"Tunable from ridiculously LF to way up in the piercing, squeaky territory, and all this in three waveshapes, each with variable pulsewidth / waveshape. A wonderful addition to any eurorack modular!


From the SchneidersLaden website:

“The RS95 by Analogue solutions is a premium, british sounding VCO with waveshaping possiblities. It is based on the RS90 but has more features, predominantly a very special sine wave. The RS95e presented here is technically identical but instead a normal frequency control it features a gorgeous, lockable (!) potentiometer with ten turns. That allows precise fine tune control and adds the look of an EMS synthesizer to the VCO.

The RS95e has three audio outputs: pulse, triangle and sine. The upper shape control affects the pulse width. The lower shape control not only morphs from a falling sawtooth over triangle to a rising saw (or: ramp) but simultaneously alters the sine wave and produces a kind of smoothed, softer sawtooth. Additionally the saw/sine output is a CV-INPUT for the symmetry of the sine. Very extraordinary feature that all are voltage controllable. The oscillator sync is ?soft? and not only reacts to square waves but works with all waveforms. The frequency control has three switchable modes: STD (standard) with a range of two octaves. -2 is two octaves lower than STD. WIDE mode gives a range from 0.3 Hz - 17kHz and thus allows use of the RS-95 as VC-LFO with waveshaping options! The ?vary? control not only attenuates but also can amplify the pitch CV. It controls linearly from 0V over 1V/oct to 0.4 V/oct”

Oberheim Prommer - PROM/Sample Recorder

"Once you get the sample in, you can execute all kinds of modifications of the sample. For example, the "reverse" function is worth the price alone. Reverse the sound of a toilet flushing - it is the ultimate alt percussion experience. The unit comes with a PROM chip; to get you started (plug it in to your DMX for new sounds), and be sure to check out Paul White's Electrongate for other details on this neat device. I have printed out the instruction manual, and this is included with the unit, as well as an AC cable."

1975: The first speech synthesizer IC was born. [To Return in 2015 with Plogue's Chipspeech Project]


Published on Jan 12, 2015 Plogue Art et Technologie, Inc.

"In 1974/1975 Dr. Forrest S. Mozer licensed his unique voice compression technology to Telesensory Systems, Inc. (TSI).

Encoding words was a very complex and time consuming process. Something only he and a few of his colleagues could do. Most of the TSI/Digitalker-using consumer devices of the late 70's and early 80's used Dr Mozer's own voice, compressed by a factor of 100.

This is the voice you are hearing in the video.

Last year we've obtained his authorization to use his voice for our 'chipspeech' project.
Thank you infinitely Dr. Mozer!
