Molten Music Monthly - April 2020 - Superbooth Special

Published on Apr 30, 2020 Molten Music Technology

"It's been Superbooth 2020 Home Edition and there's too much stuff. Not all of it was new but we had unprecedented detail in awesome live streams about a load of modules and synth. Including my own live stream interviews with synth related people who fascinate me. There are lots to get through and this is just the stuff that I liked in particular - there are loads of things I didn't have space for.

Erica Synths goes nuclear, ST Modular releases 1000 DIY modules, Ritual Modular gets into 1U, 1010music gives us a mini sampler, Befaco does a mini VCMC, Expert Sleepers gives us double the trouble, Bastl loops MIDI, Liquid Foam is a very cool box, Tangible Waves lets us all build modules, Strokes 2 is a mad software groove machine, TiNRS has a Covid kick drum module, Future Sound Systems has a complex VCO, Noodlebox is a thing, Critter and Guitaris does video, There's a whole synth in KOSMO format, Elk Audio OS does something interesting, and there's a shed load of stereo filters. But first, Distrokid.

Roland Jupiter X - Jupiter 8 Sounds Demo

Published on Apr 27, 2020 Chris Smelko

"A short demo showcasing just a few of the abilities of the Roland Jupiter X synthesizer. In this video I focus on the Jupiter 8 model sounds , stacking them in different ways and playing around with the filter and envelopes. Other than a few quirks, Roland definitely hit a home run with this."

New Behringer Solina In the Works

Quick note on Behringer: you might have noticed a lack of Behringer posts on the site. If you are wondering why, read this.

That said, only new product announcements will get a one time post for the time being as this is a synth news site. These posts will also serve as a reminder to do some research and make an educated call for yourself on whether or not you want to support them. And for the record, I will not judge or shame anyone using their products. That is a personal call.

That out of the way, here's some info on the upcoming Solina String-Ensemble from Behringer:

"We’re very excited to now share with you the first prototype of our Solina String Ensemble. As you can see we’re using rapid prototyping tools such as 3D printers to speed up the process.

This is actually not a trivial product - just look at the vast amount of analog components.

The Solina is now on the way to Germany to our innovation team who will implement the firmware and hopefully soon we will be able to let you hear the first beautiful string sounds."
