Korg Wavestation A/D and SR with Analog Resonant Filter Patch For Sale

YouTube via 123synthland — June 18, 2010 — "Wavestation owners have often complained about the lack of a resonant filter in this synths voice architecture, but the effects section has a filter distortion effect with resonance that can be modulated by MIDI controller data. Not everyone knows how to do set this up, so we created a special patch for people who buy our Wavestations that makes good use of this feature and demonstrates the Wavestations ability to sound more like an analog synth. This patch is a useful starting point for creating your own patches with a similar filter effect. The patch on this particular A/D is located in RAM bank C, patch 49, and is entitled "hoover by TTI". The name Hoover refers to the classic analog synth sound used in many early 90s techno tracks, originally made on a Roland Alpha Juno synth. TTI, well, that's the abbreviation of our company name. :) This patch uses 2 filter effects. The modulation wheel is set up to sweep the cutoff frequency of the first filter and the aftertouch sweeps the cutoff of the 2nd filter. We programmed another variation of this patch (entitled "WavSeq by TTI") in RAM bank C, patch 48, that uses internal wavesequences along with a single filter effect controlled by the modulation wheel.

We are selling this particular Wavestation AD as well as an SR right now. - if anyone's interested, please email us at minime123 at onebox dot com."

Nyle Steiner Sythasystem Designs and Schematics to be Made Available

You might remember the Steiner Synthasystem restoration project from this post. David who runs Analogue Realities sent in the following to the SDIY list. I asked him if I could put a post up for those not on the list and he gave me the OK.

via David on the SDIY list:
"Here's a bit of good news to anyone interested in the Steiner Synthasystem. I've had a couple of long talks with Nyle and he said it would be fine to share what I'm doing. He'd like as many people as want to build his designs and enjoy them.

To that end, as I actually get PCBs and schematics that work, I'll post and share as I can. If there is enough interest, I'll put together PCB, panel buys, etc. Otherwise, I'll make the layouts and schematics available somehow.

Keep an eye on my blog over the next few weeks for updates, etc.

Thanks again to those who have given me some great help so far, you know who you are :) So, to those who I swore to secrecy, you don't have to keep quiet anymore.

My blog and website:

http://analoguerealities.blogspot.com/
http://www.xmission.com/~dingebre/index.html

I'm going to meet with Nyle next month (after I recover from a total knee replacement on Monday) and he said he'd go over the schematics to make sure I have the latest corrections and designs.

So, I guess it goes up a notch from here."

Update: Read how it all started in this post.
