The Critter & Guitari Bolsa Bass synthesizer features six modes of rich, elemental bass sound, a sequencer and full MIDI capabilities.

The six synthesis modes are:
Circle Ramp
Sawtooth Ramp
Analog Style
Filter Envelope
FM Pad
Bass Delay

The sequencer lets you quickly create bass lines with the touch of a button. You can even record and playback knob adjustments for things like filter sweeps and changes in delay time or tuning! With MIDI IN and OUT jacks you can synchronize your sequences with other devices. The Bolsa Bass also sends and receives note messages so you can use it as a sound module or simple controller.

The entire keyboard may be tuned over a 1-octave range by turning the knob second from right. Volume is controlled by the right-most knob. The function of the remaining two left knobs depend on what mode is selected. The synthesizer modes provide elemental monophonic bass sounds, great for all kinds of musical scenarios. From classic filter sweeps to simple and pure tones, lush FM, and even a stretchy tuned delay which makes great string-like drones.

Subatomic Software Updates "Audulus" for Mac and iPad to v2.1 –
Adds 5 new Nodes, JACK support on iPad

Subatomic Software has announced the release of Audulus 2.1 for iPad and Mac. This update to the modular music processing app adds support for JACK on iPad, as well as five new nodes for both iPad and Mac versions.

JACK for iOS is a free app that allows JACK-compatible apps such as Audulus to be connected in any way, with the only restriction being CPU power.

"JACK is a mature, powerful inter-app audio system," explains Audulus developer W. Taylor Holliday. "It's great to see it ported to iOS."

Audulus 2.1 introduces the Poly Pack, an In-App-Purchase upgrade consisting of four new nodes which facilitate stereo and quadraphonic processing of audio input. Audulus nodes can process multiple channels of audio.

"Previously, the only way to generate a polyphonic signal in Audulus was via the Keyboard node in Poly Mode," explains Holliday. "Now, you can do polyphonic processing of audio input. You can even use the QuadToMono node to apply separate processing chains to each voice of a synth."

"I'm not aware of another app on iOS that gives you this fine-grained control of multi-channel processing," adds Holliday.

Version 2.1 also adds a phasor node (not to be confused with the phaser effect), which outputs a phase angle suitable for driving custom oscillators.

Audulus development is user-driven, and these new features were requested by users on the Audulus forum.

Audulus for iPad is available on the App Store for $9.99, 30% off for the remainder of June to celebrate JACK support.

Audulus for Mac is available on the Mac App Store for $29.99

The Audulus Poly Pack In-App Purchase upgrade is priced at $4.99

A joygasmically ballztastic synthy blues shred jam on nine keyboards!

Published on Jun 4, 2013

"More music on umop.com/parallax.htm

The blues was not meant to evolve into this. It was not meant for a scrawny, ashen man-child idiotically kanoodling in his air-conditioned man-cave filled with rare, blinkety-blinking Japanese noiseboxes. But it's 2013 and this is just what it's come to!

Sorry I haven't uploaded any movies in a while. Or maybe I should say YOU'RE WELCOME if it's going to be this kind of thing, eh? I really would like a vacation from this person that I've become. Sometimes I wish I was more like a cool bass-player type dude with big arms & knows how to work on cars. Or maybe not even a musician at all... maybe just a ranch hand from Wyoming who knows fourteen different types of hay. And can bale the shit out of any of them.

Why am I still typing"

Hexinverter Jupiter Storm Demo

Published on Jun 4, 2013 Oliver Chesler·76 videos

"I picked up a Jupiter Storm Eurorack module from Hexinverter at Control last week. Hex's vcNOIZ became an instant favorite of mine so after less than a minute demoing the "JS" at the store I knew I had to have it. It's basically 3 special noise oscillators, CV inputs and several outputs. In my demo video above I start off with just a basic output, show you how it sounds going stereo out, I engage the Noise Core Disruptor, modulate with with a Synthesis Technology E355 LFO, FM it with a vcNOIZ and finally sequence it with a Doepfer Dark Time. This is a very fun and useful module. There is a breakout coming later this year that will add even more functionality."

Delptronics Thunderclap Anlog Hand Clap Demo

Published on Jun 4, 2013 Delptronics·6 videos

"Demo of the Delptronics Thunderclap analog hand clap effect, sequenced by the Trigger Man with a few LDB-1e drum sounds thrown in.

The Delptronics Thunderclap is a classic analog hand clap effect based on the famous hand clap sound of the TR-808 and TR-909 drum machines. Our version has extra knobs to tweak the sound from claps to finger snaps to snares to cymbals to thunderous crashes. It can be triggered by the button or externally. It even has a built-in mini sequencer.

The Thunderclap stompbox comes fully assembled and tested in a heavy-duty aluminum enclosure with awesome graphics. It is also available as a kit to build your own stompbox or module. The Eurorack version of the kit comes with a gold plated black panel.
