NAMM2011: Teaser for the new VST/AU/RTAS Effect from Plogue

YouTube via wwwPLOGUEcom | January 14, 2011 |

"NAMM2011: Plogue is proud to present a little teaser on our secret project, an "Early Sampling Circuit Simulator", which runs as a VST/AU/RTAS Effect.

It contains resamplers, filters, speaker impulses and other fined tuned algorithms to emulate the full signal path of well known early sampling devices, like for instance an SK-1 or the Amiga Paula, from the required analog to digital conversion (far from mere 'bit crushing'), up until the end speaker.

The same mindset that brought chipsounds to life, the acquisition, care and research is all in there. Everything that could NOT fit in chipsounds since it dealt with streamed samples is in here.

As with the NAMM2009 announcement of chipsounds, there is more to it than this, and we will keep some details, including the name and UI secret, until its ready to ship!"

NAMM: Teenage Engineering OP-1 Ready for Production

"OP-1 Newsletter #3, Jan 14, 2011

SPECIAL NAMM 2011 ANNOUNCEMENT

Finally. After more than two years of development the OP-1 is ready for production.

Initial supply will be limited. We now accept reservations at http://www.teenageengineering.com

Order now to make sure you get an OP-1 from the first production run. Manufacturing, assembly and shipping will be eight weeks.

PRICE

The OP-1 is priced at $ 799 / Euro 799 (including EC-VAT).

We have got questions about the dollar versus euro price.
The apparently higher euro price is a consequence of that we are required to add sales tax on all sales to the european union.

MEET US AT NAMM

We are in Hall A, Booth# 6409. The NAMM Show, Anaheim convention center in California. This is the place to try out an OP-1 for yourself. The show ends on Sunday.

BETA

Invitations has been sent out to the people selected for the Beta program.

We are exited to open up the sales of the OP-1 and are looking forward to hear what music you will create with our beloved synthesizer.

Thank you for signing up for the Teenage Engineering Newsletter.

Have a nice day.

-Teenage Engineering."

Beatseqr Logic Demo

YouTube via solarno72 | January 10, 2011 |

"This is part one of my testing of Steve Cooley's awesome handbuilt Beatseqr 16-step sequencer and MIDI controller. In parts one and two I am using the Beatseqr to trigger sounds from the default Ultrabeat sound bank.

Part one looks at the basic functions of the Beatseqr. Part two shows how I have used it to lay down a 'live' drum sequence during a studio project.

For more info on the Beatseqr project visit http://www.beatseqr.com

Thanks Steve!"
