A Ternary Form


Published on Jan 23, 2017 Joe Miller

"Another simple song in the literal sense; a diatonic melodic statement in ABA form.

The patch make use of the Make Noise tELHARMONIC for the accompaniment part, and a short modulation in the B-section to focus on a related minor mode. Erica's Black Wavetable handles the repeating arpeggios with the continuous melodic bass line coming from the STO... played via Yarns and the keyboard controller."

"The synthesizer functions perfectly and was serviced last year. All trimpots & key contacts were cleaned, and the tuning and other functions re-calibrated to factory specification. The arpeggiator trigger input has been modified to accept standard V-TRIG signals instead of the original S-TRIG. No other modifications have been performed. There is no MIDI kit installed..."

"The 'giant orange beast' in excellent condition. One of Waldorf's most loved wavetable synths.

A truly massive synth that you can lose yourself in for days. Attached to a computer and away from the screen is where deep work flourishes. Unreal sound possibilities thanks to routing matrix and wavetable engine.

Synth sports a balanced 1/4" audio input and a CV input.

"Data Garden founder, Joe Patitucci, takes us on a hike through Than Sadet National Forest in Thailand and listens to native plants. Tune in as he connects his MIDI Sprout to two different plants - a healthy plant and a plant that's being eaten by pests.

VERMONA PERFOURMER Mark 2 // STERO MONSTER // the WELL PANNED SYNTH // 1/3


Published on Jan 23, 2017 LESINDES

"Using th internal arpeggiator of PERFOURMER.
Interesting voicings in the stereo pan. The VERMONA PERFOURMER is the only modern analog synth that makes it possible.to play the game of alternating/rotating sounds in the same musical line. Each voice has it own sound (eg waveform, ADSR, LFO, filter and PAN)."

Malekko Heavy Industry Manther, Mr. D and BFF first look - NAMM 2017


Published on Jan 23, 2017 FACTmagazine

"Malekko Heavy Industry was one of many modular synth companies with new gear at NAMM 2017, but it wasn't its modules that caught our eye - it was two desktop synths and a drum machine tucked away behind the booth.

Malekko's new standalone range consists of an analog mono synth called the Manther inspired by Roland's MC-202, the Mr. D drum machine and BFF, a synth collaboration with Industrial Music Electronics.

All three devices works by themselves, but each comes with the necessary outputs to patch into an existing Eurorack modular system. They were only on show in non-working prototype form at NAMM 2017, but FACT spoke to Malekko's Ben Davis to find out more."

"Poly 4 voices

ARP / 2 UNISSON / 2 POLY

8 memory Slots AND factory bank. (Battery recently changed)

Recently AND totally monitored by A professionnal all the electronical condenser changed to bring the original power of the beggining.

100% Fully working except two things

There is one note like 'discalibrated'

Factory presets are low of volume

Not a big problem because the factory preset cannot be modified and are a bit useful

more powerfull than all the other JUPITER except maybe the 8 I never test.


The ENSEMBLE is amazing.

aesthetically, some CAPS are missing ( to look at the Photos )

The tuning caps not original"

Boards of Canada - Boqurant + 5.9.78 (COVER by Pece)


Published on Jan 23, 2017 Piotr Cieślik

Picks up at 1:44.

"All sounds were created on Yamaha AN1x, except the base intro patch (made on daHornet vst: http://nusofting.liqihsynth.com/freep...). The beat was produced in Reaper. Everything was mixed in Reaper also. I used some wow and flutter effect, VHS tape emulation, the mix was even sent to my trustworthy AKAI cassette deck (without recording to tape but using cassette tape adaptor) and recorded again from its output. The tuning of the track is 31.3 cents higher from a standard A440 tuning."

Open.Theremin - Open Source DIY Theremin


Published on Oct 30, 2016 Therminal C

"Short trailer mixing 2 videos about Open.Theremin & Retro Gaming.

I experimented with Open.Theremin, an opensource & DIY Theremin produced in Switzerland, by Gaudi Lab : http://www.gaudi.ch/OpenTheremin/

Open.Theremin is a great little theremin instrument, linear and playable. Compared to professional theremins, such as Moog Epro, there's a lack of response of the volume antenna, some latency, higher sensitivity to its environnement. Nonetheless, i think it's the cheapest and most playable theremin currently available. And it's totally open source, so you can help improve it :-) !

Open.Theremin.UNO is very sensitive to its environment and bad grounding. There's a filtering on the volume (which makes its response a bit slower than Moog theremin) to make it less sensitive. Nonetheless, the power adapter you will use will affect it a lot. If you have noise problems, try out different adaptors. USB power supply can be cheap and therefore not very recommended for that.

While preparing the video, i got the chance to do some beta testing with the new version, Open.Theremin v3.This newer version -v3- has a lot of great new functionalities: easy to built, easy calibration (all automatic!), manual fine tuning for adjustments (really great if you use Carolina Eyck's fingering technique), 3 registers, 8 different sound settings.

A huge thanks to:
- Urs Gaudenz (director of Gaudi LAb)for creating Open.Theremin & great collaboration
- Alain Gilliéron for helping me building Open.Theremin.UNO v2
- Thierry Frenkel for helping me to calibrate Open.Theremin.UNO v2
- « etheremin » FB's group, for sharing their experiments on the Open.Theremin.UNO v2 with me.
- Sylvain Ehinger for restoring my "Arcade Table"

NB : intro music "In the Cave" (composed by Therminal C) was played on an Epro Theremin.
