The 8R8 sample pack by Goldbaby

video upload by GoldbabySamples

"The 8R8 sample pack. Available now: https://www.goldbaby.co.nz/8r8.html

Sounds from the 8raw8 recorded in the Goldbaby studio."



"Sounds from the 8Raw8, a lovely analog drum expander, handmade in France, that recreates the iconic analog drum voices of the legendary TR-808.

Why make another 808 pack? I have had three vintage TR-808s in my studio, along with a few analog and digital clones. I can honestly say that the 8Raw8 is the nicest-sounding of all of them, including the OG vintage ones.

Another reason I created this pack was to utilise the 8Raw8 kick drum tune modification. This pack has a massive selection of multi-sampled chromatic kicks you play across the keyboard. Congas and toms also get the chromatic treatment!

I didn't stop there. Not only did I capture the 8Raw8’s unprocessed sound, but I also recorded it through tasty hardware. I used the MPC60, Fat Bustard II valve mixer, Silver Bullet Mk2, SPL Transient Designer, EL Fatso, EZ1073 EQ and Pre (Neve), AnalogHeat+FX, various guitar pedals (Plasma, Chroma, FatRat, Prunes & Custard), Cassette Tape Echo, and more.

This pack is like an 808 on steroids!

Introducing MESS - Multi-Effect Step Sequencer Pedal From Polyend

video uploads by Polyend

Polyend MESS: A sequenceable multi effects pedal

video upload by David Hilowitz Music




"MESS combines a powerful multi-track step sequencer with effects brimming with Polyend character – from classic modulation, delay or reverb to experimental effects never before seen in pedal form. With four fully customizable effect tracks, craft ambient soundcapes, intricate glitch sequences or even a familiar four effect chain – all moving in sync.

4 Effect Tracks
Combine four effects for every preset to create your own unique multi-effect. No limits are placed on what effect each track contains. Run a reverb into a delay or a spectralizer into two bitcrushers and create vibrant tones, suitable for any instrument.

125 Stereo Effects
Want a specralized micro-looping effect with randomized repeats? A time-shifting chorus into a reverb that slowly gets darker over time or simply a traditional modulation, delay, and Reverb chain? With over 120 effects to assign to the four tracks, MESS opens the door to the unexpected.

Why Sequence?
MESS has the sequencer power expected from a Polyend instrument. Control per-track speed and length to create polyrhythmic or polymetric sequences or use chance options to easily create complex generative effects that never sound the same twice. Instantly add movement and musicality to any effect. Reverbs bloom, delays evolve rhythmically, and modulations shift in sync with your tempo.

#StarDust by Qu-Bit | #Frippertronics revived

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"First of all, this is not a 'new gear review' videos. I don't do those. I don't get free modules from manufacturers to make a video and I already have tons of loopers in my collection (Morhpagene, Lubadh, etc), so why did I add StarDust? For me, the main reason is Frippertronics. It's an analog vintage tape technique developed by Brian Eno and Robert Fripp using one set of reels on two tape decks. So one records the second deck and the second is recorded by the first deck. Instead of a tape delay, you'd get a tape looper with endless overdubbing.

For me, personally, the sound of Robert Fripp's guitar immediately reminds me of Bowie's Heroes and Scary Monsters (listen to the 'Fashion' track if you don't know it). He's one of my Guitar Gods (Brian May, Fripp, The Edge, Manzanera, Eddie van Halen, and the list is not going on forever) but Fripp always gives me goosebumps because if his sustained sounds and textures. This video is definitely a tribute to Mr. Fripp so suit up!

StarDust is a great looper and it really fits my creative workflow (which is usually borrowed from the musicians I adore). I love to noodle on my Manzanera-inspired Firebird guitar, tuned to Fripp's New Standard Tuning of mostly fifths and one third on the high note to avoid snapping. I can't play, so for me it's a VCO with six strings.

How does it compare to the other major loopers? Well, Lubadh is dual mono which can be used for stereo too. It's great to have two reels that can run in opposite directions and it has an amazing tape emulation. Magneto is primarily a tape echo, but it can also loop as a tape machine and it has a spring reverb emulation (sure it's digital). If you're looking for a vintage tape echo with classic feedback, look no further. The Morphagene is a tape splicer where you have full control over splice points (cuts) and it can store many reels on SD card. It's also excellent for microsound explorations and fragment mangling. It can play three splices at once, with different note distributions (set on SD card). However, Morphagene is 'terrible' in retaining original pitch (green zone) and doesn't track V/OCT very well. You can set V/OCT support on the SD card, but you'd still need to dial in the correct varispeed and finetune. Most Morphagene users probably don't care about keeping in line. They just want to make noise.

BitBox MK2 is the T-REX of loopers which can loop 16 stereo loops at once, so you can use it as a true Loopstation. It can also detect or set splices, do granular stuff, time stretching, make multi-sample libraries and play samples polyphonically. There's simply nothing better, not even an ER-301. Did I miss one? Yes, the ADDAC 112 is also a great looper, but it's HUGE and the manual doesn't end.

If you're into live looping with built in FX, StarDust may be one of the best 'all in one solution' in Eurorack today. There are lots of shift-features, but you'll only need to remember a few of them. If you don't like the 'galaxy LED show', you may have lost the Child in your eyes."

Introducing: GUITAR HIVE

video upload by The Crow Hill Company

"You have never heard a sample library like this before. Instant, Cure, Smiths, Cocteau, Lanois, Eno, Edge, Steve Reich vs Pat Metheny under your fingertips. An homage to great British guitar beds from shoe gaze to stinking student union bars in the north of England to the pristine layers of Reich’s Electric Counterpoint. Construct endless layers of interweaved guitar parts that become a highly controllable sonic weapon that goes from elegant to pure filth in no less than a turn of a dial.

Join the minds (and fingers) behind this; Christian Henson and Theo Le Derf on the beginning of your Hive journey. This is the gift we all wanted this Christmas."

Press release follows:


EDINBURGH, UK: The Crow Hill Company is proud to announce availability of FILTH - GUITAR HIVE — heading up its FILTH sub-range of products produced and recorded at the Annex in Edinburgh, Scotland, its self-styled safe house packed with vintage equipment, rarified instruments, synths, processing, and potential, with the main emphasis being on creating more experimental sample projects that think out of the box and are the very antithesis of virtual instruments; in this case, guitar performances on a limited-edition Fender Telecaster by Theo Le Derf, D.I. (Direct Injection) recorded via a pristine Thermionic Culture The Rooster Valve pre-amp with EQ & attitude and mixed through countless processors to give users control over the uncontrollable, ultimately providing what all at the music-making community tools-maker collectively yearn for in the process... utter filth — as of December 18…

Now knowing what FILTH - GUITAR HIVE is positioned as being, best to take a function-highlighting, whistle-stop tour of its clearly considered UI (User Interface) implemented to take that mission statement to the musical masses, filthy or otherwise. On the face of it, the front panel-dominating ‘Obutsu!’ is basically a ‘filth’ dial, allowing users to effortlessly transform their sound with three simultaneous signals — from tasteful and pure D.I. to a crunchy deluxe amplifier, all the way to overdriven feedback and tempo-synced tremolo; SHIMMER is a dual-direction granular pitch shift fed into a massive reverb chamber, creating a cascading, shimmering veil of tone; DRIVE is an unmistakably distorted, crunchy signal, modelled after a tube amp that has been utterly misused; ECHO is a tape-based, multi-tap echo/delay that syncs to the host tempo — an associated speed control determines what subdivision of the beat the repeats play at; and SPLOSH is a suitably reasonable decaying reverb for anyone’s roomy needs.

"360 Systems - Digital Keyboard (s/n B358 ) The 360 Systems Digital Keyboard is from around 1984 and was one of the early 8-bit sample players. It is generally all working well, the keyboard really needs new bushings as it is a bit clattery and switch 16 does not work, although due to the sample blocks loaded into this unit, sounds 14, 15 and 16 are not active, so the faulty switch (16) wouldn’t do anything anyway. The “VAR” switch doesn’t seem to do anything, but presumably this is due to none of the ROM options installed having any variations, it was the strings that had variation, but this unit does not have strings installed. This is an early unit, and although it has MIDI sockets, it does not have the MIDI option fitted (So no MIDI). This unit is set to 240V. The voices installed are: 1- Flute 2- Nylon Guitar 3- Jazz Guitar 4- Slap (Funk) Bass 5- Electric Guitar 6- Clavinet 7 E.Piano (Rhodes) 8- Saxophone 9- French Horn 10- Trombone 11- Trumpet 12- Piccolo Trumpet 13- Grand Piano 14 - 16 - not active as the piano uses all 48 ROM chips VEMIA can collect and pack: 24GBP."

Estradin PX-1100 (RX-1100) Soviet Delay/Reverb Multi effect Ӏ Эстрадин Рх-1000 Ревербератор

video upload by Red Star Melodies

"It was manufacture at one of the biggest soviet radio plant "Estradin" in Zhytomir city where was produced power moog-type synths (Altair-231, Estradin-230, Solaris-314), signal processors and guitar effect pedals in Soviet Union.

PX 1100 can produce warm vintage echo, delay, reverb and chorus effects that can`t be reproduced by modern digital signal processors. It has really wide range of echo effects - from very short resonant self-oscilation delays to long endless repeats, sweet reverbs and weird chorus.

The front panel has knobs: Input, Repeat, Fx Ammount, Timbre, Balance, Volume, Delay, Frequency
Buttons: Bypass, Chorus, Hall, Reverb, Memory, 1/0,25

!!The supply voltage - 220-240V/50Hz. For 110/127V, a voltage converter is necessary!!"

Dystorpia - digital fuzz overdrive pedal from Noise Engineering

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Futuristic Fuzz, Dystopian Distortion, Overdrive Oblivion.

Dystorpia is Noise Engineering’s digital fuzz/overdrive pedal. Utilizing wavefolding and rectification, along with flexible tone controls, Dystorpia offers up a diverse sonic palette to work with for recording or live performance."

The Nastiest Distortion Pedal Ever - Dystorpia

video upload by Harp Lady

Press release follows:

Los Angeles, CA — Noise Engineering, known for their innovative Eurorack synthesizer modules, has made their first foray into guitar pedals with the announcement of Dystorpia, an entirely unique take on digital distortion and drive for guitar.

Noise Engineering has a reputation in the world of synthesizers for putting their own spin on classic concepts, and they’ve now brought their expertise to the guitar world. Having designed over a dozen modules that make use of distortion, Noise Engineering has taken ten years of experience creating new tones and brought it into an expansive overdrive toolkit.

“From the start, we knew we wanted to make something designed with guitarists in mind. Our testing initially focused entirely on how Dystorpia sounds with the more complex dynamics of guitars. Once we got there, we started trying it on other instruments and we were excited at how well we’d hit our mark; Dystorpia sounds great on guitars, but also basses, synths, drums, and more,” said Stephen McCaul, co-owner and Chief Noisemaker.

Dystorpia features three different distortion parameters. Gain sets the input level going into the rest of the pedal, and can overdrive for classic driven timbres. As the Blend knob is turned up, it adds in a slight saturation for some gentle distortion on its own. This makes it easier to timbrally balance the unaffected dry sound with the heavily processed wet signal. Fold controls a wavefolding algorithm, a technique taken from the world of synthesizers that creates a unique flavor of harmonic distortion. Pura adds a full-wave rectifier to the mix, another unique distortion.

Along with all of that distortion, Dystorpia features an expression-controllable Tone control with variable mid-band frequency, a switchable noise gate, and an optional suboctave generator.
Dystorpia also features two foot switches. On the right, a buffered bypass turns off and on the distortion processing. The left foot switch activates a latching or momentary freeze effect, infinitely sustaining a sound until it’s unfrozen again. While a sound is frozen, the pedal can still process new sounds at the input, allowing the performer to play over a frozen signal.

With so many tone-shaping options and performative features, Dystorpia is much more than just another fuzz or overdrive pedal. Dystorpia encompasses an entire pedalboard worth of distortion and tonal effects in a compact and fun package.


Dystorpia is available now at https://noiseengineering.us and at retailers globally.

Features
● Three unique distortion effects
● Expression-controllable Tone parameter
● Optional noise gate to reduce hum and add dynamics
● Add in suboctaves with the DOOM switch
● Infinitely freeze a signal with the left footswitch
● Sounds great on guitar and synths
