"Dave Smith Instruments quick showroom tour + synth demos of DSI Prophet 12, OB-6 and Prophet 6 synthesizers.

While on a tour of Dave Smith Instruments in San Francisco, California I had the chance to try out the DSI Prophet 12, OB6 and Prophet 6 analog synthesizers in the DSI showroom. These Dave Smith Instruments synth demos features a variety of patches and sounds from the P12, OB 6 and P6. Note: audio is from camera microphone, not line-in."

Upcoming Event: Cables of Love - A Live Modular Party

This is in via Todd Barton.

Full details via https://www.residentadvisor.net...

"This is a 100% modular synthesizer party.
All live sets.

Cables of Love

From subtle minimal and classic Techno, House & Acid, roaring noise and gently massaging subs to laser light shows & live visual projections of sound, Cables Of Love with the Humboldthain bring together a diverse range of local, pan-European and international talent for an extravaganza of ear-pleasing and booty shaking pleasure.

2 Stagess: 1 for Techno / House / Acid Party Dancing, 1 for Experimental, lots of live acts with their various Modular and DIY Synths.

Further additions to the Line Up TBA in due time but for now, here's some of the acts and their bios can be found below:

Laser Bros (AT/CZ)
Laser Bros creates a synesthetic experience of beauty by connecting 2D-laser projections and body shaking electric sound waves generated in real time by an analog modular synthesizer. Changing the visual will modify the audible and vice versa.
Laser Bros is a collaboration of Bernhard Rasinger (a.k.a. BR Laser) and Václav Peloušek (a synthesizer inventor at Bastl Instruments).

Division 6 Dual Mini Sequencer In the Flesh

Spotted this on on Synthrotek here.

Nice to see it in the flesh. Previously we only had the render with details posted here.

You can see what appears to be two Dual Mini Sequencers merged into one larger panel at 3:12 in this video.

Ministry of Synthesis Video Game

This one spotted and sent in via Brendan. It's a video game focused on synthesis.

How cool is that?!

Wish it was on iOS though.

"A Wave Synthesis Puzzle Game made for Ludum Dare 39

I recommend the post-compo version as it allows you to adjust the volume.

Connect components to match the waveform to the gate to open it. Use your oscilloscope to view the power waves and see how they differ from how they should look, you’ll need to reroute power through the correct modules in order to open the protected gates and continue.

Mac version is in the works and possibly a web port, although some of the audio techniques used might make it difficult.

DigiLog "Enterprise" Portable Touchkey Synthesizer (BETA)

DigiLog
Published on Aug 7, 2017

No details are up yet, aside from "Enterprise *UNDER DEVELOPMENT*" on the DigiLog site, however, you can see the the following parameters on the front panel:

Oscillator Tune
Oscillator Waveshape - Triangle, Saw, Square with Pulsewidth
Filter Cutoff
Detune & Sync which implies two oscillators - it's not clear if you have control over the second oscillator's settings.
Arp
EG
Time and Mix - I'm guessing a built in delay

SYNTHI-JS - Free Online EMS SYNTHI

This is pretty cool.

You can play with it here. Try loading some of the different patches. I noticed I had to turn up the volume a bit to hear the first two patches. Be careful of course. I'm not sure if any of the patches get considerably louder.

You can find the source code on github here.

Details captured for the archives:

"SYNTHI-JS is an emulator of the legendary EMS Synthi A modular synthesizer, built in JavaScript on top of the Flocking library.

Features

Devices
3 oscillators
noise generator
low-pass filter
ring modulator
analog-style reverberator
self-triggering envelope generator
16x16 control patchboard
Bidirectional joystick controller
Scope module displaying "voltage" over time
100 patch memory banks with import/export functionality and (new in v1.1!) 5 built-in presets
(new in v1.2!) File upload functionality for input sources via S3
(new in v1.2!) Customizable knob behavior
(new in v1.3!) Emulation of the EMS DK2 keyboard
Getting Started

First, open up SYNTHI-JS and take a look around.

SYNTHI-JS can look daunting at first, but creating patches with it is actually quite straightforward. The patchboard functions as a routing mechanism: device outputs on the left side of the patchboard get routed to device inputs on the top side of the patchboard.

Let's make our first patch! Click on the button at B1 at the patchboard to connect the sine-wave output of Oscillator 1 to Output Channel 1. You should hear a 440 Hz sine wave coming out of your left speaker – congratulations!

Custom Orange Roland RS-505 SN 841454

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

via this auction

"Roland RS-505 that is in perfect technical condition (see pics). A few weeks ago the RS-505 was completely checked by an experienced technician.

Looking at the pics you undoubtedly notice that this RS-505 has got a custom paint job that was done by a previous owner. Some might say that the choice of the used colours is kind of "crazy" others might find it a "piece of art". The print job itself is certainly not perfect (means collector´s item) but really well done."
