Kawai K5m Digital Synthesizer Demo

Published on Dec 21, 2015 Cloudwalk Music

"The Kawai K5 is a digital synthesizer that uses additive synthesis to create tones. The K5 was first released in 1987. Unfortunately, probably because of new ROMpler workstations like the Korg M1 and Roland D-50, the Kawai K5 was quickly forgotten.
In the demo, you'll see and hear the Kawai K5m, which is the rack mount module version.

The K5 creates tones via additive synthesis. Users can manipulate up to 128 individual harmonics. Programming it can seem complicated at first, but there are some shortcuts to working with it.

All of the original sound presets for the factory bank and the external card banks are still available from Kawai for free download.

Roland JP-08 Sequencer. Oscillators & Cross Modulation.

Published on Dec 20, 2015 Robert Shipe

"Quick demo of the Roland JP-08's two oscillator waveforms, including VCO two's low-frequency sub-oscillators and cross modulation. I also do some quick mods, PWM and filters. Everything is running internally off the JP's sequencer. This is a very cool little piece of kit with some large sounds. I didn't even go into its LFO or Envelopes amongst so many other things). Great synth."

Isotonik Studios Releases Novation Circuit Editor

via Isotonik

"COMPLETE THE CIRCUIT!?
When the Novation Circuit first got pushed across our desk we just got it, in minutes we had a simple tune up and playing whereas with other synths we’d hit brick walls after an hour of fiddling and then we’d pull the plug on the project without finding that spark of inspiration!

Novation then invited us to their head office in High Wycombe to finish work they’d started in an Max patch that would edit the inbuilt sounds for Synth’s ONE and TWO. It was ground we’d trod before in our work with LaunchSync and the LaunchControl XL Step Sequencer, however nothing would prepare us for how deep this one went…

After a few beta rounds of testing, it became apparent that we could develop something pretty special. We’d need a little more help from the team behind the development of the Circuit though. So after a few lengthy Skype sessions the gauntlet was set down…

We all agreed that we wanted to unlock the potential behind the Circuit and develop an Editor that would allow the user to fine tune or completely reshape the onboard sounds. Novation began by developing the latest firmware based on our requests, then we set about providing bi-directional feedback from the unit to the Editor, the advantage of being able to edit the Factory Settings and save them back to session slots was soon surpassed with the ability to overwrite the patches stored in the Circuits ROM. You got two Nova Synths and a bank of 64 patches to play with so that should be plenty!

VOLTLIFE: DS-M variable trigger response

Published on Dec 21, 2015 voltlife

"The Synthrotek DS-M drum module may only have one CV input, but it responds very dynamically to the amplitude and width of the input trigger. This tutorial shows how you can use this to get much more variety out of the DS-M's percussion sounds without having to manually tweak the knobs all the time."
