NAMM 2013: KOMA Elektronik announces the RH-301 Rhythm and Utility Pedal!
Published on Jan 19, 2013 KOMA Elektronik·36 videos
New pedal features master clock with tap tempo, versatile LFO, envelope generator, MIDI and 14-point CV patch bay.
Berlin based musical instruments manufacturer KOMA Elektronik are very happy to announce a brand new pedal: the KOMA RH-301 Rhythm Workstation / Utility Tool! The RH-301 is KOMA Elektronik's solution for a problem many musicians are struggling with: analog and digital equipment that needs to run side by side in sync without running out of control, which is not always an easy task! That is why KOMA decided to build a 'Master Sync Station' that helps electronic musicians get the most out of their equipment by properly syncing (a large amount of) devices in many different ways and add some cool tricks along the way...
Master Clock
The beating heart of the pedal is the master clock, of which the tempo can be set by turning the tempo knob, by tapping a tempo on the tap button, by syncing it to MIDI or to an external CV clock signal. Besides the normal clock output the user can also divide the signal with the Divisions knob and send a faster or slower clock signal via the two Division Outputs. The generated clock signals can be passed on via CV with the two Clock Outputs, two Division Outputs or via the MIDI Output. An incoming MIDI signal can also be passed through via the MIDI Through and Out jacks.
LFO
The second feature of the RH-301 is the LFO, which can be synced to the master clock or run freely from 0,25 Hz to 260 Hz in five different shapes: sine, triangle, square, S&H and noise. This means the pedal can also be used as an oscillator, when the user turns the LFO up into the audible ranges. When the LFO is in Sync-Mode the user can choose the same divisions as the divisions of the master clock. The LFO has two separate outputs on the patch bay: LFO Out and LFO Inverted Out. All the features of the LFO are also controllable via control voltage, the pedal boasts CV inputs for LFO Speed, LFO Reset and LFO Symmetry.
Envelope Generator
The third feature of the pedal is an Envelope Generator that can be easily synced to the master clock as, or run in loop mode. Besides the normal controls for Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release the pedal comes with a Range knob to set the range of the envelopes created. The Envelope Generator comes with a normal Envelope Output, but also an Inverted Output. The Envelope Generator can be triggered by an external Gate CV Source through the Envelope Gate Input.
Besides all these features, the RH-301 also comes with a built-in KOMA Elektronik sensor, which has a separate CV Output on the patch bay as well.. Plenty of functions to get creative with, because no matter what your setup is, digital or analog or all mised together, if you use a Modular synthesizer, DAW, drum computer, synthesizer or KOMA's own BD-101 and FT-201 effect pedals, the RH-301 is a effective tool to make sure they all walk in line!
The RH-301 will be on display and ready for testing at NAMM'13 at booths 1170 in Hall E (Analogue Haven) and 6735 in Hall A (Big City Music).
MRSP: To Be Announced! The RH-301 will be available in the beginning of Q2 of 2013 at KOMA Elektronik dealers worldwide and directly from KOMA Elektronik's webstore at www.koma-elektronik.com."

"Pure 208, only 4th part has some outboard delay.
Reverberation - 208's spring reverb."

Studio electronics Omega 2

"This Omega 2 SC is the most affordable Studio electronics Omega model. It's a duophonic synthetizer. You can either play two notes at a time, either play in unisson to get a huge sound, split the keyboard with 2 different sounds or stack 2 different sounds (thus, in this last case, play monophonic). An analog synth that can rival this synth is probably another Omega with more voices.
Specifications & Options
Except the number of voices and the memory (this synth offers 128 Multimode patches and 256 Factory Presets), full specification of this synth is available at SE web site.
This synthesizer comes with three voltage controlled discrete analog filters: 24db (classic Moog®), 12db (classic Oberheim® - incorporates low pass, band pass, high pass and band reject modes) and classic Roland® 303. Each voice can access all 3 filters.
This Omega is fitted with a "Fuzz" circuit for amp overdrive and saturation, switchable on voice 1 only, or on both voices (see the video demo I recently recorded and uploaded to YouTube : "Omega 2 overdrive demo").
This "Fuzz" circuit is a genuine Studio electronics circuit. Only available as an option for the CODE serie, this option makes this synth unique. The power switch, on the front panel has been moved to the back, close to the power socket, and replaced by a 3 positions overdrive switch."

Optical synth + korg Emx + Kaoss pad
Published on Jan 19, 2013 Gavin Howe·3 videos
"Made my first "synth theremin" yesterday, sending it through the audio in+comb on the emx with flanger pitch shift (-12) and some short delay, then into kp3 for stereo delay, just playing around with different capacitors and korg effects. All sounds originate from the optical synth.
enjoy:)"
