Analogue Solutions TC5000 Synthesizer: "Pulse Diver" Sequence No. 416

video upload by Analogue Solutions

"Here’s a new single sequence, "Pulse Diver" from the Analogue Solutions #TC5000 Patch Pin Matrix Synthesizer—recorded with no external instrumentation, FX, or processing. It demonstrates how you could build a track from a single analogue sequence, if desired.

An #arp2600 kick was used live and clocked from the TC5000. Every other sound in this video is TC5000 live."

"With the TC5000’s vast sonic range, no single video can fully showcase its capabilities. We’ll share more sequences to highlight different aspects of its sound design potential.

About the Patch:

The TC5000's pin matrix provides extensive routing options for highly intricate and dynamic patches. A single pin can introduce subtle nuances or completely transform the sound.

In fact, the complexity of just one patch could warrant an entire essay!

In this sequence:

You'll need speakers with bass 🔊

This is a faster tempo sequence with percussive elements. The envelopes are very tight, giving the synth a characteristic sound.

-The MIDI to CV Converter module 5088 was utilised for connectivity to a Keystep keyboard. The Note Loop Sequencer on this module was used for the basic pattern of the repeating bass sound.

-A simple sequence from the 5054 Sequencer modulates pitch for Oscillator 2 (VCO Module 5004) and is supplemented by waveforms from the other 2 Oscillator modules.

-Oscillator 3 features a separate sequence from the 5054. Both are manually faded in during the performance.

-Dual filters—the VCF-Multi (5047, SEM-style) and VCF-LP-CEM (5012, low-pass)—are actively modulated by the sequencer’s preset voltages.

-White noise is introduced via the Dual Noise / Random module 5032.

-Modulation variations are done in real-time via the vast pin matrix on the TC5000. One pin can dramatically alter a sequence.

-An ARP 2600 kick sound can be heard running alongside the TC5000. This was clocked via the TC's Convenience jack. The Convenience jack is not wired to the module's circuits. It is an independent jack input that allows you to take signals in or out of the matrix panel.

More sequences will follow, exploring different possibilities with the TC5000."

In fact, the complexity of just one patch could warrant an entire essay!

This sequence features multiple waveforms from 3 oscillators, 2 filter types, Dual EG module 5012, Sequencer, and the Preset Voltage module 5052 (randomized with noise), along with the Mix-Sequencer module 5100 (providing the pulsating effect) -- this module is essentially two 4-input mixers. The channels, however, can be muted/switched on/off in the sequencer, in time to either an internal or external clock."

-A simple sequence from the 5054 Sequencer modulates pitch for Oscillator 1 (VCO Module 5004) and is built upon by waveforms from the other 2 Oscillator modules.

-Oscillator 2 features a deep bass, and is being manually "played" via Module 5052 (Preset Voltage Module).

-Dual filters—the VCF-Multi (5047, SEM-style) and VCF-LP-CEM (5012, low-pass)—are actively modulated by the sequencer’s preset voltages.

Coming Soon: Analogue Solutions TC5000 Analogue Patch Pin Matrix Synthesizer

Follow-up to this post.

"This is not an ARP2500 clone...

The TC5000 utilises Analogue Solutions’ proprietary circuits. Some are adapted from our other exceptional synthesizers, such as Leipzig, Telemark, and Fusebox, along with some new designs created specifically for this synthesizer.

The TC5000 features two full-width patch pin matrix panels, providing a user interface experience reminiscent of the iconic ARP2500.

Utilising the TC5000 for sound design will offer a similar experience to the ARP2500. The user interface is a crucial aspect of sound design; it is not solely about the filter. How you interact with a synthesizer is equally important. Different user interfaces and working approaches enable you to create patches that you might not have discovered using, for example, patch leads.

Note: Some modules of the final product are likely to change, so join our news list below for continual updates on TC5000 development.

This is a brand-new product; consequently, it will take some time to compile promotional media. We will add this as it becomes available.

In the meantime, listen to the demos of our other synthesizers, such as Colossus, to understand our capabilities and the standard that the TC5000 will achieve."

At SynthfestUK 2024, we met up again with Jason, who gaves us the updates in the world of Knobula. On display was the new 'dark mode' Poly Cinematic module, for more monochrome rigs ;-]

2. SynthFestUK 24: PWM - More Mantis News

At the show we made a beeline for the PWM stand, where Paul gave us the latest Mantis news.
And yes, it's out there in the world now!

3. SynthfestUK 24: Roland Unveils the Juno-D Series with Zen-Core Sound

We caught up with Andrew and Ludwig who showed us around the new updated Juno-D series: Juno-D6, D7, and D8. They have the same keyboard action as the Fantom-O series and a new colour screen, making it easier for performers to navigate on stage. And they can be powered by a USB-C mobile battery, perfect for buskers ;-) Running Roland's Zen-Core sound engine, they also incorporates features like a 64-step sequencer and a phrase pad for live sample triggering.
Prices range approximately from £949 to £1199.

Analogue Solutions Introduces the TC5000 - ARP 2500 Inspired Synthesizer

video upload by sonicstate

"Tom's stand is hard to miss, always something massive and/or impressive to catch your attention ;-]

This year it's the turn of the TC5000, a synthesizer drawing inspiration from the ARP2500 with a patch matrix system along the lines of those he has developed since the Vostok. The TC5000 has a unique mix of circuits - compiled from years of development in products like the Fusebox and Colossus - and its user interface, for ease of patching across upper and lower matrices.

With a host of modules, including oscillators, filters, sequencers, and dual spring reverbs, Tom plans to provide a comprehensive package, with potential expansions through additional "wings" or systems.

Price is expected to be in the £22K range, available towards the end of the year"

"ANALOGUE PATCH PIN MATRIX SYNTH

This product is so new, we haven’t even finished this web page!

The selection of modules that will be configured in the final system will differ from the pre-production unit features in the current photographs.

WE ARE TAKING PRE-ORDERS NOW (DEPOSIT REQUIRED).
ETA TOWARDS THE END OF THE YEAR.

This is not an ARP2500 clone! TC5000 ustilises Analogue Solutions’ own circuits. Some are adapted from our other stunning synthesizers, like Leipzig, Telemark and Fusebox. Plus some new designs especially for this synthesizer.

TC5000 features two full width patch pin matrix panels that provide the same kind of UI experience that made the ARP2500 so incredible.

Using TC5000 for sounds design will give you a similar experience to the ARP. User interface is a very important aspect of sound design. It really isn’t all about the filter. How you interact with a synth is equally important. Different UI and working approaches means you will come up with patches you might otherwise not have come across using say, patch leads."
