Erica Synths - Superbooth16

Published on Apr 29, 2016 DivKidVideo

"It was great to meet Girts and KODEK from Erica Synths after working with them on video demos right from the beginning of me making demo videos. They've been great supporters of what I'm doing and ... I really like what they're doing too :-)"

If you pick this up, be sure to get the hot pink MicroKorg to go with it!

"from metasonix's website:

"We took our 20+ years of experience in vacuum-tube electronic music, and used it to make the most exciting instrument in the history of Metasonix. The S-2000 is not merely a new repackaging of old designs. It is a revolution, and a game changer.

The S-2000 was made to be as easy to use as possible. Just plug in power, plug in an amplifier, wait 30 seconds for the real new-old-stock vacuum tubes to warm up, and start playing it. The built-in 400mm ribbon controller is instantly responsive, and needs no special treatment. No trimpots, no fiddling with MIDI interfaces or fighting with fistfuls of cables. The misery has been engineered out.

The simplicity might fool you. The S-2000 has enough controls and enough flexibility to keep the musician busy for years of sonic exploration. It contains:

two all-tube oscillator/filter “operators”, with resonance variable from flat response to deep oscillation. Waveshape is variable from clean sine wave to a distinctive distorted square/pulse wave. Resonate both for FM sound effects.
an all-tube VCA.
three contour generators:
C1 attack-release type feeds the VCA

Moog Opus 3 rebuild (by Synthpro)

Published on Apr 29, 2016 synthpro

"This is a sick little Opus 3 that came into my shop, had a articulation issue for mode 2 which I found to be a bad 4007 and suffers from two bad divider IC's.

I take you on a trip of theory of operation and what makes it different from other moog models."

Ece 362 'UPTON FUNK' next level synthesizer

Published on Apr 29, 2016 Nick Upton

And so it begins... This is how it all starts folks. Curious if we will see any creations from him or his team mates in the future. I remember the first posts on MATRIXSYNTH featuring a once unknown Tony Rolando and numerous other makers who went on to form their own companies. Many have become super successful in the synth world. There's some amazing history captured here and this is why I post things like this. You never know...

OK, this video is obviously a music promo video and I have a strict policy of no music promo posts on the site unless you actually support the site, however... That's some mighty fine synth spotting at the start of the video. See if you can ID it all.
