Synthesizer has:
— 3-octave keyboard;
— modulator, modulation voltage from which is applied to frequency modulator, width modulator, filter, and amplifier;
— broad band oscillators 1 and 2 (with various waveforms);
— mixer, designed for summation of signals from oscillators 1 and 2, noise generator, external source, and ring modulator;
— filter, designed for dynamic and static changing of the spectrum of summarized signal from mixer output;

Organ has:
— 5-octave keyboard;

six patches [eurorack synth]


YouTube Uploaded by donaldjasoncrunk on Feb 27, 2012

"six patches in 8:25 - some of these are 'tonal', some are not. this is patching with abandon.

of special note on these patches are the STG Soundlabs .COM comparator and .MIX moog CP3 based mixer - both of these have incredibly pleasant gain and 'imperfect' attributes.

special thanks also to Hahn Amplifiers for the awesome custom case!"

This is the sound of 2 x micromac units with the lead solo sounds coming from the sister unit- the Photon! Occassionaly, I wear a hat...please excuse!"

Seline Ultimate - iPad music app - Teaser



YouTube Uploaded by AmidioInc on Feb 27, 2012

"Using the 'overdub' function in the all-new Seline Ultimate, to create a track in less than a minute. MIDI is also recorded, so you can take what you've created straight into the studio!"

Seline Ultimate - Unique Ergonomic Musical Instrument with MIDI - Amidio Inc.

"Seline 2.0 Ultimate is based upon the award-winning concept of the original Seline HD, but is so much better in every way.

"...Gorgeous, futuristic music making app... one of the most ambitious apps I've seen on the iPad, period." - Gizmodo

The application has evolved from the "concept" to the "real workhorse" level and is now a very powerful musical tool, for instant production of tons of first-class musical ideas. The melodies can now be recorded to .WAV/.M4A and MIDI simultaneously. Hardware, virtual, wireless MIDI in/out, as well as Audio Copy/Paste are fully supported. There are 30 built-in instruments, 6 drones, 8 drumloops, and more downloadable content is available through the built-in app SHOP.

Seline is a great live performance and improvisation music instrument that will keep you playing for hours, even if you haven't touched any music instrument before. The sound is altered on the fly with a dozen of subtle AI algorhythms that add unbelievable expression, character and life to your music. Drones (chorded synth pads) are generated on-the-fly based on the complex analysis of your melody line and provide an excellent background layer for your melody.

***** Seline 1.0 was the iPad App of the week by Gizmodo & CultOfMac *****
***** Seline 1.0 has been featured by Apple as New & Noteworthy in August 2010 *****

Seline features a completely new, ergonomically designed playing surface called ioGrid, suitable for players with all hand sizes. The melodies are played with two hands, while keeping the iPad on the knees or on the table. Fully adjustable 16-note scale is divided into 2 parts (odd and even), which are then mapped on the left and right grids. Such way of note mapping is beneficial to the existing linear scale mapping solutions as it allows many more improvisation possibilities. And, of course, the player is never out of tune.

The completely redesigned, realistic-looking interface called ioGrid 2.0 brings many improvements to the original ioGrid. The white keys now represent the opposite part of the scale, thus all the scale is available for performance using only one hand. The variable-length note-to-note pitch slides are performed just by sliding between the yellow and the white keys with different speed. Resting your palm on the "pads" at the bottom of the screen allows to pitch-bend each note as on a regular controller.

=====

Symbiosis of research, technology, and passion... Seline is the latest, most innovative and best-sounding music instrument for the iPad, aimed at easy creation of complicated, soulful, intricate melodies, backed with lush soundscapes. Record them all, and you'll never run out of musical ideas!
