This one needs work, but the cat gets the post. Pics of the inside (the synth) below.

"As is no returns no exchanges no refunds. Vintage electronics needs cleaning,restoration and calibration. Not fully working. VCO 1 FUND & VCO 2 FUND & OCT do not appear to make a sound. Noise and VCO 1 OCT appear to function and all other controls have an effect on the sound. All keys sound but will need cleaning. No battery is in the unit and i am unsure if the PROGRAM section will store/retrieve your 8 personal presets.

Cat NOT INCLUDED. ;)
My favorite monosynth of all time. Your chance to get one cheap and repair yourself or get a trustworthy tech. "

Another Waldorf NAMM Teaser: The Cheese Speaking Vocoder?

Another via sequencer.de.

OK, now it's just getting silly, or dare we say... cheesy? Teasers of the teaser. Nice Cheeze knob. There's also a "mauldunst" labeled one below.

"Sprechkäse (talking cheese)
makes not even sense in German, but..

White noise generator
Pulse oscillator (0-1 khz).
16 Filters
14 x 6th order active bandpass
1 x lowpass
1 x highpass
16 Envelope followers and modulators.

looks like some1 had real fun! ;) we start not to believe it or some1 wants to confuse us and think.. noooo, that’s not real.. huh?

sprechkaese

since you can so more nonsense with it..
is that an anagram? ask your german friends – this isn’t even a name, it’s just something you might want to clean your teeth after.."

New NAMM Rumor: Waldorf Kassettenspieler Desktop Tape Loop Synthesizer Coming to NAMM?

Spotted this one on sequencer.de. This is of course only a rumor at this point, but you never know. Waldorf of did release the Streichfett desktop string synthesizer, as well as the Zarenbourg electric piano, so a mellotronesque desktop synth wouldn't be all that far-fetched.

"Waldorf 'Kassettenspieler'

Tapeloop Synthesizer
inspired by the legendary sounds of tape machines
Upload any kind of samples
– ARM Processor
– Analog Multimode Filter
– 128 GB Internal Flash Memory
– Stereo Output
– USB connection for transferring samples
– MIDI In and Out
– Software Editor for samples
– Digital FX section with Reverb/Phaser from Streichfett plus Tape Delay and Vacuum Distortion emulation
– 12 Memory Location (same as Streichfett)

as you can see it is more like a sampler than based on a tape – it has real memory so it is a simple sampler based on entry level processor kit – we don’t know if this is for real or not. but here’s some images, that look like something of a truth might be in there..?"

What do you all think?

Side note: remember to see the NAMM2016 channel at the bottom of this post for everything that has come in so far!

Axoloti SH-101 style sequencer

Published on Jan 5, 2016 chaosmoon

"A simple standalone midi sequencer inspired by the SH-101. The volum slider on the midi keyboard (hosted via USB by the Axoloti) puts the sequencer in record or playback mode. In record mode it memorizes notes input by the keyboard. Once put back into playback mode it will cycle through the notes, triggered by incoming midi notes; In this case a silent drum track on the Korg ER-1. The outgoing midi notes are sent to the Mutable Instruments Shruthi. I have a newer version of the sequencer in the pipeline with 8 memories. Eventually i'll make a version that can easily be combined with onboard synths made on the Axoloti."
