Creamware / Sonic Core CS 8000 ASB

A mockup via Laurie in The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge

Of course Creamware made the Minimax ASB (poly Minimoog), Prodyssey ASB (poly ARP Odyssey), the Pro 12 ASB (SCE Prophet-5) and the B4000 ASB (Hammond B3). A CS 8000 ASB based on the Yamaha CS80 would have been a nice addition. The models in the ASB boxes were based on the models Creamware provided for their initial DSP cards. I don't believe they ever had a model for the CS80 and I don't believe Sonic Core did either. You can see the current list of Sonic Core Plug-Ins here. With Arturia having entered the hardware synth market with the Minibrute and Microbrute, it makes you wonder if porting their software models to hardware boxes similar to the ASB boxes from Creamware would be worthwhile.

"A patch made on my home-made analog modular synth. Features a lot of cross-modulating oscillators, FM, Ring mod and some electronic drum sounds."

via Quincas Moreira on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge

"features a lot of cross modulation, FM between two VCOs, Ring Mod between a VCO and a self-oscillating filter, and the Hex Inverter Jupiter Storm, as well and the MFOS dual VC Echo and a Thomas Henry Quad drum voice."

KORG Volca unboxing and test

Published on Mar 20, 2014 MiK-Music·57 videos

"I initially ordered those Volcas in December, but that store in UK deleted it silently for some totally stupid reasons. Okay, they ruined my xmas and lost me as a customer.

Some days ago, i found the set of all 3 for a nice price at a store in Germany and couldn't resist to finally get them.

Great toys, lots of fun, great sound (but a bit noisy). I wanted to overdub the audio track but i had several problems with the HD recorder, 3 takes went wrong due to some problems with it, 4th take stopped due to empty camcorder battery, in this 5th take i forgot to arm the channels for recording. Wasn't my day. But i will definitely not repeat this again, so it goes out with the sound as recorded from the camcorder. Sorry for this, i hope you like it anyway."

Cwejman AP-1 Audio Processor + STG Soundlabs COM

Published on Mar 20, 2014 bigcitymusic·315 videos

"In this patch example we've processed a microphone through the Cwejman AP-1 to gain 'breath control' over the Cwejman RG-6 clock to generate rapid bursts of gate via the AP-1's envelope follower. The patch is extended further by utilizing the envelope follower with a comparator, which allows triggers to be extracted from the transients of the signal that is being followed by setting a variable threshold in the STG .Com. When this amplitude of the envelope followed signal is greater than the threshold level of the STG .Com, the gate is open, and when the amplitude is less than the threshold level of the comparator, the gate closes.

In the second example at 03:15, a drum beat is run through the AP-1. The envelope follow function of the AP-1 is used to modulate the oscillator sync ratio of the Cwejman D-LFO. The envelope follower has been multed out through the comparator and when the threshold is crossed, the 4ms Pingable LFO is pinged which in turn modulates the cutoff of the Mutable Instruments Ripples which is processing the D-LFO."

ARP AXXE AUDIO INPUT

Published on Mar 20, 2014 Jason Basson·173 videos

"Although I have my Axxe since quiet some time, I never ran something through it's audio input! Here I quickly programmed some beats in a TR-606 and released it into the Axxe: with some very nice results!"

SLOPE114 for Church Of Super Serge 3/15/14 at Robotspeak

Published on Mar 16, 2014 Dmitri SFC·128 videos

Left channel audio only for the video above. The audio is better in the two videos further below. Below them you'll find the bandcamp embed for the release.

These are videos for Church Of Super Serge at Robotspeak in San Francisco last Saturday with Shiro Fujioka (you can see Shiro's performance here).

Dmitri is the man behind COA-Modular, makers of Serge panels and modules based on CGS.

Some additional details via Dmitri: "This month for the Church Of Super Serge we booked Shiro Fujioka AKA VoltageCtrlR to play his euro rack & Elise & I represented for the serge side of things by playing my / The Serge Monolyth as Slope114. Here are the videos in some kind of order. PS: Ive been horrible at documenting these events, anybody out there want to help? Just show up at the next Church & let me know 589, 1/2 Haight st. (robotspeak) every third Saturday @ 3pm

I for some reason thought I was recording our Slope 114 set & in the heat of the moment failed miserably with the audio recording BUT luckily Elise & I recorded a practice session the night before so here is a link to that on band camp. The download is free, it says "name your price" but people should be able to enter zero & still get the file. http://slope114.bandcamp.com/"
