via this Reverb listing

"Vintage programmable & MIDI equipped preset 6 voice polyphonic analogue synthesizer. The JX-3P shares the same great analogue filters and VCAs as the JUNO and even the JUPITER series. Just like the JUNO, it’s a six voice polyphonic feeding digitally controlled oscillators (DCOs) through analogue filters, envelopes and amps. However, the JX-3P has two oscillators per voice instead of one. Made in Japan.

The PG-200 was designed by Roland to simplify programming for the Roland JX-3P, MKS-30, and GR-700, streamlining the process significantly. Even for those well-versed in analogue synthesis, the PG-200 opens the door to unexpected creative moments, often leading to the discovery of unique and inspiring sounds."

Batverb is the stereo reverb that dreams are made of: less of a room simulator and more of a tail generating pedal, Batverb is an instrument in its own right.

Taking inspiration from our popular tail-generating modules, Batverb brings reverberation and delay to a whole new level with extensive control of timbre, echoes, and dynamics.

Start by setting a predelay time and adjusting Regen to set the length of the tail, from a short slapback-style echo to an infinite wall of reverberation. A variety of unique controls make Batverb sing in any signal chain:

Doom adds in chaotic suboctaves, and Shimmer brings in haunting overtones. With each on its own control, go wild and have both at the same time!

Low and high damping settings for the reverb tank

Add filtering and harmonics to reverb tails

Built-in saturation can apply to only the wet signal or the whole output
Includes onboard dry/wet Blend control and input- and output-gain parameters

Unique Duck switch controls the reverb’s behavior: duck out of the way of an input signal, or match the dynamics of your playing, similar to a gated reverb

Create instant atmospheres with reverb-freezing Hold footswitch
Route the expression input can to any parameter on the pedal

Store and recall 16 different presets and recall them in response to MIDI program-change messages.

Noise Engineering announces Batverb, an experimental reverb, delay, and infinite-tail generator

Los Angeles, CA — Noise Engineering, known for their expansive selection of synthesizer effects and sound sources, announces Batverb, a distinctive stereo reverb with a twist.

Noise Engineering’s take on reverb has always been innovative, creating effects that are as much instruments as they are processors. Batverb is no exception: parameters allow the resulting effects to morph organically from slapback delays to infinite reverb tails.

“Batverb was inspired by our Desmodus Versio module, but when we tried to bring the Desmodus experience to guitar, we realized quickly that we would need to rethink the approach. Batverb shares concepts with Desmodus but shares zero code: the entire thing was redesigned from the ground up, with the dynamics and tonality of guitar at the forefront,” said Stephen McCaul, Chief Noisemaker at Noise Engineering. Kris Kaiser who is the Doer of Many Things at the small company added, “Working with guitar was key, but what sounds great on guitar also works really well for loads of other instruments.” Indeed, Batverb’s stereo I/O and MIDI integration make it a perfect choice for a multitude of instruments.

Kaiser continued, “I like to say Batverb isn’t your father’s reverb because it has such unique features.” She’s not wrong. Along with predelay/delay Time and Regen controls, Batverb includes a number of parameters for shaping the tone of the reverb itself. The Grit switch adds a unique harmonic distortion to the tail or the whole mix, and the Doom and Shimmer controls add in subharmonics and overtones. Batverb also has onboard adjustable highpass and lowpass filters to shape the tone to taste.

Batverb’s configurable Bypass footswitch can cut the reverb tail immediately, or simply mute the input to the reverb processor, allowing the tail to ring out while you play. The Infinite footswitch mutes the input to the reverb tank while maximizing the feedback for an infinite atmosphere.

The innovative Duck switch uses the dynamics of your playing to shape the reverb tail. Use the right setting to duck the reverb out of the way of your guitar’s tone, or the left setting to make the reverb’s dynamics match your guitar’s.

Batverb also stores/recalls up to 16 presets with MIDI Program Change messages. Batverb features a convenient MIDI thru jack, so it’s easy to patch into your MIDI control chain. In addition, all parameters can also be controlled via MIDI for automation and remote control from a DAW or configurable controllers.

Noise Engineering is a member of 1% for the Planet and has been donating a percentage of all sales to environmental conservation. Proceeds from Batverb will benefit the organization Bat Conservation International.

Batverb is available for preorder with MSRP of $499. It starts shipping March 13 from noiseengineering.us and retailers worldwide.

Batverb was designed and built in sunny Southern California.

Make HAPPY ACCIDENTS on the fly with the new GROUND CONTROL Firmware V.3

video upload by Endorphin.es

"We are presenting you the updated GROUND CONTROL - our flagship eurorack sequencer which got the major Version 3 firmware update - it is available to download from our website for free:

https://www.endorphin.es/modules/p/gr...
https://www.endorphin.es/modules/p/gr...

We listened all of you carefully and implemented all the requests for the MIDI and variable modular clock and 128 steps per pattern, but what is the most interesting is that GROUND CONTROL now has a dedicated HAPPY ACCIDENTS maker - RANDOM PATTERN GENERATION and RANDOM PATTERN VARIATION. There are three pretty different random generators - which are separate for melodies and rhythm tracks which generate melodies and rhythms on the fly. Those algorithms are: euclidean, wide and narrow.

Euclidean randomizer which tend to equally distribute the notes over our pattern steps
Wide randomizer has lots of random and lots of actions freedom
Narrow randomizer is more focused giving more clear result

Important to note that for melodic tracks those pattern generators track the music scales and their root notes, while 8 drum tracks all have different character (density, rhythmic pattern), it is worth to play with them to obtain an interesting result."
