Synthétiseur modulaire : par où commencer ? Solution n°2 - Analogue Solutions Tereshkova / Vostok

Published on Jul 3, 2013 modularsquare·49 videos

"Vous désirez un synthétiseur modulaire mais vous ne savez pas par où commencer ? Il existe plusieurs solutions, dont des systèmes prêt à l'emploi comme le Tereshkova et le Vostok de chez Analogue Solutions.

Ces systèmes sont quasiment identiques et sonnent exactement pareil. Les seules différences sont les suivantes :

Le Vostok dispose d'une matrice comme on en trouvait sur les vieux synthétiseurs EMS, qui permet de créer des connections entre les modules à l'aide de "pins" en se passant des câbles. Intérêts ? Simili sauvegarde du patch en cours, économie de câbles, simplification visuelle (on évite l'effet spaghetti).

Le Tereshkova se passe de la matrice mais rajoute à la place un LFO, 2 VCAs, et 2 multiples.

Lequel choisir ? Ça dépend de vous, si vous désirez le système le plus complet partez sur le Tereshkova, si vous cherchez un système pré-patchable pour aller plus vite sur scène par exemple, le Vostok est sans doute pour vous.

Novation Bass Station IIs on eBay

"http://www.nevadamusic.co.uk/piano-ke... Chris from Focusrite Novation runs us throughthe main features of the ultra cool Bass Station II. Fat analogue synth sounds pour out of this wonderful keyboard and as well as being easy to use, it feature USB and MIDI for a complete studio solution. Bass Station II is an analogue mono-synth based on the classic original Bass Station but updated for the requirements of the contemporary keyboard player. The Bass Station has two filters, two oscillators plus a third sub-oscillator, it provides patch save facilities and has a fully analogue effects section. Add-in a step sequencer, arpeggiator, full sized keys and a powerful modulation section and you have the makings of a synth that is built for bass, but capable of so much more.

Bass Station II is an analogue mono-synth specifically designed for bass, but with a sound-engine that is versatile enough to kick out sharp leads and crisp arpeggios. It brings the best elements from the original Bass Station into a brand new design with re-worked modulation, effects, filters and more - it has all the advantages of the original Bass Station, but with a much, much bigger sound. The signal path is pure analogue - including the effects section, whilst the hardware has been laid out in modules with dedicated pots, switches, sliders and buttons for all major parameters. Critically, you can store and recall patches on Bass Station II, which comes with 64 killer factory presets, space for a further 64 of your own sounds within the unit, and furthermore you can then store additional patches on your computer."

"http://www.nevadamusic.co.uk/piano-ke... Chris from Focusrite Novation creates a track using the Novation Bass Station II and the Launchpad S grid controller. Being a monophonic synth, Chris uses midi to record note information then plays it back to the Bass Station so he can tweak the sound. Then it gets recorded as audio in a clip on the Ableton software so the Bass Station can be free'd up to produce another sound. This is a great way of recording as its both hands on and very creative. The Bass Station allows for experimentation which is hard to do within software as well as teaching your ear how the different controls effect the sound, LFO's, oscillators and filters etc, a great lesson for all the plug in musicians. If your into computer music, you owe to yourself to experience a real analog synth and now with midi and USB connectivity it easily works with software without old school CV issues. Destined to become a modern classic, there's no better place to find your own sounds and blend the best of the old with the new. Affordable, real and fun.

Arturia updates Oberheim SEM V and Wurlitzer-V Analog Classics

"GRENOBLE, FRANCE: music software and hardware company Arturia is proud to announce availability of Oberheim SEM V 1.1.6 and Wurlitzer-V 1.0.5, the latest updates to its software recreations of the classic Oberheim Synthesizer Expander Module® and Wurlitzer EP 200A electric piano...

These free updates bring performance, stability, and MIDI improvements to two of Arturia’s most popular Analog Classics, the Oberheim SEM V and Wurlitzer-V, respectively released to critical acclaim in 2011 and 2012. The best just got a whole lot better!

Using Arturia’s TAE® (True Analog Emulation) technology, Oberheim SEM V faithfully reproduces the analogue warmth and ingenious interface of the classic Oberheim Synthesizer Expander Module® (SEM) to which it owes its inspiration and name. Created by legendary synth designer Tom Oberheim back in 1974, the dual-oscillator SEM was originally conceived as a way of beefing up weaker-sounding compatible analogue monosynths of the time before becoming a sought-after sound in its own right — so much so that its American creator came up with a series of successive SEM-based instruments, first pairing up two SEMs with a 37-note keyboard and a simple analogue sequencer to form the Two Voice, Oberheim’s first compact, programmable, polyphonic synthesizer in 1975, followed by the larger Four Voice (featuring four SEMs) in 1976 and enormous Eight Voice (eight SEMs) in 1977. Though these instruments were groundbreaking, polyphony was achieved with multiple SEMs so each voice/module had to be programmed independently, which was quite a daunting task — even by somewhat shaky Seventies standards!

But that was then, this is now. Today, Arturia’s eight-voice, MIDI-controllable, multitimbral Oberheim SEM V software solution brings many more truly 21st Century developments to the table — or even desktop (or laptop)! Additional ARPEGGIATOR, PORTAMENTO, SUB OSC, LFO 2, OVERDRIVE, CHORUS, and DELAY parameters, plus an in-depth Modulation Matrix module, all combine to considerably widen its sonic palette and appeal above and beyond merely mirroring the original Oberheim SEM hardware. Oberheim SEM V valiantly does that, too, of course — right down to replicating the behaviour of Oberheim’s original multi-SEM synths’ specific voice assignment and triggering, thanks to its advanced ‘fold-out’ 8-Voice Programmer, for example.

Arturia has taken a different approach with Wurlitzer-V, however. Unlike traditional sampling libraries, its embedded physical modelling engine readily reproduces the agreeable acoustic properties of the well-known Wurlitzer EP 200A electric piano’s musically distinctive reeds, key action, and amplification characteristics by ‘constructing’ played notes in real time. In doing so, it realistically recreates a staple sound of the Seventies in a cost-effective performance package fit for 21st Century compositions.

Yet those beloved bright and overdriven ‘Wurly’ sounds so ingrained in popular music culture thanks to artists as musically diverse as The Beatles, Supertramp, and Marvin Gaye are as much down to a creative combination of admirable amplification, mic placement par excellence, and precision processing, with multiple analogue chorus, phasing, and tape echo units often being used to fashion a deeper, luscious tone. Which is exactly why Wurlitzer-V effectively places its users in an authentic-sounding Seventies-style recording studio, complete with classic tube amp emulations, modelled mics, and stompboxes galore — everything needed to achieve that vintage vibe, in fact. But that’s not all. Alongside additional in-depth performance parameter controls, Wurlitzer-V also lets users choose between three output modes — Studio, Stage, and Rotary, each with a distinctly different sound.

Anyone wishing to transport those tricky still-sought-after sounds of the Seventies screaming and kicking into the convenience of present- day DAW-based workflow simply owe it to themselves to check out Oberheim SEM V 1.1.6 and Wurlitzer-V 1.0.5 — now better than ever, thanks to those latest updates!

Oberheim SEM V and Wurlitzer-V can each be bought from the Arturia online store (http://www.arturia.com/evolution/en/buy/online-shop.html) as software downloads for €99.00 EUR/$99.00 USD or as boxed versions for €119.00 EUR/$129.00 USD.

Existing Oberheim SEM V and Wurlitzer-V users can download the latest updates for free from here: http://www.arturia.com/evolution/en/downloads/updates.html"

NAMM 2013: KOMA Elektronik announces the RH-301 Rhythm and Utility Pedal!

Published on Jan 19, 2013 KOMA Elektronik·36 videos

"KOMA Elektronik announces the RH-301 Rhythm and Utility Pedal!
New pedal features master clock with tap tempo, versatile LFO, envelope generator, MIDI and 14-point CV patch bay.

Berlin based musical instruments manufacturer KOMA Elektronik are very happy to announce a brand new pedal: the KOMA RH-301 Rhythm Workstation / Utility Tool! The RH-301 is KOMA Elektronik's solution for a problem many musicians are struggling with: analog and digital equipment that needs to run side by side in sync without running out of control, which is not always an easy task! That is why KOMA decided to build a 'Master Sync Station' that helps electronic musicians get the most out of their equipment by properly syncing (a large amount of) devices in many different ways and add some cool tricks along the way...

Master Clock
The beating heart of the pedal is the master clock, of which the tempo can be set by turning the tempo knob, by tapping a tempo on the tap button, by syncing it to MIDI or to an external CV clock signal. Besides the normal clock output the user can also divide the signal with the Divisions knob and send a faster or slower clock signal via the two Division Outputs. The generated clock signals can be passed on via CV with the two Clock Outputs, two Division Outputs or via the MIDI Output. An incoming MIDI signal can also be passed through via the MIDI Through and Out jacks.
LFO
The second feature of the RH-301 is the LFO, which can be synced to the master clock or run freely from 0,25 Hz to 260 Hz in five different shapes: sine, triangle, square, S&H and noise. This means the pedal can also be used as an oscillator, when the user turns the LFO up into the audible ranges. When the LFO is in Sync-Mode the user can choose the same divisions as the divisions of the master clock. The LFO has two separate outputs on the patch bay: LFO Out and LFO Inverted Out. All the features of the LFO are also controllable via control voltage, the pedal boasts CV inputs for LFO Speed, LFO Reset and LFO Symmetry.
Envelope Generator
The third feature of the pedal is an Envelope Generator that can be easily synced to the master clock as, or run in loop mode. Besides the normal controls for Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release the pedal comes with a Range knob to set the range of the envelopes created. The Envelope Generator comes with a normal Envelope Output, but also an Inverted Output. The Envelope Generator can be triggered by an external Gate CV Source through the Envelope Gate Input.
Besides all these features, the RH-301 also comes with a built-in KOMA Elektronik sensor, which has a separate CV Output on the patch bay as well.. Plenty of functions to get creative with, because no matter what your setup is, digital or analog or all mised together, if you use a Modular synthesizer, DAW, drum computer, synthesizer or KOMA's own BD-101 and FT-201 effect pedals, the RH-301 is a effective tool to make sure they all walk in line!

The RH-301 will be on display and ready for testing at NAMM'13 at booths 1170 in Hall E (Analogue Haven) and 6735 in Hall A (Big City Music).

MRSP: To Be Announced! The RH-301 will be available in the beginning of Q2 of 2013 at KOMA Elektronik dealers worldwide and directly from KOMA Elektronik's webstore at www.koma-elektronik.com."

Modded Roland TR-606 Vintage Analogue Drum Machine SN 091900

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated. via this auction
"This unit has been modified (Similar to Kenton / Analogue Solution's Mods) to include:
Seperate outputs for each drum sound (Run each sound into a seperate channel on your mixer for perfect EQ & Recording or each sound into different effect units!)
1/4" input jack for remote On/Off (e.g. footpedal control - perfect for solo artists playing keyboards or guitars!)
Isolated On/Off switch (No more accidentally switching off the unit when fading the volume out!)

The TR-606 is a fantastic little drum machine that was sold along side the legendary TB-303. It was designed small, light and compact, which to me makes it The Choice for live performances over its big brothers the TR808 & TR909. The unit itself has the ability to be used for a Din Sync controller as well as having 2 CV/Gate triggers, making it a perfect tool for bringing out more in any analogue synth!"

Stay in Sync

via Innerclock Systems

"Back in 2009 when the Original Sync-Lock was in the early prototype testing phase we had nothing like our new Sync-Gen II software available and we based our hardware conversion design on raw audio pulses because we knew we could guarantee 100% sample-accurate, external tempo-sync with zero-latency regardless of computer platform or host DAW application.

One minor drawback in generating sync using this method is the difficulty in providing seamless transport control.

Stopping the DAW means the audio pulses also stop causing any connected slave-sync devices to be left ‘hanging’ waiting for the next sync pulse.

As a workable solution we added a Footswitch Input on the Original Sync-Lock. Simply pressing the Footswitch once forced all slave-sync devices to Stop and Reset themselves ready for the next DAW Start command.

Necessary, totally functional but not entirely elegant.

In designing our new Sync-Gen II software we had two primary goals:-

Sample Accurate and Zero Latency External Tempo Sync

Seamless DAW Integration

At the end of June 2011 after more than eighteen months of intense software development, extended hardware trials and exhaustive real-world DAW testing we feel we have exceeded our original expectations.

Transport is now fully integrated and seamless between the DAW host application and your external hardware via Sync-Gen II.

Force Reset is now ancient history. The DAW Spacebar runs the show.

Rather than leaving the Footswitch Input to waste on the Original Sync-Lock we decided it could be put to better use.

The Original Sync-Lock Analogue Pulse Output generated fixed 16th Note 20ms Positive 5v DC Pulses to drive external sequencers, synthesizer EGs and drum-trigger inputs. We felt this was the most useful rhythmic interval to drive analogue clock-driven arps and step-sequencers too.

A factory hardware update to the Original Sync-Lock now provides a wide range of quantized, rhythmic pulse intervals – 1 : 1/2 : 1/2T : 1/4 : 1/4T : 1/8 : 1/8T : 1/16 – and these are simply selected by holding down the Footswitch. At the beginning of each new bar if the Footswitch is held down, the next rhythmic interval is selected.

Email us at info@innerclocksystems.com for more information on updating your Original Sync-Lock.

Korg Rhythm KR-55B (expanded KR-55) analog drum machine

via this auction

"This is the darker, more experimental and edgy version of the KR-55 that is all over the early Vince Clark stuff. While the pop / rock / disco material that the KR-55 excels at is still adequately represented here, you also get a lot of progressive / alternative / jazz beats with odd time signatures. The 55B also has twice as many presets as the 55. The 55 and 55B have very low noise floors, and the quality of sound is breathtaking.

This particular unit has a damaged plastic housing, which is clearly visible in the photos. However, only the plastic housing is damaged. Every button, dial and switch functions and feels great. No scratchy pots, no buttons that have to pressed a little harder than others...

As you can see in the photo below, there are easily-accessible trim pots to tweak out the sound to your heart's content. Highly Liquid and Analogue Solutions have solutions for retrofitting MIDI.

Service Manual/Schematics, Owner's Manual, and some notes on DIYing a DINsync solution will be included on CD-R."
