The Story Behind Mutable Instruments Anushri
Mutable Instruments has a post up on the making of their latest project Anushri. You'll find the first mention of it with a video posted here back on August 1, a different build captured here on October 9th with the feature set added on the 12th, and some audio demos posted here on October 31st. PCBs are available at Mutable Instruments here.
"The Anushri project actually has three roots. One of them was a concept for a synth 'celebrating' the SSM2164, using one of these chips for each voltage-controlled element (dual VCO, VCF, and VCA), which I started simulating in september 2011 and abandoned given the complexity of the resulting machine which would be unsuitable for a kit. The second was a concept for an 'analog control board' for the Shruthi-1, replacing the digital oscillators by a single VCO – a kind of upgrade to the Sidekick. Given the increasing complexity of Shruthi-1 filter boards – which relied on digital switching, and the difficulty of cramming a full VCO circuit and LFOs/envelopes in the small board space, not to mention a MIDI->CV converter to make it useful, this project did not go very far. The last project came from a small synth manufacturer who asked me a quote for designing the digital logic of an analogue synth (MIDI>CV, arpeggiator and digital LFOs). This intrigued me and I sort of worked my way through half of the code for this to see how easy it would be given that all the functional blocks were available from existing projects. All these were 'scratch an itch' side projects, rather than something I really believed in as a product..." You'll find the full story at Mutable Instruments here.
