#Jamuary Day 15 - Synthwave on Volca Keys synced to Ds-10

Published on Jan 15, 2019 ChrisLody

"Day 15 of Jamuary

Depressing news in Britain today, and with that in mind here's a bit of a 80's post apocalyptic movie soundtrack kind of thing, synthwave if you will, on a Korg Volca Keys synced up to Korg Ds-10 on the Nintendo Ds-10 with my own little green tin box mixer. It's not a happy post apocalypse, by the sounds of it I think the robots are winning."

Korg Minilogue XD Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer With Digital Multi-Engine & Effects

Published on Jan 15, 2019 Perfect Circuit

"Korg has a new version of the Minilogue, the Minilogue XD. It has all of the great sounding analog features of the original Minilogue with the addition of the Digital Multi-Engine first introduced in the Prologue. The Digital Multi-Engine allows you to use multiple different types of digital oscillators and sound generators and mix them with the two analog oscillators. The Minilogue XD has a 12db/octave filter with drive as well as an updated polyphonic sequencer. Another upgrade from the original Minilogue is the addition of digital effects which include modulation, delay and reverb.

Perfect Circuit: Korg Volca Modular: Battery Powered Semi-Modular Analog Synthesizer

Published on Jan 15, 2019 Perfect Circuit

"Korg has a new Volca out, the Volca Modular which is the same size as the other Volcas and can sync with them, but is a semi-modular analog synthesizer. The inspiration for the synthesis is West Coast and includes a complex oscillator, two function generators and two low pass gates as well as a random "woggle" generator. The sequencer has some new playback modes for less repetition and there is a built in reverb as well. The synth makes sound un-patched, but you can re-route the signals and process them to get other interesting sounds.

Workshop with Wowa Cwejman @SchneidersLaden

Published on Jan 15, 2019

"At the beginning of July 2018 SchneidersLaden had the opportunity to welcome Wowa Cwejman again. The occasion was the presentation of four new modules. Wowa Cwejman was so kind to give us an overview of these modules in the large showroom of SchneidersLaden, together with Tom Körting they went through all new aspects of the modules and patched some sound examples. With the displayed oscilloscope you get a good sense of what is happening with the signals. All in all a lot of new possibilities to explore!
