text as image as sound - Paolo Dellapiana live at Biennale Art Venice 2024

video upload by Pit Przygodda

"Italian artist Paolo Dellapiana plays an audiovisual live set at Biennale Art Venice 2024, at Studio 454. He uses his optical sound synthesizer 'Silhouette Eins' plus a small eurorack synth unit and external fx.
As visual materials, that generate the sound, he uses typographic elements, score shapes and computer grafics and plays them with the Silhouette Eins."

Easel Chapter - Modular Synthesis: Patching Machines and People

video upload by Todd Barton

"Every Buchlaphile and especially Easel owners must read this enlightening and exciting chapter by Ted Gordon @ted_gordon on Instagram
https://www.routledge.com/Modular-Syn..."

"Modular Synthesis: Patching Machines and People brings together scholars, artists, composers, and musical instrument designers in an exploration of modular synthesis, an unusually multifaceted musical instrument that opens up many avenues for exploration and insight, particularly with respect to technological use, practice, and resistance.

Through historical, technical, social, aesthetic, and other perspectives, this volume offers a collective reflection on the powerful connections between technology, creativity, culture, and personal agency. Ultimately, this collection is about creativity in a technoscientific world and speaks to issues fundamental to our everyday lives and experiences, by providing insights into the complex relationships between content creators, the technologies they use, and the individuals and communities who design and engage with them.

With chapters covering VCV Rack, modular synthesis, instrument design, and the histories of synthesizer technology, as well as interviews with Dave Rossum, Corry Banks, Meng Qi, and Dani Dobkin, among others, Modular Synthesis is recommended reading for advanced undergraduates, researchers, and practitioners of electronic music and music technology.

The Roland Jupiter 8: Essential Special FX

video upload by Andy Whitmore

"Hold onto your seats because this Jupiter 8 demonstration, in glorious stereo, will blow you away. Showing off the different abilities that has made it one of the most famous synths ever made!
We show off the Noise with Filter, Resonance & Modulation capabilities in great detail, with the left & right sides working independently.
The arpeggiator with its versatile patterns, being tweaked on the live panel.
A stunning showing of the power of the Jupiter 8 with low aggressive power chords filtered & modulated.

There were only a few synths - back in the 80s that mastered the polyphonic glide - here we hear the versatile polyphonic glide doing what it does best!
The 3rd part of this video covers Programming including tuning the oscillators, playing the Jupiter 8 as a lead synth in unison & pretty sounds to add colour to your track.
The final part shows you some of my best programmed sounds including brassy sawtooth pads, plucked stabs, flute layering, soft percussive sounds, interesting pads, 80s picking parts
resonance pads, lead sounds & sharp attacking aggressive cutting melodic lines.
So lets dive in!

The audio is DIRECT, 100% DRY, & IN STEREO - You are hearing the raw audio as it comes directly from the synthesizer. NO post processing (Effects, EQ, or Dynamics) whatsoever.

The original Roland Jupiter 8 from the early 80s - a very rare synth & arguably the most ultimate analog synth ever made!"

Expressive E Introduces Noisy 2 - The Next-gen MPE synth

Noisy 2 - Walkthrough Video

Press release follows:

After the successful launch of Osmose, MPE expert company Expressive E continues to expand its sound ecosystem with Noisy 2. Built for expression, Noisy 2 offers a new MPE mode that goes way beyond regular MPE integration. Its workflow was built for intuitive and expressive sound design, unleashing novel playing possibilities. To match its next-gen MPE abilities, Noisy 2 is powered by an outstanding sound engine based on new acoustic and analog resonators. This synth was made to be expressive with any MPE or classic MIDI controller and brings a brand new expressive experience for sound designers and musicians.

Unlocking new playing gestures for MPE users

At the heart of its MPE mode, Noisy 2’s expression blocks offer new playing possibilities for MPE users with trig modes.

Inspired by its Osmose experience, these Trig modes are a new, powerful, and playful way to trigger envelopes: add sound impulses by accelerating your gesture downwards (push), upwards (lift), or alternating up and down (shake) at any point within the key’s travel.

Listen to the new musical possibilities unlocked by Noisy 2’s MPE mode here.

Easy expressive sound design

Noisy 2 has been built to make the expressive sound design experience fun and intuitive.

Its workflow enables musicians and sound designers to intuitively choose their own way of interacting with the sonic dimensions of any preset. With a few clicks on the expression blocks, users can find the perfect balance between Pressure, Aftertouch, and the envelope generator to refine their personal expressive playing experience.

Producers and musicians can now integrate new motions into their projects by sculpting sounds directly with their hands and fingers.

On top of deep MPE integration, Noisy 2 offers various ways to simply and creatively add motion to sounds. With both classic MIDI and MPE controllers, the Expression Control section can now deeply alter each layer of Noisy 2 and its two FX slots with a simple turn of a knob.

Neuzeit Instruments brings AI to Eurorack

Neuzeit Instruments WARP: AI-powered wavetables, stereo spread, knobs saved in presets: NEW firmware video upload by Neuzeit

https://www.neuzeit-instruments.com/warp

Details from the video:

- New: AI powered wavetable/spectrum generator
- New: stereo spread parameter
- New: knobs saved into presets
- And many more cool features that firmware v2.00 brings!

0:00 Intro
1:25 AI wavetable generator
7:22 AI knowledge
10:07 WT export for other synths
11:19 Stereo widening
12:27 Recall pot positions
16:09 Other new features

Press release:

Neuzeit Instruments has released new firmware for its synthesizer “Warp”. Among other things, it contains a wavetable editor that works with artificial intelligence. A neural network generates overtone spectra that are translated into wavetables by Warp. Three parameters are available to the user, with which he can playfully and fluently morph through the creations of the neural network.
The generated wavetables can not only be used within Warp, but can also be exported as a wav file for use in other synthesizers.

Warp is a four-voice synthesizer in Eurorack format whose sophisticated engine is a hybrid of additive and wavetable synthesis. The core features:

- Wavetable morphing in two dimensions (XY)
- complex spectral filters
- Wavetable FX (Fold, Bend, Drive, Redux)
- Oscillator FX (AM, FM, PM, Sync, Noise, Detune)
- 2 ADSRs, 2 LFOs
- Extensive modulation matrix
- Classic high and low pass filters per voice
- 4 wavetable editors onboard, also supporting import of wavetable files from SD card
- 7 potentiometers as expressive hands-on macro controls
- Workflow focussed on detailed work in the studio, easy handling on stage

The WarpEx expander adds:
- MIDI support and extensive CC control
- MIDI MPE
- 4-voice polyphony

The new firmware v2.00 is now available to download for free from the manufacturer's website.
