"Hexen is a virtual modular eurorack synthesizer for your phone or tablet.
Simply double click any synth module to zoom in and out.
Controls and patch cables are all simply tap and drag when zoomed in.
48Khz DSP signal engine and 3D rendering engine gives you a very flexible, capable and fun instrument right in the palm of your hand.
Play and have fun shaping your own analogue soundscape and then mastering it down onto the built in stereo tape recorder.
Hexen contains many modules for you to play with and we hope you have lots of fun! We try and release one module per month to keep it fresh.
This free version allows you to play with all available modules but you can't save or load racks. You can upgrade with a one time in app purchase in order to activate saving and loading. Upgrading also removes the top banner ad."
"One of the best parts of incorporating synthesizers into your music is that they can be used in a myriad of interesting ways—including as effects processors. Take a look around at the back (or perhaps front) panel of your synthesizers, and you might see a socket labeled "Ext. In." or something similar. This means that your synth can accept audio signal from an external instrument or mic source. In the video above, Natalie shows you how to harness the effects processing potential of your synths using some classics like Moog Grandmother and MiniMoog Model D, as well as the Korg Monologue, with a Wurlitzer piano."
"In this video I take a look at using TouchOSC by Hexler to control Deluge's parameters on an iPad.
I made a simple TouchOSC layout for Deluge. This is the first one I ever made so some of the design decisions are not necessarily optimal. The fader types are a lot easier to control on an iPad than the rotary ones.
The layout is made to control all the parameters of the Deluge substractive synth. This video shows only some of the controls. I will make another one for the modulation controls and FM synth parameters later. I hope.
TouchOSC makes it really easy to control all the MIDI parameters that can be mapped by the LEARN button on Deluge. The best way is to make one synth preset and LEARN all the mappings and then use that as a starting point when creating a new synth sound. Sound design on Deluge is a lot easier with the touch interface than trying to find all the parameters on the Deluge grid.
There are some restrictions, though. TouchOSC controls won't go below zero, so Deluge parameters that have negative values like modulation source depth or sidechain volume ducking cannot be controlled. Or at least I couldn't figure it out. Also the initial values of the touch controls do not correspond the values on the Deluge. So it works like some digital synths where you need to move the fader first for the parameter to "catch-up" with the control. That's not an issue once you figure it out.
The iPad is connected to the Deluge with the Lightning to USB 3 Camera adapter. Both the Deluge and the iPad are powered by the power bank. Deluge is connected to the power bank with a Birdcord USB to 9V converter cable.
[No computers were harmed making this video. The sounds were recorded directly to the SD card in Deluge and downloaded to the iPad using Downrush. The video was recorded on an iPhone XS and airdropped to the iPad where everything was put together by LumaFusion.]"
Synthstrom Deluge and TouchOSC: FM Sound Design
Published on Mar 2, 2020 Snowdeaf
"Controlling the Synthstrom Deluge with the Hexler TouchOSC for iPad.
In this video I'm creating sounds with the FM synth of the Deluge and also take a quick look into controlling the arpeggiator and portamento parameters."
"The Pro/DGX is a thirty preset monophonic analog synth with digital controls. The 37-note keybed has aftertouch for volume, brilliance, vibrato, wow, growl, and bend effects - and even all at once if you desire! A few basic filter, envelope and LFO controls allow some tweaking of the preset sounds.
Get your classic Tony Banks sounds with this unique Arp - no other synth sounds quite like it.
This unit has been carefully gone over to ensure that it is fully functional. It has some wear for an instrument of this age, but is in overall excellent condition. Power cord included."
"Vintage Korg Polysix with Kiwisix power supply replacement, Kiwisix PCB/MIDI firmware upgrade, Synthgraphics Kiwisix control panel decal, brand new replacement key contacts from LA Synth Co, new push switches, and a Tubbutec "Polysex" OSC mod (using original Polysix knobs to match). Included are the original manual, original patchbook, and an original Korg product advertisement from the 80s.
All of these improvements effectively create the modern Polysix we'd all love to see from Korg. Check out the embedded video to see how the Polysex adds a completely new dynamic to the trusty Polysix. The keys on this unit really do feel nice after the contact upgrade and the switch replacements go a long way for ease of use. No more dropped notes or button presses!"
