4ms Ensemble Oscillator (ENOSC) - Learn Mode

4ms Company

"The Ensemble Oscillator allows users to create their own custom scales. Here we have a CV keyboard inputting notes, and a QPLFO used for modulating waveforms and Root control. Make sure to listen in stereo when possible. Sound is straight from the Ensemble Oscillator with no processing or effects.

AUREX DIVA CTRL for the Novation Launch Control XL

via Kickstarter

"FINALLY MAKING THE CONNECTION

I like hardware synths. I love turning knobs, pushing buttons, and flicking faders when creating sounds. However, I also love all the software synths that are available now, especially because of very convincing analog sounding softsynths such as U-He Diva.

I've always felt the connection between software plugins and hardware controllers was missing something. When controlling hardware synthesizers, you get a great user interface, with clear labelling and tactile control over every parameter. MIDI controllers however, often present you with an uninspiring interface with mismatching colours, incorrect text or inaccurate labels. More importantly, they often can't handle more advanced functions like modulation assignment, interactive LED feedback or multi-button control over one single function. I also forget which knob I midi mapped to which function and so on ... I didn't connect with them like I do with hardware - until now.

This is exactly why I developed the aurex DIVA CTRL bundle. This bundle makes the Novation LaunchControl XL function as the ultimate MIDI controller for for U-He's Diva software synthesizer. I built a custom MIDI template (using advanced programming with BOME) that translates every Launch Control XL's MIDI message into all kinds of relevant MIDI data for Diva, offering much more possibilities than the original Launch Control XL's functions. In addition, I designed a hardware cover that fits on top of the Launch Control XL and has all these new features printed. This bundle comes with everything included (midi software, presets and a hard cover) to get you started right away.

Hyperkube @ Synthstream-Downstream June 27th, 2020

https://hyperkube.bandcamp.com/album/...

The friendly people at Synthstream asked me to be part of their first ambient-downtempo synth streaming event. The piece starts of slow and spacey and develops into a more Berlin-School oriented sequencer part.

Instead of using the Cirklon I used the Polyend SEQ for most of the sequencing duties this time, the different sequencer lanes just look nicer on video ;-).

gearlist: SEQ, Cirklon, Minilogue, System 8, Rev2, TI2 Polar, Blofeld, Monark, TAL U-NO-LX, M-Tron Pro, Valhalla DSP, Big Sky, El Capistan"

Project MARS vs Apparatus Tube VCF

Eternal Engine EMI

"MARS Wavetable oscillators engine output to NOS DAC TDA1543 and directly to tube filter input. It use vactrols to control presets.

MARS is a synthesizer engine with 4 wavetable oscillators (FM, offset, and phase restart) that are controlled independently, much like it was implemented in Korg Mono/Poly. Also available a modulation matrix all to all, two multi-function LFOs, and two HoldADSR envelopes."

MARS appears to be new. See Eternal Engine EMI label below for additional posts featuring them.

Side note: Anyone remember the CME controllers? I haven't seen on in ages.
