G-Storm Electro Introduces Spring Tank Reverb Driver Version 2

video upload by gstormelectro

"Audio + Video by G-Storm Electro c. 2023

Introducing my Spring Tank Reverb Driver version 2. Same great sound and features as before. But now in 4HP with added Feedback knob. The Drive setting is now a trimmer on the PCB Set-and-forget. In today's video I will be auditioning the module with a few different spring tanks and various patch scenarios. Like pairing the reverb with Synthrotek DLY. While my driver module is optimized for Medium length tanks, it can easily be modded to handle long and short size tanks well. Which one is your favorite? Special thanks to my friend Seth, for contributing Behringer System 2500 sounds and footage for this episode!

On the 2500 patches, the dry signal was mult-ed such that the wet/dry mix was handled by a mixer off camera. Audio has been recorded direct, no other mastering or posts effects.

"Spring Tank Reverb is an 4HP wide Eurorack driver module for use with a variety of spring tanks. Features a CV control of the wet/dry mix. NEW in version 2: 4HP, Added Feedback pot, Drive is now a set-and-forget trimmer on the PCB.

FEATURES

Pots: Tone, Feedback, CV of wet/dry amount, Initial Wet/Dry amount. Drive trimmer for accommodating various spring tanks. Signal strength LED indicator. RCA jacks on the back of the module for mounting tank internally in the case. Included: 10-to-16 pin ribbon cable. Not included: Reverb tank and RCA cables (sold separately)

CHOOSING A TANK

GROUNDING CONNECTORS (5TH character in tank model #) Type A or C is best. SIZE & NUMBER OF SPRINGS | Short length and Medium Length is best. Long length (approx. 16”) may need resistor R8 decreased to 100-ohms for a boost in power. I am happy to switch the resistor for you based on your needs, just let me know before I ship your order out. 2 or 3 number of springs are known to work well. INPUT IMPEDANCE | (2ND character in tank model #) | any except “F” (1475 ohms, has not been tested). OUTPUT IMPEDANCE | (3RD character in tank model #) |“B” known to work best, all others untested. TANKS THAT WERE TESTED AND KNOWN TO WORK WELL | Vintage Folded Line, Medium size, 3-spring, as those used in a Roland Space Echo | Accutronics BAB3C1B Medium size, as taken from a Fender Sidekick Amp | Accutronics 4AB3C1B Long size 16”, 2-spring (R8 to be changed to 100-ohms for best performance). MOST RECOMMENDED | Ruby Tubes 2EB2C1B short size 9”, 2-spring, has plenty of drip and feedback with a size to fit many different case scenarios.

SPECs

Module Depth: 50mm | Current Demand: +12V 39mA, -12V 34mA, 5V not used

Note: due to RCA jack placement and chunkiness of some RCA plugs, it may not be feasible to mount this module on the bottom row of your system rack. Please refer photos. A workaround that might work is to try a cable with 90-degree RCA plug ends."

Introducing the Behringer 2500 Series Clocked Sequential Control Module 1027

video upload by Behringer

"With our 2500 series nearing completion, we introduce the CLOCKED SEQUENTIAL CONTROL MODULE 1027.

The 1027 module is an 8-position step sequencer module from the legendary 2500 series.

As with all our 2500 series modules, the 1027 is an authentic reproduction of the circuitry from the historic 1970’s system.

The 1027 has 8 rows of 3 controls which provide 3 independently adjustable voltage outputs for each step of the counter and is fitted with a built-in base generator, allowing the sequencer to step automatically.

The 1027 can be used to control other 2500 series modules including the 1026 Preset Voltages or 1050 Mix Sequencer modules.

If you’re simply wanting to add an authentic 2500 series style sequencer to your setup, the 1027 is fully Eurorack compatible, allowing for connectivity with any compatible +12 volt and - 12 volt modules.

List Price: $149 (in stock and immediately shipping from our factory)"

EP 1 - New 2500 Modules - AM1004P Oscillator Mixer

video upload by O.Z. Hall

"This video is the first in a series on a number of new modules from Amsynths which are companions to the Behringer ARP 2500 series of eurorack modules.

Besides introducing the series, this video explores the AM1004P expander from Amsynths for the Behringer 1004 VCO in the 2500 series.

Here are excerpts from Amsynths description of this module:

The AM1004P module enables the Behringer 1004 module to be transformed from a T (toggle) version into a P (potentiometer version).

The AM1004P module has individual outputs available on jack sockets. Each waveform can also be mixed, using five small trimmer potentiometers, into the output channel, which has an overall MIX LEVEL potentiometer. and two mix jack socket outputs.

The AMSynths AM1004P fills in a piece of history by recreating the original ARP design using a Behringer 1004 module as a basis for expansion.

Analogue Solutions Introduces the TC5000 - ARP 2500 Inspired Synthesizer

video upload by sonicstate

"Tom's stand is hard to miss, always something massive and/or impressive to catch your attention ;-]

This year it's the turn of the TC5000, a synthesizer drawing inspiration from the ARP2500 with a patch matrix system along the lines of those he has developed since the Vostok. The TC5000 has a unique mix of circuits - compiled from years of development in products like the Fusebox and Colossus - and its user interface, for ease of patching across upper and lower matrices.

With a host of modules, including oscillators, filters, sequencers, and dual spring reverbs, Tom plans to provide a comprehensive package, with potential expansions through additional "wings" or systems.

Price is expected to be in the £22K range, available towards the end of the year"




This one is in via Soviet Space Child.

via Analogue Solutions:

"ANALOGUE PATCH PIN MATRIX SYNTH

This product is so new, we haven’t even finished this web page!

The selection of modules that will be configured in the final system will differ from the pre-production unit features in the current photographs.

WE ARE TAKING PRE-ORDERS NOW (DEPOSIT REQUIRED).
ETA TOWARDS THE END OF THE YEAR.

This is not an ARP2500 clone! TC5000 ustilises Analogue Solutions’ own circuits. Some are adapted from our other stunning synthesizers, like Leipzig, Telemark and Fusebox. Plus some new designs especially for this synthesizer.

TC5000 features two full width patch pin matrix panels that provide the same kind of UI experience that made the ARP2500 so incredible.

Using TC5000 for sounds design will give you a similar experience to the ARP. User interface is a very important aspect of sound design. It really isn’t all about the filter. How you interact with a synth is equally important. Different UI and working approaches means you will come up with patches you might otherwise not have come across using say, patch leads."

Behringer ARP 2500

video upload by Robin Rimbaud-Scanner

"The ARP 2500 was an analogue modular synthesiser created by ARP Instruments, manufactured from 1970 through 1981. I have come to accept that I will never own an original, so have built my own modest micro ARP 2500 using the recent Behringer remodels. This has probably saved me about £30k. Today was my first chance to really play with the system and see what emerged. It feels like a very capable and inspiring system so far, so let's see where it takes me in the future then.

Everything you hear is the ARP 2500, with a little added NI REPLIKA XT on the final mix."

Introducing the Behringer 2500 Series Mix-Sequencer Module 1050

video upload by Behringer

"With the recent introduction of our 1027 CLOCKED SEQUENTIAL CONTROL MODULE, we now introduce the 1050 MIX-SEQUENCER MODULE, completing our 2500 series.

An authentic reproduction of the historic circuitry, the 1050 module allows for sequential switching for rapid selection of waveforms and signals in a conventional audio signal format.

Fitted with dual 4-input mixers with electronically gated inputs, 8-step sequencer counter, and clock.

Each of the 8 audio inputs has its own attenuator and each dual output is fitted with a master gain control.

The 1050 can also be used as an 8-input mixer with 2 adjustable outputs or as 2 separate 4-input mixers.

The illuminated pushbuttons allow for selecting and indicating which inputs are gated.

The 1050 can either be clocked externally or internally controlled when connected to the 1027 CLOCKED SEQUENTIAL CONTROL MODULE.

List Price: $149 (in stock and immediately shipping from our factory)."

AM1028 Sequential Volts - Expand your Behringer 1027 Sequencer

video upload by AMSynths

"AMSynths expands the B1027 sequencer with an additional column of eight steps of control voltage. The included 12-way ribbon cable connects the two modules internally. CV outputs of 2V and 10V ranges are available. The 2V output is ideal for VCO's and can be patched via a quantizer (used in the video). The 1028 was envisaged by ARP in 1970 but never manufactured until now."

"This 8HP module expands the capability of the Behringer 1027 sequencer by adding an additional column of variable control voltages. The module connects to the B1027 with an included 12 way ribbon cable.

The eight steps of the 1027 are mirrored in the 1028 with three precision control voltage outputs; one at 2V for controlling VCO's and two at 10V for controlling filters, amplifiers and VC env gens.

In 1970 ARP planned to make a slave module for the 2500 1027 sequencer but it never made it into production or prototype stage.

The AMSynths AM1028 fills in a piece of history by recreating the Slave Module, which we call Sequential Volts. It is an easy to understand and use module; just plug it into the Behringer 1027 module with the included 12-way cable and enjoy another column of step CV's!

The AM1028 can be placed next to the Behringer 1027 or close to the module it is controlling, reducing patch cable lengths. Multiple AM1028 modules can be connected to one long ribbon cable, thanks to the CMOS buffering chips and diode protection in the module. or the AMSEQBUS pcb can be used to connect mutiple modules.
High quality Alpha potentiometers and Rogan knobs have been used to ensure control voltages can be easily set and adjusted. The 2V output is designed to drive VCO's and increases the resolution of the control pots."

The Melodicer is really the star of the show in this video, admittedly it is an expensive module but if you are patient they do come up on the used market for good prices, that's how I bought mine.

And the Matriarch? Even though it's Moog and it sells for a lot of money it is IMHO the Bargain of the Century: Four wonderful sounding VCO's, two beautiful sounding analogue low pass transistor ladder filters in stereo configuration, two gorgeous sounding analogue bucket brigade delays in stereo configuration, and more modular patch points than you can shake a stick at.
