Superbooth 2023: Zynaptiq Orange Vocoder


video upload by sonicstate

"We know we saw Orange Vocoder 4 at NAMM biut it was such a long time coming , we thought it was worth another demo.. Dennis showcased the plugin, which is available as a VST3 audio unit, VST2, and AX native plugin for Mac and PC. Orange Vocoder 4 packs an impressive array of features, boasting not just one, but 24 vocoders that go beyond mere emulations of vintage gear. With its cross-synthesis algorithms, the vocoder offers diverse and innovative ways of hybridizing sounds, ranging from gritty and destroyed textures to analog modeling and LPC filtering. The plugin also includes a built-in virtual analog synthesizer with a range of powerful features, such as linear FM, ring modulation, unison mode, and a self-oscillating ladder filter.

Additionally, Orange Vocoder 4 features an automatic tuning effect, making it a versatile tool for creating vocal harmony layers. To delve deeper into the plugin's capabilities, users can explore the free trial available on the Zynaptiq website.

Gamma-Ray Bursts - Wavestate + Digitakt


video upload by Waveformer

"I've gotten myself a Digitakt :-). This is my first attempt at combining it with the KORG Wavestate synthesizer. The video contains jam and patch notes in the video description below and as text overlays.

The Wavestate patch is part of the "Berlin School and Ambient Construction Kit Vol 3" soundbank, available here:

https://waveformer.gumroad.com

Wavestate performance mod knobs:
Knob 1: Layer A (arp melody 1) Octave
Knob 2: Layer B (arp bass) Octave
Knob 3: Layer C (arp chords) Octave
Knob 4: Layer D (arp melody 2) Octave
Knob 5: Layer A (arp melody 1) Amp Level
Knob 6: Layer B (arp bass) Amp Level
Knob 7: Layer C (arp chords) Amp Level
Knob 8: Layer D (arp melody 2) Amp Level

The Digitakt uses 5 tracks for sample playback:
Track 1 Kick (factory sample)
Track 2 Percussion (factory samples)
Track 5 Plinks and plonks and plucks (loop sampled from Wavestate)
Track 6 Closed Hihat (factory sample)
Track 7 Open Hihat (factory sample)

The audio is recorded to SD card on a Zoom R16 mixer/recorder and normalized in Audacity. Video is recorded on a Canon EOS M50 mk2 with the included EF-M 15-45mm lens. Audio and video is synchronized in DaVinci Resolve 18 (free version)."

Soundtoys SuperPlate Styles


video uploads by soundtoys

The 5 styles of the new SuperPlate by Soundtoys.

Available now at www.soundtoys.com

See the announcement post here

"Take a look at all five plate reverb styles included in SuperPlate – each was inspired by an iconic plate. In the development of SuperPlate, Soundtoys added nine plates to their gear collection and spent seven years immersed in reverb, dreaming up the modern features that would reinvent this classic effect.

The reverb you hear in each video is entirely one of SuperPlate's styles. Explore the unique sonic character of each individual plate style."

Playlist:

1. Soundtoys SuperPlate: E. Plate III Style
The EcoPlate III (c. 1982) was the third and smallest version of the EcoPlate series of reverbs designed by Jim Cunningham. All three plates in the EcoPlate series use a stainless steel alloy to create its reverberation and all three versions have an exceptionally bright and spacious sound. Soundtoys studied and added an EcoPlate III to our gear collection for the development of SuperPlate. E. Plate III is just one of the five plate styles and many features included in Soundtoys' SuperPlate reverb plug-in.

2. Soundtoys SuperPlate: Classic 140 Style
SuperPlate's Classic 140 plate style is based on the EMT 140 (1957), the most well-known and the first commercially successful plate reverb. It was made by hanging a plate of cold-rolled steel in a metal frame, and as legend has it, the steel came from one specific Welsh ore mine. The EMT 140 was a studio standard for decades, and is what most people reference when they talk about plate reverb. Soundtoys studied and added five EMT 140 units to our gear collection for the development of SuperPlate. Classic 140 is just one of the five plate styles and many features included in Soundtoys' SuperPlate reverb plug-in.

3. Soundtoys SuperPlate: Audicon Style
“The Plate” (c. 1971) also known as the “Lawson Plate” was designed by Gene Lawson (Lawson Microphones) in Nashville to be a more economical plate reverb for those who couldn’t afford an original EMT 140. It was manufactured by console manufacturer Auditronics out of Memphis, Tennessee. Soundtoys studied and added "The Plate" to our gear collection for the development of SuperPlate. Audicon is just one of the five plate styles and many features included in Soundtoys' SuperPlate reverb plug-in.

4. Soundtoys SuperPlate: Stocktronics Style
The Stocktronics RX4000 (1978) is the only Swedish plate we know of, and it uses a steel alloy plate with low internal crystallic damping characteristics, which gives it a very distinctive extended high-frequency response. In other words, this plate has zing! While Soundtoys was unable to add the Stocktronics RX4000 to our gear collection, our study of the RX4000 was made possible by proud Stocktronics owners spanning two continents (if anyone is keen to sell, please call us!). Stocktronics is just one of the five plate styles and many features included in Soundtoys' SuperPlate reverb plug-in.

Special thanks to Mattias Olsson at Roth Händle Studio for letting us access this impeccable Stocktronics RX4000 – @RothHandle
5. Soundtoys SuperPlate: Goldfoil 240 Style
SuperPlate's Goldfoil 240 plate style is based on the EMT 240 (1970). While technically not a plate at all, it was designed to create a more compact and portable reverb. Instead of a steel plate, the EMT 240 used a thin foil of 24-karat gold to create its distinctive darker and tighter sound. Soundtoys studied and added two EMT 240 units to our gear collection for the development of SuperPlate. Goldfoil 240 is just one of the five plate styles and many features included in Soundtoys' SuperPlate reverb plug-in.

Modular Synthesizer Ensemble at Superbooth 23


video upload by Sine Community

"The 'Modular Synthesizer Ensemble' is a social-acoustic and participative music project and offers the possibility to make music together in an ensemble without any previous musical knowledge.

The project makes it possible to design the process of creating electronic sounds with the analog Modular Synthesizer. The participants experiment, improvise and compose together and perform the results live in public.

In collaboration with the Miller-Zillmer Foundation which supports people regardless of their social and national background and promotes projects that are sustainable, that empower and create education, while adding value to the broader community.

Driven by a cultural led philosophy delivering interesting visions. We stand up for human rights and integration, for social inclusion, respect and tolerance, world openness and the protection of cultural assets. A foundation for important works of collaboration and engagement.

A transcript of the interview prior to the Modular Synthesizer Ensemble performing at SuperBooth 2023 can be found on the Sine Community website at https://sinecommunity.com/modular-syn...

"Technics sy 1010 analog synth, 100% original Japanese domestic model, works perfectly. A single VCO, LFO, VCF, ADSR, VCA mono synth with great routing, ala the moog micromoog, with a very similar filter.

This specific unit was cleaned, tested and is in good condition. Has some scratches here and there but nothing major. Keys are a bit yellow.

This is a Japanese (110v) unit, free 220v adapter available."
