Formanta Polivoks - Soviet Synth Sensation

HAINBACH

"In which I play and demo the vintage Formanta Polivoks, a two voice paraphonic analog synth from 1980s Soviet Union. I love this wild and strange instrument, it has been on my wishlist for ages. It sounds nothing the synths available in the 'west' at the time and follows its own unique ideas."

Roland FA-06 + System-8 "Electronic Rock"
Synthesizer Demo by Rik Marston
***Watch in HD!!*** **Turn It UP!** ***No Talking!!!***

The Roland FA-06 & System-8 Electronic Rock JAM!
All music & beats from the FA-06, System-8 is playing
via MIDI the Analog Metal Guitar Pluck. I mute parts ON
and OFF thru the JAM until I sweet close. Simple & quick.
This is considered "on the fly" since I'm not using "song mode".
The Roland FA-06 is my favorite workstation, baby! ;)

I love the JD-XA, it is from another world...
Just like the Meteorites I collect, it is super cool, unique & beautiful!
I love how DEEP this synth is, the real synth heads will love it, others
honestly would not know what to do with it. It's a TRIP.
I'm sure even an Alien race would think it is advanced for sonic
creation. I bet there are a few JD-XA's that actually have made it
secretly into space and are being played on other worlds...
JD-XA in SPACE! Roland Galactic Alliance 2020!

Sequential Discontinues The Tempest

via @sequentialLLC

"After nearly 9 years Sequential’s 6-voice analog drum synth Tempest is retiring. To get one while stock lasts, check with an authorized dealer or contact us at http://sequential.com/ask-sequential for referrals. On the bright side, we’re as busy as ever designing new products, so stay tuned!"

See the shop banners on the right for availability. Update: Original intro video from Dave Smith and Roger Linn added below. See this post for the initial announcement of the Tempest including additional pics and videos.


More than just a drum machine, the Tempest was a 6 voice synth with an engine similar to to the 4 voice Poly Evolver and mono Evolver.

via Sequential: "Each of the six analog voices has two analog oscillators plus two digital oscillators (with a large bank of included samples), the classic Curtis analog lowpass filter with audio-rate modulation, an additional highpass filter, analog VCA with feedback, five envelopes, two LFOs, an extraordinary variety of analog modulation routings, and stunning sonic quality, warmth, and punch. Although optimized for drum sounds, it excels at tuned sounds as well, and even doubles as a six-voice analog keyboard synth."

Live coding the Elektron Digitone with ORCΛ

EZBOT

"In this video I finally test out the multi-map feature on the Digitone. What this allows you to do is to set different "sounds" to specific notes or note ranges. I used this feature for the drums. I also spent a great deal of time making the bass synth sound as close to an analog saw as I could - what is cool about this is that I can morph the bass line from an "analog" sound to a very digital FM sound quickly, this is something you really can't do on an analog synth easily if at all.
