HWJ Extra - ’Noisevember' 28 2023 ImpOSCar 2 jam


video upload by SynthAddict

"'one synth/all parts' jam with noisy 'drums'

I made a live layered collage of sounds from the amazing ImpOSCar 2 - as it was live, timing got a little wonky. :-) has a little John Carpenter vibe…

I recently bought the last 'new old stock' Touch Digital Controller for ImpOSCar 2 on the planet. :-) It's glorious."

"Extremely rare, and no longer available - if you ever dreamed of a hardware polyphonic OSCar this is probably the closest anyone in this world will ever get (of course you'll need the ImpOSCar 2 software running to use it). Beautifully made, single-owner, home studio housed, and always protected with a dust cover when not in use. It needs a 9V DC, not included. In definitely near-mint condition, and the build quality is stunning - check those knobs for a start!! http://www.gforcesoftware.com... and http://www.synthtopia.com... Packing 8GBP - with such build quality this is seriously heavy at nearly 15kg !"

Bob Moog Foundation Announces impOSCar2 Controller Raffle Touch Digital Controllers™ and GForce Software Unite in Tribute to Moog Legacy

"ASHEVILLE, N.C. – September 19, 2011 – A raffle to benefit the Bob Moog Foundation begins today. Two lucky winners will each receive the new impOSCar2 Controller from Touch Digital Controllers and an entire suite of five virtual instruments from GForce software—a prize package valued at nearly $2,500. The raffle will continue until all 500 tickets have been sold. Because the BMF will be awarding two complete packages, each entry has a 1 in 250 chance of winning. Tickets are $20 each, or you can improve your odds by buying six for $100.

Raffle tickets are available from the Bob Moog Foundation’s Web store. Be sure to enter before all 500 tickets have sold out. Two winners chosen by a random-number generator will be announced once all 500 tickets are sold. The winner will be announced within 24 hours after that time. Raffle participants should check the Foundation’s website and social media outlets to learn when all 500 tickets have been sold and who the two winners are. The winners will be contacted by email.

The new impOSCar2 Controller provides a physical user interface for both the standalone and plug-in versions of GForce Software’s acclaimed impOSCar2 soft synth. The combination of software and hardware offers the sound and functionality of one of the most sought-after analog/digital hybrid synthesizers ever made—Oxford Synthesizer Company’s OSCar—brought up to date with automation, effects, 16-note polyphony, and tons of patch storage.

As a tribute to the memory of Bob Moog, Touch Digital Controllers donated not one, but two impOSCar2 Controllers to the BMF. One is produced in a hand-finished natural mahogany and the other in ebony black on oak. These beautifully made controllers deliver plenty of visual and tactile feedback to make programming impOSCar2 a pleasure, just like programming the original OSCar but with total recall. With 101 high-resolution knobs and buttons, every parameter is available from the controller’s front panel to remotely operate the software. In addition to its dedicated impOSCar functionality, the controller can be configured to control any software instrument that supports MIDI Learn.

“The impOSCar2 Controller is our first product, and we are proud of what we have been able to achieve with this handcrafted music instrument,” said Richard Lawson and Kent Spong of Touch Digital Controllers. “As synthesists, and as a manufacturer, we have been deeply inspired by the one man who pioneered the whole thing: Bob Moog.”

Released in July, GForce’s impOSCar2 breathes new life into the popular previous version, first launched in 2004. New features include more comprehensive modulation routing, an improved arpeggiator, ring modulation, panning mono and poly unison modes, and more than 1,000 signature patches. Add nine filter types, six portamento modes, and a programmable additive synthesis grid, and you have one powerful soft synth.

Want more? The BMF’s raffle winner will also receive licenses for M-Tron Pro, Minimonsta, Oddity, and Virtual String Machine, which realistically emulate the Mellotron, Minimoog, ARP Odyssey, and numerous polyphonic string synthesizers, while adding dozens of innovative touches. In addition, GForce Software has included the ChamberTron and OptiTron Expansion Packs for M-Tron Pro.

BMF Executive Director Michelle Moog-Koussa said, “Through the ImpOSCar2 Controller, Richard and Kent bring their love of vintage synthesizers into the design and ethos of this very special piece of handcrafted hardware. Bob’s goal was always to give musicians the highest level of expressivity, and his interface design was a big part of that. The construction of the ImpOSCar2 Controller echoes that commitment to musicians. Our many thanks to Richard, Kent, and the team at GForce Software for sharing their life's work with us. Their support is a tribute to Bob Moog's legacy and to the work of the Bob Moog Foundation.”

The Bob Moog Foundation (www.moogfoundation.org) honors the legacy of synthesizer pioneer Dr. Bob Moog through its mission of igniting the innovative and creative spirit at the intersection of music, science, and history. Its projects include Dr. Bob's SoundSchool, which brings electronic musical instruments into the schools to teach children science through music; the Archive Preservation Initiative, an effort to preserve and protect the inventor's extensive and historic archive; and the future Moogseum, an innovative educational, historic, and cultural facility that will bring Bob Moog's spirit alive to ignite innovation and creativity in children and adults. It will be located in Asheville, N.C., in the years ahead, pending necessary funding. The Bob Moog Foundation is an independent, donor-driven 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and is not formally affiliated with Moog Music, Inc."

RL Music Now Touch Digital Controllers Releases ImpOSCar Controller


"RL Music has been operating for 10 years as a specialist vintage synthesizer dealership and also a dealer for these amazing companies; Buchla, Mellotron, MacBeth, Kenton and Metasonix. Together, with Kent Spong of KSR - the restoration specialists, we have been able to breath life back into thousands of rare and valuable vintage instruments and work in a business that has represented a passion for us for over 35 years.

Through the work we have been involved in we have met many people around our small planet and the whole experience has been nothing short of wonderful. We would like to thank everyone for their support, custom and friendship.

Times have changed for everyone around the world in the last couple of years and we needed to move with them so it has been necessary to scale down the RL Music and KSR businesses to concentrate on an exciting new direction. The 'old' businesses still exist within Kent and I of course but it's time to move on...and move on we have.

With effect from today - the 4th July 2011, we have great pleasure in announcing the launch of our new business:

Touch Digital Controllers Ltd.

Touch Digital Controllers is a music instrument manufacturer and we launch with our first product - the impOSCar2 Controller. We have developed this hand-crafted, and quite unique instrument, working in association with the world-renown music software company - GForce Software Ltd. Many of you will know GForce for their stunning virtual analogue instruments: Minimonsta, M-Tron Pro, Oddity, Virtual String Machine and the impOSCar.

Our impOSCar2 Controller launch coincides with the GForce launch of their eagerly awaited release of the impOSC2 Software Instrument, full details of which can be found here: http://www.gforcesoftware.com/

If you would like to know more about our new venture, and why we are so excited to tell the world about it, then please visit our new website:

www.TouchDigitalControllers.co.uk

Our website will tell you all about our new company, our philosophy. why we are making the impOSCar2 Controller and why its so important to us and, we believe to musicians also.

We have a dedicated Facebook page and twitter feed which you can easily find through the Touch Digital website so you are warmly invited to join us. You are also most welcome to email me back for more information or just call me for a chat.

Thank you for your time reading this announcement, we know how busy everyone is these days, but if you have a spare moment then please take a look at what’s been keeping us busy for the last 8 months - we think you will like what you see!"

Update: some trivia for the archives and synth history: CustomSynth helped out and did the graphics for the control panels.
