video upload by sonicstate
"At Superbooth 2024, Alan from AJH Synth unveiled a new, highly-specialized synth commissioned by none other than Hans Zimmer himself. This analog modular system was designed to be the centerpiece of the new *BBC Radiophonic Workshop*, a passion project of Zimmer's aimed at recreating the iconic studio at Maida Vale. With dual monophonic synth voices featuring stereo capabilities, a triple crossfader for intricate crossfading effects, and a plethora of modulation options including tap tempo LFOs and sample and hold modules, this synth is a powerhouse of vintage sound with a modern twist. The 136HP walnut case with cherry wood highlights pays homage to Zimmer's first synth, the *EMS VCS3*, while offering a more powerful and flexible sonic palette.
The limited replicas of the commissioned instrument are available for purchase, with a price tag of £15,000 including UK VAT. While not an impulse buy, this synth promises unparalleled sound and versatility for those willing to invest in its unique capabilities. With a waiting list already in place, those interested in acquiring one of these rare replicas should act fast to secure their piece of music history.

"At Superbooth 2024 we met up with Fred from Analog Sweden who introduced us to some of their new Enigizer *modules, but was especially excited to show us the new *Crum 2*. *Crum 2 is, simply put, a drum machine with melodic and harmonic abilities. Based on an initial design by* Albert Niestrom*, who designed an initial version called Crum Drum*, the *Crum 2 is designed to be bigger and more flexible than its little brother.

Under the hood, Crum 2 has 4 channels with 6 sound engines each covering percussive and melodic textures, live full control over all parameters on the front panel, probability beat generation, step and live record all with a master reverb, delay and drive effect block.
