SoundScaper 1.3 Released

iTunes: SoundScaper - An experimental sound mini lab - iMusicAlbum

"What's New in Version 1.3
● Advanced control panel by double tap on the sound sources in mixer.
● Eight band equalizer for each sound source.
● LP and HP filters in reverb for each sound source.
● Additional reverb algorithm modes for sound sources.
● Built-in description updated.
● Minor bug fixes."

Some additional info via Motion Soundscape:

"In the new version you can open advanced control panel by double tap to the mixer sources. This panel contains eight-band equalizer which connected after filter and delay modules and before reverb unit. By default equalizer is off. Also this panel contains two faders at the bottom for changing frequency of the low-pass and high-pass filters for reverb signal (reverb reflections, not for source signal).

There are three buttons for modifying reverberation algorithm for each sound sources. Different algorithm modes for different sound sources in common reverb space can give very unusual sounding. Experimenting with these modes for different sounds you can reach spatial effects which would be more suitable for your soundscape ideas."

Moog Minimoog Model D SN 7479

via this auction

via the seller: "This Model D (Serial Number 7479) is in near perfect cosmetic and working condition. We have had several Model D's pass through our synth-loving hands and this is by far the cleanest unit we have ever seen or played. Prior to us receiving the unit it was professionally serviced and calibrated. The tuning on this particular unit is also the best we have seen on any of the units we have. One of the main things that plague most old Model D's is their inconsistent key-bed. The key-bed on this particular unit is near perfect and level with amazing playability. The servicing also included a full cleaning of the main contact buss along with the key bushings. The front panel is flawless and all knobs and switches are noise free and function perfectly. This unit is equipped with the original and sought after oscillator board (OSC Board). As far as the housing goes, it is near flawless except for a penny-sized (and that's being over generous) nick in the wood under the "Mixer" section of the panel. This can be seen in the photos above. This Minimoog truly sets itself apart from others and there is no wonder why it is such a storied and legacy item. This synth is perfect for studio, live, or a vintage synthesizer collector. We could copy and paste the legacy and history of Moog and the Minimoog Model D, but if your here looking you are already in the know."

"Classic Roland analog mono synth that is essentialy a single voice of the Jupiter 4. A previous owner painted the wood ends black. The synth defaults to manual mode when you turn it on. All of the factory and user presets work, but pressing the manual button does not return to manual mode. A D# key is slightly bent, but still very playable."

Korg Triton Rack Demo Songs


Published on Jun 3, 2015 Sound Programming

"Factory demo songs from the Korg Triton Rack synthesizer recorded direct with no additional effects.

Song list:

0. Please Don't (0:02)
1. Line Drive (2:50)
2. OBT Digi Hunt (6:09)
3. Aquatinted (10:10)
4. Deep Cut (12:54)

This rackmount version of the Korg Triton can be expanded with up to 8 EXB-PCM wave expansion boards and with the EXB-MOSS multi-oscillator synthesis system.

The LCD screen in this unit has some dead lines. The screens don't typically fail without suffering some sort of physical trauma, so replacement screens are hard to find."

Percussa Releases Percussa Wireless AudioCubes PRO

"Walnut (California). June 3, 2015 - Percussa has released the third generation of the AudioCubes: Percussa Wireless AudioCubes Pro.

After releasing the second generation of AudioCubes, Percussa Wireless AudioCubes, Percussa spent over one year of research to bring the AudioCubes to the next level.

Percussa explored several different production techniques for the housing of the AudioCubes, such as molding and 3D printing, and produced several prototypes to evaluate each production technique. In the end Percussa decided to go for CNC milling, a more expensive production technique that has been around for many years and is being used by large companies such as Apple, for instance to produce the Apple Watch.

Besides going for a more expensive production technique, Percussa also selected a material that is more wearable, wear resistant and has easier maintenance: Delrin, also known as POM.

The Percussa Wireless AudioCubes PRO consists of 2 CNC milled Delrin parts: a white translucent top part, and opaque black bottom part. By giving the bottom part a black color, it enhances the contrast of the colours displayed by the top part.

Software updates will continue to work on the previous generation AudioCubes, Percussa Wireless AudioCubes, and will work equally well on the new version, the Wireless AudioCubes PRO.

The Percussa Wireless AudioCubes PRO can be ordered directly from Percussa. All major credit cards are accepted, and are being shipped worldwide.

About Percussa
Percussa makes the AudioCubes, a modular gestural audiovisual instrument. It's an instrument that consists of smart wireless cubes, capable of sensing each other’s location and orientation, as well as sensing distance to each other and your hands and fingers, and capable of changing colours.

AudioCubes are being used by professional musicians all around the world for sound design, composition, live performance, music (STEM) education, interactive installations and many other creative applications. More information about Percussa: https://www.percussa.com"

acid8 digital bassline test


Published on Jun 3, 2015 Pacou Just Pacou

The Acid8 is by Twisted Electrons Details posted here.

"new digital bassline made in france

-it does absolutly not sound like a 303 :)
-can make some nasty dry bass sounds
-various waveforms with very different sound, also editable via software
-fx section powerful, can completly change/ disintegrate waveform sound (fun)
-filter section ok but nothing groundbreaking here
-accent doesn't make notes real "pop out" like on 303 like sequencers
-continued turning knobs like "building/ developing a sound" can be either predictable due to simple filter or completly wild if fx section gets involved
-many good settings possible but some of these are not blending well into each other with knob movements"
