I Bid Thee Farewell | Prophet 5 rev 4 x OB6

video upload by hvegel

"a Prophet 5 somehow just landed in the nest. this plays like a joy, no other."

Epic Bells 🔔 (Hapax sequencing Nymphes + Bigsky // Minitaur // Tanzbar + Boum // Waldorf M v1.10)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"In this track, the Hapax is sequencing all 5 instruments: Nymphes + Bigsky reverb (PADS), Tanzbar + Boum warming unit (DRUMS), Minitaur (BASS), M (BELLS) and S-1 (PLUCK CHORDS).
I've used a few of the cool features of the Hapax as the FILL button, the MIDI effects (MIDI ECHO introduced in v2.0, RANDOMIZER, HARMONIZER...), step probabilities, CC automation etc.

It's also the first track featuring the M with the v1.10 firmware, and the Oto Machines - Boum effect 🤩🔥!
I've been hesitating for a long time to get one as I already have the Elektron Analog Heat MKII 😊 But I really don't regret buying one finally as it can really modify the sound in a way that the Analog Heat can't (the Analog Heat doesn't really have a compressor, but it can be simulated using its internal envelope follower).

* Hardware used *

// PADS:Dreadbox Nymphes (6-voice analog synth) + Strymon Bigsky (reverb)
// DRUMS: MFB Tanzbar (16-voice analog drum machine) + Oto Machines Boum "Warming Unit" (stereo analog compressor, distortion, filter...)
// BASS: Moog Minitaur (analog mono synth)
// BELLS: Waldorf M (8-voice digital/analog hybrid synth)
// PLUCK CHORDS: Roland S-1 (4-voice digital synth, inspired by the famous mono synth SH-101)
// SEQUENCER: Squarp Instruments Hapax (firmware v2.0) sequencing all 5 instruments

Recorded in one shot and mixed in Ableton Live. A bit of chorus was added post recording on the BASS played by the Minitaur, in order to add more depth to the sound."

Moog Asheville Store Closes Shop

via @moogsynthesizers

"Since opening in 2011, the Moog Store has served as a public portal to the Moog factory, inviting passionate synthesists to come inside and experience the sonic capabilities of Moog first-hand, as well as have access to new electronic instruments and devices in person. Containing 60 years of revolutionary synthesizer technology, the Moog Store has been a destination for those who wish to create, explore, and be inspired.

As we prepare for the next chapter of Moog Music, the Moog Store will be closing its doors. Our factory will remain open, and our talented engineers will still be in there, hand-crafting the instruments that define us. Our shift away from brick-and-mortar sales allows us greater bandwidth to focus on researching and developing the next generation of synthesizers and support more classic Moog releases.

To those who have visited the store to explore our instruments, participate in our workshops and factory tours, and engage with our engineers and designers, we have the utmost gratitude. We encourage everyone to visit the Moogseum in downtown Asheville at 56 Broadway Street where Bob Moog’s legacy is carried forward through education and archive preservation. We too are committed to his legacy of innovation and excellence and look forward to sharing the work we have been doing with you all soon."

Sequential Prophet Rev2 + Chase Bliss Mood MKII // Degraded arpeggios

video upload by Django

"I recorded this simple sequence while playing around with the arpeggiator on the Rev2.
I love how the Mood degrades the sound and creates underlying textures."

In Conversation: Tony Rolando and Alessandro Cortini Discuss Bruxa's Development | Make Noise

video upload by MAKEN0ISE

"We were fortunate to be joined by our friend Alessandro Cortini here in Asheville recently. He and Tony Rolando met up at Drop of Sun Studios to discuss the development process of their latest collaboration: Bruxa.

Bruxa is a new evolution of Tony and Alessandro’s original prototype circuits which eventually became the Strega’s Time/Filter Experiment. In this freewheeling conversation, Tony and Alessandro discuss everything from the initial concept designs from which both Strega and Bruxa were born, Alessandro's recent series of concerts (wherein he improvises on a pair of Stregas and a pair of 0-CTRLs), the 'Scared System' and more!

Bruxa is a special release that will be available by pre-order only. Orders will be shipping out to dealers this October. Contact your favorite Eurorack dealer for details and availability.

Thanks again to Drop of Sun for hosting us!!
