Noise Engineering Reason Rack Extension Synth Bundle 1: Modulation


Published on May 9, 2018 Noise Engineering

"In this demo, we walk through the three Rack Extensions coming to Reason from Noise Engineering, all based on our Eurorack modules.

0:06 Introduction to product
0:21 Basimilus Iteritas
0:34 Basimilus Iteritas back panel
1:23 Manis Iteritas
1:50 Manis Iteritas back panel
2:19 Loquelic Iteritas Percido
3:02 Loquelic Iteritas Percido back panel

Basimilus Iteritas was originally designed to be a universal drum but is suitable for leads & bass too.

Manis Iteritas is based on the original Basimilus but is a bit more industrial sounding.

Loquelic Iteritas Percido is all about the lasers and space farts. Yeah, you read that right.

All three will be available together in Synth Bundle 1, coming soon to the Propellerhead Shop. More information there and at our website:

Superbooth 2018: Coolest Booth? Build Sounds Like LEGO in VR


Published on May 9, 2018 sonicstate

"Edo really knows the VR space - he makes it look so easy when he builds really interesting sound machines from basic 'physics' building blocks in the virtual landscape. It's a powerful concept - you can make sound generating machines in VR which either comply with the normal rules of physics as we know them in the 'real' world... or totally ignore them!

Right now the sound generation is in the box, but soon it will communicate with external sound devices, so you can control your modular in VR - yes!"

DreamsOfWires - 'One Synth' album (all tracks recorded with a single synth)


Published on May 9, 2018

"Available here: https://tomorrowthecure.bandcamp.com/...

All 7 tracks recorded using a single analog monosynth, 'One Synth' contains tracks from YouTube and a new, exclussive Volca Keys track only available here. Two tracks were re-mixed/effected, and all have much improved audio quality over the video versions, taken from the source recordings.
https://www.facebook.com/tomorrowthec...
https://www.patreon.com/dreamsofwires"




"7 tracks created using only 1 analog monosynth. 6 tracks are taken from the DreamsOfWires YouTube channel, whilst the Volca Keys track is a new composition created exclusively for this release. All tracks are taken from the original source files, and 2 ('Odyssey' & 'MiniMod') were completely remixed and re-effected.

I have tried to avoid tampering with these recordings too much, as they were created in a fairly organic, partly improvised, 'warts & all' manner, which is how I prefer to make music. This keeps it fresh and interesting for me, and retains more sincerity and authenticity than if I'd spent days on end swearing at it and sobbing into my coffee. For me, every piece of music is a work-in-progress, having an evolution or life of it's own, and so there is never a definitive version.

Published on May 9, 2018 DivKidVideo

"The new AJH Wave Swarm takes a single input and turns that into a 6 VCO beating / detuning swarm. Similar to a super saw but you don't have to use saw waves as the inputs. If you just use one input you can use the second channel to get a one VCO to twelve effect

Superbooth 2018 - AJH Synth V Shape (wave skew clipper & folder)

Published on May 9, 2018

"The new V Shape from AJH Synth is a dual stage distortion module in the sense of changing and distorting waves. But it's not just another overdrive! It starts with a wave twister or skew that can give triangles or saws and ramps a PWM like affect before moving onto the second stage which is either a clipping distortion (with soft/hard clip switch) or wave folder. Both have CV and can be used independently or used together as a two stage process.

Yamaha Expands Soundmondo Sound-Sharing Website to Include MONTAGE Content


Published on May 9, 2018 Synthtopia

"At Superbooth 2018, Yamaha's Blake Angelos gave us a quick update on Soundmondo, and its new support for the Montage synthesizer."

And the press release:


BUENA PARK, Calif. (May 3, 2018) – Yamaha is expanding Soundmondo, the groundbreaking social sound-sharing website originally conceived for sharing reface Mobile Mini Keyboard sounds. Soundmondo now supports the MONTAGE Music Synthesizer, broadening its technological and user base to include an immense source of content.

Since launching in 2015, Soundmondo users created over 20,000 free reface sounds online. Now, MONTAGE users have the ability to explore and share new content of their own on a daily basis. To launch this new branch of the network, Yamaha produced 400 MONTAGE Performances, including content from the original DX ROM Cartridges, special content from Yamaha Music Europe and 16 original Performances from legendary synthesizer sound designer Richard Devine. Along with the content, Soundmondo is free for all MONTAGE users.

Soundmondo makes it possible to organize Performances into set lists, add demo audio/video and discover new pieces made by the global music-making community. All content is accessible via Google Chrome or the newly-launched Soundmondo (formerly “reface Soundmondo”) iOS app.

The MONTAGE Music Synthesizer, introduced in 2016 and enhanced with four major OS updates since then, represents a new era in synthesizer technology, offering unprecedented levels of control in sound and workflow.
“Soundmondo is to sound what photo-sharing networks are to images,” says Nate Tschetter, marketing manager, Synthesizers, Yamaha Corporation of America. “It’s a great way to share your sound experiences and get inspiration from others.”

Percussa Super Signal Processor Update


via Percussa

You can find Percussa SUPERBOOTH videos here.

"We just got back from Superbooth in Berlin where we showed two demo cases featuring the SSP: once case with Eric Synth modules and one case featuring Intellijel and Make Noise modules.

Both cases were set up to sample sounds into the SSP and then use them for granular or wavetable synthesis. Besides that we also demoed various cross-modulations, sending signals out of the SSP and back into it (e.g. control the WT oscillator using the Intellijel Planar joystick). At the same time we demoed the MIDI controller connectivity including MPE.

Several backers came by our table (you know who you are), and got a hands on demo on the SSP :-) Thanks so much for coming by and for your continued support. The feedback at superbooth was great, several press people shot videos and everyone was excited about the potential of the SSP. Backer Matt volunteered by demoing the SSP at our table (thank you!).

*** Software news ***

1) Multiple sample rates

We added buttons to the global page which allow you to switch sample rates. The SSP now supports three sample rates: 192kHz, 96kHz and 48kHz. Resolution for all sample rates is 32 bit. Each time you switch sample rate a small pop-up is shown in the global editor. By supporting multiple sample rates you gain additional flexibility when building patches and using the SSP.

2) Pitch calibration features

We added pitch inputs to all modules with a frequency input so they can be controlled easily using both the input jacks of the SSP using a CV pitch signal as well as with the MIDI module’s pitch signal. We also added calibration features to help you calibrate a CV keyboard pitch signal. Finally we also added a feature in the MIDI module that analyzes the frequency of an incoming signal such that when you control an oscillator using the SSP’s output jacks you can tune the oscillator to the correct pitch.

3) Parameter usability improvements

We went over all the parameters of the modules we currently have and tested the encoder step sizes and acceleration for each of the parameters to make sure they work well and that everything responds smoothly.

4) Workflow and UI improvements

Based on the feedback from our SSP tester and backer Matt we made a lot of UI and workflow improvements. Matt has been building some really big and impressive patches which is very helpful to find UI glitches and opportunities to improve the workflow. Thanks Matt!


5) DSP loop optimizations

We added a few important optimizations in the signal routing algorithm of our synthesis software so we can run even more modules on the SSP’s processor cores.

*** Next steps production ***

We are kitting parts and dropping them off at our subcontractor this week. As soon as we get the boards back and start assembling, testing and packaging the SSPs we’ll post a new update about the process.

*** Backer survey ***

We will be surveying all backers this week to collect shipping addresses. Since we can only survey everyone once we will collect votes for the stretch modules at the same time.

Thanks again for your support and patience,

Bert & Celine"

"The Yamaha SK50D is a massive (in sound and scale) late 80's analogue combo synthesiser with 6 different sections. It comprises of 2 different hammond-esque organ sections (one per keyboard) with leslie output, a Monosynth section (with aftertouch & CV-Gate), Solina-esque string synth & polysynth sections, and a seperate organ bass section.

It features dual 61-key keyboards for playing all the sections (including using the lower register of the bottom keyboard for the organ bass section), if you can hunt down the elusive Yamaha BP-2 organ bass pedals, you can use them with the SK50D to play the organ bass synth that way too.

This synthesiser is in excellent condition for its age & sounds fantastic."

"The QMMG is returning in a strictly limited black and gold edition, to be sold in person only, at Make Noise headquarters in Asheville, North Carolina during the Make Noise 10-Year Celebration Weekend. (Information here: http://www.makenoisemusic.com/yr-cele...)

The Quad Multi-Mode Gate is a huge riff on the original Buchla 292 Quad Lo-Pass Gate, including a Mix Out and all of the original feature set. The QMMG offers additionally: HiPass mode, Voltage Controlled Feedback, Direct Coupling and Normalizations so that multiple channels may easily be used together to create Bandpass Gates, steeper HP, BP or LP Filters or even something like a traditional Synthesizer Voice Architecture.

The QMMG contains no fewer than 8 Vactrols!

The reissue QMMG’s signal path is identical to the original. The Top board was re-engineered to use analog pots for mode selection instead of analog switches. The only change to the bottom board is the addition of reverse power protection."
