Radikal Technologies Acellerator Ad

via Shagghie aka the-high-sage

"The Accelerator is a polyphonic Synthesizer with eight powerful subtractive voices. Each voice consists of three oscillators, two multimode filters, 6 envelope generators, three voice LFOs and one section LFO. An additional noise source with independent multimode filtering and variable signal routing has been added for more sonic flexibility. A very nice balanced lightweighted keyboard with 61 keys, keyboard split option, aftertouch and velocity sensitivity completes the new synthesizer.
The Accelerator is perfectly prepared for your Live performances. A lot of synthesizers nowadays do not offer direct patch selection anymore. Instead of using direct access push buttons you have to dial in the desired patch and press enter. The Accelerator makes sound selection instantly available at your fingertips with dedicated patch select buttons. Furthermore, the unique program chain feature allows for programming a chain of programs that selects the correct patch automatically for you.
Another stunning new feature is the the built in 3D sensor. Movements of the keyboard are converted into Modulation data. This brilliant addition allows for controlling parameters like pitch, the filter frequency or modulation depths by lifting up or shaking the keyboard.
Do you love step sequencers and arpeggiators? The Accelerator would not be a Radikal synthesizer if we did not integrate some sequencing goodies. You can enter some notes into the step sequencer, transpose the sequences with the left hand while performing a solo at the upper end of the split keyboard.
The powerful warm and crispy sound of this new synthesizer flagship will become the center of your keyboard setup. If you would like expand the Accelerator‘s sonic power even more you can get additional voices with our DSP expansion module. The DSP expansion does not only add extra polyphony to the Accelerator - you will also be able to use up to eight independent synthesizer sounds at a time with the integrated multimode feature.
- 3 oscillators with sweepable waveforms, time linearity modulation, phasemodulation, ringmodulation between Oszillator 2+3
- oscillator synchronisation - 6 envelope generators - 4 LFOs (3 voice, 1p art LFO) - noise with noise filter (multimode filter 12 / 24 dB) - independent amp EG for noise - 2 multimodefilter per voice - LP, HP, BP and
Notch with 12/24 dB per filter switchable - independent oscillator to filter feeds - serial and parallel filter configurations - 8 voices (expandable per DSP upgrade) - categorized randomize sound function
- monochrome graphic display with RGB backlight - modulationmatrix - 2 FX - arpeggiator
- step sequencer - split, dual, single and performance mode - 3D positioning sensor for parameter control - 61 lightweighted keys with channel aftertouch - 512 sound memories - floating point for enhanced dynamic range - expression pedal input - footswitch input - USB (USB MIDI class device) - two external inputs - two outputs - MIDI In, Out, Thru - headphones output

Rare Italian Preset Drum Machine by Gisman

via Davide:

"I think this is a pretty rare preset drum machine manufactured by Gisman (I've heard they were a brand of the more famous LOGAN). It is a full analog preset drum machine (imagine 1982) with some nice patterns and the always loved ultra cheesy analog breath. I didn't find any occurence of this on the internet apart for a twin set on ebay italy (still on sale, i think) exactly from my area... It uses a pretty annoying (as it is missing!) dual pedal to start/stop and fill-in. I did some wiring on a TRS jack to make it start :)"

Machine – An Elektron-Users community production - Benefit Album

Release Date: 9/17/2010

Machine is a unique compilation album and collaborative effort, produced by volunteers from within the Elektron-Users.com online community. All proceeds of the album will be donated to the world wildlife fund.

The album consists of 15 inspiring tracks of contemporary electronic music, crafted by artists from all corners of the world. The tracks and artists are united by an interpretation of the concept of machine, and the loud and proud use of Elektron musical instruments. The love of Elektron’s instruments has been a primary inspiration behind the album, and what united the Elektron-Users community to begin with.

Machine - a single word and concept that has guided the imagination of electronic mu-sicians for decades: one word that has captured the attention of electronic music mak-ers, from the early pioneers to the electronic luminaries of today. As relevant as ever, we have chosen this concept to provide a starting point for the Machine compilation album. The compilation seeks to investigate various aspects of this term, and bring some new interpretations to the table.

Machine is the second compilation crafted by the Elektron-Users community, and we hope it will bring as much joy as our first compilation, the 45 tribute did.

www.machine-project.com

Track List:
1. Koshi Mazaki ft Kirlian - Neuralnet 1.3
2. Nature Program - Growth Chart
3. Luke's Anger and Gosh - The Joy Of Sysex
4. Pokelok & Gys - Civilization
5. Beautiful Planet Earth - Random Order
6. Polyslax - Meet In Phase
7. Shane O'Donovan - My Mind Is Glowing
8. Reporter, On The Fly - Destijlled
9. Siesta Submarina - Organic Machine
10. tIB - Mitosis
11. Radek Rudnicki - Digital Garden
12. Rrine - Carpon Leak
13. Syl Kougaï - Atoll Mécanique Swing
14. Indigo Fire & Johnathon Doe - End of Line
15. Microluv - Monsoon Dream

The compilation consists primarily of electronic music but it isn't specific to any sub-genre.

Project History: The project grew out of a thread at Elektron-Users in which a number of users expressed interest in a musical collaboration on a more public and broad scale. Our community is comprised of many creative individuals of varied discipline, from professional musicians, software and hardware develop-ers, to visual artists and educators. The possibility of drawing from within that talent pool to create a musical product that would represent the richness and personality of our community while laying a serious and modern slice of electronic music on the world was too ripe to ignore and thus, Machine was born.

Song Selection: From the more than 70 tracks submitted by the community for consideration, a hand-picked music selection committee narrowed them down to the 15 tracks you will find on the Machine album. The tracks were evaluated on their musical integrity and their loud-and-proud use of Elektron instruments. Considerations were also made for collaborative efforts and meaningful musical exploration of the Machine concept.

Name Significance: The Machine concept, as project participants have come to understand it, can be read in depth in the accompanying digital liner notes and on the website at www.machine-project.com

About Elektron Music Machines: (taken from http://www.elektron.se/company)
We are Elektron. Our aim is to pioneer the development of electronic instruments by creating innovative, user friendly and magic sound sources. We have been in business since 1998 and are constantly moving forward. The sky is the limit.

The ambition
Making music should be fun. That is why our instruments are designed the way they are. They are made to encourage creativity and exploration. But functionality is not the only thing that is important to us. We want to create beautiful machines, perfect fusions of technology and aesthetics. An Elektron machine should offer the superior experience only a lovingly crafted piece of hardware can provide.


The team
The Elektron team possesses a wide range of competences. Our skills include electron-ic engineering, hardware and software programming, journalism, graphic design, inter-action design and music industry experience. More or less all of us are musicians. This makes us a dynamic company with a firm grasp of all aspects of product development. We know what it takes to make good machines.

The community
Our instruments can be heard on everything from underground releases to platinum selling albums. Needless to say, we are very proud of our user base. User initiatives like the Elektron-users forum, where people come together to discuss electronic music in general and Elektron machines in particular, make us extra proud. We are glad to be a part of a movement with an inviting and creative atmosphere.

Track Previews: All the tracks can be previewed via the website.

microKORG XL Patch Share Web App

via Shannon:

"I recently released a new web-app and thought you might be interested. This one is a patch sharing tool for the microKORG XL. You just plug in your XL and visit:

http://patches.remixia.com

You can search, click on a patch and have it instantly live on your XL. It is only works for the XL at the moment but in principle this would work with any synth that supports midi patch dumping. It's still a bit rough around the edges but should be usable."

Electronica EM-04

via this auction

"Electronica EM - 04. There is a one master oscillator in the instrument. Due to this oscillator a possibility of instrument's detuning in the process of operation is eliminated. This generator shifts a pitch of the instrument on an octave, "slalom-effect" and refines the tuning +/- 1/4. Because of split of the manual into 2 sections, the volume of each part may be adjusted.

Crumar Stratus polyphonic synthesizer organ hybrid

via this auction
"It's a 2 oscillator 6 note polyphonic analog synth that uses the same chips as the most sought after analog polysynths. There's also an organ section with 4 drawbars to determine volumes of each of 4 octaves. Warm filter. The LFO can do FM, wah or tremolo. The LFO section also has adjustable slope and delay. There's a button that causes the LFO to automatically do 1 octave square wave pitch modulation. The oscillator glide can be set to single or multi trigger. There's an oscillator pitch envelope as well. Otherwise, its a really cool, nice sounding synth."

YouTube via cirtcele | September 17, 2010

"Warning - This vid has some flashing lights in it, if watching Pokemon makes you foam at the mouth and lose control of your bodily functions, you probably should not watch this. The flashing is caused by glitchy beta version FX software i was using....which i totally love.

This patch starts simply with bindubba5 driving a VCO, to give an idea of the basic pattern. After that the VCO Tri out is plugged into the Mankato VCF and the jerkster is connected to the Makato's Cv input.
Apart from slowing down the main clock, only the pots on the Jerkster are adjusted during recording. Please forgive my obvious lack of musical talent and appreciate the wide range of sounds and obnoxiousness you can get from simply tweaking the jerkster."

New 2010 Vako Orchestron Disc - SOLO FEMALE VOICE

YouTube via optigandotcom | September 13, 2010

"Now available at http://www.optigan.com/shoptigan

Now available! A new release in our line of Vako Orchestron discs, SOLO FEMALE VOICE. It's unlikely that there will be sufficient demand to do a second run of 30 of these discs, so your best bet is to buy as many of these as you need while you can! Any future additional copies will most likely be done as one-offs, which are twice as expensive to produce, and thus will cost twice as much.

SOLO FEMALE VOICE is an entirely NEW sound for the Orchestron. Tara Busch of analogsuicide.com lent us her vocal cords once again for a sound similar to, but not exactly the same as the vocal sound on our Optigan "Minimalism" disc. This sound features a consistent "ahh" over the entire range. Please excuse my awful playing here, which is just a quick noodle to demonstrate the sound!

PLEASE NOTE: This disc WILL NOT play properly in an Optigan! They WILL play, but the sounds will NOT be mapped correctly to the keyboard- they will be mapped mostly haphazardly across the chord buttons. Please don't order this disc expecting to easily use it in an Optigan. In the future we will be porting the Orchestron sounds to the Optigan- please be patient! :)

Stay tuned for more Orchestron discs, both new and remastered titles!"

Steckmatrix "Studio Synthesizer" Modular Format Analog Synthesizer

via this auction

Googlish translation (note some modules are faulty):
"The construction with the Ghielmetti matrix is similar to the EMS Synthi A / Vostok

The "Studio Synthesizer" (his name in the documents) was built in the early 1980s for a music institute. His then the price was a good 5-digit range. It was built based on the format module system, which were, according to the designer and builder of some of the modules nor modified. This is now due to space and light overhaul of need (and lack of detailed electronic and time budget) as possible to a collector, analog synth lovers and / or music-electronics hobbyist sale. (... Ok to the highest bidder ...)

It consists of three modules ("Keyboard / Matrix", "Links: VCOs / LFOs, Right: VCF / ADSRs" and a solid metal frame with castors.

He is very elegant in the different parts and dismantled the frame, the modules and the frame are visible to Langen "handle" screws (left of the big picture) is connected.

Also inside the synthesizer is very loving, clean and professionally built.

The (most likely) complete the design, modification and construction documents are supplied in a DIN A4 Ordener. For example, there are even invoices, data sheets used chips, many clean-hands design drawings and even films for the exposure time while platinum production.

"If you don't know about the Musonics version, they were a very early version of the Minimoog, built after RA moog but still before the more common Moog Music. The musonics version is considered the best sounding version of the Minimoog ever made, with very raw analog sound, and I believe there are less than 100 in existence. In addition, there is a rare cv input board installed by CAE Sound (in San Mateo) giving you CV input (you can see the jack near the serial number on the back of the synth)."

Emu Modular for Sale

via Joe McGinty

"I am selling a gigantic Emu modular that belonged to Mark Lindsay (Paul Revere and The Raiders). After leaving the Raiders, Lindsay worked on television and movie soundtracks and commercials. This modular was used most notably for the Shogun Assassin soundtrack. There are over 70 modules in this system, including 11 VCOs, 8 Filters, and 8 Envelope Generators. There is a full list of modules below.

It has been in storage for 30+ years, and is in good to excellent cosmetic condition. There are no cables included, so at the moment it is not tested. NYC modular synth expert Steve Masucci will be testing the modules, and will have more information by Monday. You can find more details about Emu Modulars here.

Pictures are here: Emu Modular Pics [archived in this post]

We are not interested in breaking this apart, and are only selling the entire unit, 4 cabinets + keyboard.
This instrument is a museum piece, and an important part of analog synthesizer history. Please send serious offers only. If we don't get any reasonable offers it will go on eBay. We are not interested in any trades.

Item is in Piermont, NY, about 40 minutes outside of NYC and is available for local pickup only.

iOS 4.2 Supports CoreMIDI

via Appleinsider

"Support for CoreMIDI

The first beta of iOS 4.2 adds support for the CoreMIDI framework to the operating system's application program interfaces. This could suggest that future applications would allow new avenues for musical creation, and could also allow physical MIDI instruments connectors.

MIDI, or Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is an industry standard that allows electronic music machines to synchronize and communicate. With an adapter, a device like an iPhone could theoretically create and record sounds from a MIDI instrument."

MIDI for everyone! :) Why is this important? Currently MIDI devices like the Line 6 MIDI Mobilizer and Akai SynthStation25 require developers to use their proprietary SDKs to talk to their devices. This translates to more work for developers if they want to support different devices. Not just for the initial release of their apps but anytime there is an update to the SDK. With CoreMIDI they can just focus on it and let hardware manufacturers decide to support it or not. I'm also guessing KORG would be more likely to support CoreMIDI on the iElectribe vs. another company's SDK. We are getting very close to syncing iPads and iPhones with other gear folks. BTW, don't miss this post on The Missing Link.

in my opinion the qsr is the most expressive circuit bent instrument ever. not only because of the deep modulation matrix involved but because it has the smoothest sample loop points and triggering for legato playing. you'd be very hard pressed to find another synth that does circuit bent solo leads as well as this. it also works very well in multitimbral mixes. in addition it has one of the fastest midi response rates available in synths of today and yesteryears.

the qsr is something i make very rarely so if you want this be sure to bid. the qsr is in perfect operating condition with the production sticker stating that this was one of the very last few leaving the factory. that ensures that you are getting the newest qsr possible.

the following audio is played in realtime with no processing by an akai ewi. two notes at a time can be triggered from the wind controller"

This Second Sleep - Chimera Noyo Miniature

YouTube via arthurpainter | September 16, 2010

"http://thissecondsleep.blogspot.com/
A brief improv using my Chimera bC16 as the primary sound source. There's a bit of Sequential Circuits Pro rumble in the beginning. A dose of delay was also added to the mix."

A short haunting melody.AVI

YouTube via dolphinicus | September 16, 2010

"This is a short 3 minute video with not much more excitement within it rather than blinking LEDs. I loved the haunting sounding melody though from a single voltage controlled oscillator, going into a Voltage Controlled Amplifer whose amplitude were being controlled by a slowly rising Attack and slowly falling Release.
A little bit into it, I bring in a simple single VCO 'bassline' of sorts, that's being played by my 4094 based Eighth BITchen Deathlehem Sequencer. I hope you enjoy.
Ahhh yes - and both of the voices are going through a digital reverb effect for extra 'floor' beneath everything."

A BETTER Liquid HiHat 101010-AlmostCompleted-Sept1510.AVI

dolphinicus | September 15, 2010

"Now - please do pardon my extreme excitement but I HAD to make this NEW video for the Deathlehem Liquid HiHat 101010, almost immediately.
Having both of it's voices running through separate VCAs which are each controlled by their own Attack Decay envelope generators - I heard sounds that I had never imagined POSSIBLE from this thing! :O
Completely patchable in any way that you wish, the 6 oscillators and 4 of the 8 x XOR Gates are beyond the imagination's capabilities in noise sounds that can be made.
More coming, in the future, from my Deathlehem 101010 Noise Machine. :)

Whilst I think of it: all info. on this new design can be read at the forum at:
