EMU Xboard hack:

Hacking an EMU Xboard MIDI controller for DIY

Published on Nov 12, 2019 R.O.T. Studios

"The EMU Xboard MIDI controller is GREAT to build DIY synths with, since it uses an Atmega48 as the front panel controller. The pinouts are also easy peasy and offer enough flexibility. On top of that you get a semi-weighted keyboard with velocity and aftertouch! Lotsa bang for your DIY buck :)

"The SKQ-01 is a more extreme take on FM synthesis, offering 9 different waveforms as well as PWM (Pulse-Width-Modulation) and allows you to create anything from trippy FM pads to the most noisy and loud bass lines.

Besides the FM synthesis mode the synth can also be switched to a normal synthesis mode so that the two oscillators can be layered, for a nice full sound which lends itself for things such as massive pads.

There are two oscillators/operators giving 16 note polyphony. Each of these has it's own waveform, detuning and ADSR envelope.
The second oscillator/operator has PWM which can be used both in FM as normal synthesis modes.
The synth also features an analog emulation of a low-pass VCF with plenty of resonance available, which can be controlled with a separate AR envelope as well as an LFO.

For further shaping of the sound there is a distortion, stereo chorus and reverb effect build in. For extra dynamics in your playing Portamento and Pitch Bend can be used.

Patches can be saved and loaded from within the plugin."

ASM Hydrasynth Digital Wave Morphing Synthesizer sound demo

Published on Dec 24, 2019 Gear4music

"The three-headed beast. The ASM Hydrasynth takes after its namesake, employing three oscillators and a powerful sound engine - the perfect choice for sound designers.

The Hydrasynth is jam-packed with features including a 49-note polyphonic keybed with velocity and aftertouch for exceptional expressiveness. The ergonomic design makes designing sounds a breeze, with new and exciting ways to sculpt your tones. The onboard "Mutators" provide new and tested ways to modulate sound. The synth also features 5 low-frequency oscillators and 5 DAHDSR envelopes for unparalleled power and flexibility.

Two filters are included, as well as premium-grade effects (post and pre) to give you full reign over your sound. It also features 256 factory patches created by some of the best patch designers in the world.

The Hydrasynth is suitable for both the studio and the stage with its compact and portable design."

Brüel & Kjaer multiplexer from ESA makes test equipment music

Published on Jan 2, 2020 HAINBACH

"In which I show the musical application of the Brüel & Kjaer 2811 Multiplexer that was used by a European Space Agency lab before.

I have been using switches in my music for a long time - the Doepfer A-151 is one of my favorite Eurorack modular synthesizer modules. In test equipment, oscilloscope switches helped in automating note or rhythm sequences. When I discovered the 2811 on my visit to @LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER I was impressed by the musical possibilities. Luckily, eBay came through and I got a unit that was in use at the ESTEC space research centre in the Netherlands before.

The multiplexer enables eight step sequencing of audio signals, which is a game changer for test equipment music. Its fun and playable and would probably be even nice to have in VST form.
