"Incus Iteritas Alia is available now: https://bit.ly/4b0koJW
Incus Iteritas Alia smashes big and bold sounds into your patches. Incus started as a percussion voice, and was smelted into something even wilder: create kicks for any genre, snares, and metallic hits, or go melodic and create FM plucks, analog-style basslines, and so much more. Incus uses a combination of waveshaping, saturation, wavefolding, FM, and additive synthesis, plus a slew of internal modulation, all behind easy-to-use parameters perfect for jamming.

Both FM and additive synthesis can be quite complex, but Incus uses a simple set of controls to keep things straightforward."
Press release follows:
"Los Angeles, CA — Modular synthesizer company Noise Engineering, known for their innovative Eurorack modules, has announced three additions to their Alia oscillator platform: Ataraxic Iteritas Alia, Cursus Iteritas Alia, and Incus Iteritas Alia.
In 2023, Noise Engineering released the 10HP Alia platform, marking the return of their Iteritas oscillators. Alia launched with the famed Basimilus Iteritas firmware, along with Manis Iteritas and the new Debel Iteritas, but the team promised firmwares in the near future.
Now, Noise Engineering has delivered, doubling the number of firmwares available for Alia. Cursus Iteritas Alia and Ataraxic Iteritas Alia are revamped versions of the originals, promising to sound nearly identical to the originals with improved encoder tuning, a suboscillator output, and a performable Hold button. Incus Iteritas Alia is an all-new voice based around wavemorphing additive FM, designed for percussive and melodic sound design.
Since Alia is an oscillator platform, owners of existing Alias can try out all three of the new firmwares on their modules. Firmware is 100% free and swappable at any time from the Noise Engineering Customer Portal. With six firmwares now available for the platform, the Alia is an excellent choice for those who want an incredibly diverse yet compact sound source in their system. Swappable overlays for all firmwares are also available from the Noise Engineering webshop and retailers around the world.
The new Incus Iteritas Alia is an exciting addition to the lineup, utilizing Noise Engineering’s favorite synthesis tricks and techniques to create a new voice boasting a massive range of timbres. Sounds are created with a combination of additive, wavemorphing, and FM synthesis, with three different algorithms all controlled by an internal dynamics envelope. Users familiar with the Basimilus will find that Incus has a similar workflow, and while it can synthesize the best parts of a drum kit, it’s also well-suited to bass and melodic duties.
As usual for their platforms, all of the new firmwares are available as paneled modules, so customers can choose the panel they prefer. Ataraxic Iteritas Alia, Cursus Iteritas Alia, and Incus Iteritas Alia are available now at https://noiseengineering.us and at retailers globally.
Availability and pricing:
Ataraxic Iteritas Alia, Cursus Iteritas Alia, and Incus Iteritas Alia: In stock in black and silver.
Shipping from Noise Engineering and retailers starting January 18th, 2024; MSRP US$385" [check with the dealers on the right for availability]

Wavemangling FM percussion and instrument voice.
Incus Iteritas Alia smashes big and bold sounds into your patches. Incus started as a percussion voice, and was smelted into something even wilder: create kicks for any genre, snares, and metallic hits, or go melodic and create FM plucks, analog-style basslines, and so much more. Incus uses a combination of waveshaping, saturation, wavefolding, FM, and additive synthesis, plus a slew of internal modulation, all behind easy-to-use parameters perfect for jamming.

ERICA SYNTHS Introduces MEGARACK Eurorack Case
"The beauty of Eurorack is that you are not limited to a specific synthesizer form factor. This can vary anywhere from super-compact, specialized performance systems to huge studio installations. While we have many options available for the former, the latter was missing from our Eurorack case lineup and we have finally created the missing piece – a large Eurorack case that provides exceptional value for money.
The Erica Synths Megarack case is for those who take Eurorack seriously – a classically-shaped 8x126 HP all-aluminium case with side panels, featuring Erica Synths custom rails with threaded inserts providing 12A@+12V and 6A@-12V.
This monolith will provide ample housing for your modules, all while retaining a sleek elegance not commonly found in cases of this size.
In addition, it features 2 4-pole XLR connectors for gooseneck lamps (not included). You can find the lamps here.

Mass with packaging: 18.7 kg

'A comfy time machine' - DAWless track with Circuit Tracks and JX-08
video upload by Peter makes tunes
"Hello!
This track is my first track where I use my new Roland Boutique JX-08!
I have chosen it as my first tabletop synth (after Circuit Tracks) because of the following features:
- Simplicity of subtractive synthesis;
- Synthesizer part features (2 ADSR Envelopes, LFO, noise oscillators);
- Multitimbrality;
- Rich choice of effects (Delays, Reverb, Choruses, EQ, etc.);
- USB Power (sorry, Korg!)
Novation Circuit Tracks: Sequencing, Bass, Leads, Drums
Roland JX-08: harmony (chords), Second Lead
Recorded on Tascam DR-05X, then mastered (EQ, Compressor) in Audacity.

Farfisa Syntorchestra first contact

"This Syntorchestra was in really bad condition, but luckily it could be revived. It still needs some work, but I´m already loving the sound (As a huge krautrock fan, I really can´t help it) The polysection oscillator was completely dead, luckily I found a working substitute here: http://www.flatkeys.co.uk/
Also a huge shout-out to Verde for helping me in repairs: https://www.verdeaudio.com/"

Pics of the inside below.
"Had it serviced earlier this year, my excellent tech replaced the battery with a housing that allows for future battery changes without soldering and did some major cleanup, recapping and pot replacements where they was needed. All in all he did about $2000 in repairs. No midi but will include Doepfer din/sync box and cables. Works absolutely beautifully, and in unconfirmed rumors I was told by the person I bought it from in 2012 that it once belonged to John Taylor. Has patch expansion built into it and all original presets in bank b."

I feel the expander makes this instrument Shine.. the ring modulation is essential and should have been in the base model … together this synth is huge..
just a beautiful tone meeews broad rich sweeping textures .. instant cinematic soundscape.. paired with an MPE controller its just hair raising and dramatic..
there is a small scratch on top of both of these from installing into rack (shown in pics just full disclosure)
Babied never gigged just smoke free studio"
