ASM Introduces Limited Edition Hydrasynth Explorer 888 in Orange



Press release follows:

ASM proudly presents production-limited orange ‘Hydrasynth Explorer 888 Units’

LOS ANGELES, CA, USA/HONG KONG, CHINA: Ashun Sound Machines (ASM) is proud to present ‘Hydrasynth Explorer 888 Units’ — ultimately available as a special edition of Hydrasynth Explorer dressed up in an eye-catching orange colour scheme synonymous with the music hardware brand itself and limited to a production run of 888 units worldwide, which will surely appeal to both numerology enthusiasts and synth collectors alike — at The Brooklyn Synth & Pedal Expo, October 5-6, Brooklyn, NY, USA and Machina Bristronica, October 12-13, Bristol, UK…

It is fair to say that the eye-catching orange colour scheme applied to ‘Hydrasynth Explorer 888 Units’ has been synonymous with ASM since day one. Such synonymity is being celebrated by ASM, applying that same colour scheme to the appropriately-named ‘Hydrasynth Explorer 888 Units’ as a special edition of Hydrasynth Explorer — effectively a compact-sized Hydrasynth featuring a 37-note mid-sized key-bed with proprietary ASM Polytouch® technology to provide responsive velocity and expressive polyphonic aftertouch features that are not found in other smaller-sized keyboards in a perfectly portable package (optionally) powered by eight (not included) AA batteries — limited to a production run of 888 units worldwide. Why 888 units? Ultimately answering that supposedly simple question yields some interesting information — in keeping with ‘Hydrasynth Explorer 888 Units’ yielding some interesting sounds — for not only is 888 a strobogrammatic number, meaning that the numerals used are rotationally symmetric so appear the same when read upside down, the number itself represents triple fortune in numerology! Needless to say, ‘Hydrasynth Explorer 888 Units’ will surely appeal to both numerology enthusiasts and synth collectors alike. And who knows? Owners of those production-limited ‘Hydrasynth Explorer 888 Units’ may one day be sitting on a small fortune!

Anyone attending The Brooklyn Synth & Pedal Expo, October 5-6, Brooklyn, NY, USA — a free-to-the- public pop-up event of synths and guitar effect pedals — and/or Machina Bristronica, October 12-13, Bristol, UK — a festival of knobs, buttons, and discussions — could have the good fortune of experiencing ASM showcasing ‘Hydrasynth Explorer 888 Units’ there for all to see and hear. However, anyone wishing to buy ‘Hydrasynth Explorer 888 Units’ — packaged with a limited-edition sticker sheet featuring related themes — will have to practice a little patience... rest assured, though, that they will be well worth waiting for.

Available at participating authorised ASM dealers in November 2024, ‘Hydrasynth Explorer 888 Units’ is priced at an MSRP of $799.00 USD ($649 USD MAP)/€859.00 EUR/£715.00 GBP.

Tiliqua: Synthesizing Music Synthesizers (ORConf 2024)


video upload by vk2seb

Also see Tiliqua FPGA-based synthesizer.

"Tiliqua is an open-source Eurorack module that aims to make FPGA-based audio and video synthesis more accessible.

For updates: https://www.crowdsupply.com/apfelaudi...

This is a reupload of a talk I gave on Sept 13, 2024 at ORConf in Gothenburg, Sweden. Learn more about ORConf at https://fossi-foundation.org/orconf/2024."



"Tiliqua aims to make FPGA-based audio and video synthesis accessible to everyone. The Tiliqua hardware architecture, alongside a comprehensive collection of example projects built in Python (Amaranth HDL), allows you to experiment with synthesis techniques that are out of reach of embedded microcontroller-based platforms. Think extreme oversampling for alias-free audio-rate modulation, low-latency effects, video synthesis, and high-speed USB audio.

Tiliqua can store up to 8 projects (bitstreams) simultaneously—you can switch between them at runtime without needing a PC. Out of the box, Tiliqua can be:

A video synthesizer (vectorscope display with audio-rate beam modulation)
A multichannel wavetable oscillator (1 MHz oversampling for audio-rate FM)
A high-speed 4 in/4 out USB 2.0 audio interface
A polyphonic MIDI/touch synthesizer
A multichannel diffusion delay
A multichannel pitch shifter
A MIDI/CV converter
A matrix mixer
As the project develops and with community contributions, we hope to add many more.

Tiliqua itself is modular—the FPGA core (an integrated System-on-Module in M.2 form factor) can be removed and embedded in your projects. The audio interface section can be decoupled and connected to other FPGA development platforms. Pictured above, Tiliqua contains the following key components:

Audio Interface
8 (4 in + 4 out) DC-coupled audio channels, 192 KHz / 24-bit sampling supported
Touch and proximity sensing on all 8 audio jacks (if unused)
PWM-controlled, user-programmable red/green LEDs on each audio channel
Jack insertion detection on all 8 jacks
Motherboard
Switched rotary encoder with bar graph display.
Dual USB ports:
dbg: Included RP2040-based JTAG debugger supported by openFPGAloader
usb2: USB PHY connected directly to FPGA for high-speed USB Audio support
Display output for video synthesis (maximum resolution 720/60P)
2x expansion ports for up to 24 simultaneous audio channels (PMOD-compatible)
MIDI-In jack (TRS-A standard)"

ACL Modular Synthesizer Workshop with Stefan Lewin – SchneidersLaden


video upload by SchneidersLaden

"On September 19th, Stefan Lewin of ACL (Audiophile Circuits League) hosted a deep dive into modular synthesis at SchneidersLaden's Kottbusser Tor showroom. This workshop was perfect for synth nerds looking to explore the theoretical concepts behind ACL’s high-quality analog modules.

With in-depth discussions and hands-on demos of ACL’s impressive modules, it was a unique chance to connect with fellow enthusiasts and get into the finer details of modular synthesis. A must-watch for anyone serious about modular gear!"
