Isla Electronics "Asyx" Andromeda A6 | Soundpack "DARKSIDE" - demo 1 | No talking
video upload by xu.sounddesign - dirk rohde
"This is the first demo of my new soundpack 'DARKSIDE" with 50 (!!!) new patches I have designed for Isla Electronics´ 'Asyx' Andromeda and for the original Alesis Andromeda A6.
No external effects were used in the demos. All effects are internal effects of the Asyx. No other hardware was used. No compressor, no limiter, no equalizer, nothing, but the pure Asyx.
All in all there are 50 (!!!) new patches in the package with all sounds of relaxation, grainy drones, organic textures and deep pads.I designed all the sounds myself.
If you´re interested in the soundpack "DARKSIDE", please send me an email (xu.sounddesign@gmx.net). Please check your spam-folder."

Isla Electronics ASYX - Multi Timbral demo
video upload by Isla Electronics
"I keep getting asked what the 'MIX' button is for.
Well, the original Andromeda was 16 voices, but it was also 16 part multi-timbral, so you could either have upto 16 totally different sounds playing at once, or you could also use it to layer different patches to create very thick textures.
In this quick synth wank, I give a little tour of the UI while about 7 different programs are playing across different midi tracks from ableton. No additional fx or processing other than what's coming out of asyx. This is just 1 single instance of the plugin loaded.
Excuse my rough timing, I recorded this in on a KordBot.. lol"

Isla Electronics "Asyx" - Alesis Andromeda VST plugin | No talking teaser
video upload by xu.sounddesign - dirk rohde
"Brad Holland, the founder and chief developer from Isla Electronics (islaelectronics.com) and his team are developing a VST plugin based on the famous Alesis Andromeda A6. The beta phase is currently underway. I’ve already had a chance to try out the beta version and have designed a sound pack for the 'Asyx' based on my 'Moviescore' sound pack for the original Andromeda.
Here’s my first teaser where you can get a sneak peek at the “Asyx” Andromeda A6 plugin. It sounds massive, fat, and creamy, and does a great job of recreating the gritty, analog character of the original Andromeda."

Isla Electronics 'ASICS' Demo (Virtual Andromeda A6)
video upload by Isla Electronics
"A quick tease of one of the internal caladan engines.
This one is likely going to be polished up and also released as a VST/AU plugin soon.
Still work to do but it's almost feature complete now.
Fully sysex compatible with the original machine and can actually also behave as a remote controller for the real hardware.
More Later...
Enjoy!
Brad x"

KordBot Firmware update tour...
video upload by Isla Electronics
"I'm delighted to finally be able to give you a tour of the soon to be released firmware update for your beloved KordBot.
Rather than a full end to end feature example I've tried to keep this as short as possible to just walk around all the new features and improvements.
This should be released to the public sometime next week after some initial private beta testing is complete to make sure we don't blow up your KordBot ;)
as always, come and join the discussion at http://forum.islaelectronics.com
big love!
brad
I also want to give a plug to Georgy at Musician Paradise, purveyor of the finest midi chord progression packs who has graciously donated hundreds of song starter chord progressions that will be included in the firmware. check him out over at
