Boredbrain Optx v2 brief introduction (ADAT converter for eurorack)


video upload by Boredbrain Music

"Optx v2 - ADAT Optical Converter
Boredbrain is incredibly excited to finally announce that our next generation ADAT module Optx v2 is complete, and is on its way into production. As of today, you can pre-order the module, and the first batch will begin shipping very soon in mid October.

Next generation ADAT conversion
Optx v2 is a pro-quality ADAT lightpipe converter for eurorack modular synthesizers. The DC-coupled module can encode and decode audio signals with extremely low noise, and CV signals with near-zero offset. Additionally, on-board sample clock allows for one-way ADAT output and the ability to be used standalone to interconnect eurorack systems.

Features:
• Bi-directional ADAT lightpipe encoding/decoding of 8 analog inputs/outputs
• Switchable input mode (in pairs) powered by high-performance Cirrus Logic converters
• AUDIO input mode ensures the highest fidelity possible with ultra-low noise
• Self-calibrating CV input mode provides exceptional accuracy and near-zero offset (DC-coupled)
• Precision DC-coupled outputs support both audio and CV signals
• Internal sample clock permits one-way operation without ADAT input and standalone interconnection of two Optx modules
• Dual LEDs on each output indicate signal strength and polarity"

"It has been a while since I pulled out the Moog Eurorrack. The Novation Circuit Mono Station is the perfect companion to it due to have 3 CV outputs to control it with. Who would be interested in a tutorial video of the connections?"

Summer Never Dies | Oberheim OB-6


video upload by hvegel

"Summer reminds me of running free. Trips to the beach. Walks through the woods. Hot and bustling trains full of excited children and tired parents. I was born in the cold, and enjoy Winter, supremely above all other seasons, yet the Summer, might be the most nostalgic."

"'SorrowPlantsMix' is a sample of the motif from my favorite album, IPPU-DO 'NightMirage' sampled with an AKAI MPC2000. I disassembled and regenerated it.
I used a CS-10 filter to add a lo-fi feel."

Cherry Audio Introduces Blue3 Organ


video upload by Cherry Audio

Cherry Audio | B3yond Preset Pack for Blue3 Organ

video upload by Cherry Audio

"B3yond Preset Pack for Blue3 Organ by James Dyson, featuring 100 more out-of-this-world presets that showcase how the Cherry Audio effects extend Blue3 beyond the typical tonewheel sound, and take advantage of splits, mod wheel, and aftertouch on compatible MIDI controllers."



via Cherry Audio

"GG Audio's Blue3 tonewheel organ is back, better, and more affordable, with a whole new look from Cherry Audio.

Blue3 is a meticulously modeled — not sampled — virtual instrument that replicates the most famous tonewheel organs in the world: the B-3, C-3, A-100, L-100, CV, and M-3 models. With 31 tonewheel sets accurately capturing variations between vintage instruments, 91 modeled tonewheels with phase synchronization, and authentically emulated scanner vibrato/chorus, Blue3 delivers the iconic, soulful sounds associated with nearly a century of blues, gospel, rock, and jazz classics.

Cherry Audio's Blue3 features a new, beautifully designed user interface with Main, Edit, Cabinet, and Perform sections. And it goes beyond the traditional B3 sound by adding three studio-quality stompbox-style effects: Tape Echo Delay, Reverb with Spring, Plate, and Hall, and a Seven-band Graphic EQ.

Blue3 offers full polyphony for upper, lower, and pedal manuals, a customizable keyboard split function, and handy drawbar utilities including Copy, Swap, Reset, and Randomize. Tones can be further refined with settings for condition, key click, percussion, and multiple overdrive options.

The Cabinet page provides six speaker options and adjustable rotary speed with acceleration and deceleration. The microphone simulation includes spread and distance controls, four mic selections, and click-and-drag placement in an updated UI.

With MIDI mapping and a rich library of over 200 presets covering classic to modern tones, Blue3 is the ultimate package for both stage and studio."
