"onboard synth and midi controller based around a highlyliquid midi cpu. the pod interface handles many duties including ambience triggering, vocal processing, onboard synth control, and a pre-programmed midi controller cpu for the interface. the midi controller is controlling a programmed sound on the qsr and cycled through bends. still have alot open on the cpu for adding on later for. good support at the forums and firmware is supportted.

Electroacoustic Freakout.

Electroacoustic Freakout. from Livid Instruments on Vimeo.

"I've been working on some new tools for our controllers, and in the process of prototyping some effect chains, I dug out this old Max patch of mine. Based on the resonators~ object from CNMAT (cnmat.berkeley.edu), it creates sounds based on "exciting" a model of a resonant body. Of course, because it is on a computer, it is super screwy. Because it is based on a physical model, I can claim a lofty "electroacoustic" lineage.
I quickly got distracted from my initial task to see if I could create some interesting sound processors from it, and hooked it up to my block. The grid of rubber buttons quickly revealed themselves as an ideal companion for an electro-acoustic freakout in which I could simultaneously feel like Sun-Ra and Stockhausen. But, really, I'm just getting sidetracked. I got to get back to work, and I hope you like the sounds..."

Waldorf PPG Wave 3.V Upgrade Special

via Waldorf
"**Christmas offer: 99€ instead of 119€, valid from 12.15 to 12.31.2010."
"The PPG Wave 3.V Upgrade is for users who already own PPG Wave 2.V and want to upgrade to PPG Wave 3.V. Owners of all versions of PPG Wave 2.V, including the LE version and the Waldorf Edition, are eligible for this upgrade. Simultaneous purchase of both Waldorf Edition and this upgrade is also possible.

Waldorf PPG Wave 3.V is the reincarnation of the legendary PPG Wave Synthesizer, which no doubt is considered one of the most respected high-end synthesizers of the 80s. Developed by Wolfgang Palm, this instrument is featured on countless records, and it inspired a whole generation of producers, composers and listeners. While back then it was your choice to spent your money either for a vehicle or the PPG, the new PPG Wave 3.V renders this breathtaking sonic character very affordable, comfortably to use for every VST or AU Host. During the development of the PPG Wave 3.V, we gladly received extensive advice from Wolfgang Palm himself to ensure that the PPG Wave 3.V becomes a worthy successor of this adorable jewel of the art of German engineering.

Unleash the massive sound potential with the charm of the "good old digital days" with this unique instrument, and bring back the pure joy and individuality of 1980s synthesis with the PPG Wave 3.V!!

Homebuild Synth - Update.

YouTube via organfairy | December 02, 2010 | 2 likes, 0 dislikes

"After last weeks weird video with artificial flowers, pink skirts, and German peace songs I though we needed to get down to earth again!

So I have made a little update to the building project I made last winter. I found that the keyboard on my mini modular synthesizer could need to go a little lower. Therefore I have made a frequency divider and this is what this video is about.

The music is played on the Böhm Station One workstation, Roland E-15 and Yamaha PSR-78 keyboards."
