NOT NAMM: iSample frozen fog by homogenized terrestrials

YouTube via trrstrl
"Music performed by homogenized terrestrials on Way Out Ware's iSample for ipod touch. Recorded directly to an Edirol R-09HR wave recorder. Original sounds sampled from a Roland V-Synth. Video created in Nero from pictures taken with a Canon Rebel XT. The weatherman mentions freezing fog in the forecast for today. Pictures taken, music recorded, and video assembled on January 17, 2010."
iSample on iTunes:

I was fortunate enough to very briefly check out iSample at NAMM. It's an impressive piece of software.

Buchla 291e Resonance

YouTube via boobtube356
"The 285e Balanced Modulator is self oscillating and feeding the ALL input of the 291e Morphing Filter. Filter section B output is being mixed with A output and being sent back to A input. Filter B output is also being mixed with filter C output and is being sent back to C input. The ALL output is being monitored. Adjustments are made to the three filter frequencies and band widths. There are many possibilities, and this is just a taste. I start with all three filters at bw=0, alter the frequencies of all three, then do the same with bw on other settings."

NAMM: Introducing: A-Pro Series Keyboards for Mac & PCTry our new player

YouTube via CakewalkSoftware
"Cakewalk introduces the new A-PRO Series, USB MIDI Controllers for Mac and PC. The A-300 Pro (32-key), A-500 Pro (49-key) and A-800 Pro (61-key) are brand new keyboard controllers developed in conjunction with Roland. The A-PRO series focuses on intuitive real-time performance and ergonomic playability, making it a must-have controller for soft-synths in a live or studio setting. This new line gives musicians the best of both worlds: Cakewalks legendary ease of use and Rolands world-class engineering and keyboard expertise."

ROLAND D-50 HQ SOUND DEMO - DIGITAL SYNTHESIZER 1987

YouTube via AnalogAudio1
"The Roland D-50 from 1987 is a classic digital synthesizer with great sounds. It is the most successful synth from Roland.

It has a very useful joystick, similar to Sequential Prophet VS or Korg Wavestation. It allows realtime balance of the sound ingredients. It also helps to vary the sounds, so that the sound programs must not sound every time the same.
This is very important, because the D-50 ist very hard to program without the programmer PG-1000.

I played the D-50 without any additional effects. The FX came all from the D-50's built in FX processor."
