Synthetic Sound Labs JJP SampleCorder - Model 1450 - Preliminary Specifications


"The SSL 1450 JJP SampleCorder module is a humble tribute to Jean-Jacques Perrey and the early musique-concrete pioneers, where small snips of recordings were pieced together into new forms of musical expression. Now you can experiment using true analog sound samples that can be played back with electronic precision.

The SampleCorder is designed around an ISD2560 analog voice recorder chip, and includes compander chip to reduce noise and improve clarity.

Each module can hold two samples, each from a few milliseconds up to about 30 seconds. Each can be triggered manually via a panel mounted button, or by a gate pulse. A short "done" output pulse is available so that multiple modules can be cascaded. An onboard PIC CPU microprocessor controls timing, and is updateable by replacing a small socketed chip. Once triggered, the sample will play to the end of the sample and stop, and/or proceed to the next triggered sample. Premature retriggering or early truncation of a sample is not possible."

Synthetic Sound Labs Steiner Filter - Model 1020

"The SSL 1020 Steiner Filter is a unique filter for sound shaping that synthesists have long admired for both it's warmth and quirkiness. Invented by Nyle Steiner in the early 1970's, this filter was used in Nyle's Synthacon synthesizer line and has been lovingly recreated and updated as part of our modular line.

At first glance, it may appear to be another 2-pole State Variable type filter with it's high-pass (HP), band-pass (BP) & low-pass (LP) outputs. But that's where things get turned upside down. The 1020 has HP, BP & LP inputs, not outputs. These allow for all sorts of CUTOFF (center frequency) controlled "mixing" of input signals. Due to the unique way it's inventor injected the inputs into the internal signal path, they tend to slightly interact with each other and the control voltages, making the 1020 a bit more organic and unpredictable than many other synth filters. The RESONANCE also interacts with the CUTOFF adding an additional natural touch and warmth. But if you really crank the RESONANCE up, you can make all that warmth go out the window because at or near oscillation, the 1020 starts to squeal and complain like a school girl tantrum. We factory adjust the 1020 to stay just below oscillation at maximum panel settings, but you have the power to adjust this by a circuit board mounted trimmer.

Synthetic Sound Labs Quad LFO - Model 1250

"The SSL 1250 Quad LFO combines four dual waveform (sine/square) low frequency oscillators in one convenient 1 MU module. Why tie up four expensive double width VCO modules if all you need are simple vibratos, trills, slowly morphing timbres or repeating gate sources? Give your synth slow subtile variations or wild cacophonous modulations at lost cost and all within a single module width.

C951 COTK Arpeggiator on MOOG Voyager


YouTube via georgmahr | February 11, 2011 |

"Testing the C951 prototype arpeggiator on the MOOG Voyager. Voyager acts as keyboard, i.e. Voyager MIDI-OUT connected to C951 MIDI-IN. Keyboard and wheels are both "local OFF". Voyager´s ext.env.Gate Input sends NO controller at all (selectable in master menu)"

Vermona Action Filter 2 plus


YouTube via DrSqu | February 11, 2011 |

"In this clip i put the Yamaha AN1x thought the Vermona Action Filter Plus. AN1x comes without FX, and without Filters and EQs. You listen pure Vermona Filter ... later comes the Delay by Logic.

Vermona Action Filter 2+:
- 2 stereo analogue Filters HPF and LPF
- the filters are serial connected as BPF or BEF (Notch)
- On the Backside is a switch for going into Action-Filter mk1 mode
- Major knobs are 2x cutoff and resonance
- there's also an trigger button in function with bypass
- the connectors behind are RCA (Chinch) I/O + also Phono with ground, in stereo

Pictures from inside see on my page www.deepsonic.ch"

"After spending about 20 minutes trying furiously to figure out wtf I was doing with this app, I realized that something very interesting was taking place. This demo was created less than an hour after downloading it, which goes to show how intuitive(although maybe not at VERY FIRST glance ) it actually is.

For those of you that don't know what this video is demoing, you can go check it out at their website:
konkreetlabs.com/​performer/​

I set up OSCulator to route just a few parameters to Live. I want to point out that I'm not doing anything really advanced in this video and pretty much just scratching the surface of what's possible.

I've been waiting for an app that would finally start to really exploit the power of a multi-touch device like the iPad. The app is well designed and beautifull executed.

Sorry about the crappy camera work, it was late and I didn't really realize until half way in that I probably shouldnt have my hand RIGHT IN FRONT of the camera. Better luck next time. Also, the audio is from my camera's mic, which is OK but not great... whatever.

Great work Konkreet Labs!"

New Buchla Drone


YouTube via djangosfire | February 10, 2011 |

"Super short video - just learning my way around my Buchla 200e. This clip features a nice warm 258v Dual Oscillator ..... w/ slight FM from a 259e Twisted Waveform Generator..... sliding through the 200.1 Infinite Phase Shifter. Also making bread & butter beats w/ the Model 077 Pendulum Ratchet at the timing core. A little (very little) sprinkling of 266e Source of Uncertainty via 261e Complex Waveform Generator.

Groovy!"
