You were not supposed to see this | Multi Sample DPO (from 2034)


video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"When I made the Deckard's Dreams video yesterday [below], I tried to multi-sample a Shared System patch. I thought it would be cool to sample a big duophonic patch with movement an effects - and sample a range of C2 to C6 into bitbox so I could play it like this huge machine of countless Shared Systems.

I am going to try Strega too one day. It felt like magic, almost like patching on 'forbidden ground'. Then I tought it would be cool to use a bit of click-bait and imagine myself in 2034 when I'd have 1M likers and 1.1M haters while collecting forbidden MakeNoise gear on the Black market. I realize it may be too farfetched for some of you, but this is real. It's a private video and you are not supposed to see it anyway."

Deckard's Dreams | BitBox Multi-Sampling & Deckard's Voice

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"BitBox MK2 (and the Micro) offer support for 'multi-sampling'. It's an easy automated process where BitBox will send pitch CV and a gate to sample a range of notes and lay them out on the keyboard. So with this simple trick, you could turn any VCO into a polyphonic velocity sensitive patch. In this case, it helps me to turn Deckard's Voice (mono) into a (static) CS-80 patch which still can be filtered, enveloped, etc. But it's also possible to play the VCO while sampling, so you'd get a rich pad with lots of movement. It's the first time I used this technique and it will not be the last."

SERGE GTS for eurorack - MINIMUM function

"Playing around with the MINIMUM function of the Serge GTS for eurorack.

The Serge GTS is a complete redesign of the famous Serge Dual Universal Slope Generator (DUSG) by Serge himself - with a new core, optimized for speed and tracking. Like some of the clones it can be used for CV, but also provides exceptional audio performance: transient rise times as fast as 13µs and a maximum cycle speed of 27kHz."

SOUNDMIT 2023 - BIT MASKING REVOLUTION - KODAMO

"La presenza forte di @Kodamo al @SOUNDMIT ha davvero aggiunto un tocco speciale, soprattutto considerando che li abbiamo già avuti con noi nelle edizioni passate. Questi ragazzi dalla Francia sono i cervelli dietro al Bit Masking, una nuova forma di sintesi digitale che hanno introdotto per la prima volta nella tastiera Mask1, presentata in anteprima mondiale al Soundmit 2022. E tra le chicche che ci hanno svelato, c'è anche il piano di tirare fuori un synth compatto, probabilmente con una combinazione di FM e Samples!

@Kodamo's strong presence at @SOUNDMIT has truly added a special touch, especially considering we've already had them with us in past editions. These folks from France are the masterminds behind Bit Masking, a new form of digital synthesis they first introduced in the Mask1 keyboard, showcased worldwide for the first time at Soundmit 2022. And among the goodies they've shared, there's also the plan to unveil a compact synth, probably featuring a mix of FM and Samples!

Ces gens de France sont les cerveaux derrière le Bit Masking, une nouvelle forme de synthèse numérique qu'ils ont introduite pour la première fois dans le clavier Mask1, présenté en avant-première mondiale au Soundmit 2022. Et parmi les nouveautés qu'ils ont dévoilées, il y a aussi le projet de sortir un synthé compact, probablement avec une combinaison de FM et d'échantillons !

KORG Reveals Upcoming PS-3300 FS



Update: I'm hearing the PS-3300 will be available in late 2024, built-to-order, for an etimated price of $13,000.

KORG is bringing out a full-size reissue of the PS-3300. Details follow.

The PS-3300 FS is a full-scale reissue of the original Korg PS-3300, a legendary and ultra-rare synthesizer designed by legendary Korg engineer Fumio Mieda and produced by Korg in very limited numbers from 1977 to 1981.

The PS-3300 FS reissue marks a new milestone in synth history, and the latest achievement by the same Korg engineering team that brought back iconic machines such as the MS-20, ARP ODYSSEY, miniKORG 700 FS and ARP 2600.

“Bringing back to life these legendary machines is not only a process of reproducing circuits and sounds, but also of learning and embracing the essence of the philosophy and development of synthesizers.

Through this project I was able to relive the history of Korg and a critical moment in the evolution of our synthesizers. This was an extremely valuable experience that provided an opportunity for Korg's philosophy and technology to be carried on to future generations.”

- Yoshihito Yamada, Chief Engineer of Korg Analog Synthesizers

Key features
49 keys / 49 voice analog polyphony (the original model had 48 keys / voices)

3 Layers: The PS-3300 consists of three synthesizer units (PSU-3301) and a mixer & utility section (PSU-3302)

Three independent oscillators, plus multiple filters, envelopes and amplifiers for every note on its keyboard, for a total of 147 synth voices of raw analog power

Microtuning knob x12 on each PSU-3301 unit

New panel memory function (16 programs per bank and 16 banks = 256 slots)

Modernised for contemporary music use with the inclusion of USB / MIDI jacks, and a dedicated librarian app for easy preset management

Semi-modular

3-Band Resonator: Three frequency bands can be emphasised, a feature unique to the PS-3300 (original was a Cadmium sulfide circuit, but it was replaced with modern components for safety and to comply with regulations)

Keyboard unit (PS-3010) included

You can find an audio demo on KORG's website here.

"Racing around the Sun.
This modular synth project is a single take to Cubase. Every sound is from the 5U modular with the exception of the pad effects by the use of a Strymon Blue Sky and Empress Reverb.
The Noise sweep sound is a Joyo Classic Flanger pedal."
