Behringer Model D - FM sounds and more

Published on Jan 19, 2018 umusic6

"As there were some request regarding FM (Frequency Modulation) sounds on the Behringer Model D i stepped through the basics (route Osc 3 as mod source to the osc section). From there on, i tried out some more uncommon, percussive/fx stuff.

Still no new equipment, so excuse the not so perfect audio.

Enjoy!"

Announcing Bitwig Studio 2.3 w/ PHASE-4 Phase Manipulation Synthesizer

Published on Jan 19, 2018 bitwig

"Presenting Bitwig Studio 2.3, featuring Phase-4, a new phase manipulation synthesizer, time signature changes, expanded device view, and much more."

Details on the PHASE-4 Phase Manipulation Synthesizer (demos below):

"Meet Phase-4, a four-oscillator synthesizer powered by phase modulation and phase distortion. Drawing inspiration from legendary digital synths like Yamaha's DX7 and Casio’s CZ series, Phase-4 is capable of vintage sounds that we know and love, but it goes further, greatly expanding these phase manipulation concepts.
At the heart of each of the four stereo oscillators in Phase-4 is a sine wave that can be shaped by five different phase distortion algorithms. Each oscillator can also be phase-modulated, by itself and by the other three oscillators, producing a vast range of possible sounds and timbres. This combination of phase distortion and phase modulation — which we lovingly call phase manipulation — brings Phase-4 to life with all of its awesome sonic power. The oscillators can also manipulate the built-in filter section for incredibly crisp and edgy textures.
The extensive controls for frequency, phase distortion, and phase modulation allow for easy and fast access to truly complex phase manipulation technology. Fire up Phase-4 in its expanded view (more on that below) to see it in all its glory.

This beast of a synthesizer makes no compromises so beware: Phase-4 can have an appetite for CPU resources."

MiniBrute 2/2S: Here are 6 ways to play them paraphonically and polyphonically

Published on Jan 18, 2018 loopop

"One of the most frequently asked questions I got after my reviews was: can they play douphonically? The new Arturia MiniBrute 2 and 2S synths have two VCOs, however, there's no out-of-the-box capability to play paraphonically or polyphonically, other than the sequencer on the 2S.

Luckily, the extensive patch bay allows a lot of place for creative manipulations.

In this video I show not one but six different ways to play polyphonically and paraphonically on the MiniBrute 2 series, whether just using the patch bay, or for more flexibility, using external 'helpers'."
