Arturia MiniBrute 2-First bass sound and unpacking

Published on Jul 16, 2018 Dziam Bass

"Just the new week began with a new delivery from ARTURIA, a French company of software and analog synthesizers.
The box was the newest synthesizer Arturia-MiniBrute 2.
This is a semi modular analogue synthesizer that is the successor of the MiniBrute, offering more Brute power than ever before. MiniBrute 2 produces a huge analog sound, equipped with two thick oscillators, which form the core that shapes the sound. Arturia MiniBrute 2 offers a multifilter, ADSR envelope generator and Brute Factor.
The integrated step sequencer and arpeggiator make rhythmic creation easier, while the new modulation matrix opens up many possibilities.
It offers two oscillators with waveforms and shaping: Sawtooth, Ultrasaw, Square, Pulse, Triangle, Metalizer, Sine, Noise, external signal, Fine, Coarse. VCO1 also has a metalizer, pulse width and FM knobs for adjusting and composing sound and a lot more great features but its great advantage is the 48 Point Patchbay which gives you the opportunity to connect to the world of modular and patching the sound in itself.
Arturia offered great opportunities, again giving a great synth with the possibility of getting to know the semi-modular world."

Isotonik Studios Factorsynth – Machine Learning Tool for Live

JJ Burred - FactorSynth - Demo from Isotonik Studios on Vimeo.

via Isotonik Studios

"Factorsynth is a new kind of musical tool. It uses machine learning techniques to decompose any input sound into a set of temporal and spectral elements. By rearranging and modifying these elements you can do powerful transformations to your clips, such as removing notes or motifs, creating new ones, randomizing melodies or timbres, changing rhythmic patterns, remixing loops in real time, creating complex sound textures...

Unlike traditional audio effect devices, which take the track’s audio input and generate output in real time, Factorsynth is a clip-based device. It works on audio clips from your Live set that you have selected and loaded into Factorsynth. Once an audio clip has been selected and loaded into Factorsynth, it can then be decomposed into elements. The decomposition process is called factorization, because it is based on a technique called matrix factorization."
