"This modular system is a modern dedication to Alan R. Pearlman (AKA ARP). It uses the instrument list structure from the arp 2600.

Instead of making another clone arp 2600, I wanted to make an updated synthesiser, like an Arp 2700 type of project.

So there are many extra functions on this system, not found on the original arp2600. The only Arp 2600 circuit that is an exact clone, is the Analog Switch.

All the potentiometers are metal knurled type. Knobs are soft touch Black and White.

There are no internal patches. All connections must be manually made between module sections, this is a fully Modular System.

The only modules I did not include are: Reverb FX and Internal Speakers.

(These take care of the Reverb FX and Speakers situation.)

The FX send and Return module lets you patch a stereo fx rack or pedal. I felt this was better than using an old noisy Spring Tank.

The monitoring 1u module lets you patch a stereo cable to a JBL portable speaker for example for monitoring.

The monitoring amp can also be used for headphone monitoring.

In a room full of synthesizer systems, the Darpa Modular Synth will always turn heads or get asked "What about this one?". It is just a gorgeous looking instrument.

Opus II - Full Album by Omri Cohen & Interview

Omri Cohen

"In the last couple of months, I've recorded every week a piece of music, practicing and learning my setup, and I thought that maybe it's a good idea to collect a few of those pieces and release them as a sort of a collection album. I remixed and remastered all the tracks especially for this album.

20Objects Podcast 321: Omri Cohen

Published on Apr 12, 2020 20Objects

An interview with supporting member, Omri Cohen.

"When one of the listeners suggested Omri Cohen for an interview, I had to do a little research. And 'a little' is key - one quick search on YouTube made it clear that this was someone I'd want to talk to. And once we started chatting, we got on a roll - Omri is a great cat, and is so open to sharing, that we got on like brothers.

Whether it's talking about his background or his approach to hybrid modular systems, he combines a deep understanding about what he's doing with a relaxed way of explaining that causes everything to immediately make sense. That's an amazing gift - and makes him one of the most effective tutorial-makers out there.

If you want to check out his videos, the easiest way is to check out his channel. He also releases music on Bandcamp - some of which he features as 'Making Of..." options on his video channel - at https://omricohencomposer.bandcamp.com/. I love his work, and this has really inspired me to make some interesting work in our now-isolated meta-world.

Enjoy!"

New Limited Edition BLUEPRINT Poster from SYNTH EVOLUTION

You might remember the original poster from SYNTH EVOLUTION posted back in 2018.

Oli of SYNTH EVOLUTION, wrote in to let us know he has a new edition of the poster. Details:

"It’s a silk-screened print on high grade paper in the brand new colour of blueprint blue. I’ve only made 30 hand-numbered prints and they really are gorgeous and a joy to look at! All the facts about 99 of the best synths of 20th century, designed to be a talking point for any studio or home.

At a limited price for £30 ($36) till Sun 19th, now’s the time to grab one!"

More details and buy online at www.synthevolution.net"

"Synth Evolution are proud to announce the launch of this gorgeous, updated, ‘blueprint blue’ edition of Synths Greatest Hits.

For a limited time, you could own one of thirty limited edition, hand numbered, prints. Silkscreened onto high quality 270gsm paper, this is a treat for the eyes as well as the synth-obsessed brain!

The poster is an intricately researched and painstakingly designed A1 poster featuring exactly 99 of the most iconic, important and interesting synths of the 20th century.

Featuring the same illustration style as the original A0 Synth Evolution poster, it now includes a selection of drum machines such as the Roland TR-808, TR-909, LinnDrum and samplers such as the NED Synclavier II, Fairlight CMI, Akai S1000 and Ensoniq Mirage.

Each synth is accompanied by a short description explaining it’s importance - for example how the Arp 2600 was used for the voice of R2D2, or that the Eminent 310 was the string sound used by Jean-Michel Jarre on Equinoxe I. Not only that, but the synthesis type is indicated, along with maximum polyphony and numbers of oscillators per voice.

All-in-all, it is a cornucopia of information and connections, guaranteed to keep any synth fan occupied for hours, and will provide a fascinating talking point for the studio or home.

Video in the listing previously posted here.

"The synth came from a smoke free studio, it has a couple of knicks in the wood end cheeks and on one of the end cheeks is what appears to be duct tape adhesive residue. It was like this when I bought it, other than that, it's fully functional.

The Chroma Polaris was the second synthesizer made by Fender/Rhodes after they took over ARP, following their classic . It has a classic analog ARP-like sound, kind-of tinny but also fat. Sounds can be layered up to 6 voices. It has typical analog synth controls including a cool 'sweep' knob for sweeping through the LFO or analog filter cutoff parameters. It also has a simple real-time sequencer and 132 memory patches.

There's also a nice and colorful layout with sliders similar to Roland Juno synths, membrane push-buttons and a large velocity sensitive 61-note keyboard making the Chroma Polaris a very nice synth. Fully MIDI-equipped, the Polaris will transmit and receive all its edit controls through MIDI as well as the ability to play up to three patches at once."

Moog One Sound

Published on Apr 12, 2020 Boele Gerkes

Playlist:

1. Moog One Sound #1

So... after more than a year of doubts, I finally dared to purchase a Moog One, and the thing goes beyond my wildest dreams...

This first recording is a simple two oscillator sound, where I modulate the wave shape of oscillator 1 and 2 (saw/sine) with a random shaped LFO and the pitch with another saw tooth shaped LFO. A little delay from the One does the rest.

You can easily get in 'Cortini'-territory if you like: Buchla-esque types of sounds. Not in the last place because of the incredible musical envelopes with all their stage curve shaping possibilities.

But also because of the character of the oscillators. WELL done Moog!

2. Moog One Sound #2

This one is a bit more experimental. It's three arps not synced to master clock and all three running at a slightly different speed. :)
I start with arp 1 on solo, then 2, then 3, then all three.

3. Moog One Sound #3

Allright, the last one for today: this is a more conventional arp sound, both synced to the master clock. Two layers with the same sound however one of them 1 octave up. Arp play mode is "random" on both layers. Dotted delay does the rest. There is a slight part of ring modulation in the mixer. The ring modulator is pure heaven by the way.
