Malekko SCRUTATOR bit & sample rate reducer pedal teaser

Published on May 12, 2015 Malekko HeavyIndustry

https://malekkoheavyindustry.com

"Teaser vid of Elijah Boland playing through the new Scrutator pedal!
Controls: sample rate, bit rate, filter (selectable band pass or low pass), filter resonance, pre amp, mix (100% dry to 100% wet), assignable expression pedal/cv control. The expression pedal can be assigned to any combination of these controls: sample rate, bit rate, filter frequency, filter resonance, and the assignment is both positive or negative throw! So, of course, assign the sample rate to +100% and the bit to -100% and rock the expression pedal back and forth to sweep between sample rate reduction and bit rate reduction! This pedal loves cv! Sounds incredible with synths! Available soon!! I know, not soon enough..."

Moog MF-104M Analog Delay Production Suspended

via Moog Music

"Effective immediately, Moog Music is suspending production of the MF -104M Analog Delay due to the unavailability of a critical Bucket Brigade Device (BBD) chip. When, and if, we are able to source more of these rare chips, we will resume limited production of this beloved Moogerfooger analog effect pedal.

If you are interested in an analog delay from Moog, you can still purchase the MF-Delay Minifooger pedal and the 500 Series Analog Delay, which are both in stock at authorized Moog dealers."

Seaboard Stories: Reach Far

Published on May 1, 2015 ROLI

"‘Reach Far’ is the first in a series of films about people using the Seaboard GRAND to do new and exciting things. Find out how Central Bucks High School West​ in Pennsylvania became the first ever school to own a Seaboard and ended up putting on a concert featuring their students and Grammy-winning Snarky Puppy​ keyboardist Cory Henry​. You can read the full story from ROLI founder and Seaboard inventor Roland Lamb at https://www.roli.com/blog/seaboard-st...."

And the press release:

Pennsylvania high school students and community come together to 'Reach Far' with Seaboard GRAND
New musical instrument inspires high school community to raise funds and put on special concert event.

LONDON, UK - ROLI, the award-winning East London design-led technology company and creator of the innovative Seaboard GRAND, released a short film entitled ‘Reach Far’, which tells the story of Central Bucks West High School’s journey to become the first high school in the world to acquire a ROLI Seaboard GRAND - and captures how the instrument inspired them to produce a unique student concert and community event.

On January 17, 2015, CB West High School students, faculty and alumni organised and participated in a concert in Pennsylvania that centered on a series of diverse Seaboard-inspired performances. The concert featured original pieces written specifically to highlight the Seaboard GRAND, in addition to reinterpretations of standard classical and jazz repertoire. The school’s band director, Neil Delson, led the concert event which also included composer alumni, and guest artist Cory Henry (acclaimed solo artist and Grammy-winning keyboardist for Snarky Puppy).

Roland Lamb, ROLI Founder and CEO, wrote on the ROLI blog about how the concert came to be organised: “One of [Neil’s] students, Sam Schumacher… had seen a video of the Seaboard GRAND on YouTube. Neil... shared his infectious enthusiasm with other students and teachers at the school. This sparked burgeoning interest among the wider community, with parents and board members forming a ‘Seaboard Committee’ who in turn partnered with the music department and OOKA, a local Japanese restaurant, to raise the funds to purchase a Seaboard GRAND Limited First Edition.”

He went on to describe the atmosphere on the day itself, as months of rehearsal and preparation came together for what was to be a unique performance: “I arrived the afternoon of the concert, and from the moment I walked into the band room, I was struck by the musical ambition among the students... The gravity of passion in the room was inspiring, and I felt both the power of music in bringing people together, and the power of people in creating new musical experiences,” Lamb said.

‘Reach Far’ will be the first in a series of short films about people making music with the Seaboard in innovative ways that will feature on ROLI’s recently relaunched website.

The Seaboard GRAND, hailed as "a visionary electric piano” and "the piano of the future”, reimagines the piano keyboard as a soft, continuous, pressure-sensitive surface. The Seaboard’s patented SEA interface technology allows players to manipulate notes through subtle gestures of their fingers in real-time, marrying the intuitiveness of a traditional instrument with the versatility of digital technology. ROLI has brought together years of innovation in several disciplines to realize this concept as a refined product, which has earned them accolades such as the SXSW Music Accelerator and the Design Museum’s Design of the Year, Product.
