'Found sound' & iOS/iPad Music (Nave, Samplr, iPulsaret) album available on Bandcamp
Published on Sep 11, 2018 DreamsOfWires
"Now available, EP-price, 7-track album of music created entirely on an iPad with iOS apps (Nave, Samplr, and iPulsaret) using found sounds - the sound of mostly non-musical objects and noises, recorded/sampled with an audio recorder, and re-synthesized chopped up to create melodic instruments, drones and soundscapes.
Most of these tracks were featured in past YouTube videos, apart from the last two. As with my other Bandcamp releases, I'm making these available to help fund the continuation and development of my music. Later this year I hope to complete the first all-analog 'tomorrow the cure' album, which will mostly consist of past compositions, but re-recorded, sometimes re-arranged, and in a refined state more befitting a dedicated album"
"Alpha Forever is a node based modular sound design tool which allows you to create custom instruments and effects in uncompromised quality. No matter if it is just an echo or a polyphonic synth, the usage is convenient and as quick as possible.
All sounds in this video were generated and processed with 42 Alpha Forever instances in real time.
Release date: October 2018"
Uncompromised sound quality
We strive for flawless sound quality. With Alpha Forever you'll get everything you need to design sound from crystal clean sounding filters to aliasing free oscillators as quickly as possible.
Flexible user interface
Scale the window, zoom into the interface, use keyboard shortcuts. It's easy to get used to these features.
It's an instrument, too
Modular audio software often require you to be an expert in other areas like UX design or programming. Alpha Forever is designed primarly for sound design purposes, you won't have to waste time on something you don't like to do, you can play and control your patches during creation.
A true polyphonic modular
Who said a modular system has to be monophonic? Turning your patch into a polyphonic instrument is as much as a click in the menu.
System requirements
- Windows operating system
- VST2.4 compatible host application
- 64bit VST host
- Mousewheel is recommended
- DirectX compatible graphics processor is recommended
"An updated walk through of my synthesizer collection, production space and studio.
I have a broad collection of both vintage and modern synthesizers, drum machines, samplers, effects and more. There's everything from high-end instruments to small battery powered portables.
Including:
- Moog
- Roland
- Korg
- Yamaha
- Teenage Engineering
- Elektron
- Novation
- etc.
In a nutshell? It's whatever you want it to be, in 14 HP.
If you're feeling verbose, call DU-INO a compact programmable digital-analog function platform. With 14 total configurable I/O, using precision ADC and DAC circuits and an analog computer, a vast array of functions are possible. A graphical OLED display and various tactile inputs offer a rich user interface.
It’s essentially the ultimate Eurorack Arduino shield. Supplying your own Arduino (or other shield-compatible microcontroller board), you can select from our growing library of functions, or use our full-featured open source Arduino library to write your own!
Just a few of the myriad A to Z functions to which the DU-INO hardware and software lends itself include arpeggiators, 8-bit oscillators, clock sources and modulators, delays, envelope generators, function generators, glitch effects, harmonic generators, inverters, jack routers, key shifters, LFOs, MIDI interfaces, noise sources, oscilloscopes, parameter storage, quantizers, randomizers, sequencers, transports, utilities of all sorts, VCAs, waveshapers... well, I made it to W!
And, did I mention that they can talk to each other (and other expansion modules) over I2C?"
Just an FYI, I added a new search box under posts to make it easier to search for more on the site. Often you will find something you might want to search on for additional posts, but you might not want to, or even think of, going back up to the top right of the site. This should make it easier. The new search box will also act as a clear delineator between individual posts. Sometimes shorter posts without images can be easily missed. The search box should help you realize there is a new post there. Note, the search box on the top right of the site will remain as well.
Give it a try below. Search for Knobcon, a particular synth or brand, or topic. You can also use the site labels below posts to bring up everything for the given label. Note search results now come up in the order posted - latest post on top. This can be particularly useful in researching what synths have recently been listed for. Search on the "synth name auction" minus the quotes, and all auction posts for that synth will come up in the order posted. You can then click on the auction links to see what they were listed for (disclaimer: they are affiliate links - if you purchase something it helps support the site). If you are looking for a more popular or relevant post, for example press releases or big news items, use the "sort by relevance" link on top of the results. Also try different combinations of words to drill down.
Sine wave from Z3000 oscillator running through Z2040 low pass filter / vca, both modulated by Z4000 voltage controlled ADSR envelope. Doepfer A-143-9 sine wave LFO modulates the deviater control on the envelope. Ginkosynthese TTLFO modulates the amount of modulation applied to the filter frequency.
A bit of delay from the Z-DSP added from time to time as well as some frequency modulation applied from a second Z3000 (sine)"
"Vintage Yamaha synthesizer in good working order. Everything works as it should with all knobs present. Legs screw on and off as they should. Power cord is in good working order with no frays or tears. I plugged headphones into the jack to test it and it sounds great with a clean sound with no static. It was very fun to play! This is an awesome vintage piece of equipment with some scratches from use which does not interfere at all with any workings of this unit."
