Schlappi Engineering THREE BODY / gentle chords

video upload by BRiES

"THREE BODY's audio palette is not limited to noise, harsh fm and destruction, it's actually very easy to get nice chords out of the unit. I'm using STEP 8 by Joranalogue Audio Design for shift register duties (creating chords out of a sequence coming from MOSKWA 2 by Xaoc Devives). µCHORUS 6 by Soundforce is used to create width. Additional external effects (delay and reverb) take care of the spaciousness.

What's not demonstrated in this video but very easy with THREE BODY: you can create supersaw sounds where the 3 VCOs are either drifting in and out of phase or slightly detuned for a more thick unison sound. All you need is some external modulation and a way to mix the 3 (or more) outputs."

Erica Synths Black DJ VCF

video upload by Erica Synths

"Erica Synths Black DJ VCF provides sound treatment functionality typically found on DJ decks – it is fully open when the cutoff knob is set to 12:00. When turned counter-clockwise, lowpass filtering is applied and when turned clockwise, highpass filtering is applied. The Black DJ VCF is of a fully analogue design and consists of two VCFs – highpass and lowpass in series and thefilter management is done by complex CV routing.

Timeline:
00:02 - 'Ar mani atkal runā kaijas' filtered with DJ VCF and modulated with Octasource
01:05 - Gabber kick through the DJ VCF with some resonance added
02:02 - Mono breakbeat sent through two DJ VCFs and modulated with the Octasource to screate a stereo effect
03:08 - Noisy loop through DJ VCF
03:47 - Wabetable VCO sent through DJ VCF which is modulated with a envelope from Black EG2
04:32 - Jam from Multilux where whole eurorack system is sent through DJ VCF"

Introducing the KORG opsix SE and SE Platinum

video upload by Korg

One week after the Wavestate SE and SE Platinum were announced, Korg introduces the opsix SE and SE Platinum. Curious if we will see the modwave next week. Note the Wavestate SE is currently listed on Korg's Reverb site for $1999, and the Platinum edition for $2199.

video description:

"opsix SE is a digital synth like no other. With a premium all-metal design, 61-keys, and aftertouch, it unlocks a new world of sonic capabilities. Building on the expansive sound engine in the original opsix, opsix SE enhances it with increased polyphony and voicing, resulting in a synthesizer created for superior performance and precise control.

opsix SE is also available in a Limited Edition Platinum finish. Both versions ship in a dedicated hard case, including space for cables and a sustain pedal."

"The Ultimate Union of Power and Performance

opsix SE is a digital synth like no other. With a premium all-metal design, 61-keys, and aftertouch, it unlocks a new world of sonic capabilities. Building on the expansive sound engine in the original opsix, opsix SE enhances it with increased polyphony and voicing, resulting in a synthesizer created for superior performance and precise control.

The opsix Operator Mixer simplified FM synthesis for the first time, making it not just comprehensible but also controllable. With the addition of extra synthesis capabilities and programming, it offered a more efficient workflow and an even richer sound.

The opsix SE takes this even further. It is equipped with Korg's premium 61-key natural-touch keyboard, complete with aftertouch, delivering the exceptional tactile experience expected from Korg's flagship workstations. With a sleek, robust metal body, it's built for both the intensity of live gigs and the precision of studio sessions. The metallic knobs are optimally weighted for effortless adjustments. Underneath its exterior, the opsix SE boasts an incredible capacity of 80 stereo voices of polyphony.

The opsix SE arrives preloaded with hundreds of sounds enhanced for aftertouch control. Moreover, it is fully compatible with the sounds and samples from both the original opsix and the opsix Native software, including numerous high-quality libraries.

The limited color model, wavestate SE Platinum, is released at the same time as the wavestate SE. The Platinum edition features the same 61 keys with aftertouch and comes with a hard case as the wavestate SE, while the premium silver aluminum panel and stainless steel side panels, which are only available on this special model, create an overwhelming presence on stage and in the studio.

Also included is an original sticker with the KORG logo. The wavestate SE Platinum is available in limited quantities, so be sure to get yours soon."
