"This was Roland's first synth (and indeed first instrument); it was introduced in 1973. Discrete components and one of the warmest and fattest filters - many compare it to a Moog - make for a great synth that hides its capabilities well beneath its home-organ lookalike exterior. From fat and funky wobbly basslines to squelchy soaring leads via prog-rock floatiness, this synth effortlessly delivers some stunning sounds - as well as a multitude of 'authentic' recreations of acoustic instruments in preset form - and is a joy to play - quality pots and sliders shame today's penny-pinching manufacturing..."

Demo of an interactive version of Steve Reich's "Piano Phase" using uPhase+ and uPhase Client on 4 iPads.
The phase is quicker than in the original.

"Moog Music, Inc. in its Cheektowaga, NY location (just outside Buffalo), where it was located from 1975 to about 1985. The company shut down after that, and re-emerged in 2002, after Bob won a legal battle to use the Moog name. Any former Moog Music (Buffalo) employees out there? We'd love to hear your memories."
"Recorded in Ableton. This is the Mochika's own synth in both 2V and 4V modes and LP/HP Filters (KORG MS-20 filter circuit-clone). iZotope Ozone 5 and UAD Limiting Compressor used. I also ran the mono-in into my KORG EMX Tube-Amp then into M-Audio Octane pres/A-D conversion into Ableton."
"Sunsine Audio is back with Impact, a set of 64 new presets for Impaktor, the acclaimed five star drum app from Beepstreet, developer of the venerable Sunrizer. This pack makes full use of every aspect of both synthesis engines. Physical Modeling is explored through the "Membrane" and "Resonator" sections, Noise Shaping through the "Noise + Vocoder" section, and Frequency Modulation though the FM synthesizer section. Many of the presets contain a combination of these techniques interacting and combining in various ways, including some "tuned" presets that allow playing discreet pitches in a scale depending on the frequency of the impulse. In this manner some presets allow a melody to be played in the style or spirit of a talking drum or steel drum.
The sounds in this set range from classic "ethnic" sound types such as clay or frame, steel, or talking drums, to more traditional electronic sounding drums, and finally futuristic style percussion and drum sounds which may be defined as industrial, alien, or hybrid instruments.
*Requirements: Compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad. Requires iOS 5.0 or later.*
