video upload by sonicstate

"We spoke to Corry from ModBap at Superbooth 2024 about their new module, *CLRS*. This stereo module is designed as an end-of-chain processing unit with various performance features. With a DJ filter, drive, saturation, lo-fi, compressor, stereo widener, tape artifacts, and modulation options, Colors offers a wide range of creative possibilities for sound manipulation. The stereo in and out functionality adds to its versatility, making it a valuable addition to any modular setup.

CLRS is currently available for pre-order and is set to ship in June. Priced at $399 , this module falls in line with the rest of ModBap's range of modules. Corry emphasized the flexibility of CLRS, highlighting its ability to create unique textures and tones, whether you prefer a clean sound or want to push the boundaries of distortion."

SUPERBOOTH 2024: SoundForce Samples II - and SFC-OB Controller

video upload by sonicstate

"We spoke to Nicolas from Soundforce at Superbooth 2024 about their latest releases. The first product he showcased was the Samples II module, a versatile sampler module offering five channels of playback at 16 bits, 44.1 kilohertz. With a USB connector for memory sticks, users can easily load and play back a variety of sounds with minimal latency. The Samples 2 module features various playback options, such as drum type playback, start and pause playback, and random sound selection, all accessible through a single switch interface. Additionally, the module includes a mix out option and the ability to change playback speed on one channel using the trigger input of the next one.

In addition to the Samples 2 module, Nicolas also demonstrated the *SFC-OB *Oberheim MIDI controller, designed for controlling Oberheim plugins with customizable plugin modes. This MIDI controller offers two-way communication with Arturia plugins, allowing for seamless preset and track switching. Users can have up to 10 tracks with their Oberheim plugins, with the controller automatically updating to match the selected plugin.

For more information on these products, including a 30-minute DivKid demo for the Samples II module, visit the Soundforce website for details."

Dave Smith Prophet 12 soundscape - The way is broken

video upload by MIDERA

"Onto my next synth for soundscapes series. The Prophet 12. Not really a synth I've thought about selling - or rather, I do think about selling it, but it's such a cool looking synth and does do a lot of interesting things. Of which, I probably did about 5-10%. That's the interesting thing about the Jupiter 6, you can kind of go anywhere within a few movements. On the Prophet 12 or Poly Evolver, you kind of need to think it through more.

Still - the Prophet 12 is one of the best laid out synths. I guess I'm still not sold on its sound.
