Clavia DDrum Rack

flickr set by Waveterm

"This is the first DDrum products.

The Pad came first and the rack after that.

The rack contains up to eight modules and each module has the same electronics as the pad.

Very cool and sounds like the best vintage drummachines. E.g Linndrum, DMX etc....."

Blofeld Firmware V1.04

via Stefan Stenzel on the Waldorf list:

"I just uploaded the Blofeld V1.04 firmware to our server:

Blofeld_V1_04.zip

This version shall serve as a cure for some of Blofeld's misbehavior:
-S&H and Random LFO shapes decorrelated
-Sustain works as Modulation Source
-Tempo always edited from Part 1
-Multi Sound buffers accessible by SysEx request
-Effects shown properly after Init and SysEx reception
-Occasionally silent Delay and Reverb fixed
-Snow problem eliminated

Relating web content will be updated this afternoon.

Regards,
Stefan"

genoQs Octopus

via BERND KISTENMACHER

"With Andreas Michel, editor of the German “Synthesizer-Magazin”, I arranged to write a field report about the Octopus. The article will be explicitly no test report, because this would be too boring. The report is expected to be released in issue no.11 and I will put then a summary of the article in English language into this blog."
