Ambient Ballet - Mother 32 & Pads

Published on Nov 13, 2017 RemixSample

"Nothing major just some Mother 32 Freestyle over a pad patch from Omnisphere called "Across the sky". I use the internal sequencer and play a couple of notes on the M32 keyboard. https://remixsample.bandcamp.com/albu...

Used in this video:
Moog Mother 32
Omnisphere
Valhalla Shimmer Reverb
Soundtoys Crystalizer (hear it @ 03:07)
I modulate the pitch with the midi keyboard under my desk. :D"

Endorphin.es Shuttle Control MPE support with ROLI Seaboard Rise

Published on Nov 13, 2017 TheEndorphines

"With firmware update v.3.8 (R1) Shuttle Control supports Multidimensional Polyphonic Expression – or MPE.

Such amount of outputs is beneficiary to send an immense amount of controls from Roli Seaboard Rise 25, which we explain in the video (so you can see all outputs in action).
http://firmware.endorphin.es

-----------------------------------------------

The general idea behind the MPE is an updated MIDI protocol in which every voice has its own MIDI channel with the multi-dimensional controls.

There is a lot of control from various kinaesthetic actions which we daisy chained to two Shuttle Controls to increase the overall amount of CV outputs up to 32. Every column of 8 jacks logically correspond to each voice, and modules correspond to the same voices in an allocation grid: first one, second, third and fourth. So far, each Shuttle handles two voices.

Every pressed key on Seaboard is a voice that generates the following MIDI data:
- Note translated into 1 volt per octave Pitch CV on the separate MIDI channel.
- Horizontal movement of the finger on the key or wave surface defines a pitch bender: X-axis control
- Z-axis (or depth) corresponds to channel aftertouch - how much finger pressure is applied to the key.
- Third dimensional Y–axis is vertical position of the finger on each key. By default it is assigned on CC number 74 and is called “timbre”.
- Note on/off and velocity as on a usual MIDI keyboard

Every one of the actions takes is 4 times, since we have four voices.

1979 MULTIVOX MX-880 Duo

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

via this auction

"This synth is like a deluxe Roland SH-2000 preset, mono synth.

Works great.

The scan of the ad is from March 1979 Contemporary Keyboard magazine. So, even though the original Roland SH-2000 is from the mid-1970's. The Multivox MX-880 was sold beginning in 1979.

The Multivox MX-880 is almost exactly the same as the Roland SH-2000. But, the extra oscillator is what makes this synth better than the SH-2000. You can choose any frequency within the range (3rd, 5th, 6th, octave or any frequency in between) or select Unison for a thicker/phased sound.

Voices: Tuba, Trombone, French Horn, Trumpet, Saxophone, Clarinet, Accordion, Bassoon, Oboe, Flute, Song Whistle, Singing Voice, Cello, Violin, Bass Guitar, Hawaiian Guitar, Banjo, Fuzz Guitar 1, Fuzz Guitar 2, Harpsichord, Piano, Xylophone, Vibraphone, Percolate (called Pop Corn on Roland SH-2000), Space Reed, Outer Space (called Planet on Roland SH-2000), Frogman, Alley Cat (called Funny Cat on Roland SH-2000), Ring Modulator (may be the same as Growl Wow on Roland SH-2000), Wind.

The MX-2000 name is covered with an MX-880 sticker on the front. This was probably due to a complaint from Roland because it looks too similar."
