Artiphon INSTRUMENT 1 Feature Update – February 2018 – String Muting & Volume Knob Mapping

Published on Feb 16, 2018 Artiphon

"What’s New:
You strummed, we listened. The INSTRUMENT 1 just got a major playability update for muting strings. Now simply strum a chord, and when you lift off the fingerboard the strings will automatically mute. Easier than pie.

Bonus: Strummed notes will ring out for as long as you can hold them with new infinite sustain. Can you hear it?

The volume knob also learned a new trick – it now sends data to your DAW (via CC#9) so you can map your favorite effects, dynamics, and more when using an external sound card or line-out from your iPad. Awesomely optional.

Fixed:
Previously, the bridge on Tap Fretted Strings mode was strummable. Now, it’s tappable. That just makes sense.

Bow method also gained velocity sensitivity, for the orchestrally-inclined. Perfect for Hans Zimmer covers – or John Williams, if you prefer.

How to Get It:
Simply open the Artiphon iOS app or Desktop Editor and follow the prompts to update your firmware."

One day, earth will turn green again...

KAWAI K4 | The Most Fascinating Soundscapes | HD DEMO

Demo of the KAWAI K4 digital synthesizer from 1989 - The Most Fascinating Soundscapes.

All sounds come from a single Kawai K4 played live without additional effects - right from the stereo outputs of the K4. I played sounds programmed by me and some factory sounds.

The Kawai K4 has some excellent pad sounds to offer. Its resonant digital filter sounds very good! The drum section is also very good - you can create unique drum sounds from 2 waveforms per drum voice, which are each variable in waveform, pitch, decay and volume."
