"#alisa #1377 #alisa1377 #synth #demo
Rare USSR synthesizer restored by Alex Taber!
It was made in USSR in 1985 at Luberetskiy Military Radioplant "Rodina" near Moscow.
ALISA synthesizers were made especially for experimental electronic music, creating of sound effects in soviet cinema and scientific acoustic researches.
This unique instrument has warm, aggressive and absolutely original analog sound!
The synthesizer has 1 OSC with 4 wave forms, ADSR , filter, various modulations, vibrato and portamento effects.
OSCILLATOR: tune; octave +1/+2; portamento; wave forms: triangle, saw, square, odd harmonics; frequency modulation (for all 4 waveforms); impulse-width modulation (for square wave form) with impulse width and depth controls; harmonics (for odd harmonics wave form). You can use individual OSC waveforms (triangle, saw, square, odd harmonics) or mix them together to get unique sounds!
FILTER: cutoff, resonance, vibrato (filter modulation), ADSR, switch between filter control- keyboard or contour OSC (ADSR). The synths filter due to it`s original architecture can be used as additional oscillator when filter`s resonance knob in self-oscillaltion position and it sounds really weird and interesting!
AMPLIFIER: ADSR, main volume, on/off synthesizer."
"In this video, I keep exploring the Hapax sequencer’s capabilities even more:
Program changes to switch between different presets (TR-6S and Minifreak)
Automation (enabling and disabling MIDI LFOs controlling parameters on the SE-02)
MIDI effects: Arpeggiator, LFO, Randomizer, Output, Scaler, Swing, etc.
Modulation
Fill button used to make drum breaks, mute some tracks etc.
Conditions for notes to play when a certain condition is met...
All 5 instruments in this jam are being sequenced by the Hapax.
The little trick I used here is that, thanks to the Hapax' MIDI Output plugin, the BASS track or the ARP track can sequence the S1, depending on which MIDI Output plugin I've enabled.
⚠️ Heads up: I miswired the Minifreak, so it’s totally out of phase - if you listen in mono, it’ll disappear. 👻"

Syntakt 1.40 – 7 Power-Ups That Completely Redefine It
"Syntakt firmware 1.40 just dropped - and yes, it plays samples now. But that's not the real story.
After spending serious time with this firmware, I found 7 power-ups that completely change what this machine is capable of. We're talking new oscillator colors, evolving morph engines, harmonic stacking with real instrument samples, character layering that captures the soul of your synths, track linking with analog filter routing, stereo filter panning, and performance upgrades that make jamming more intuitive than ever.
This isn't about drum one-shots. This is about what sampling unlocks for sound design, harmony, and musicality on a machine that already had serious creative depth.
All sounds in this video come from my own sample library recorded from my synthesizers — including the Novation Peak, Sequential Fourm, and Arturia AstroLab 37. The full sample pack and project files are available on my Patreon.

"This Oberheim was custom built for Ronnie Montrose around 1980 and used by him until the early 1990's. This synthesizer has some great sounding Synthesizer Expander Modules. In this video, the two sequencers are driving all four SEM units. I am stepping through the sequencer steps with a foot switch plugged into the step input on the patch panel A. Recorded direct off mixer no effects, compression or eq.

"This is a heavily customized E-70 organ with the synth functions of all 3 orchestra sections (upper keyboard, lower keyboard, pedals) fully and independently programmable. Furthermore a 4th solo section has been added.
Although many people have compared converting Yamaha E-series organs into programmable synthesizers to turning them into CS80´s I have always looked much more towards the GX1 connection. The GX1 was the mother of all Yamaha CS´ and contained 1 analog solo synthesizer, 2 polyphonic sections and 1 bass pedal section. So how could the Son Of GX ever be really complete without the addition of such a solo synth?"

Her life journey has been remarkable. At the end of the fifties, she studied in Paris with musique concrète pioneers Pierre Schaeffer and Pierre Henry, whom she also assisted, notably for the premiere of L'Apocalypse de Jean. During the sixties she began composing with primitive electronics (feedback and asynchronous tape loops), but found little recognition for her research in France.
In New York in the early seventies, she found understanding and emulation, exploring emerging minimalism with James Tenney, Charlemagne Palestine, Phillip Glass, John Gibson, and Steve Reich. Her absolute allegiance to electronic sounds began during this period. Since then she has composed on the best synthesizers of the time: Buchla, Moog, Serge, and then ARP, which would become her fetish instrument. She collaborated with Robert Ashley, who sang on Les Chants de Milarepa. She has composed about two dozen works, which she has presented and continues to present at numerous prestigious venues and festivals in the United States and Europe.
In 2004, upon Kasper Toeplitz´s request, she started instrumental compositions for one or more performers, with whom she works in a close collaboration during the compositional process. This work gets quickly focused on pure acoustic sounds, in an incredibly delicate timbral way, which extends, without aesthetic rupture, her electronic work. Notably between 2004 and 2009, she completed a cycle in three parts 'Naldjorlak', for Charles Curtis on cello, Carol Robinson and Bruno Martinez on basset horns. She has now stopped her electronic work."
Emmanuel Holterbach (Translation Leslie Stuck)"
The following is a collection of some of her works:
"In Buddhism, the number 9 signifies spiritual completion, ultimate enlightenment, and the highest level of consciousness (the ninth consciousness, or Buddha nature). It represents the culmination of the path to Nirvana, the 9 virtues of the Buddha, and is often associated with auspiciousness, progress, and the 9 states of delusion (nine worlds)."
Some history on Eliane Radigue via Wikipidia:
"Radigue was born in a modest family of merchants and raised in Paris at Les Halles.[5] She later married the French-born American artist Arman with whom she lived in Nice while raising their three children, before returning to Paris in 1967. She had studied piano and was already composing before hearing a broadcast by the founder of musique concrète Pierre Schaeffer. She soon met him, and in the early '50s became his student, working periodically at the Studio d'Essai during visits to Paris. In the early 1960s, she was assistant to Pierre Henry, creating some of the sounds which appeared in his works.[6] As her own work matured, Schaeffer and Henry felt that her use of microphone feedback and long tape loops (as heard in Vice-Versa and Feedback Works 1969-1970) was moving away from their ideals, though her practice was still related to their methods.
Radigue's death was announced on February 24, 2026. Her cause of death was not stated.[7][8]
"The WLK FILTERBANK is used on SPEECH, a NARRATION LOOP explaining the WLK and the SND filterbanks in ENGLISH and GERMAN. Extreme use of the frequency bands and also the distosion/saturation settings demonstrate the ability of the units und explore its/their boundaries.
SND FB-14 speech demo will be uploaded soon.
HAVE FUN!
The humming noise in the background is a crane that has been working for hours on the street to repair a water pipe of a neighboring building. I tried to remove it but I wasn’t entirely successful. To cut a long story short: Since the units dramatically compress the signal they push it but they are not generating it!"
Last night I was experimenting with the Torso. I have only a pad running on track 1 and a kick on track 2. I set-up 6 scene instances and changed the rate divisIons for the pad on each one - I then created some variation in terms of effects etc and set the sequences to run in a chain with the sequence order set to randomize. It runs at 95bpm, then 50, then 180.

"The SND FB-14 is a stunning GERMANIUM TRANSISTOR based FILTERBANK with 14 fixed Q band pass filters. As you can hear in the demo the sound shaping shaping potential of this filter is enormus.
SND FB-14 is assisted by WLK-Audio Inductive Filterbank (silicon) to control excessive boosts and the core of the wiring: ART passive splitter + mixer SplitMix4. The SplitMix knob marked with the WHITE DOT (blue, unused in this session, is for additional feedback!) is controlling the signal that is fed back into SND.
The basic feed is from TORSO Electronics S-4 sculpting sampler."
