Unboxing the Model 41: a striking moment of humility & appreciation

Published on Jun 18, 2016 Peter Grenader

"Completely, utterly blown away at the response this post has received on social media (FB). For those of you who know the backstory involved, this was a very big day for me.

The same thing happened to my dad's career. At 62, when most hang up their cleats he started a second career not knowing as I didn't if this one would take. It did,and he worked at it until he was well over 93 years old. The family always knew he could it. I wasn't sure if I could however. Just found out I did and listening to it now I don't even recognize the voice in this video. I had no idea i had grown up so much. And looking back everything that happened EVERYTHING was compulsory for that to occur

Social media makes you lonely. It has enabled friendships for all of us we would never have before, but with that it has changed the definition of what a friendship is. It's no longer people as much as it is images. It's not phone calls, it's emojis. Who would have thunk that there were actual beating hearts on the other end who know when to care and do so... because you are friends.

Today, I do.

To all of you and especially to those who supported me even when it wasn't fashionable to do so - thank you."

New Eera for iPad Synth Released

Eera 1.0-beta - Presets tour

Published on May 19, 2016 Ales Tsurko

iTunes: Eera - Aliaksandr Tsurko

"Eera is a monophonic synth, designed for everyday in-studio and on-the-stage situations, when you need space effects, rich and deep basses and unusual or classical leads.

Thanks to X/Y control at the heart and the X/Y bindings, people compare expressiveness of Eera with singing.
While it has modulations for each of the key parameters, it's simple to use. In fact, for getting different timbre characteristics there is only one slider! Which in turn possible thanks to the unusual parabolic oscillator with width modulation.

And you can be sure that Eera does not prevent you to get your own, your personal sounds.
Eera was created with professional production in mind. The synth has the high quality tube amplifier on the out and supports sample rate up to 96 kHz.

Features:
- no need for external MIDI controllers – Eera is an expressive instrument out of the box;
- unusual parabolic oscillator with width modulation; 
- vintage reverb; 
- tube-saturated amplifier (with overdrive possibility);
- state-variable filter;
- chorus;
- LFO modulations as well as parameters dependence on keyboard's X/Y; 
- sample rate up to 96 kHz;
- factory presets designed for your inspiration;
- Audiobus and Inter-App Audio ready.

Eera is equally good for a wide range of musical genres: from techno, IDM and house to rock, classical, microtonal and experimental music."

Future Retro 512 touch keyboard Layering MIDI and CV synths

Published on Jun 18, 2016 FutureRetroSynths

"The 512 allows you to play MIDI and CV/Gate synthesizers simultaneously. In this video we show some of the possibilities."

DSP Synthesizers Releases 4HP CZ-VCO Module

via DSP Synthesizers

"The 4HP CZ-VCO module is a phase distorsion oscillator in a 4HP module.

It replicates the famous PD waveform and can make resonant sweeps without a filter.

Based on the CZ-1 chip (http://www.dspsynth.eu) it features a 1V/Octave pitch input with a 5 octave range and a modulation index CV input with a range of 0.125x – 16x. Both inputs have an attenuator knob doubling as a parameter dial when the CV’s are not plugged in.

It also has a simple Gate VCA input that enables it to be used as a complete synth if you don’t have any EG and VCA modules, i.e with an analog sequencer it will perform as an acid box.

Available as pre built and DIY kit modules.
