Reproducing Chaos, ENIGMA Synth Patch Template

video upload by substatica drones

"Demonstrating a free printable PDF patch template for the ENIGMA synthesizer, allowing us to record, or plan, object placement. The same objects in the same placement should reproduce the same sound. Play the ENIGMA synthesizer by placing metallic objects on its surface. The ENIGMA is available now from SOMA LABORATORY.

ENIGMA Patch Template PDF - https://substatica.com/enigma

ENIGMA is an innovative synthesizer fully controlled by the position and movement of metallic objects. Through a unique interface developed by SOMA, every metal object placed on the surface is transformed into sound. The shape, size, and type of object are entirely up to you. Coins, screws, fragments, gears, tools, and any other metallic artifacts will work. The interface sensitivity is extremely high — even a fractional millimeter shift of an object can alter the sound.

MIDI and CV clock sync are included , as well as MIDI note control."

Feel the sound, not the screen: TERRA synth

video upload by SOMA Laboratory

"Do you want to lose yourself in a direct, intuitive interaction with sound where every touch shapes the tone?

SOMA TERRA gives that. No screens, no menus, no obstacles between you and the music. Just a pure physical interaction, like with an acoustic instrument.

Follow an idea as it appears in your mind, shape it into a phrase, and make it part of your music.

Watch Tim Kroker turn this direct connection into a composition.

"Inspired by the industrial atmosphere of 1980s sci-fi and the iconic '1984' theme, this edition features a stunning polished-steel chassis and a striking red LED scheme. It comes in a stark all-black carrying case with special red-white-and-black alligator clips and a typewritten certificate of authenticity, completing the industrial-dystopian vibe.

New oscillator design for the BD that produces an asymmetrically clipped triangle wave that can be overdriven to a square wave with the Drive knob.
Tune knob range expanded.
OMG pin is now an AC coupled FM input.
Also incorporates a new filter for the BASS section based on the polivoks filter.

And this is already available from SOMA US Division and limited quatity for SOMA EU."

"LYRA-8 is based on eight generators, which will be referred to as voices. Their design is not like a traditional subtractive synthesis VCO. Instead of having a linear or logarithmic dependency on control voltage, they resemble the tone generators in old electric organs. Hence the use of the term 'voices' instead of 'VCOs'. Lyra uses non-linearity a lot, and the voices are constructed in such a way that allows for non-linearity to express itself."

"This Pulsar is in great working order with its original gig bag, power supply and alligator clips.

PULSAR-23 is an organismic drum machine designed by Vlad Kreimer. It has a semi-modular structure and consists of 23 independent modules. PULSAR can be used for the synthesis of percussion instruments and rhythms, bass and melodic lines, effects and sound landscapes, as well as a source of control voltage and powerful analog FX processor.The PULSAR functions in three different modes: stand-alone, MIDI control and CV control. Moreover, all the above features and control modes can work simultaneously in any proportion or combination.Additionally, PULSAR offers live circuit bending capabilities and the use of the artist’s body conductivity to create patches and cross modulations. PULSAR continues the line of organismic synthesizers begun by LYRA-8, but now in the area of percussion instruments."
