#jamuary2020 Day 9 - Arturia MiniBrute 2S, Korg Monologue and Volca Kick

Published on Jan 9, 2020 Oscillator Sink

See the Synthuary label for more. Synthuary because these are the Jamuary synth videos. More below.

"There was another jam all ready to record before this one came about, but at the last moment I pulled a creative hissy-fit, tore the patch down and went in a very different direction.

The Minibrute is heading through the trusty Zoom MS-CDR70 providing two lots of delay (to add rhythmic interest) and a reverb (because reverb). The Monologue is heading through the Digitech Polara reverb (because reverb) and the Volca Kick is dry as a bone (because I ran out of pedals)."

Analogue Solutions Impulse Command with Drumbrute Impact

Published on Dec 4, 2019 Perfect Circuit

"The Analogue Solutions Impulse command is a semi-modular synth with a full analog synth voice, integrated effects, and an integrated sequencer. Paired here with Arturia's DrumBrute Impact, we put the Impulse Command through its paces to create a full track.

With a stereo filter and stereo digital effects, the Impulse Command can occupy a huge amount of space in a mix—this paired with its ability to create everything from trance leads to brutal percussion and all the sonic debauchery you'd expect from a full modular system. The Impulse Command is more than just a synthesizer: it's a dynamic, powerful tool for all sorts of studio and performance work.

"Impulse Command is a compact true analogue synth in a neat, smart, package. When we say ‘real analogue’ we mean that the entire audio path (aside from the post effects of course!) and all modulation are entirely analogue, using circuits based on awesome sounding vintage 1970s designs. Their circuits are not locked down by CPUs. Controls are not quantised and read by CPUs. With the exception of the essential digital elements (that is MIDI conversion, sequencer control and digital delay/reverb), Impulse Command really is analogue and the sound benefit is immediately apparent!

The synth has been designed by Tom Carpenter, a musician and a big fan of electronic music. He knows how to program a synth and what should be expected. It was not designed by an engineer or steered by committee or men in suits. Design wasn’t constrained in order to bring maximum profit to share holders! So, the modulation choices and range of sounds they produced have all been carefully thought out and quickly give you those sounds you want: huge bass, synth leads, percussion, effects, modular style sounds."

"The Impulse Command is a very unique analog synth. Its got a stereo filter section, digital effects, and an interesting loop sequencer. This is a great box for generating musical ideas and inspiration. There is a full row of patch points for interfacing with other desktop synths and Eurorack systems, and of course MIDI interfacing. This synth is in great shape and includes the original box and power supply."

Analogue Solutions Impulse Command and Fusebox synced via DAW

Published on Oct 2, 2019 rezfilter

"More Impulse Command and Fusebox!

Here's a quick little jam featuring sounds from these synths only being played live.

Logic is sending MIDI clock start/stop to the Digitakt drum machine, which is then sending clock to the Impulse Command synth.

The Generator Step Sequencer is also receiving noted clock from the DAW (great way to sync) and is being played live via the touch pads. This modulates the pitch of the Impulse Command as well as the filter.

The Fusebox is being played live via the keyboard but is clocked (Patternator) via the DAW.

No external effects were used on either synth (Impulse Command FX can be heard when they are activated).

Recognize the tune? I cut it short as you can get lost in the fun ;)

Enjoy!"

Meet Colossus - Analogue Solutions Rendition of the Classic EMS SYNTHI 100

You might remember Analogue Solutions EMS SYNTHI 100 for sale from previous posts. It appears they have put it to good use and designed their own version. P.S. I spotted this earlier this morning, but thanks to Soviet Space Child for sending in the link.

via Analogue Solutions:

"Available direct only... Come see Colossus at SynthFest (UK, 5/Oct)

Numbers will be limited - we are currently taking pre-orders, ready to ship in early 2020.

This is truly something special.

Price is £25K. This exclude any tax (most likely you can claim it back through your business). Shipping: Outside of UK it would need to be crated, onto a pallet, then freighted. Shipping and crating likely to be 500-1000GBP. If you aren’t too far from Calais there maybe other options.

WHAT IS COLOSSUS?
Analogue Solutions is excited to introduce Colossus, an exciting new mega-synth with a design ethos truly from the dawn of analogue synths. It is more than a powerful analogue ‘workstation’ - it is also art, architecture, exquisite studio furniture.

Design inspiration is of course from the 1970’s EMS Synthi 100, however, no circuit from the Synthi has been cloned or copied. We prefer to make our own designs. We have chosen some of our favourite circuits from our own large back catalogue synths such as Polymath, Telemark and Vostok.

Colossus is not a Synthi 100 clone - all circuits are non-EMS, Analogue Solutions’ design.

Analogue Solutions Impulse Command Played and Sequenced via CV Control

Published on Sep 12, 2019 rezfilter

"Here's a quick little video of the Analogue Solutions Impulse Command being played (as a standard synth would be played!) and also taking the same sound and sequencing then transposing it via the Impulse Command's internal analogue sequencer.

Not only does the IC excel at creating some of of the best analogue sequencer loops you can muster, but it's also a fantastic, versatile and playable synth controllable via MIDI or CV.

Note: The custom blue face is limited in supply. Contact AS regarding this point.

Enjoy!"

Live Studio Synth Jam Analogue Solutions CV-ONLY (no midi)

Published on Sep 12, 2019 rezfilter

"Here's a little fun, loosely filmed, live jam using only CV (no MIDI) with a handful of synths (mostly Analogue Solutions) including a couple of classics -- ObieRack (little bass) + ARP 2600 (kick).

The Impulse Command (ltd. blue edition) was played live while the other synths were driven live by analogue sequencers (chained) and were tweaked live.

Enjoy!"

Analogue Solutions PRO TIP: Impulse Command Controlling Pitch via the 16-Step Sequencer

Published on Aug 25, 2019 Analogue Solutions

"Analogue Solutions Impulse Command PRO TIP!

The IC's 16-step CV sequencer is primarily used for modulation since the MIDI Note Loop sequencer would ordinarily be used for note control.

However, you can patch (with a cable!) the CV sequencer output to
the Pitch control input jack if you want the step sequencer to also control pitch.

Note: we do not sell the LED patch cables. The blue panel is a very limited edition version.

Have fun!"

Analogue Solutions Impulse Command & Fusebox x 2 New Toys!!!

Published on Aug 8, 2019 Sounds From The Shed

"These just arrived this morning, just finishing setting them up and hope to have something musical put out by tomorrow evening or Saturday at the latest :)
I'd parted with quite a bit of AS gear and really regretted it so am rebuilding :) All synth sounds are AS Telemark."

Impulse Command and Wine

Published on Aug 8, 2019 Sounds From The Shed

"This may or may not be tuneful, but it was a sunny day in Northern Ireland I had a few beverages and played about in the Shed with the new toys and came up with this. I'll give it a more detailed examination when I'm thinking straighter :)

It's a brief play about with the IC being modulated and transposed by the Generator sequencer."

One synth that sounds like four! Impulse Command from Analogue Solutions // Superbooth 2019

Published on May 18, 2019 DivKidVideo

"My head turned when I heard what sounded like four synth layers playing. Two synth parts in stereo, noise hits, percussive hits etc all out of a single Impulse Command from Analogue Solutions. The way the stereo filter works and sequencing works to inject pitch modulation, noise, unique filter steps and settings creates a lot of dynamic and interesting patterns very quickly. Impressive work with that classic vintage analogue synth vibe that we know from Analogue Solutions in a performance friendly 'tweakers' synth."

Analogue Solutions Impulse Command Mix Demo feat. Marnie "Hearts on Fire"

Published on Apr 24, 2019 rezfilter

Impulse Command Synthesizer
Stereo synth -- headphones or speakers required!!

Here's a musical demo of the Analogue Solutions Impulse Command synthesizer at work in the studio featuring a variety of custom sounds ranging from percussion, bass and leads to other rhythmic effects.

All sounds and patches in this video are 100% Impulse Command, including all drums and effects. Analogue loops, bass lines and percussion were generated with the synth's onboard analogue sequencer and recorded individually into Logic.

This isn't a full remix, but rather an example showcasing the many sides and potential of this true sonic realiser.

The amazing vocal for "Hearts on Fire" is Helen Marnie of Marnie (and Ladytron).
