via this auction

"A beautiful and absolute rare gem, the multi effects unit designed by Tom Oberheim for Maestro/Gibson from the 1960's.

There's very little information on these on the internet but what we do know is that these come up very rarely and particularly in this condition.

Recently professionally serviced and calibrated.
Process any sound source like your drum machines, synthesizers and guitars and just start experimenting!

The built in synth / effects are:
- Waveform
- Filter & Sample/Hold
- Phaser
- Envelope
- Sub-harmonic
- sensitivity control that affects the envelope and sub-harmonic."

Korg Trident mk II Polyphonic Analogue Synth

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This is an 8-voice, polyphonic analog synthesizer, with a 5-octave, 61-note (C-C) keyboard, 28 knobs and 33 multicolored push-buttons (each button with its own LED). It features a programmable synth with 32 memory locations, a brass and a string section, and two piano presets and one clavinet preset. Each section (synth, string, and brass) has separate volume controls and can be set to play above or below middle-C or across the whole keyboard, allowing for splitting and layering."

Intellijel Rainmaker Tutorials


Published on Jun 14, 2017 intellijel

"The Intellijel/Cylonix RAINMAKER eurorack-format module provides a high-quality (96KHz sampling rate with 32-bit internal processing) stereo rhythmic delay and stereo comb resonator effect."

Playlist:

1. Intellijel/Cylonix Rainmaker - Delay Section Tutorial
"In this video we focus on the Rhythm Delay section. The stereo rhythm delay has 16 taps, each with its own resonant 2nd-order filter and granular pitch shifter. The filters have independently adjustable resonance and cutoff frequency, and can be set to either lowpass, bandpass, highpass or bypass operation. The filters are also capable of self-oscillation, enabling modal synthesis techniques. The granular pitch shifters have a range of 15 semitones up or 16 semitones down. Each tap can repeat at a rate value set in tap#’s in order to create regenerating echo effects. The feedback signal has a lowpass/highpass tone control and its own pitch shifter. The tap delay times can range from 0.1 millisecond up to a maximum of 20 seconds. The overall delay times can be set with the rotary encoder, the tap tempo button, or synced to an external clock."

2. Rainmaker - Utility Operations Tutorial
"In this video we look at the Utility Operations section made up of Routing & Config, Meters & Gain, Save/Load, and the Mod Controls."

3. Rainmaker - Comb Resonator Section
"In this video we move on to the Comb Resonator section. The stereo comb resonator section has 64 time-delayed taps which are summed together. This produces a deep comb filter or resonating effect. At large comb sizes (long time delays) a multiple echo effect is produced. The density of the resonator can be varied from 1 tap all the way up to 64 taps."

4. Modal Synthesis With Rainmaker
In this tutorial we explore how to use the Rainmaker as a Modal Synthesizer.

5. Managing Rainmaker Presets With Laser Mammoth
Rainmaker presets can be managed using a free online utility called Laser Mammoth. In this video we will learn how to use it and what it can do.

6. Rainmaker - CV Selection of Presets
By setting Trigger Mode to Preset Load, and Mod A to Preset #, Rainmaker Presets can be selected using CV and Gate signals.

7 Karplus Strong Synthesis on the Rainmaker
The Rainmaker is uniquely capable of generating tones using Karplus Strong Synthesis. In this video we learn how to accomplish this, along with some tips and techniques to try.

"The Intellijel/Cylonix RAINMAKER eurorack-format module provides a high-quality (96KHz sampling rate with 32-bit internal processing) stereo rhythmic delay and stereo comb resonator effect.

The stereo rhythm delay has 16 taps, each with its own resonant 2nd-order filter and granular pitch shifter. The filters have independently adjustable resonance and cutoff frequency, and can be set to either lowpass, bandpass, highpass or bypass operation. The filters are also capable of self-oscillation, enabling modal synthesis techniques. The granular pitch shifters have a range of 15 semitones up or 16 semitones down. Each tap can repeat at a rate value set in tap#’s in order to create regenerating echo effects. The feedback signal has a lowpass/highpass tone control and its own pitch shifter. The tap delay times can range from 0.1 millisecond up to a maximum of 20 seconds. The overall delay times can be set with the rotary encoder, the tap tempo button, or synced to an external clock.

The stereo comb resonator section has 64 time-delayed taps which are summed together. This produces a deep comb filter or resonating effect. At large comb sizes (long time delays) a multiple echo effect is produced. The density of the resonator can be varied from 2 to 64 taps. The tap with the longest delay time is fed back to the input. High feedback levels, with short comb sizes, produce “Karplus-Strong” types of plucked string sounds. The relative timing of the 64 taps are set according to one of 16 different preset patterns, which provide different resonator timbres or echo rhythms. The comb size can be set either with the rotary encoder, an external clock or through a transposable 1v/oct input voltage.

The Rainmaker module has extensive voltage control capabilities. Direct voltage control is available for the delay feedback level and tone, the global pitch shift for all delay taps, the comb resonator size, and comb feedback level. There are two assignable modulation inputs, which can be assigned to different parameters in each preset. A trigger input with assignable functionality can trigger built-in types of noise bursts, freeze the delay buffer, reverse the delay, randomize parameters, mute taps, and much more."

Randy Vogue - On The Cusp Of Collapse


Published on Jun 11, 2017 Jacques Mongrel

"Unstable electronic funk manipulations careen through a kaleidoscopic vision of the American dream."

A new piece by supporting MATRIXSYNTH Member Jacques Mongrel aka Pinwale Sounds under the Randy Vogue alias. The track features Ableton Live with Cheese Machine VST (a string machine plug in).
