"Thiago Pinheiro presents the Chromaphone 2 acoustic object synthesizer plug-in.
Chromaphone 2 is an acoustic object synthesizer plug-in in VST, Audio Units (AU), RTAS, and AAX formats for Live, Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Cubase, Reaper, Sonar, FL Studio, and many more. Try Chromaphone 2 for free.
"Chromaphone uses acoustic resonators to create drums, percussion, mallet, string, and other unique instruments. They get sparked into life by a mallet and a flexible noise generator.
Modeling based synthesis gives you access to all source and resonator parameters. Customize instruments to perfectly fit your project or follow your inspiration and build entirely new ones for really creative and innovative sound design...
The Effects panel wraps up Chromaphone 2 as an all-inclusive package with awesome polishing tools...
Chromaphone 2 ships with premium performance features: unison, vibrato, and a complete set of MIDI features. And for even more action, Chromaphone provides a user programmable pattern arpeggiator and shortcuts to the high quality effects...
Chromaphone 2 is packed with more than 650 presets from the best sound designers. Instruments span from warm and mellow pitched percussions for melodies to punchy one-shots and kits for rhythm tracks. Twisted, they generate unique textures and soundscapes that will move any film score. Whether real, other-wordly, or with an ethnic touch, Chromaphone will fill your music with rich and organic tones..."
1. KOMA Elektronik Poltergeist Analog Quadraphonic Mixer Teaser
"Teaser video for the new KOMA Elektronik Poltergeist eurorack module. Analog quadraphonic sound recorded with a binaural microphone to illustrate quadraphonic sound best in stereo. The video starts off with the Bastl Tea Kick which is panned to all outputs with the field control. The bassline's panning is sequenced with the Komplex Sequencer. The noise hats come in and are sequenced via sample and hold. Lastly the pad is panned around from the Master Origin from a Intellijel Dixie sawtooth wave.
NOTE: Wear headphones to experience this video correctly. This is a binaural recording of the Poltergeist in a quadraphonic room to best display its capabilities in a stereo setting. Recorded with a Neumann KU-100 binaural mic courtesy of Bohemian Drips in a quadraphonic studio with Neumann KH-120 monitors at Noize Fabrik, Berlin.
2. KOMA Elektronik Poltergeist Example Patch: Crossover
"In this binaural stereo video, we illustrate the Poltergeist with the Crossover example patch from the manual. Input your synthesizer (Anti Oscillator to SVF-201 to Doepfer VCA/Doepfer ADSR) to one channel. Also take the pitch CV (which is sequenced from the Komplex Sequencer) to the Pan CV Input so the sound moves along with the melody. Komplex Sequencer Play Mode and Poltergeist Pan slope are changed throughout to evolve the patch.

3. KOMA Elektronik Poltergeist Example Patch: Dopplerganger
"In this binaural stereo video, the Poltergeist is employed to create two alternating doppler effects. With a pitched sound going through 2 channels, use a slow attack envelope (PEG here) and connect to the Master Origin. Now take a triggerable LFO (Pingable LFO) and connect it to the VCA of both channels as well as the pitch of the VCO. Match the attack time of the envelope to one period of the LFO. Now set the Pan pot of the first channel so the sound comes from Quadrant 3 to Quadrant 1. The second channel is set so the sound moves from Quadrant 4 to 2. You will hear the same sound coming towards you from the front and from the back alternating with each other."
4. KOMA Elektronik Poltergeist Example Patch: Bruce Bickford
"The Poltergeist Quadraphonic mixer in action with the Bruce Bickford patch as found in the manual. Recorded with binaural microphone to illustrate better quadraphonic sound in stereo. Patch your hi-hat sound (in this case Doepfer Noise through the SVF-201 into the Poltergeist VCA that is CVed by the Doepfer ADSR) into a channel. Take the trigger for your hihats also to clock a S&H module that is processing noise. Then take the CV from the S&H into the channel's Pan CV to move the hihats randomly around the quadraphonic field.

In this video the Andromeda deploys an onslaught of non-stop analog sensory bombardment.
All synthesizer audio coming from the Andromeda comprising over 40 original patches. No outboard effects were used, only a few instances of the built-in delays and reverb. All sequencing and arpeggios also from on-board. Rhythm provided by a Roland TR-8. Thanks for watching. Be sure to subscribe, like and comment."
Video features the rarer Red / Burgundy accented Andromeda A6.
"The Casio MT40 looks like a typical 80s home keyboard, however it has a remarkable history. It was used to create a song called Under Mi Sleng Teng... which kicked off the digital Dancehall revolution. The rock drum preset and bass accompaniment are unmistakable and have been used numerous times since.
The MT40 drums are lofi but surprisingly punchy. The Bass is warm and fuzzy and very distinctive. The keyboard instruments are based on 2 mixed variable pulse square waves, with digital envelopes and a low pass filter.
I have given this famous little keyboard the Goldbaby treatment. Using a studio full of tasty analog hardware to sample all the drum sounds as single drum hits and loops ( Rex, Apple and Wav). I have also sampled the bass sound with 4 different signal chains and lastly I multi-sampled 16 of the keyboard tones.
This sample pack pays homage to a very unexpectedly influential instrument. Had a fantastic time creating it and I think it sounds great!
With kits and instruments for Geist, Battery, Reason, Logic, Kontakt and Maschine."
"Welcome to the second video from Synth City. This one is a patch demonstration of the new modules from WMD/SSF, the MMF (Multimode Filter) and the DPLR Delay. Instead of a grand tour of features, Wesley puts the modules into practice, detailing each patch as he goes along.
"CV Trinity has 6 independent channels with CV outputs, each of which can be set to AUTOMATION, LFO or ADSR. Each channel also has a CV INPUT. The selected output [select OUT] outputs a copy of the channel that is selected for editing and lights the indication LED. Use SELECT buttons for selecting the channel and knobs for adjusting its parameters. Pressing the mode button changes between the modes. Clock OUT can be adjusted by holding select button and turning the top knob. Clk OUT is normalized to Clock IN
Automation is 32 step voltage memory with adjustable amount of linear interpolation. Hold the record button and turn RECORD knob to adjust the automation curve. Clock input advances to next automation step. Automations can be variable number of steps and can be clocked either by master clock input or by individial CV inputs.
LFO has RATE that goes up to audiorate, XOR waveshaping and SHAPE selection with ramp, triangle, inverted ramp, flopping ramp, flopping triangle and stepped random voltage source with smoothing. The random signal can be looped. LFO can by synchronized to clock input (different divisions/multiplications are than set with the RATE knob). CV input controls the RATE of the LFO.
ADSR uses the CV input as GATE input for triggering the envelope. It can be linear or exponential, it can be looped and it can either work in ADSR mode or AHR mode. DECAY is set to the same value as RELEASE."
