"The Tom Oberheim Synthesizer Expander Module Pro version, (SEM-PRO), incorporates twenty-one minijacks for signal access to the primary patchpoints in the sonic flow along with the MIDI-to-CV converter.

Each of the SEM-PRO instruments will be personally signed by Tom Oberheim.

Specifications:
SEM with MIDI to CV Converter and integrated patch panel. This version of the SEM combines the features of the MIDI to CV version with a 21-jack CV patch panel and is personally autographed by Tom Oberheim. 21 SEM connections are brought out to 3.5mm minijacks. The basic connections are a one-volt-per-octave VCO control voltage and a standard 0 to +5 volt gate signal.

This version includes a high precision MIDI to CV Converter that has been specifically designed to allow MIDI to control the SEM, and has additional features that make use of the SEM's external inputs. Some of the features of the MIDI to CV Converter are:

* Select MIDI channel, controller number and bend range
* Select note assignment modes: latest, high note and low note priorities
* Select note re-trigger, filter track, LFO reset
* A second independent control bus allows velocity, controller data, or channel pressure to modulate either or both VCOs, the filter and the VCA
* Transpose function allows different keyboard controllers to utilize the complete MIDI note range
* Analog portamento
* Input preamp gain control - allows an external audio input to be processed thru the SEM
* High precision A-440 Hz tune signal
* Control voltages and gate are bought out to rear panel connectors so MIDI to CV function can be used with other CV/Gate gear."

"This thing rocks, you will not find something like this anywhere else. It uses my latest SMT PANEL ALL IN ONE TECHNOLOGY (SPAT) designing. All the parts are on the panel. It has Orange and Red LED's. The red LED's are on every 4 Count. This will not be offered for retail.

THERE ARE PCB LABLES TO TELL YOU WHAT EACH JACK IS

*INPUTS: RESET IN, CLOCK INPUT W/ PASS THRU JACK UNDER IT.
*OUTPUTS: EACH TRACK HAS IT'S OWN GATE OUT

EACH TRACK USES (16) SLIDE SWITCHES TO DECIDE IF YOU WANT A GATE SIGNAL OR NOT. SLIDE UP IS ON, SLIDE DOWN IS OFF.

THERE IS A MANUAL RESET BUTTON

THIS REQUIRES AN EXTERNAL CLOCK SOURCE, IT IS NOT PICKY YOU CAN USE LFO'S,VCO'S, OR TTL CLOCK SIGNAL.

THE AUCTION IS FOR THE MODULE, SCREW SET AND IDC CABLE.

IN THE PICTURES THE ONE THAT IS ON THE RACK IS MINE, I PAINTED RED STRIPES ON MY SWITCHES ON EVERY 4TH NOTE. THE ONE FOR SALE DOES NOT HAVE THOSE MARKINGS."

Spooky Sequencer


YouTube Published on Jun 12, 2012 by hotchk155

"I'm experimenting with different sequencer approaches on the Launchpad. The code is running on a DIY microcontroller board, turning the Launchpad into a standalone MIDI hardware sequencer.

In this clip the top 6 rows of the Launchpad grid are mapped to MIDI notes (counting along and upwards from note C3). When the step counter in the lower 2 rows hits a green square it plays the next green note selected in the grid, same goes for red notes.

A yellow square in the step counter plays next red and green notes together. A yellow note in the grid behaves like both a red and green. The result is two cycling note lines that fall in and out of synch with each other depending on how many notes are selected of each colour. It comes out kind of hypnotic and spooky - not really what I was originally going for, but I ran with it anyway.

The hardware is an FTDI VNC2 chip on a DIY board. I am fighting with the buggy IDE and compiler to try to get a useful standalone hard sequencer/control surface from the Launchpad."

Synthesizers.com Modular & Brian's Debut Electronica Album


Pic in via Brian McNett who has a Kickstarter project up for his debut electronica album. You'll find some audio demos and pics of the synths featured.

"Here's what I'm doing: Eighteen tracks, mostly my own compositions, with some late 19th and early 20th century classical works thrown in, all performed on my synths, everything from Moogs, to DSI Prophet 08, to a big 5U modular, to my iPhone and iPad. It's going to be a tad eclectic and not for everyone, I admit."
