"Brainworx brings acclaimed analog synth module back to the future with breathtaking bx_oberhausen VI debut


“The Brainworx bx_oberhausen is a fantastic synth! Being an owner myself of a few of the originals, I can clearly tell how good this sounds! Besides the original concept, it also comes with really great effects to make the most brutal or subtle patches you can imagine! A must-have for synth enthusiasts!”
- Tom Holkenborg (a.k.a. Junkie XL), GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum producer, musician, and film composer, 2019


LEVERKUSEN, GERMANY: having hosted a successful ‘synth tasting’ event earlier this year at Sphere Studios in North Hollywood, healthily attended by industry insiders and electronica luminaries like BT, Paul Haslinger (ex- Tangerine Dream), and Tom Holkenborg (a.k.a. Junkie XL), Brainworx Audio is proud to announce availability of bx_oberhausen — the cutting-edge company’s highly-anticipated first VI (Virtual Instrument) after more than 10 years of creatively crafting top-tier mixing and mastering plugins, applying the same modelling know- how and technology to bring back an acclaimed analog synthesizer expander module in a future-facing, feature-packed form fit for today’s Digital Audio Workstation world — as of April 9…

Oscilloscope Music - Pictures from Sound

This one is in via Soviet Space Child. See the oscilloscope label at the bottom of this post for more. BTW, you can purchase the album that makes these images. Link below.

"An oscilloscope can be made to display shapes by playing sounds into it. Making music from these sounds while simultaneously drawing images with those sounds takes things to another level. CLICK SHOW MORE
In the video I fix up and put an old oscilloscope to a new use, and show how you can watch these audio-visual demos even if you don't have a oscilloscope by using a computer.

If you want to skip the preamble and repair section and jump straight to the demo - it starts at 05:00

Dove Audio WTF (Window Transform Function) Eurorack Oscillator

Published on Apr 9, 2019

"WTF stands for Window Transform Function and that is the type of synthesis used by the Dove Audio WTF oscillator. This type of synthesis works by running two wavetables in parallel as well as a window function. When the window is open one wavetable is heard and when the window is closed the other wavetable is heard. The wavetable function runs in sync with the two wavetables and can be run in single or double window mode. There are many wavetables and lots of CV controls on the WTF oscillator giving you lots of different timbral options.

Video in the listing previously posted here.

"Rare and discontinued - 1 of 53 made:

THIS is not your typical synthesizer.

The Ekdahl Polygamist is mainly designed with experimental / drone / noise / improv in mind but can really take you wherever you wana go. The basic architecture is classic VCO/VCF/VCA design but all of the building blocks have been designed to allow for much more interesting / chaotic sounds then you get from your bread-and-butter synth.

Highlights includes VCO1 which features a "Tilt" output which is a triangle wave that can be *tilted* from sawtooth, to triangle, to ramp. VCO2, the "Pitch multiplying oscillator" consists of a fundamental and three "sub harmonics" that mimics additative/FM synthesis for very complex waveform and chaos generation. The ADSR is loopable and can be used as an oscillator, it can also be paused in its transition. The three LFOs all go to audio range and two of them go down to about 4 minutes for one waveform period. It also features a duophonic, pressure sensitive ribbon controller which sends MIDI data. It has two independent MIDI/USB-to-CV converters which can be ganged in duophonic mode. And there is of course, much, much more."

Published on Nov 15, 2018 Jay Frederick

"★ UNDERBRUSH ★Ciat-Lonbarde Plumbutter v2 & Cocoquantus ★ Strymon Big Sky & Timeline ★

★ Combining the Ciat-Lonbarde Cocoquantus and the Plumbutter V2. Starting out with vinyl noise as a bed from the “lo fi” mode of Strymon Timeline then adding Plumbutter v2 triggering the Eventide Pitchfactor. Later I bring in live sampling of the kalimba thru the Coco's dual 8-bit loopers. Thanks for listening.★

Recorded in Protools 2018.10 on Windows 10."

"The awesome and inspiring "plumbutter 2" works perfectly. An entire album could be made using this one synth.

Ciat-Lonbarde Cocoquantus 2

via this auction

"This unit is in great condition. I do want to warn any potential buyers, this device is weird and will take a lot of playing around and trial and error to understand how to use it and see what it can do.

I have found that you can use it's synth capabilities to tap into bizarre digital cityscapes or you use its delays with microphone and instrument inputs or even use it as a effects processor to add vibrato and some cool distortion to guitar or keyboard, like in the sample I provided.

I can't really offer any guidance on how to use this other than plugging in and trying new things. There's guides online that people have made to figure out where you even begin. Search for a Cocoquantus guide and look for a link to a forum called muffwiggler, that is a great starting point.

This also requires banana plugs and cables to operate. I'll include 5 homemade stack-able cables I made for the synth. I also do not have a power supply, it did not come with one. I have been using 9 volt batteries but if you don't want to do that it takes a 12 volt DC power supply. This is from their sight.

Ciat-Lonbarde instruments take a 12 volt DC power supply (@ 300ma or greater) with a tip positive, 2.1mm plug. Search for "2.1mm 12v dc supply." Until you procure one, use a nine volt battery to power the instrument."

Roland JD-800 Synthesizer SN ZC43423

"The Roland JD-800's front panel is like the dashboard of a 747 Jet! Look at all those sliders, just begging to be tweaked! This synthesizer is still the pride and joy of many studios and Film composers, due to the depth of programming possible to each of the 4 layer tones per patch...You've got a slew of waves to choose from, Dual LFO's with multiple wave shapes, offsets, fade-in, delay, etc., Multi-mode filters, (Band-pass, Low-pass, High-pass) 7(!!) stage envelopes each for Pitch/Filter/Amplitude. In Multi-timbre mode, go ahead and times all that by 6! Sounds from this bad-boy are Fat, rich, complex and evolving. Add to this, that the built-in waves and patches are expandable, via PCM and DATA cards and you really are only limited by your imagination! Please, check out the online reviews and videos, to get a better idea of the nitty-gritty specs and what you could do with this monster synth.

This synthesizer has been reset to factory defaults. Everything; all switches, sliders, pitch/mod lever, after-touch, velocity, outputs, Midi IN/OUT/THRU, Card expansion slots and power supply performs exactly as they should. The display contrast and brightness are perfect. All key-bed issues; red glue, weights, springs, contact strips and ribbon cable connection, have been fixed to where there should be no issues for years to come."
