Analog Drums (Modular Univox SR-55)

YouTube Uploaded by SeaweedFactory on Mar 23, 2011

"Here's a modular Univox SR-55, AKA Korg Mini pops 3. I've removed it from it's odd-shaped case and reworked the circuitry to fit into my second modular synth cabinet. The pattern producing circuitry has been removed, as the drum machine has been fitted with proper trigger inputs.

Each trigger input uses a simple op-amp inverter to produce the negative polarity triggers this machine requires. By varying the pulse width of the trigger, different sounds can be produced.

This sequence is produced by a clock divider, as well as a sample and hold circuit.

M-Audio Venom Review and Interview with Product Manager Taiho Yamada

A quick note: This review is long. You can jump to sections that interest you vs. reading it straight through if you prefer. This review focuses primarily on the synth engine for one single patch on the Venom. The Venom supports Multi mode with up to four multitimbral parts. Not only can you layer sound programs but you can set global parameters for the set. Be sure to see the Multi mode section of "Tips and Tricks via Taiho Yamada" at the end of this post. Taiho is the Lead Project Manager of the Venom and served as my contact during the review. I want to thank Taiho for his help and enthusiastic generosity. He is a true synthesist and the Venom is his baby.

Synth connections: Taiho previously worked at Alesis on the Andromeda A6. The DSP developer of the Venom worked on Radikal Technologies' Spectralis and the Accelerator. People that contributed to the presets via sound design include Richard Devine, Francis Preve, Mark Ovenden (Avid's AIR Instruments, ProTools VIs), Joerg Huettner (Waldorf, Access, Alesis), and of course Taiho Yamada.

*Don't miss the "Q&A with Taiho" section towards the end of the review. Also keep an eye out for "Taiho's Tips and Tricks" throughout the review in grey. You can find the consolidated list below the Q&A section.
