"The Mochika features one square and saw waveform VCO with a huge pitch range (from subsonic to ultrasonic sound), one square and triangle waveform LFO (that modulates the VCO for the vibrato effect creating old school arcade Atari-like sounds), a white noise generator that triggers the VCO and can create percussion like sounds, an 8 step Sequencer with note on/off switch, and pitch knob for each step. Also the instrument is lit with 2 super bright leds that indicates the LFO and Sequencer Rate, and 8 leds to indicate the step that is being played. Very useful when you play it on a dark stage."

Merry Synthmas!!!

Hi everyone!  I wish you all a very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and a Festivus for the restofyas!  Thank you for all your support and well wishes.

Every year I like to put up one post on Christmas day. This year I decided to feature my newly acquired Atomo Synth KRAKKEN keyboard.  Look at that thing.  It turns out it's the perfect gift-sized synth! Not only does it look good, but it's one cool sounding synth.

Click on each pic for the supersized shot. 

I'll see you all tomorrow. Until then enjoy some time with your friends and family, and of course here on MATRIXSYNTH. :) Directly below you'll find my exclusive interview with Alessandro Cortini and be sure to see the holiday label for more synthy contributions this year.

Happy holidays folks!

Update: I'm going to start a new tradition this year. I'll be adding holiday content to this post as stuff comes in. I forget everyone just sits around the house all day, so I might as well do something. Check back often for updates. New stuff will be added to the bottom of post as it comes in.

Krakken Analog Synth Main Board

via Alfredo Aliaga aka Atomo Synth on Facebook.

Based on the pic getting a MATRIXSYNTH Jones tag, I'm curious if this one is mine. :) I've always wanted one, and I finally got around to ordering one. I can't wait for it to show up. A green two OSC Krakken analog synth from Peru. Going to have to break out the black light. Don't miss the AtomoSynth Krakken Radioactivity cover and the AtomoSynth Krakken YMO Rydeen cover. See the Atomo Synth label for more.


More glowing goodness here.

"Hello world, we have added a gate arpegiator to the Mochika XL with 4 patterns. while playing you can switch between eight notes in real time tweaking a knob. The gate arpegiator can be synchronized by midi at four different sync rates, and also you can change the sync rate while playing in real time tweaking a knob."

New AtomoSynth Mochika XL

via AtomoSynth

"Hello World, at last it is our new Mochika XL.

Let's make some serious noise!!! this machine is great for live performance and improvisation for creating insane effect loops, acid basslines or crazy random rhythms.
Make noise - experimental music, change the sound in real time by tweeking the knobs on stage or in studio.

Connect it to your favorite effects (delay, flange, etc, etc)and create a wide sort of rhytm textures and soundscapes.

Sync it to any midi device like a drumbox midi sequencer or computer and play live with this beautiful lighted analog sequencer synth box!!!.

Specifications
This synth features one analog square and saw waveform VCO (voltage controled oscillator) with a huge pitch range, from subsonic to ultrasonic sound.

Glide effect with a large range for radical portamento effect.

One square and triangle waveform LFO (low frequency oscillator), that modulates the VCO for the vibrato effect or the VCF for a tremolo effect, creating old school arcade Atari-like sounds.

White noise generator that triggers the VCO and can create percussion like sounds, or mix the the noise with the VCO.

Also, it has a built in vactrol based Low Pass and High Pass Filter with cut off and peak controls and a envelope generator with decay control to create a wide sort of timbres and sound possibilities.

Built in 8 step sequencer with global gate time control, note on/off switch and pitch slider for each step.

Then built in sequencer also has 8 playing modes:
Oscillator mode, the Mochika becomes a drone oscillator, you can select in real time between the 8 notes tweaking a knob.
4 step, 6 step, and 8 step sequencer mode.
4 step, 6 step, and 8 step forth and back sequence mode.
Random mode, it generates a large pseudo random sequence, seed of chaos!!!

The Mochika XL features a MIDI input to sync it any midi device sending midi clock signals, the mochika can sync 1, 2, 4 and up to 8 times the tempo of the master clock midi device.

Also the instrument is ligthed with 1 bright red led that indicates the LFO Rate, and 8 red leds to indicate the step that is being played. Very useful when you play it on a dark stage.

The Analog Sequencer is packed in a cool laser cut clear acrilic case that shows all the hand made analog circuitry.

The instrument is powered directly from 110V or 220V AC depending of the country.
Dimensions: 177mm(W), 228 mm(D), 80mm(H. incuded rubber feet and knobs)"

"This is an awesome analog synth 16 step sequencer. Made by a man in peru, who i think is a genius. This unit is no longer in production! You can program 4 sequences in each bank and play them together. You can sync the tempo to midi. Sounds amazing, and looks great in the dark! Extremely easy to use."

"Atomolabs Medussa Bass Synth/Sequencer

This is an interesting sequencing synthesizer. I have had it for a while, but I am not using it anymore, so I am selling to save up for somthing else I want.

You do have to program the patterns to use this synth.. It is very simple to use, but requires some patience and skill. It would be good to use in live performances or in the studio.

Here is the manual! :)

* At the bottom there is a row of four buttons, pressing the "+>" button, you can find the parameter you want to edit (pattern number, tempo, midi sync, pattern edit or save). (This is a 16-step sequencer.)
* In pattern edit, select a step with "+" or "-" and press "OK"
* Then use the pitch knob to change the pitch of the step. Use "0" to put a rest on the step. Press OK to continue for other steps in the pattern.
* Use the other knobs to customize the sound just like any synth.
* Can be triggered by external MIDI.
* Runs on 120v AC, power cord included.
