New eurorack module:

"We all love Eurorack for all the infinite possibilities it presents to create new sound machines. However, when you aspire for more voices and more timbres within Eurorack, that usually requires a significant amount of space and budget outlay. That leaves you no viable options, other than to leave your Eurorack and attempt to connect with outboard gear that does not easily integrate. Now – with Dino Park – you gain access to a world of infinite sonic possibilities, while staying within your Eurorack!

Dino Park is not fixed synthesis architecture – it is as flexible as your Eurorack. It can load different “synth models” which feature radically different forms of synthesis – including vintage subtractive, additive, wavetable and FM – providing infinitely expandable and exciting sonic capabilities in every Eurorack.

Now increasing the sonic potential of your Eurorack has never been easier, or more affordable! . For newbies, Dino Park offers an easy, cost effective and gratifying way to start off their rack journey with a big sound foundation. For Eurorack veterans, Dino Park can close a lot of gaps and enrich any Eurorack performance. True “ best of” utility in big analog sound with the recall-reliability of digital.

We offer three Dino Park kits for the Eurorack"

New Module from Tiptop Audio ECHOZ

"ECHOZ is a compact, great sounding 8HP Tape and Digital delay module with inherit sound quality and close affiliation to Tiptop’s dsp synthesis lab, the Z-DSP. The ECHOZ buttons let you select how you want to process the incoming sound, as a pure digital repeat, a saturated internally modulated and filtered tape head, diffused trails, mono or stereo bounce. An all analog mix sets the balance of incoming signal vs the processed signal and with the Fidelity knob you can sweep away all the above and go bizarre. ECHOZ panel is clear and simple to operate, small and powerful waiting to deliver quality sounding effects to your set up whenever you need it."

Tiptop Audio Refaces Their 808/909, Go Color Babe

"We are reissuing the entire line of our 808 and 909 analog drum modules with Tiptops new aesthetic to match the rest of the Tiptop system look. At their heart they are the same exact clones of the BD808 and TR909 analog circuits adapted to the inside levels of modular. With this reface we have omitted our colored nuts so users with the previous version, looking to update to the new look, can enjoy these as well. These new modules will be available through our dealers starting mid May. Conversion kit panels are available directly from Tiptop Audio at $10 per panel."

Tiptop Audio Demos a New Tape Echo for the Z-DSP

"The family of high level effects available for the Z-DSP keeps growing. This time we have something special that takes the Z-DSPs organic sound to new depths. The Tape Echo card uses techniques to give bending effects inherent to tape when the time control moves. In addition the combination of the Filter and Tape style compression and distortion gives the sound a similar feel and operation to vintage devices only without the need to replace the tape! The results are lush time domain trails in a variety of combinations and control in eight different programs on the card."

Modular Shuttle Workstation

Published on May 10, 2019 TheEndorphines

"Introducing: two-row-system "Modular Shuttle Workstation“.
It contains a Shuttle System in the upper row and a Blck_Noir and a Ground Control module in the bottom row.
The 12 hp space left in the lower row is reserved for some secret modules that will be available in autumn when the Modular Shuttle Workstation will be ready to ship.
For Shuttle owners it is of course possible to expand an existing System by mounting the new sides and adding a second row.
The design of the new Shuttle Sides allow the two rows of modules to be closed with two transparent Shuttle Covers."

UDO Programmable Analog Synthesizer XL is the Hearn Morley XL8?

Follow-up to this post.

Left: new image of the Programmable Analog Synthesizer XL8 via M Me.

Below: Hearn Morley DIY synth in silver posted back in 2009.

Note the differences (buttons & knobs).

Running a quick search for Hearn Morley XL8 brought me to Hearn Morley's website with the following info plus the third image below (they also had the 2009 pic).

"Hearn Morley manufacture a range of precision analogue audio building blocks in the form of miniaturized plug-in modules for 3rd party system development. These modules include Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCO), Voltage Controlled Filters (VCF), Voltage Controlled Envelope generators (ADSR) and Voltage Controlled Amplifiers (VCA).

All Hearn Morley products are 100% tested, ROHS compliant and packed in anti-static protective packaging. We ship worldwide.

Just recently we've noticed some important analogue synth components go obsolete. These are +3300ppm/k temperature coefficient resistors (to compensate exponential converters and gm stages) and the LM3046M transistor array for which there is no real substitute. We made large purchases to keep them available to the synth DIY community."

Korg Minilogue XD Module

Published on May 10, 2019 Perfect Circuit

"The Korg Minilogue XD Module has all of the same synthesis and effects features of the minilogue XD but saves some space on your desk if you don't need the keyboard. It can also polychain with other Minilogue XDs to add extra voices of polyphony. The sequencer buttons can be used as a keyboard for the XD Module so you don't need to plug in an external keyboard to play it.
