"The SH-2 is a 2VOC + sub-oscillator that can create a variety of sounds equivalent to 3VOC.VOC-1 adds a sine wave to the conventional wave type, and can effectively create 2VOC sounds. Also, since the bender lever can control only VOC-2, the pitch between 2VOC can be set freely.Furthermore, it is equipped with a delay vibrato that is necessary to bring out the character of an instrument and an auto bend that realistically expresses the rise of the sound. It is a synthesizer that is small but boasts the same equipment as a high-end model, has easy-to-use operability, and has expandability based on 1 volt / 1 octave."

Dreadbox Nymphes Review - Affordable 6 Voice Analogue Poly Synth

"I've owned or used a lot of Dreadbox synthesizers, from the early incarnations of the Erebus when I spotted it in a modular synth shop and it blew my mind. I blame both Dreadbox and Jason from Signal Sounds for bankrupting me since then with my slide into Eurorack.

Anyway, I wasn't convinced about the Nymphes when I first saw it advertised, as the menu control seemed a bit confusing and the synth lacking some features. However, when I saw the price was 'just' £449, I decided to take the plunge, and I am glad I did.

Here's my take on the Dreadbox Nymphes. What its features are, its strengths, whether or not that menu system actually is a problem or not... and my general experience using it so far. All of it is entwined with some wee bits and pieces of sounds direct from the synth itself. Don't take my slagging of Americans too seriously... it's what you all deserve for regularly abusing me for my accent. :*

Roland VOCODER SCV-350 // I LOVE this thing

video upload by Starsky Carr

"A look at Roland's Vocoder SVC-350. It's probably the best your money can buy - The Moog is hugely expensive and the EMS Vocoder 2000 and 3000 are incredibly rare (and equally expensive). This isn't bad value in comparison, they seem to sell for around £1500. BUT.. .sounds. a lot better than any other hardware I've used... but then most of them are digital - nothing wrong with that but they don't have the clarity for some reason. I'm not sure if the Digitech Talker has analog circuitry but that sounds very clear too. check out my vocoder roundup for more." [posted here]

Getting High with the Make Noise Erbe-Verb (music performance)

video upload by Red Means Recording

"I recently got the Make Noise Erbe-Verb, a wild algorithmic reverb that is much more of a sound design effect than a proper reverb. That's ok, I got lots of reverb, I'd rather play with it like it's a crazy friend.

So this jam was a test of how Erbe sounds on drums. I added a TON of new samples to my Erica Synth Sample Drum and will be doing a lot more drum loop worth with it.

Nebulae is also in play, since I just make a bunch of new samples for it using the Native Instruments Arkhis Kontant Library."
