SEAMUS Goes Retro & Modular Format Chart

The October 2007 SEAMUS newsletter goes retro. click here for the pdf. It includes a full analog modular round up written by John Loffink of The Microtonal Synthesis and The Wavemakers Synthesizer web sites. Pictured in the article: Modular formats, left to right: Mattson Mini Modular, Eurorack (Plan B), FracRack (Blacet), Serge, Buchla 200e, MOTM, Moog (Synthesizers.com), Modcan A, CMS, Wiard 300. Be sure to click the image for the full size shot.

From the Editor, Kurt Stallmann:
"As we celebrate 50 years of musical computing we can’t help but notice that the analog technology that many predicted would be outmoded and replaced still hasn’t died! Not only that, in recent years, there has been a resurgence of interest in analog instruments in popular music and among many young instrument builders. New designs of analog modular synths have been released, some of which hybrid sophisticated digital control with analog sound engines (like Buchla’s recent release of the 200e). It is along these lines that we asked Chapman Welch to conduct an interview with German improviser/composer, Thomas Lehn, whose sole setup consists of a classic analog Synthi. We also asked the Austin-based Wavemaker specialist and analog enthusiast John Loffink to give us a quick overview of a few current analog synth makers. Going even farther back, and in response to our July interview with Max Mathews, David Mooney contributes an article tracing the history and influence of Henry Cowell’s Rhythmicon on a current generation."

Update via John Loffink: "Article has a typo, mentions Analogue Solutions as having Bode FS and Putney tribute modules, should be Analogue Systems. That will be corrected in an errata."

Visual Tour of Native Instruments KORE 2

Create Digital Music has an extensive look at KORE 2.

"Native Instruments says KORE 2 is a ground-up recode of the first KORE, with a new development team in place. It also involves a substantially redesigned hardware interface, minus the audio features but with some important improvements. It’s too early to judge the full outcome of these moves without more hands-on time, but we can at least show you what the results look like and some of the new features."

Rhodes Chroma Voice Board Test Controller

"This is a preliminary description of a Rhodes™ Chroma™ voice card test and repair fixture that I have built. It is a hand wired prototype; no circuit boards have been designed, and there are currently no plans for production, although that may change. Meanwhile, if you work on lots of Chromas, you can build your own from these schematics." [link]. Note this device was built by Dave Wilson of the New England Synthesizer Museum.

RAJ MUSICALS SAARANG

images via this auction
"VINTAGE Electronic Tanpura Synthesizer DELUXE SAARANG RAJ Musicals
- Made by: Radel Systems , Bangalore
- Type No. TBR6
-SI. No. 266

Runs on 6 C batteries and for having such a small speaker can get painfully LOUD! Radel Saarang Electronic Tanbura

The 'Saarang' produces the plucked sound of a conventional stringed tambura (tanpura) used for classical Indian music. The sound is produced electronically without the use of any strings. The 'Saarang' plays by itself and does not need a person to play it.

Pitch tunable by more than octave and covers the range of male as well as female voices - from lower A to higher C (lower 6 to higher 1, Karnatic system or lower White 6 to higher White 7, Hindustani System).

The Tanpura
The Tanpura is a four to six stringed fretless instrument made of wood, and usually combined with gourd. It provides the performing artist(s) with a tonic reference and enriches the background with its unique harmonic drone. The strings are tuned in a manner that emphasizes the tonic and the dominant notes of the raag. The bridge is slightly curved to not only provide a buzzing sound (as the strings are plucked), but also to generate various harmonics that enhance the tonal quality of the instrument. The size (gourd and neck) of the instrument may vary depending on whether the artist is an instrumentalist, male vocalist, or a female vocalist. Tanpura was most probably included as a part of a classical music ensemble since the seventeenth century.

The Tanpura player plucks the strings one at a time, in a steady, repetitive, almost orderly manner, using the index and middle fingers.

These days "electronic" tanpuras <../elect/elect.html> have become commonplace, since they do not require a human player, are less expensive, simpler to tune, require minimal maintenance, and are easily portable. Many Indian professional musicians (including world renowned artistes like Pandit Debu Chaudhuri and Pandit Aashish Khan) are now touring without a tanpura player and are using the Riyaz Raagini <../elect/elect.html> sampled electronic tanpura machine as it sounds so very realistic. However, some artists prefer a natural instrument to an electronic one when available, and sometimes combine the two types. Electronic Tanpuras are, naturally, used by many students for practice as in this way the student can practice for long periods of time as and when needed without the need for a person to sit and play tanpura for them.

Electronic musical instruments are defined as instruments that synthesize sound from an electronic source. The origins of electronic music can be traced back to the work of Hermann Ludwig Ferdinand Von Helmholtz the German physicist, mathematician and the year 1860. While many instruments were developed in years to follow it was not till The Vacuum Tube Era (1915-1960) and Integrated Circuits time, that real muscle made it to world of electronic musical instruments. With travelling Indian musicians, good electronic instruments have been of great help both in performances as well as in Riaz (practice sessions).

David Courtney, musician, music theorist, divides these instruments into 3 classes, Shruti Generation, interments that replaced drone instruments like the Surpeti. Electronic "Surpetis" have been in use for about 20 years. In recent times the more refined Electronic Tamburas have become very popular. The 2nd generation are the Lahara Machines that provide repeating melodies to accompany drum solos. The 3rd category is the Theka Generation, or the Drum Machines, devices that provide sound comparable to the Tabla."

Udpate via Loscha in the comments:
"I have one of these, and it sounds like this:
http://www.loscha.com/music/Loscha-Tambura_Test.mp3
Well, almost the same. Mine is the "base" model.
The pcb look like this;
http://www.loscha.com/music/saraang-pcb.jpg
http://www.loscha.com/music/saraang-pcb-marked.jpg

I am adjusting an modulating the notes pitches in real time with this track.

The unit arpeggiates the tones in a 6 note sequence, and the notes are fixed, the root note on my unit has no fine tuning, only coarse.
You have notes on steps 1, 3 4 and 5 of the pattern. You can only turn on and off notes, and each note has a certain range, constrained by traditional patterns.
I think the Deluxe unit has 5 notes in the sequence, my base unit has only 4.

I corresponded with the creator a while ago, and this is the main section of what he wrote

'At the outset, please accept our apologies for this delayed response. For some unknown reason, we were unable to connect to the site referred to in your mail and we were not in a position to figure out which model you possessed. We were able to connect today and now know that you possess an obsolete version of the Saarang that went out of production seven years ago. We seem to have destroyed all the data connected with this model and are not in a position to furnish them to you. Considering that you are an electronics engineer, the following explanation should help you in trying out whatever modifications you may want to perform.

The four strings are synthesized through four oscillators based on 555 Timers. These signals are amplitude modulated through a capacitive charging and discharging circuit comprising two transistors, BC547 (NPN) and BC 557(PNP). Each of the four PNP transistors is triggered on by a
zero going pulse applied to its base, which results in an electrolytic capacitor getting charged to a peak value. This voltage acts as the amplitude modulating voltage for the square wave input. The triggering of the PNP transistors is controlled by a control circuit comprising another 555 timer, a counter and a demultiplexer.

We hope that this explanation is of use to you. With regards,

G. Raj Narayan'

My Tambura is one of my favourite things in the whole world, and it is in my top 5 musical things I'd never part with if I had to sell up everything I owned. "

Roland System 100 Model 102

images via
this auction
"The Expander 102 section is a keyboard-less version of the 101, designed to stand upright and behind the main Synthesizer 101. More than one Expander 102 can be added to make your system fatter and fatter! The Expander is identical to the Synthesizer except that it replaces Portamento/Glide effects with a Sample-and-Hold feature for the LFO, the Noise gen. Is replaced by a Ring Modulator, and the A-440 tuning osc. Is replaced by weak/strong sync inputs and a mix-in jack. The Expander is an excellent way to add more oscillators and synth effects (the s&h and ring-mod) to a System 100. The oscillators can be synced if you have both modules. The 101 & 102 are already internally patched and ready to produce sounds, but that can be bypassed by external patching.""

"Yamaha TG33 Tone Generator with Dynamic Vector Synthesis
Original Yamaha Power Supply
3 Hard-To-Find Voice Data Cards:
VC3301 - Stage Selection
VC3302 - Studio Selection
VC2203 - Shofuku (I may be wrong about the number on this one)


The TG-33 sound module is a slightly enhanced key-less version of the SY-22. It is a digital synthesizer that employs frequency modulation (FM) synthesis combined with low-fi (12-bit) ROM samples. However, this machine is not low quality (especially for the electronica-oriented musician). Its preset sounds are a bit thin, however using the joystick controller you can manipulate and combine the 12-bit samples with the any of the 256 FM vector voices. This gives it a range of tone and sound that is as dynamic and mysterious as other vector synths such as the Korg Wavestation and ProphetVS.

Also available is a drum kit, effects, 8 part multitimbrality for layering sounds and 32 note polyphony! Definitely a powerful little beast that can create pretty nice sounds with lots of motion and character. With its wide range of sonic possibility, the TG-33 has what it takes to create unique sounds that will keep you and you're music sounding a little different from the rest!"

Halloween Modular Track via Drew

Via Drew on the AH list. I asked him if I could put this up here and he gave me the a-OK.

"Happy Halloween -

Last year I set up a big modular patch (Blacet & Metalbox), ran the mess thru some long delays for extra spaciness and left the thing running (at high volume) while we took the kids out trick o' treating. As we walked down the road I could still hear it 8 houses away :)

There are several repeating elements in it, but most everything was clocked by separate LFOs, sequencers, etc. Before I shut it down, I recorded about a half hour of it. Here's an mp3 (36mb):

AudioWeevil07 First batch released 31st Oct 2007

"The AudioWeevil has finally undergone an upgrade to 07 version.

The heart of a Weevil is the two lofi squarewave Oscs that get quasi-ringmodded together for crash'n'scream sounds. What we do with the AudioWeevil version is to take an input audio signal and turn it into a squarewave that can then replace one of the internal Weevil Oscs - so your squared input gets ringmodded with one of the internal Oscs for supremely gnarly ringmod and tremolo effects. The effect works best with monophonic sounds - guitar picking or keyboards - the sounds are extreme!

This new version ups the stakes by building in a mixer stage which allows blending of the Dry audio, Squared Audio (a very overdriven version of the dry input) and Ringmod (Weevil) output before it is passed through a powerful resonant LowPass filter. And now there's also a modulation LFO to sweep internal Osc1 and the filter cutoff. This LFO has two speed ranges (right up into audio rates which work great for filter modulation) and three waveforms - ramp, tri and sawtooth. The LFO is one of the nicest features of these new Weevils!

Another fun feature is the internal mini-amp/speaker. This allows you to make noise on the move and the sound is pretty different to what you get from the line-out, so there's possibilities for nice creative recording experiments. And it can chuck out quite a hefty sound - though, be aware that it can chomp through batteries pretty quickly when the amp is driven hard..." click here for more info including more details, images and sound samples.

NASH THE SLASH


YouTube via TheLittleDevil. Sent my way via LDT: "this is from 1978 or so. He plays electric mandolin and violin but also used back then lots of analog goodies and beat boxes. His main keyboard was a Crumar Multiman which he controlled with some sort of pedal arrangement."

Spot the synths. Be sure to check out a bit of each if you can't make it through the full videos. There's a bit of a Halloween vibe going on in Parts 2-4, so enjoy.

Video Descriptions:
NASH THE SLASH & FM live 1985 part 1
The success of Nash The Slash's 1984 album 'American Bandages' (he would receive a CFNY-FM CASBY Award nomination for single of the year) that brought about a reunion of his old band FM -- Martin Deller and Cameron Hawkins make cameos on the album. Slash needed to tour the album but double bills with The Spoons seemed ill-suited for the bandaged one's eclectic noodlings, so FM hit the road doing their old standards and Nash doing his proven solo material.

Nash's label, Quality, were impressed enough to offer FM a reunion album and so 'CON-TEST' was released with a promising single/video "Just Like You" to establish the '80's FM as Canada's answer to The Cars. Alas, as was FM's karma, Quality decided to eliminate its recording division just as 'CON-TEST' was gaining momentum and the album hung in limbo. MCA records jumped in to save the day and re-issued the album without missing a beat but the momentum had been lost. Martin Deller had decided he'd had enough and decided to finally retire and spent more time with his family.

NASH THE SLASH RISES AGAIN 1978 part 2 - 4
This is a rare find!!
NASH THE SLASH didn't even know this still exsisted and I got this copy from an old beta tape loaned to me by his brother.
This was before the bandages so I have obscured Nash's face.
I hope you all enjoy!!!
A TV Ontario special, entitled 'Nash The Slash Rises Again', featuring paintings by Robert Vanderhorst set to the music of Nash The Slash aired in 1978. Live performances by the two artistes soon followed and included a one hour "pulsed, multi-screen audio-visual show" entitled 'Bombardier', (a reworking of a similar project from 1976). Nash would release musical segments of this production on his first two solo records, including the first EP, 'Bedside Companion' (1978). Robert Vanderhorst's cover art may have been instrumental in starting the mystery of Nash The Slash's appearance by deliberating obscuring his face.

Yamaha AN200 Demo

I finally got around to listening to the Yamaha AN200 demo linked to in this previous post. The demo mp3 is being hosted on a file share site here. It took forever for me to download on a cable connection so I thought I'd put it up on Twango for others to enjoy without the wait. It is probably the most diverse demo of a synth I have heard to date. At first I questioned the auction's claims to the AN1X being designed to emulate the TB-303, Prophet-5 and Minimoog, but you can clearly hear the emulations and more in this demo. Hit play and check out the other posts for the day. This marks number 40! Must... take... a... break...
