New SDS Digital RIT_M Rhythm Sequencer Module - Sim Demo 1

Published on Jul 7, 2017 freshnelly

"Here's the first demo (simulated as "real RIT_M is pretty ugly!) to show a basic rhythm being created, then edited with new CV levels at some beats.
The mere movement of the knob sets the RIT_M to edit existing beats until a time out of 1 loop plus a bit occurs from last knob movement, or tap on the Rhythm pad.
Beats can be added/removed (not shown) simply by either *not* moving the knob first or waiting for a timeout if was moved. Simple!"

Audiomodern | Atom

Published on Jul 6, 2017 Audiomodern Ltd

"Introducing ATOM, a unique new virtual instrument for Kontakt with a powerful custom engine fully equipped to spark your creativity.

The machine is built around a beatifully diverse collection of intricate textures and organic elements, that were created from a huge collection of field recordings, custom made acoustic instruments including a tuned anker, propellers, the famous Koka’s experimental Box even a WWII Torpedo and analogue machine noises, which were then painstakingly recorded, edited using the most advanced sound design techniques and finally assembled into a stunning collection of abstract cinematic & experimental organic elements. with over 180 patches & presets to be mixed and matched as desired.

A unique sound design tool to create a huge range of distinctive cinematic sounds, otherworldly atmospheres, mesmeric drones, emorive synths, noisey pads, organic keys, impressive cinematic fx, transitional elements, Impacts and and Melodic Motifs each with its own character and concept behind the creation handcrafted with passion, innovation and technology. This virtual instrument plugin comes with 3.000+ samples, a highly versatile collection of on board effects, an incredibly intuitive multi-layer engine with separate effects and arpeggiator engine for each layer to provide hundreds of sonic combinations.

Atom has two layers of sound sources. The same 180+ sources are available on both layers and you can mix and match as you need to. Atom features a custom convolution reverb impulse engine, full synthesiser LFO’s, filters, envelopes and a powerful dual arpeggiator engine for those looking to take their sound further than the preset patches.

Atom is preloaded with over 180 exquisitely crafted presets divided into five main categories ATMO, KEYS, FX, PERCUSSIVE & SYNTHETIC. Each sound can be shaped into lush evolving pads, dense uplifting chords, strange acoustic tones, deep Textures, ambient soundscapes, layered ambiences, Imacts, transitional cinematic FX and elements for adding drama and movement into your compositions with all advanced features that allow unlimited flexibility over morphing, manipulating and processing.

FEATURES

• 180+ soundsources categorised into five categories encompassing a wide variety of sounds
• 7.2 Total Gb of sounds (Compressed to 6.73 Gb using .NCW Lossless format)
• Full keyboard range of sample playback
• Multi-Layer Engine
• Individual Effects for each Layer
• Individual Arpeggiator for each Layer
• Random Sequence Generator
• Optimized Functionality
• Custom convolution reverb impulse engine
• 24Bit/48Khz resolution for all source samples
• Multi-Genre versatility

Novation Circuit Mono Station Review

Published on Jul 7, 2017 sonicstate

"We're looking at the Novation Circuit Mono Station - its a 2 oscillator analogue paraphonic synth combined with the sequencing power of the Circuit."

Percussa Considers Entering Eurorack with Super Wavetable Oscillator/Sampler & Controller

via Bert of Percussa:

"I'm considering creating a super wavetable oscillator / sampler eurorack module, and would like to see if anyone's interested in having one.

The module comes with a seperate 'controller' module which connects to it via a flatcable (no power necessary for the control module). The main module is called the SWO (super wavetable oscillator) while the "controller" module the SWO-R (super wavetable oscillator remote).

The main SWO module will be based on the quad-core ARM cortex A17 platform I've designed for the Percussa ENGINE synth (see http://www.percussa.com).

This processing platform is one of the fastest ARM platforms available for synthesis. With its 4 cores running at 1.8GHz, it achieves about 28,800 DMIPS of processing power. Common processors in Eurorack modules are the single core Cortex M4 and M7 processors, which at their highest clock frequencies of around 200MHz stay below 500 DMIPS. Less common processors in eurorack modules are the single core Cortex A8 at 1GHz, which offers around 2,000 DMIPS of processing power.

Because of the processing power it offers, this "super oscillator" will actually support running around 64 wavetable oscillators in parallel, and with sample rates up to 192kHz with 32 bit resolution. All processing is done using 32-bit floating point precision with 64-bit precision where necessary.

Pittsburgh Lifeforms Double Helix Oscillator Demo

Published on Jul 7, 2017 Perfect Circuit Audio

"These 3 patches are a sampling of the Pittsburgh Lifeforms Double Helix Oscillator's broad sound palette. The Double Helix is a dual complex oscillator with features beyond the typical Buchla-style Eurorack VCO. In addition to typical FM and wavefolding capabilities, it adds a voltage controlled CV routing section, a dedicated LFO, and a contour section for low pass gate effects.

In the first patch in this video the Double Helix is used as a complete synth voice with the Frap Tools Sapel's n+1 output used as a quantized pitch source. The second is a drone demonstrating various modulation routings with the switches on the VCR or voltage controlled routing section, which yield a broad range of timbres with simple controls. In the third patch the oscillator is used for more “west coast” style synthesis, creating peculiar sounds / effects utilizing both oscillators, the LFO, and pseudo-lowpass gate.

The Pittsburgh Lifeforms Double Helix Oscillator is a complex dual oscillator for both sound generation and modulation. The Primary Oscillator contains all of the classic waveshapes, with a waveshaper internally normalized to the output of the sine wave. A secondary oscillator provides square, sine and sawtooth waveshapes. Also included is a Contour control, utilizing a Low Pass Gate, able to be "struck" with a gate, or controlled via CV. At the bottom of the Double Helix is a set of voltage controlled Routers, used to send various CV to various destinations. With the Double Helix, a broad range of timbres is quickly accessible.
