"THE NEW MOON 568 IN ACTION"
http://lunar-experience.com "The M 568 QUAD SEQUENTIAL TRIGGER SOURCE is an elaborated trigger sequencer. It features four tracks of trigger positions, each with 32 steps, which can be combined to one long sequence of up to 128 steps:
4 sequences with up to 32 steps 2 sequences with up to 64 steps 1 sequence with up to 128 steps
The gate positions are activated by pushing the as- sociated button. The LED lights up. Pushing the button again deactivates the respective gate position.
More than one reset position per row can be set. The active reset buttons are displayed by means of blinking LEDs. By reaching the first blinking position a reset to step 1 is actuated (and triggers a gate, if position 1 is active/LED on).
To set/remove a reset position push and hold the „Set Reset Pos“ button - then push as many but- tons as desired and release „Set Reset Pos“.
Pushing and holding „Set Reset Pos“ and „Reset All“ deactivates all gate and reset positions at once.
The gate outputs are „mirrored“ depending on the chosen „Sequence Mode“. In 2 x 64 mode the gate outputs 1 and 2 respectively 3 and 4 deliver the same output, while the switch-on times of both parallel outputs may be different.
This means: E. g. output 1 with a short gate time provides all active gates, while output 2 with a re- ally long gate time provides only a few „long“ gate signals.
In 1 x 128 mode the four gate outputs provide four times the same signal in parallel. This time with in- dividual gate lengths, as desired, as well."

"There are a total of 26 new knobs and two new switches on the front panel. The standard KPR77 has no control over any sound parameters and as a result is a rather lifeless machine but these new knobs take it into a whole new world of analogue percussion. We have also adjusted the trigger pulse of the bass drum to give it a more 808'ish clicking punch instead of the standard weak tick."
Be sure to see the rest of the site for more mods.
"If you clock your analog sequencer in a high frequency using an oscillator you get a waveform generator with discrete parts that you can control. With the other channels you can control other things like filter cutoff or resonance."
via this auction "These are great little machines with true bass massiveness that differentiates from the 101 for some reason. They are compact, portable and powerfull. Great for live shows and as a master controller as well with its cv/gates outs. Very fat and warm filters typical of Roland during this time. You can run output voltages from "Built in Synth" outputs or the "Est synth" track as well. Phones out, main out, cv-gate kybd in, sync out or in, memory dump or load (get that cassete player out and freak the computer face nerds when you do your tape dump)."

"This started out as an experiment in running a pad from my G2X through the 292e. I then proceeded to perform some "interesting" video editing. Maybe I got carried away :^) No overdubs, everything is live. It's called Cold Friday because it was cold(for El Paso) and it was Friday."
I can finally break the news to you about the biggest feature that will come to Maschine in the next free update - which is plugin hosting!
So, according to popular demand, the upcoming 1.6 version will allow you to use VST and AU plugins as sound sources and effects in your Maschine project. This includes both the whole NI range of instruments and effects as well as any third-party plugin.
Check the screenshot for an idea of how this will look like. Instrument plugins can be used in any sound channel, and effect plugins can be inserted on both the sound and group channels as well as on the master.
Obviously the addition of plugin hosting requires quite a bit of development and testing. Regarding the timing of the release - version 1.6 is about to go into internal beta testing this month, and we are currently planning to make it available to you through a public beta test in January, with the final release probably coming up around two months later. As always, these are projected dates that can still change a bit.
Plugin hosting is the most prominent feature addition in 1.6, but there will be quite some more useful things being added with that update. Look forward to the coming weeks when we will post more details about Maschine 1.6!
