S1MIDITrigger for iPad Adds Sysex Support, Import/Export & More

What's New in Version V3.3.0:
- Import / Export Banks with iTunes
- SysEx supports (except DS MIDI Wifi Server)
- Add Note No. in Pad Setting view
- Add Label control
- Add selected frame on Design view
- Hard spot range to Knob and Slider



Update: It looks like only the Pad trigger control (colored squares in pic) supports sysex at this time. Sliders and X/Y Pad currently do not. When I first posted this I noted that I would finally crack my Yamaha FS1R. That will have to wait. CC support on it is limited and sysex is the only way to get to all of it's parameters aside from its keyhole editing interface. Currently no app for the iPad that I'm aware of supports sliders that can transmit SysEx. Update: Sysex support for sliders and knobs are in with V3.4.0.

Arp 2600 Vintage Analog Synthesizer

via this auction

"Arp 2600 model 2601
Serial number 0398

This is an earlier model 2601 and DOES have the "coveted" 4012 "Moog" style filter...
This synth also has the upgraded 3620 keyboard which added some much needed features to the Arp. First, it added an "upper voice" feature, which gives this synth a duo-phonic capability, as you can hook this second voice up to one of the oscillators and play intervals. Second, it has a built-in LFO with delay capability. A limitation of the Arp was that you had to sacrifice one of your oscillators if you wanted to use a sin-wave modulation source. No more! I don't recall if the old keyboard had portamento, but the new one definitely does."

Tiptop Audio uZEUS 4HP power supply

"The microZEUS is a 4HP power supply module for Eurorack format synthesizers. It is the smallest and most powerful power supply available for its size. There are two versions available:

1. uZEUS with flying bus boards: this version features two ribbon bus boards. All you have to do is plug in your modules and play.

2. uZEUS with quick fit terminals: this version features four standard spade terminals to connect to rigid bus boards like the ZEUS Passive Bus Board.

The uZEUS mixes linear and switching power technology to produce 1000mA at +12V, 500mA at -12V, and 170mA at +5V and uses a standard +15VDC non-regulated wall adapter for power."
