mi.1 : Wireless MIDI Interface From QUICCO SOUND on Indiegogo

mi.1 : Wireless MIDI Interface from QUICCO SOUND on Vimeo.

mi.1 is a wireless MIDI interface between Digital Piano and iPhone or iPad.

On Indiegogo here.

This looks promising. There are other wireless MIDI adapters on the market, but look a the size of this. It's virtually seamless. Also note the iPad integration.

Some synth spotting at 3:00. I met QUICCO SOUND at NAMM. They are also coming out with a bluetooth wireless MIDI controller. The designers are ex Roland and Yamaha. One designed the Roland JP-8000.

When you think of Absynth, evolving pads and soundscapes usually come to mind. Here are some harsher timbres.

Playing the Sqeech Synthesizer for iPad

Published on May 9, 2014 sqeech·5 videos

"Playing music with the Sqeech synthesizer for iPad. Sqeech is now available on the AppStore."

iTunes: Sqeech - jtrue.com

"Fingers drip music and this app is the paper. Made for musicians looking for a responsive musical instrument with a huge range of sound, Sqeech delivers perfect audio that's both thick and nimble. It's an essential arrow in your music quiver.

This App is a multi-touch frequency synthesizer rendering eight cd-quality bendable audio waveform channels at any range on demand. The keyboard and output range are completely customizable with three powerful modes of sound: spectrum gives you a full oscillator; chromatic mode using half steps; or choose a major key.

Designed for flow, you can join in to any live acoustic set or electronic machination instantly. Sqeech can deliver deep bass or high-end electronic rain on one fret board. This tool was made for the hand to groove.

Responds to eight simultaneous touches by the user. A vibrato is achieved with a side to side pulsing of the fingers. Each touch has a separate volume channel so you get a rich live sound. Additionally two propellor filters (Sun & Moon) give additional firefly squeeching effects with full live control over pitch and speed from a finger.

Here's a few more features:

Key Range Bar: The range bar let's you instantly select a pitch threshold for the fretboard. You can change as you play. A smaller range makes more room for your fingers to add vibrato to your sound.

Pitch Slider: You can bend all sounds currently playing by using the slider bar. Releasing the slider from the high right side gives you a slow dramatic pitch fall you can add expressions to as it falls automatically.

Sun Propellor: This propeller always affects your solo finger only. Raising the sun on the screen causes the propellors pitch to go higher or lower. Left-to-right affects the propellors speed in real time giving you an powerful solo button you and squeech out a melody with.

Moon Propellor: The moon affects everything the sun does not. This gives you a more rhythmic effect since it broadcasts through the remaining fingers. It's speed and pitch are controlling similar to the sun. Double-click to turn on pitch snapping and the propellor will conform to the nearest half step. This allows you to form any triad sequence and play it with one finger setting the root note. Both propellors really open Sqeech up as an expressive electronic vocal."

E102 Quad Temporal Shifter - Noise Demo #2

Published on May 9, 2014 John L Rice·263 videos

"In this video I'm experimenting with one of the digital noise types produced by a prototype sample of the soon to be released Synth Tech E102 module as a modulation source for several other modules.

This module does a lot more than just noise too! Keep an eye out for future videos that will demo the E102's ASR (Analog Shift Register) capabilities! Here is an audio only taste on SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/johnlrice/e102..."
