"Original tune in Ambient Spacey style performed on the Prophet-6 Synthesizer...I call it Space Voice. Listen to the rich analog synth textures of unaltered Preset 316 which is called "Higher than the Sweep" by Dave Smith Instruments."

Modular Dronebient

Published on Sep 19, 2015 FatSynthDude

"Kinda funny how I really have to be in the mood to listen to ambient, drone, and noise but since getting into Eurocrack I can't get enough of making them.

There's a whole lot going into this patch but the key player here is the Doepfer Seq Switch clocked at audio rate so that it's hyperactively switching between four different oscillators and creating this wild moving harmonic oscillator.

The other big key to this patch is the Soundmachines modules. All they're really doing is controlling the gain on the Doepfer QVCA, but man are they sexy to play with and look at! I have dreams of one day owning a skiff full of those modules just to perform with; I'd have an LP1 for each thumb and an LS1 for each of my other fingers.

Speaking of the LP1, the pressure axis controls the gain for the VCA running the Blue Lantern Asteroid BD.

The Flame Talking Synth and the MFB Kraftwerg also make significant amounts of noise."

Roland System-500 Analog Modules by Malekko - Final Production Prototypes - World Premier

Published on Sep 19, 2015 Genshi Media Group

"This is an uncut, rough video of an event I attended earlier today which was the world premier of the final production prototypes of the Roland System-500 eurorack analog modules, made by Malekko Heavy Industry in Portland Oregon. The presentation is by the creator himself, Joshua Holly of Malekko. It's an almost 30 minute video from a bad angle and I wasn't able to get a direct audio feed, but it still sounds pretty good and has lot's of good info regarding these modules (they're nicer than I expected, to be honest.)"

New Mini Roland JP-08 Image Leaked

Update: new post with all three new Roland Boutique synths here.

Rumor is it will run $300.

Follow-up to this post.


One of the three upcoming Roland Boutique Mini synths. This one clearly modeled on the classic Roland Jupiter-8.

Looks like fun to me!

Thoughts?

Update: below is the front panel of a Jupiter-8 from this post, so we can compare them.

Differences:
- The LFO on the new JP-8 has additional waveforms.
- VCO-1 Range has additional 16 and 32 settings.
- VCO-1 has additional waveforms but appears to lose the triangle waveform for two sinewaves.
- VCO-2 Range extends from 16 to 64.
- VCO-2 Waveforms match VCO-1 but instead of noise there appears to be something else.
- On the JP-08 the two ENV Key Follows are moved to one switch with the four possible combinations of key follow for both envelopes, ENV-1 only, ENV-2 only, or Off.
- The arpeggiator on the Jupiter-8 appears to have been replaced with a sequencer on the JP-08.
- There are two Poly modes on the Jupiter-8. The JP-08 has one Poly button. Not sure if both modes are supported.
- The lower and upper hold buttons are absent from the JP-08.
- The JP-08 is missing the master Volume, Balance, and Master Tune knobs. Curious how you adjust volume on it - the VCA Level slider?
- The JP-08 adds two touch strips.

Everything else pretty much looks spot on.
