Rephazer - Analog Four Firmware 1.22 Try Out

Published on Mar 3, 2016 Rephazer

"Hi guys, Just a little live jam with the Elektron Analog Four which I bought a couple of days ago. Unfortunately I had to sell the OP-1 and got rid of the Novation Circuit as well to finance this thing, but I think I really do have the 'Elektron Virus...'

What a great machines!

Anyway, I flashed the latest firmware which features (along with a lot of other stuff) a 'random probability condition' that I already use a lot..it means for example that you can put steps in the sequencer and they play only 20% of the time.. great stuff for variation :)

This live recording features a lot of that random probability stuff so it's not really a new Rephazer song, but more about messing around with my new toy and it's new Firmware.. :)

I hope you enjoy it, feel free to leave comments and subscribe for more stuff."

This might have been the original video previously featured here. That video was pulled from YouTube so I went ahead and replaced it with the video above. The old description is there.

Dave Smith Instruments Begins Shipping OB-6 Analog Synth

The new DSI OB-6 in conjunction with Tom Oberheim is now shipping! Remember to check prices with the MATRIXSYNTH sponsors on the right. I do not get a commission from them, rather they support the site directly, so please support them in return.

Here is official press release from Dave Smith Instruments:

"Highly Anticipated Tom Oberheim/Dave Smith Collaboration Now Available

San Francisco, CA—March 3, 2016—Dave Smith Instruments today announced that the OB-6, a new 6-voice analog synthesizer with discrete VCOs and filters developed in collaboration with Tom Oberheim, has begun shipping. Boasting a sound engine inspired by Oberheim’s original SEM (the core of his acclaimed 4-voice and 8-voice synthesizers), the new instrument is designed to provide true, vintage SEM tone with the stability and flexibility of modern technology.

Said Smith: “It’s been great fun working with Tom to create this synth. People are going to be blown away by how awesome the OB-6 sounds.” Added Oberheim: “The classic, unmistakable SEM tone is all there. It’s big and bold and it’s going to turn a lot of heads.”

The OB-6 features two discrete voltage-controlled oscillators (plus sub-oscillator) per voice, with continuously variable waveshapes (sawtooth and variable-width pulse, with triangle on oscillator 2). There is a classic SEM-inspired state-variable filter (low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, and notch) per voice. Voltage-controlled amplifiers complete the all-analog signal path.

Present also is X-Mod, with filter envelope and oscillator 2 as modulation sources (with bi-polar control). Destinations include oscillator 1 frequency, oscillator 1 shape, oscillator 1 pulse width, filter cutoff, and filter mode. The knob-per-function front panel puts virtually all parameters at a user’s fingertips. Toggling on the Manual switch enables live panel mode, in which the OB-6 switches to the current settings of its knobs and switches.

A dual effects section provides studio-quality reverbs, delays (including standard and BBD), chorus, and faithful recreations of Tom Oberheim’s acclaimed phase shifter and ring modulator. The effects are digital, with 24-bit, 48 kHz resolution, but a true bypass maintains a full analog signal path. Additionally, the OB-6 features a multimode arpeggiator and a polyphonic step sequencer with up to 64 steps (and up to 6 notes per step) plus rests. It allows polyphonic keyboard input and can sync to external MIDI clock.

The full-size, four-octave, semi-weighted keyboard is velocity and aftertouch sensitive. Said Dave Smith, “As with the Prophet-6, we made size a primary concern on the OB-6. It’s the right mix of power and portability and it fits right in on-stage or in the studio.”

The OB-6 is manufactured and sold by Dave Smith Instruments. It has a US MAP of $2,999."
