Waldorf Quantum - Musikmesse 2017

Published on Apr 11, 2017 Sound On Sound magazine

"8-Voice Analog/Digital Hybrid Polyphonic Synthesizer"

Update: some key points from the video captured by Soviet Space Child and a couple of feature suggestions:

1) the digital processing section can be put pre or post analog filter, this is huge for me.

2) the analog filters are lowpass only.

3) the oscillators are freely routable between the analog filters, digital processing section, or can bypass them all together and go straight to the VCA. This adds a lot of flexibility to the synth, in that a single patch effectively becomes a 3 timbre synthesizer, with each oscillator comprising of its own timbre. In theory, one oscillator can go to the analog filters, another can go to the digital processing section, a third can go straight to the amp section. This, combined with the various oscillator types, makes the Quantum an incredibly flexible synthesizer. Now, with all that taken into consideration, add the split/layering mode and you have yourself a party.

4) FM is not yet decided upon, bummer. Here's hoping for linear FM between the oscillators.

5) You can analyze audio files and convert them into wavetables (!!!)

5) 40(!!!) modulation slots.

Suggestions:

1) Addition of linear FM
2) Internal resampling for the wavetable and granular/sample oscillators would be great.

"Mother 32 synthesiser through the Memory Boy analog delay. The Memory Boy has been placed on an aux send.

No further processing except normalisation."

Akira's Dream: A Eurorack Modular Journey

Published on Apr 10, 2017 Genshi Media Group

"::| BEST HEARD WITH A GOOD PAIR OF HEADPHONES |::

A live modular synth jam; a variation of the previous video, with a bit of a different feel... no external effects, overdubs or multi-tracking, just what you see on the screen performed in one live take."

Korg DSS-1 sound demo with eventide space

Published on Apr 10, 2017 MIDERA

"Just enjoyed the sound I made (I can't save any of my patches) - so I thought I'd make a video of it. This is such a strange synthesizer. Sounds amazing though, being able to create your own waveforms is very interesting (albeit - usually ends in bad sounds). This is a waveform I made using the drawing feature.

Eventide Space was used for reverb"

Strumming Pyramids: Euclidean chord patterns with the Squarp Pyramid

Published on Apr 10, 2017 Olivier Ozoux

"Exploring some of the interesting features of the new PyraOS 1.9 beta.

Now that the Euclidean Mode can accept chords, and with the new Master Transpose track, we can create rhythm guitar style strumming patterns. Add a few Midi FX for variations, and we have the Strumming Pyramids!"

Wifi MIDI for Your Modular from SDS Digital

WiFiMIDI module prototype demo1

Published on Apr 10, 2017 freshnelly

"This is the old prototype doing a note derived clock using a pair of SDS_VCO's and a Reflex in delay (Echo mode) with PlayFX reverse on "F" Note on the iPhone.
The Clock is feeding to a MI Frames module, and the MIDI output jack (WiFi + module MIDI) is feeding out of the bottom left jack.(T)
Notes and their velocities are being sent from the other 8 jacks, but only 2 are patched in here
Guess I should put together a proper WiFiMIDI, just so busy these days!"

Update:

"This is the same as [above] that was playing without my narration on mono phones (from phone speaker)"

277r Delay with CV Filtering

Published on Apr 10, 2017 djangosfire

"Exploring the 277r Buchla format digital delay.

A casual walk through and demo of the 277r using CV to control the delay rate AND a LPG to tame the crunchy tone of the 277r.

Patch:

Audio into 277r, output into 292e LPG, out to mixer.

I use a 256r dual cv processor to send CV to the 277r AND the 292e LPG.

Thank you - Djangosfire

PS - in the vid I keep saying 1/2t inputs.... in fact I meant 'outputs' :)"
