Showcasing the String Armonica: Live Demo of a New Electro-Acoustic Synthesizer
video upload by The Sound Stone
"We are thrilled to showcase our new prototype: The String Armonica. This new electro-acoustic synthesizer employs electromagnets to resonate twelve distinct strings. Using the power of harmonic resonance, we've managed to design it to play up to 48 notes of full polyphony using a MIDI controller. All the sounds that this instrument produces originate solely from the vibrations of the strings themselves. Nested within the body of the instrument lies a a polyphonic synthesizer, which outputs notes that resonate the strings and they're octave harmonics.
The String Armonica works differently than how a guitar sustainer works. In a sustainer (Sound Stone, Ebow, etc), it will resonate a string regardless of its tuning. In order for the String Armonica to correctly work, the strings must be tuned so that they match the resonant frequency of the internal synthesizer. By adjusting the tuning pegs, you're able to 'voice' the loudness of each octave and can make certain octaves louder than others or of equal volume.
When you listen through headphones, the stereophonic output becomes evident as one set of strings is panned to the left and another to the right, creating a rich, immersive experience. However, a monophonic option is available as well.
The name of the instrument, 'The String Armonica,' pays homage to the rare Glass Armonica, an exquisite crystal glass instrument invented by Benjamin Franklin. The resemblance in the sound produced by our instrument to that of a Glass Armonica is very similar which is why we thought of this name.
In our improvisation demonstration, we explore the instrument's potential by adjusting the volume with an expression pedal and using the mod wheel of the MIDI controller to generate a staccato tremolo effect.
It's important to note that this is a prototype. In its current state, it may appear a bit rough around the edges due to several adjustments and changes we've made along the way. The final manufactured version will be significantly more refined and less crude.
For those interested in owning one of these innovative instruments, we encourage you to add your name and email to our pre-order list. Once we are ready to commence manufacturing, we will send you additional information and a purchase link.
Here's the pre-order link:

The Spectraphon modulated by Shepard Tones!
video upload by MAKEN0ISE
"Hello! It's Pete from the Make Noise Instagram channel, stopping by YouTube this week with a walkthrough of a recent favorite Spectraphon/Spiratone patch!
I know, I know, you're asking yourself WHICH recent favorite Spectraphon/Spiratone patch could he be referring to? There are so many. It's this one: https://www.instagram.com/p/CuHved6N3bP/
The patch was inspired by the functionality of the Buchla 297 Infinite Phase Shifter, and while it is not a recreation of the 297 it uses the module as a jumping off point for sonic exploration.
For more information on the Make Noise Soundhack Spiratone, please check out Walker's excellent overview video from the halcyon days of 2016: [posted here in 2015]

"This listing is for one ultra-rare Roland CPE-800 Compu Editor. This super rare piece is meant to control a rack VCA bank (not included) for automation of audio signals via CV. As you can see it is from the era of the TR-808 and Jupiter-8 with those beautiful tact switches.
The CPE records slider movements so you can lock the recording automation to a sync track. It works fine, it includes the unit itself and the cable originally meant to connect to the VCA unit; one idea would be to build a box to convert this connection into 3.5mm jacks to control all sorts of stuff. Otherwise, if you want to use this like it was originally intended, you'll either need to find one of the original VCA rack unit or DIY something similar."

If you want to use the Coral as an eight-voice polyphonic synth, Part is the watchword. In the case of this sequence, all eight voices share the filter, envelope and parameters of the synth engine (the same for all) because they are set on the same midi channel which groups them together in one big Part.
P.s.
The Strings engine might my favorite one"

kNoB technology Presents SGR1806-20

"SGR1806-20 eurorack module
First mini demo, line recording
More news coming soon"
via Wikipedia:
"SGR 1806−20 is a magnetar, a type of neutron star with a very powerful magnetic field, that was discovered in 1979 and identified as a soft gamma repeater. SGR 1806−20 is located about 13 kiloparsecs (42,000 light-years)[1] from Earth on the far side of the Milky Way in the constellation of Sagittarius. It has a diameter of no more than 20 kilometres (12 mi) and rotates on its axis every 7.5 seconds (30,000 kilometres per hour (19,000 mph) rotation speed at the surface). As of 2016, SGR 1806-20 is the most highly magnetized object ever observed, with a magnetic field over 1015 gauss (G) (1011 tesla) in intensity[2] (compared to the Sun's 1–5 G and Earth's 0.25–0.65 G)."
