Doepfer Announces A-171-2 Voltage Controlled Slew Limiter II

"Module A-171-2 is a voltage controlled slew limiter with a lot of additional features beyond a simple slew limiter. It's mostly a licensed copy of Ken Stones VCS which is in turn based on the Serge VCS.

These are the most important features:

Manual control of the Slew-Up time
CV control of the Slew-Up time with polarizer
Switch for linear/exponential shape of the rising section of the response curve
Manual control of the Slew-Down time
CV control of the Slew-Down time with polarizer
Switch for linear/exponential shape of the falling section of the response curve
CV Up and CV Down sockets are normalled
Signal input (the "to-be-slewed" signal)
Trigger input
V/Oct input
End output
Cyle on/off (when "on" the End output is internally connected to the Trigger Input)
Output
LED display

A detailed description of the module will follow soon. Until then the explanation on Ken Stone's website Ken Stones VCS can be used as a preliminary information. "

EML 200 ElectroComp Synth - filter & reverb fun

Published on Dec 12, 2012

"Just some ambient sounds to sample from the original EML 200.

...what a lovely sounding instrument.
The reverb and filters are unusual but give it great character.
And the switching circuit is pretty cool too.

For the record. This patch is very simple.
It uses 3VCOs, a Sample & hold, the switch & 2 filters.

The EMW 200 has replaced the mic section on the original EML200 with a LFO.
Very useful for modulating the switch.

Let this one develop. There are some really nice timbres in it.

"This is day one of me messing with my system after trading out my tempest for a small euro rack system. The Rene is sequencing the z3000 and 3 dotcom oscillators and there's a bunch of modulation going on with the clock and the filters. I'm really excited to have this full spectrum of sound as both systems show their strength and support each other quite nicely.

I filmed this all with a 5dmkii that I tried to hold steady but the shallow depth of field and close focus limitations led to quite a few "artistic" moments :)"

via this auction

"FEATURES:

16 faders to set the control voltage at each step
16-step or 8 x 2 (parallel) step mode
Sequential or RANDOM sequence mode switch
Gate assign bus. Each step can output a gate out 1 of 3 gate bus outs - this is great for sending gates to different synths or envelope generators at once.
2 channels of voltage outputs - 1 for the first set of 8 faders and a 2nd for the other set. This way, you can use your first set for pitch and your 2nd for filter cutoff, for example.
2 quantizers. Unlike most analog sequencers, this one quantizes its outputs so that it will easily play stepped pitches -its much easier sequencing 12 tone melodic parts when you don't have to fine tune every step but at the same time, the quantized outs on this sequencer have a much narrower pitch range than the other outs. Also, you should note that you might have to recalibrate either your synth or sequencer (or both) to one another if you intend to use the quantize feature or the quantized pitches might not be exact. This applies to all ARP Sequencers. Tthe unquantized outputs will provide extended output voltage range.
Skip/off/reset switch, button, with input for external control
Step button with jack
Position 1 out jack
Clocked gate 1 out
Start jack, stop jack, stop.start jack, trig/gate switch, start/stop button, footswitch out

JHS SD-1 Pro Rhythm

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

Rare analogue drum synthesizer from the late 70's from John Hornby Skewes (JHS). The SD-1 is a battery powered drum synth with sound shaping controls and a rubber pad which, when hit, triggers the analogue circuitry for an infinite variety of possible sounds from deep bass to high pitches to sweeping disco tones. It can be mounted on its stand to provide a drummer with a pre-determined sound of choice to augment his kit or it can be used as-is in a studio setting for hands-on tweaking. In the latter case this can provide huge amounts of sample material.

The controls are as follows:

- VCO 1 Freq.
- VCO 1 Square/Noise/Ring selection switch

- VCF Freq.
- VCF LP/BP/HP selection switch
- VCF Reso

- VCO 2 Freq.
- VCO 2 LFO/OFF/Squiggle (hf modulation) selection switch
- VCO 2 Modulation Amount to VCO1 or VCF

- Sweep VCO 1/2 Selection Switch
- Sweep VCO Direction/Amount
- Sweep VCF Direction/Amount
- Sweep Decay

- VCA Decay
- VCA Volume"

From JHS:

"The JHS Pro–Rhythm is a self contained drum synthesizer,featuring two V.C.O.s', a ring modulator, resonance control, L.F.O., white noise source, a sweep generator for oscillators, area V.C.A. Section. Thanks to it's advanced features and state-of-the-art circuitry, the JHS Pro Rhythm offers the modern percussionist an expanded form of electronic musical expression previously available only to guitarists and keyboard players. The control panel is rim mounted and designed for easy accessibility and fine adjustment, the control themselves are rationally laid out, and easy to operate. The Instrument is supplied complete with a chrome plated stand which is fully adjustable for height and synth angle. The drum head is a tough rubber pressure pad which gives good response and stick bounce. At certain settings it is touch-sensitive, responding differently to varying degrees of stick pressure. The casing is extremely sturdy pressed steel, finished in matt black. The instrument is powered by two 9 v (PP3) batteries, and is switched on by inserting a jack plug into the output socket. The Controls of the JHS Pro-Rhythm Drum -Synth are split into5 sections , which can be briefly summed up as follows, reading anti-clockwise around the rim of the instrument:

A. VCO1 this is the first oscillator and provides the main sound source.
B. VCF this is the filter which enables the player to add to or subtract from the harmonic content of the sound so as to alter its “colour”
C. VCO2 the second oscillator, which provides a choice between LPO (for modulation effects) and sine wave forms.
D. sweep this section generates and varies the rise and fall in the sound “envelope” as used in a lot of today's popular music.
E. VCA This section controls the overall decay time and overall volume. Only by constant experimentation can the musician build up his own individual repertoire of sounds and effects'"
