New Qu-Bit Chord v2

Polyphony is back!

Chord v2 is a plug and play solution for bringing musical polyphony to your system. It contains four oscillator voices, a multitude of waveforms, and intelligent tuning functionality. This new version features an expanded sonic palette and feature set in half the size of the original.

It features three primary modes of operation: Chord, Free Running, and Unison. These three modes allow the oscillators to be tuned as diatonic chords, run independently of each other, or be tuned to the same internal frequency for external v/oct sequencing through independent CV inputs.

The timbral possibilities of the Chord v2 bring its polyphonic tones to life. The module ships with eight banks of waveforms encompassing traditional shapes, vocal synthesis, organ emulation, and chiptune sounds. You can also load custom wavetables using the SD card slot on the front panel.

From harmonic drones to Switched On Bach, the Chord v2 is an unparalleled addition to any Eurorack modular.

• Polyphonic oscillator
• Intelligent tuning system
• Independent output per voice + mix output(5 in total)
• Eight banks of waveforms
• SD card included
• Wavetables compatible with WaveEdit software by Synthesis Technology"

"Quasimidi Rave-O-Lution 309 with both Synth and Drum Expansions fitted AND upgraded OS 3.0a (Most stable version) chip installed.

Excellent cosmetic condition. Looks near new.

Fantastic synth/ groovebox. Completely excellent sounds, some of the best kicks you could have, brilliant hats, great percussion and snares, and a really nice synth section.

Very hands-on and intuitive machine. Very fresh sounding machine with a huge range of tones and timbres.

Small chip out of the plastic surrounding the psu input, no affect to anything. Original Quasimidi PSU fits snugly and works perfectly. Optional I/O expansion not fitted.

LCD screen is as bright as new. All buttons / pots etc working smoothly."

Moog One 16 voice - tuning problems

Published on May 1, 2019 Monty

"About 30 minutes after power up, my Moog One VCO2 and VCO3 completely lose their tuning. Not just a frequency offset, but great variation up the scale and across voices.

The video shows a comparison between VCO3 then VCO2 then VCO1. Finally they are played at once.

I contacted Moog Support about this 3 days ago. No answer yet, but let's see what they have to say..."

Moog One 16 voice - tuning problems (as good as my unit gets)

Published on May 1, 2019 Monty

"This video demonstrates Moog One tuning variation over time, voices, and position on keyboard.
This is as GOOD AS IT GETS with my unit - noticeable fractions of a semitone in error. See my other video to see what can happen when tuning goes completely wrong:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lnor...

Details for those who care:
- The unit was powered up about 10 minutes before the recording start. Long after the video completed, the tuning variation persisted. This isn't just a "wait until it warms up" problem.
- Firmware is v1.0.4. A fresh "user space" was created as per Moog Support instructions
- The sound is just the init preset (press shift+compare) with OSC2 and OSC3 added in parallel. You are hearing all three oscillators playing in unison"

Moog One tuning issues: Update - RESOLVED??

Published on May 4, 2019 Monty

"This video demonstrates my discovery that the Moog One can be put permamently out of tune (until reboot) by loading patches with seemingly invalid OSC frequency offset parameters. These parameters cannot be dialled in from the UI, but can occur if users make patches based on original factory ones. I think Moog know about this (hence their recommended "create a new User Space" fix to tuning issues) but I have never seen it explained before.
For me, this issue has interacted with more subtle tuning problems which appear to have been solved in a beta firmware release Moog Support have issued me (an update beyond the current 1.0.4)
I apologise for the poor picture and sound quality - this is just a quick smartphone video."

Hello Hydronium: analog acid synth

Published on May 1, 2019 Olivier Ozoux

"Happy New Gear! I finished assembling the Rare Waves HYDRONIUM, a fun little TB-303 inspired analog acid synth, available as a desktop or eurorack unit, in yellow, blue or black.

This is a quick little video of the hydronium by itself, but I'm looking forward to using the glide CV out to turn all my other semi-modular synths into acid synths."
