MacBeth - Slawson Avenue

Published on Dec 11, 2012 by macbethsynthesizers

"Inspired by visits to Santa Monica, and always seeing the 'turn right' sign for a place called Slawson Avenue- I did this track whilst experimenting with the Micromac-D pre factory model. I'm also using a Korg Prophecy as a controller keyboard and a 'scrapper' SH101 as an analogue sequencer. There's a Roland CR8000 on drums. My latest project Nexus 1 fits in here too! The Micromac series and the Nexus 1 basically complete my synth dream wishes!...I hope you enjoy.....Ken"

Proppellerhead Announces PX7 FM SYNTHESIZER

Published on Dec 11, 2012 by PropellerheadSW

"The PX7 FM Synthesizer is a six operator FM synth for the Reason rack. As a faithful recreation of the popular DX series keyboards, it provides a wealth of new sounds, ranging from classic 80's bass and brass to modern textures, leads and growls."

"The PX7 FM Synthesizer is a six operator FM synth for the Reason rack. As a faithful recreation of the popular DX series keyboards, it provides a wealth of new sounds, ranging from classic 80's bass and brass to modern textures, leads and growls.

But PX7 is not only an emulation of a classic keyboard. With an easier interface, macro controls for quick and powerful tweaking of sounds, stereo spread, and full integration with the Reason rack, it takes FM synthesis into the age of Reason.

In FM synthesis, or Frequency Modulation, sounds are generated by layering or modulating the frequency of sine wave oscillators, called operators. The 32 selectable algorithms decide how the operators are connected, and which modulates what.

The envelopes, one for each operator, are more advanced than those you typically see in synths, with a number of different breakpoints for extremely precise control over the modulation.

With the new macro controls you get tons of new tones out of a single patch — even without a full understanding of FM synthesis.

PX7 includes a great set of new patches and Combinators with sounds ranging from modern to futuristic. But perhaps best of all: the PX7 FM Synthesizer is patch-compatible with the classic it's based on—and faithfully reproduces its trademark tone. A ton of patches from the original is included with PX7. Our online patch converter takes Yamaha DX7 patches and converts them to PX7 format, giving you access to tens of thousands of presets for all styles of music.
