MATRIXSYNTH

Link-O-Logic iMoog

via Link-O-Logic: "I sampled some Moog Voyager sounds and made a free Kontakt instrument. All samples are made with analog outboard gear like API A2D, 5500, 2500, SMC 2b or Hammer EQ. For now you can download the first two demo packs: "Big Boy" and "I saw U". More sound packs will come."

Mister Clean from Huba&Silica on Vimeo.

via Ernesto: "All synth sounds were made with the Voyager, and the voice glitching manually cut with an MPC1000; the track was sequenced in Ableton Live 6." "And here we have some 'making of...' pics: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kapitals/sets/72157623020177725/"

Limit Cycle - Max4Live EP

"These four tracks are in a sense experiments: They are all made using possibilities open up by Max4Live, the extension to Ableton's Live sequencing software, which allows for easier control over things such as algorithmic composition. And this EP is filled of just that. Variations on the concept spawned by Per Nørgaard's Infinity Series are restrained by mutating scale quantizers while psuedo-random pattern and weighted random generators create constantly moving rythmic material. These numbers comes to life via synthesizers in which all sound parameters are slightly, slowly moving, creating an organic texture of sounds. These tracks could have been created before Max4Live of course, but I can only imagine having to spend at least 6 months on every track, working out these tremendously complex mathematical relations between the notes by hand, in a traditional sequencing enviroment."

"pardon my lack of keyboard skills to demonstrate, this is just a short one for matrix since there wasn't much in the way of the seiko keyboards.

this was a craigslist find, hoping to resell but i might want to hold onto it for a little while. it does retro pads nicely. it reminds me of old organs i've used like the conn electric band sans spring reverb or the moog organ sans filter except the seiko is bi-timbral. it has some basic preset sounds selectable for each timbre which define timbre and attack while there are simple controls on each voice for volume, decay, modulation slider with a on/off switch for a delay into the lfo cycle. you can detune the voices up to 14 percent and you can assign each note of polyphony a few selectable intervals. a chorus reminescent of the old junos except this one is on a continous slider from 1-2 chorus in stereo. single voice mode, bitimbral mode or split point voices. key transposable, volume controls, pitch wheel, on/off buttons and a nice layout with simple but nice led displays.

no memory but it's simple to setup. midi in/out. midi seems primitive as i could really only get note on/off to respond although there is a way to recieve each voice over midi by a 16 way rotary switch by each voice 1/ voice 2 output on 1/4" also on the side panel is alternate summed mono output, headphone jack, pitch fine tune, stereo rca outputs. input to footswitch sustain (although mine wasn't working on a regular 1/4" footswitch) input for trs expresion pedal for volume. looks like there is room for modular expansion but i don't have any of the modular components to this keyboard. i could see how easy it would be to approach additive like this with really simple controls and some of the expanders but as you might imagine controls are limitied.makes for a nice retro pad machine. even though it's simple i like it because it's not trying to be anything else but itself."
