Papernoise Worked on the New UI for Audulus 3

Thought this was an interesting little bit of synth trivia for the archives. Papernoise has mainly been known for his hardware designs across the modular market and he recently designed a new case for the Sonic Potions LXR. It looks like he also worked with Taylor on the new UI for Audulus 3.

"Audulus 3 is now finally done (in case you don’t know, I’ve been working with Taylor on the new UI), Dec 8 is the scheduled, official release date. You might not want to miss it, since it will come with a discounted price for everybody, and this new version has no more “in app purchases”. Buy it once and get the whole pack of goodies, and there’s really a lot coming with this new version!"

"Note: Glitching is not in Audulus - it's from how I had to route my audio to record the video."

Playlist:
1. Bimini Road - Audulus 3.0 Preview
2. Bimini Road - Audulus Dark Ambient Improv 10/18/15 3.0 Beta

3. Audulus Patch - Polyphon (Work in Progress) - "No sound - just a demonstration of the visualizer on a patch in progress with the new Audulus 3.0 RGB LED and front panel meters."

4. Bimini Road - Audulus Patch - The Warpeggiator - "The Warpeggiator works by using keyboard input to control step values in a sequencer. The Warpeggiated sound is panned a little more towards the left - an unaffected keyboard input is more in the right. The the button turns feedback on an off, which uses the output of the sequencer to control the key input routing to each step (the Pattern control). Using the Touched Clock with the Warpeggiator allows for infinitely unique and grooving patterns, from the melodic and ethereal to the nasty and growling.

Happy New Year everyone!

I want to start by thanking everyone that comes to MATRIXSYNTH and helps make it what it is - the readers, the supporters, and of course all the sponsors on the right.

THANK YOU and have a GREAT 2015!!!

This site is a labor of love and a ton of work. This site is ultimately meant to be an testament to everything synth in the making. We have over nine years of daily synth history captured here, 119,983 published posts. I can't wait to see what the future brings us in 2015!

That said, here are a few interesting bits from 2014 in the longest post of the year. ;)

Happy New Year! The Year in Synths 2013

Happy New Year Everyone!

What a busy year it has been in the world of synths.

This is going to be one doozy of a post, so bear with me. This post is a review of the year in synths for 2013. We begin with Tributes to Those We Lost This Year, followed by New Manufacturers & Makers, Older Manufacturers Added to the Site, New Gear Announcements, Top 10 Posts by Traffic,  My Standout Posts for the Year, and finally This Years' Synth Events. I did my best to keep things as short and concise as possible.

Let's begin with the hardest part of the post.

Tributes to Those We Lost This Year

RIP Bernard Parmegiani - Electronic & Acoustic Composer
Lou Reed RIP
RIP Dick Raaymakers aka Kid Baltan
RIP George Duke - DreamWeaver
RIP Ralph Dyck, Sept 28, 1941 – May 20, 2013
RIP Ray Manzarek

All missed and never to be forgotten. Take a moment to remember them.

New Manufacturers & Makers

Starting last January, I decided to keep a running list of every new manufacturer and maker introduced to the site during the year.  This is something I haven't done before and I thought it would be interesting to see how many there were in the year.   It's easy to focus on the big synth announcements throughout the year, but what about all the new makers and brands? I shouln't have to go considerably into the significance of new designers on the scene, so I'll just say two things regarding them.  One, the number of new makers is a direct reflection on the interest in our scene, and two, these are the creators of new gear which directly translate into new designs not previously available to us.  Think about that for a moment.  These are makers and designs that did not exist before.  They are part of our synth history.  So what is the total count of new synth designers for the year? A whopping 113. Think about that a bit. One hundred and thirteen new synth designers and brands this year alone.

Here they are (note a handful date back to 2012, but 2013 marked their momentum and availability):

Audulus 2.0 Released for Mac and IPad

Audulus 2.0 from Taylor Holliday on Vimeo.
New features in Audulus 2.0. Many thanks to the Audulus beta testers for their thorough testing of this release!

"Audulus 2.0 Released for Mac and IPad:
Math. Timing. Speed.

Audulus 2.0 introduces the Math Expression Node which allows you to enter math expressions, opening up another level of sonic possibilities.

Maybe you'd like to simulate the overtones of a piano? Or build a 3-operator FM synth? Or snap pitches into a chromatic scale? Maybe you'd like to create your own oscillator waveform? Or, possibly a custom wave-shaper? With the new Audulus Math Expression Node, all these and more are now within your reach.

Audulus 2.0 also introduces the Timing Mode, a feature which shows how much CPU time each node is taking. This gives you the information you need to squeeze every bit of performance out of your iPad or Mac.

Both the Math Expression Node and Timing Mode can be unlocked in the new Audulus store.

Lastly, in Audulus 2.0, the Audulus audio engine has been further optimized so your patches will run faster than ever.

Speed. Timing. Math. Audulus 2.0"
