"The e355 is a 14hp euro module with 2 lfos that use our unique morphing algorithm to create over 10,000 different wave forms. the 2 outputs can vary from 1 cycle in 12 minutes to 1000hz in 2 ranges and the use of a 24mhz 32-bit arm processor allows the frequency to be stable over temperature and during years of use.

It has features to make it useful in both live and studio use. the 2 lfos are "locked" to each other in one of 3 ways, selectable by a panel switch:
lfo2 and lfo1 have independent rates and the same waveshape and phase
lfo2 has independent waveshape but the same rate and phase as lfo1
*lfo1 and lfo2 have the same rate and wave shape but variable phase from 0 -360 degrees
lfo1 can be thought as the ‘master’ lfo as it always has independent rate, fm and morphing. the lfos track 1v/oct and all parameters are under voltage control. there are 2 leds that vary brightness based on output amplitude in 128 levels.

The e355 using the same morphing engine as the e350 morphing terrarium. the transition from one stored wavetable to another is broken down into 4096 calculated waves. there are 3 banks of waves to select from:

Bank a: basic waves in order of harmonic complexity (sine, tri, saw up, saw down, 25/50/75% pulses and noise).
Bank b: the waves in bank a are repeated in frequency as 1x, 2x, 3x, ..8x. this allows the lfos to have a very wide range between them if necessary or to use this as a basic audio oscillator (limited to 1khz).
Bank c: these are the 64 waves in bank c of the e350 (designed by robert rich) to go way beyond the ordinary. sequences of notes, arpeggiation effects, pings, swoops and lattice phase modulation are just some of the delights contained. in the audio range these can be harsh, noisy and crunchy.

There are 2 external inputs to either sync the lfos or to hold ('freeze') the outputs.

Specs:
Cv inputs: -5v to +5v, dc to 8khz.
Frequency range (bank a and c): low (12min/cycle – 2hz) high (8sec/cycle to 124hz)
Frequency range (bank b at 8x settings): low (1.5min/cycle -16hz) high (1hz – 1020hz)
Power supply range: +-9v to +-15v (euro and motm connectors provided)
Power supply current (typical): -12v @12ma +12v @ 32ma
Size: 14hp x 17mm depth behind panel"

"So Studio Electronics Midimoog was the right answer. It is actually a real Minimoog (original Minimoog boards) in a different (19") housing with MIDI. Fabulous machine!!!"

Black Octopus Sound - Event Horizon (128 Presets for the John Bowen Solaris)

Black Octopus Sound - Event Horizon (128 Presets for the John Bowen Solaris) by Toby Emerson

"Black Octopus Sound presets Event Horizon - 128 high quality presets for John Bowen Solaris created by Toby Emerson. This soundset offers everything from huge epic pads, long evolving textures, vintage analog style sounds, deep thundering basses, and many other classic leads and keyboard style sounds.

The John Bowen Solaris is simply one of the most fantastic instruments I have ever worked with. Everything about it screams class. From amazing sounding filters to countless oscillator types, I feel after several months of using it I still have not even scratched the surface. The architecture and programming behind it allows for huge sounds which can range from very organic and analog sounding to crisp and precise digital style sounds. The sound quality of this synthesizer is absolutely exceptional and I would highly recommend this synthesizer to any sound designer or professional musician that can budget for it.

All patches are mapped with the joystick controlling the filters. They are best auditioned by leaving the joystick in the middle position and then adjusting it to taste.

I have spent several months creating these patches for the Solaris users and offer them as a free download. However if you feel like they are of value to you I would love a donation or please pick up one of our sample packs as a way to say thanks and to support the creation of future sounds.

A little bit of compression and additional reverb by Valhalla Room has been added."

"*accuLAG* is Master MIDI Beat Clock Generator and Micro-Timing Controller that equips highest preciseness, and unique "Lag Slider" let's you dig your own Groove, designed accurately by Juno Ju-X

Rebuilt all: Same look, rebuilt inside. Brushed up here and there, plus, comes with new MIDI Control Change assignment feature let's you control Lag Sliders by MIDI controllers manually, and also automatically by MIDI sequencers such as Sequera.

What accuLAG does?: Sends MIDI Beat Clock and lags each 1/16th position backward or even forward.

Even more: Lag Position Memory brings a new style of music performance! Also you can control Lag Sliders via MIDI CC!

Typical Setup: Use accuLAG with a Sequencer that receives and syncs to MIDI Beat Clock..."
