Synthesizer Block module as it's centerpiece, the System 1 contains all of the most important components of a modular synthesizer. Connected internally, the Cell[48] System 1 is hardwired to create a complete monophonic synthesizer without needing to add patch cables. However, each major component within the System 1 is fully patchable and can function independent to the rest of the system by using the available patch points and included patch cables.

An unpatched Cell[48] System 1 offers direct access to a wide array of classic analog monosynth sounds. Without a single patch cable, deep bass and warm sweeping leads are just a few knob tweaks away.
Plugging in a few patch cables opens the Cell[48] System 1 to experimentation by offering unlimited control over both the modulation and audio signal paths. The full functionality of the Oscillator, Filter, LFO, Envelope Generator, VCA, Midi, and Outputs can be broken apart and used like standalone synthesizer modules. All of the elements of a classic voltage controlled, modular synthesizer are available as an open, patchable, modern synth..."

M-Audio Venom 49 Key Analog Modeling Synthesizer

via this auction

"Awesome Bit Of Info:
The Designers Used Some Various Eurorack Modules As Source Sounds For This Synth.
This Is The First Synth That Has Some Harvestman Zorlon Cannon Sounds Included....

'Rather than rely on digital synth modeling, M-Audio has used raw samples of the original instruments to give the Venom its voice. Taiho Yamada, the designer of the Venom, wheeled out dozens of specimens from his vast synth collection (and called in a few favors from friends) to gather samples. These samples of vintage synths — Moogs, Arps, Oberheims, Rolands and the lot — form the foundation of the Venom’s sonic palette. Yamada’s team also sampled some bizarre old hardware. A Harvestman Zorlon Cannon, which employs the same kind of tone generator used in the Atari 2600, was used to achieve some chiptune flavors. An old, tube-driven Hewlett-Packard test oscillator yielded a pure and glassy sine wave. A circuit-bent Roland TR-808 supplied some crunchy drums.'"

MFB KRAFTZWERG Synthesizer Eurorack Module

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction | Rhythm Active (RSS)

"The MFB KRAFTZWERG Eurorack module is a complete ready to go module that pops straight into your modular system and includes the popular Dual LFO, Triple VCO, 24dB VCF, VCA and DUAL ADSR module.

The module KRAFTZWERG can only be played by transfers from Key-CV and gate signals thanks to its internal pre-wiring of the classical pathway VCO-VCF-VCA and the most popular modulation connections without additional patch connections. Due to its 37 patch but it is also possible to break the signal path in order to integrate or control various functions with external CV sources, such as step-sequencers, wheels or theremin controllers external components.

Key CV and Gate can KRAFTZWERG module incidentally also received via the system, provided that an appropriate MIDI-CV or bus access module feeds the signals in the system. Thus, the KRAFTZWERG module is playable without a single patch connection.

The module KRAFTZWERG offers far more than the basic equipment of a voice synthesizer. It has all the necessary components for a powerful and flexible sound generation. The oscillator section provides habitat for three VCOs, each with three waveforms that have hard-sync, pulse width modulation, ring modulation and a separate output. The oscillator block is affiliated to a blender, in which an additional noise generator can be mixed. The resonant filter is a 24-dB low-pass filter with a transistor cascade. A CV-controllable LFOs and two envelopes AHDSR, a VCA, and two multiples, round off the equipment.

Although the KRAFTZWERG module is housed on an entire board, the individual components can be used in combination with other (compatible) analog modules independently of each other and. Except for minor deviations functionality and sound correspond to separate MFB modules. Moreover, it is of course possible that KRAFTZWERG module with other modules MFB, such as the Step Sequencer SEQ-02 or an additional LFOs to add in a rack.

The module KRAFTZWERG has a width of 60 MW (units, about 305 mm) and is equipped with a Doepfer system-compatible cable connection.Unlike the console version of KRAFTZWERG the module has no built-in MIDI-CV interface.

Features:
· Modular version of MFB KRAFTZWERG
· 3 analog oscillators
· 24 dB low pass filter
· Dual LFO, two envelope generators, VCA
· 37 patch for CV and gate control
· all components can be used individually
· compatible with all Eurorack Doepfer format"

'Psychoactive' OMNICHORD SYNTHESIZER for SPACE-GUN-BUNNY (October 2013)

Published on Oct 14, 2013 squidfanny·151 videos

squidfanny on eBay (RSS)

"Epic Circuit Bent Synthesizer, built from a vintage Omnichord & a Monotron Delay.

This machine contains an array of new circuitry designed to twist, warp, disrupt & distort the sounds of the Monotron & the Omnichord.

There's way too much stuff to show in this vid, so I'll probably make another vid to explore the more mellow side of this machine..
In the meantime, this vid is basically an orgy or weird & experimental electronic glitch & filtered noise.

This machine belongs to my friend in America - Mister 'Space-Gun-Bunny'

http://www.youtube.com/user/SpaceGunB...

-----------

Want more details? -

Loads of servicing on the actual Omnichord - lots of new little caps to remove most of the annoying clicks from the triggers. New amp circuits and individual outputs for the separate channels (drums, chord/bass, harp). A little built-in mixer to send the separate channels to the monotribe.

'Monotribe Delay' provides nice interesting VCF & Delay (based on a PT2399 design). I've bolted it next to the Harp-Plate, so that it can be played easily. It can also be modulated by the Omnichord, courtesy of my little DIY step-sequencer.
I particularly like the twisted up delay sounds that can be had from this design - it's a very unique sound.

Regards to the Omnichord mods -

+There's touch-points, for playing lovely squarewaves from inside the machine.
+There are knobs for tweaking the Analog Drums.
+There's switches above the rhythms buttons, so that the rhythms can be combined with each other for making interesting new rhythm weidness.
+A patch-bay allows brand new rhythms to be created.
+Separate volume knob for the BASS tone.
+Glitch Mods, to amaze.

The Monotribe required a little modding too - had to add a 'resonance' knob for the VCF, and also came up with an interesting mod to generate some fascinating distortion (see later vid).

This was a very experimental project, tried lot's of interesting new circuits with this machine. Also had a few problems along the way - I put alot of effort into building a new 'clock' circuit for the machine, so that I could Sync it to my monotribe. Unfortunately it still has a few bugs, so I'm cheating a little, and using the Trigger Pulse from the Omnichord's hit-hat as a Clock signal to sync the Monotribe :)

Anyway, this is the crazy vid.... I'll post a mellow vid as a response soon."
