Squidfanny - Simmons Trixer vs. R-50e
video upload by squidfanny December 22, 2010
"Rock Solid Digital drums from SIMMONS TRIXER. Fantastic Ring Mods, Squarewaves, Distortion & Synthesizer sounds. Also Glitch Reverb and some of the best Random/Chaos/Glitch I've ever heard....
Digital Drum-Brain from 80's. Part mixing desk, part Midi Drum Machine. Drums can be triggered from Pads or an Audio Signal, such as mic from Acoustic Drum kit. Thus providing 'Acoustic Drum Reinforcement'.
Claps, Hats & Midi Triggering from Kawai R-50e (also Circuit bent)."

"Not sure what the difference between low and high serial numbers are but just so you know. Killer keyboard tho!"
Santa came early...

via Brian Kehew:
"Just got this in... very excited. I had seen and played the prototype, but it's even nicer on the final released version. Cyril Lance had mentioned they went for an "upgrade" on the wood - and it is much nicer quality than my old Voyager. It looks a lot more like the wood on early Minimoogs from the 70-72 era, which I think were the most attractive ones.
Looking forward to putting it through it's paces soon... "





Gils Gieskes DEP-1 + Hohner Pianet T
Gils Gieskes DEP-1 + Hohner Pianet T from Tom Whitwell on Vimeo.
"Quick demo of Gils Gieskes DEP-1 extra lo-fi digital effects kit - built around a microcontroller chip with just 2k of memory. Does looping, delay, pitch shifting, arpeggiating. All super gritty and chaotic.
Sound source is the Hohner Pianet electric piano.
DEP then goes into a Line6 Pod with a clean, bright amp model - sounds a bit warmer / more powerful than the DI from the DEP-1.
Doesn't really come across in this clip, but this is a box of fun!

Audio Damage Phosphor

via Analog Industries
"What it is: a two-oscillator 16-voice polysynth loosely based upon the topology of the alphaSyntauri additive synthesis add-on for the Apple ][+ and //e. We've added some modern features like the delays and mod routing, mono modes, and a "clean" setting for the sine waves and noise, in order to extend the capabilities of the synth past its original limits. But this plug is mainly designed for recreating the alphaSyntauri, and at that, it excels."
Update: video of the alphaSyntauri:
Vintage Sound Systems - AlphaSyntauri
YouTube via PineHillAstro | September 06, 2010 |
"The Alpha Syntauri was the flagship digital synthesizer produced by the Syntauri corporation in 1980. This short clip gives an overview of a unit I originally purchased in 1982, serial #A003184. The synthesis hardware engine is provided by the Mountain Computer synthesizer board set that mounted into bus slots within the Apple II. They supported 8 channels of 8-bit stereo audio. AlphaPlus is Syntauri's software application demonstrated here."
