"This is the highly sought after 8mb version. The machine boots w/o issues every time while the hard drive and floppy carry out read and write functions reliably. Overall this synth has been well cared for and is in pristine condition inside and out. All sliders, buttons, and jacks have been thoroughly tested and work great as well as keys trigger perfectly with nice action. This synth has some special history because it came from Flyte Tyme Studios where it was used by some of the greatest musicians of all time. It comes with a large collection of sample disks that came along with it and many of my favorites have been loaded to the hard drive so you can start exploring for hours without any down time. The Floppy drive was recently replaced with a high quality Teak drive and the 40MB hard drive was formatted and then loaded full with samples. The cooling fans are strong and the machine operates at proper temps and the power supply was recently calibrated testing good supplying stable power to the synth. Also included with the sale are a spare oled display, the power cord, and a pack of 50 Sony blank disks. Here's your chance to own a legend in near mint and reliable operating condition..."

"You can hear the ST20 on this track

(the last song I used the instrument on)

SUIKO ST20 is extremely rare and most strange japanese electronic musical instruments originally made for japanese traditinal music circa. 1980. and this one is very rare version of SUIKO ST20 with recording function it's built in cool brown custom suitcase like EMS synth, one side of the suitcase is a speaker so you can play without external amp or mixer but don't worry it has audio output too. keyboard itself is built in beautiful brown metal plate, look cool!

these keyboards were very expensive and made very limited quantities those days so i'ts very hard to find even in Japan nowadays... this is your first and last chance to get this vintage gem!

it has 2 rows of button keyboard this keyboard specially designed for playing glissando easily like koto(japanese harp) front row of the keyboard is japanese scale,so just playing randomly you can easily get exotic japanese melody!

there are various switch and dial for special japanese tuning and sustain and octave switch three sounds are selectable,shyakuhachi(japanese bamboo flute),koto(japanese harp) and pipe organ sounds are very analog, warm and strange!"

Granular Synthesis Defined on Soundfly

For those interested, Soundfly has a post up explaining granular synthesis here. Click through for the full post and be sure to check out their other tutorials.

"When it comes to sampling and Ableton, there are an overwhelming number of methods for turning almost any recorded sound into a functional musical tabula rasa. From simply dragging and dropping a recording into a track and splicing manually, to warping, distorting, reversing, transposing, and making use of plugin-based tricks of processing, one can explore the parameters of a single piece of audio for months at a time. A slightly lesser known, yet highly rewarding method to add to the bevy of sampling workflows in your tracks is granular synthesis."

Moog Discontinues the 500 Series

via Moog Music

"A Fond Farewell to the 500 Series

We're officially bidding a fond farewell to the 500 Series family of analog effects modules. We will continue hand-crafting the final modules at our factory in Asheville, NC, while parts and materials last. Though an extremely limited number of units remain at authorized Moog dealers nationwide, all 500 Series modules built in 2017 will be available with special end-of-production pricing exclusively at Sweetwater Sound and Vintage King Audio in the U.S. and internationally through our Authorized Distributor network.

The Moog 500 Series family of analog effects made its debut at the 131st AES show in October 2011. The Ladder was the first of its kind in the format--a dynamic low-pass/high-pass filter based on Bob Moog’s original ladder filter designs. This unique module allowed recording engineers to dynamically process existing sounds through a completely new palette of harmonically expansive, overdriven and thickening analog circuits.

The following year, at the 2012 AES show in San Francisco, the 500 Series Analog Delay was unveiled. Building on Moog’s legacy in BBD-based analog designs, the 500 Series Analog Delay was first informed by the renowned MF-104 Analog Delay pedal. Over the course of its extensive development, a series of critical design advancements resulted in the creation of a truly preeminent analog delay with MIDI control, un-emulatable character, and extensive sonic depth.

This is your last opportunity to purchase these units before they go out of production. Use our dealer locator to find a Moog dealer in your area."

Uli Behringer Interview on DeepMind12 Synthesizer.

Published on Feb 23, 2017 BEHRINGER

Key point: more synths to come, they are all in, and they will be looking at what users want. He mentions creating products from $49 up.

"Uli Behringer's interview at the Pre-NAMM Synth-A-Thon where he talks about his early beginnings as a musician, and the evolution of DeepMind12.

Uli's first introduction to music was through his father, who had a church organ in the house that had 1200 pipes. It was his passion and spent his life building it. During this time as Uli was a young boy, he learned from him and carried the torch on.

The first piece of musical equipment Uli ever made was a synthesizer when he was 16 years old.

Then in the 80's, he was in a jazz band, studying sound engineering and piano in Germany. He was a struggling musician playing jazz in bars with friends, during the day studying. His good friend Harold was into Frank Sinatra which inspired Uli's passion for his music.

All these moments lead up to Uli building the DeepMind12.

He worked with the MIDAS developers in Manchester about building a new synthesizer. The team there built something quite incredible with amazing features like augmented reality.

Pete Sandler was one of the key developers, and the DeepMind12 is one of Uli's greatest products."

Tone2 RayBlaster2 Introduces New Impulse Modelling Synthesis (IMS)

Published on Feb 23, 2017 Tone2 Audiosoftware

"Download the free test version of RayBlaster2 now from www.tone2.com !"

Reminds me of the formant synthesis on the Yamaha FS1R.

Some info from Tone2:

RayBlaster - a radically new form of synthesis!

Impulse Modelling Synthesis (IMS) is far more than a marketing buzzword - it represents a radically new and different approach in sound generation.

Based on the latest research in psychoacoustics, Tone2 RayBlaster unveils a completely new and unique world of sounds that is exclusive to RayBlaster and not possible with other synthesizers.

What is Impulse Modeling Synthesis ?

Offering a new world of high quality sounds and limitless creative potential for all styles of music,
IMS goes well beyond traditional forms of synthesis. Conventional synthesizers employ what is known as subtractive synthesis, in which the oscillator source is a looped waveform that is filtered to create a sound. By contrast, RayBlaster utilizes an entirely new and fresh approach to sound generation and creates its distinctive sound from many short bursts of energy, which combine to form a more complex sound. In fact, this innovative approach to synthesis is very close to how our human inner ear perceives sound. Because of its radically new method of synthesis, RayBlaster offers a wide range of original sounds, sounds that have never been heard before.

What is the difference to other synthesizers?

Jams by Tape Ghost

Published on Nov 9, 2016 Tape Ghost

Playlist:

1. Dub Ambient (Modular + H9)

"Krautrock and dub inspired ambient composition I made on my modular. Taking the opportunity to really dig into the capabilities of my machine and see whats possible. Ran the stereo out from the modular through my Eventide H9 with a Space preset I created for this track. Only compression and normalizing was applied in the DAW. The video is of the patch set up and not the performance."

2. Elektron Machinedrum Workout (minimal techno)

"Finding out the limits of my Machinedrum as a stand-alone instrument, also meant to serve as a fairly comprehensive demo of different synthesis techniques available onboard. Onboard effects and processing only including Master EQ and Compression with onboard effects."

3. BLSD (live take) - modular + elektron A4 and Machinedrum
4. Acid Techno with Modular + Push

"Rather than doing everything with hardware and my analog mixer, I'm trying to embrace the power of digital and trying out a potential setup using Ableton, Push 1, and my modular in a way that allows for exciting dynamic performances without doing everything by hand. Just saw Richie Hawtin perform at ADE and was inspired by his creativity with an all digital set up."

5. Meditations (Ambient Modular + Eventide H9)
6. Dub Techno Jam. Modular, ms-20 and TR8
7. Plastikman inspired jam (TB-3, TR-8, MS-20)

I fashioned a tool out of a credit card to hold my pitch shifter handsfree. This is all recorded, mixed down and mastered with my TASCAM DP-24SD Portastudio, video recording was done on a iPhone 7 Plus with a fisheye lens attachment. Edited with Microsoft Movie Maker on an old Toshiba laptop at my cabin in the woods of Bellingham, Washington."
