Corsynth C104 Odyssey of Sound VCO - Demo

Published on May 13, 2013 Thalassa77·47 videos

"Corsynth C104 Odyssey of Sound VCO
The C104 Odyssey of Sound VCO is a voltage controlled oscillator based in the discrete core of the ARP VCOs ( 2600, Odyssey... ).

The oscillator has four waveforms available simultaneously ( sine, triangle, saw and square with variable pulse width ). The square wave pulse width goes from 10% to 90% and can be over-modulated. This feature makes possible to created sounds that are not possible in other VCOs.

In addition to the VCO, the module includes a Ring Modulator ( CMOS ) and a Diode Soft Clipping circuit that can be voltage controlled. The RM and the DSC have independent outputs."

Waldorf Boosts Rocket Synthesizer with Free iOS App

"BAD NEUENAHR, GERMANY: high-quality synthesizer developer Waldorf is proud to announce availability of Rocket Control, a free iOS assistant app for iPad that boosts the capabilities of its Rocket hardware synthesizer...

Earlier this year, Waldorf went hell for leather to break the price/performance sound barrier when launching its revolutionary Rocket, a superficially simplistic USB-powered desktop synthesizer with digital waveforms and analogue multimode filter housed in a sturdy, compact and bijou (185 x 185 mm) casing. But beneath an eye-catching faceplate designed by synthesizer style guru Axel Hartmann lies a wealth of ear-opening sounds fit to reach for the stars! To the untrained eye it may look like the Rocket only offers a single oscillator, but truly trained Rocket scientists can soon see (and hear) that its OSC section includes some highly-flexible features: for example, selecting the sawtooth waveform switch then turning the adjacent Wave knob clockwise from the centre position adds up to eight sawtooth waves — wunderbar for producing PolySaw cluster-type sounds; selecting the sawtooth waveform and turning both the Wave and Tune knobs to their respective rightmost position activates a special unison mode whereby all eight sawtooth oscillators sound with frequencies according to the held notes, so playing a chord with up to eight notes results in that chord being played by all eight oscillators, whereas playing a single note produces just that — a single note, albeit with all eight oscillators slightly detuned to enrich the sound. Either way, it’s a big sound from a little box with much more on offer besides! Blast off by selecting Boost to add warm, distorted characteristics, perhaps?

But hitting an attractive price point while maintaing Waldorf’s all-important high-quality synthesizer sound meant making some tough design decisions. Rocket has no patch memories, for instance — no great loss to those creative types who like to sculpt sounds each and every time they play, but useful nonetheless in an age of instant recall.

Which is exactly where Rocket Control comes into play. This free iOS assistant app for iPad acts as a synth editor for the Rocket and allows users to edit and/or save their patches (when connected via a Camera Connection Kit, WiFi MIDI, or a CoreMIDI-compatible device). Edits can be viewed onscreen or edited directly on the iPad itself. Users can even play the Rocket using the Rocket Control keyboard — plus Pitch and Mod wheels!

What’s not to like? Rocket Control is invaluable and free! So do yourself a favour and give your Rocket a sonic boost by heading on over to Apple’s App Store and downloading Rocket Control... then reach for the stars!

iPad owners can directly download Rocket Control from Apple’s App Store for free.

The Rocket synthesizer is available to purchase from Waldorf dealers worldwide with an RRP of €244.00 EUR/$349.99 USD (including tax).

Rocket can be seen and heard in an official product demonstration video" [below]

Malekko analog modules in Livid Elements rack

Malekko analog modules in Livid Elements rack from Livid Instruments on Vimeo.

"We recently added a full row of mostly Malekko modules (http://www.malekkoheavyindustry.com) to a Livid Elements rack. Here's a bit of warmup, recorded from the output of an old-school Bose 501 speaker. There's also a Blue Lantern filter in the mix. This is just a prelude to a complete hybrid digital/analog setup that will merge the best of both worlds for a succubus of synthesis."

"This is a variation on the earlier patch however this time you can see what I'm doing - well you could if I was able to synch the audio and video correctly... (Short of using a clapperboard I have no idea how to do this without SMPTE time codes etc)"
