Cwejman S1 MK2 semi-modular synthesizer

via this auction

"The Cwejman S1 Mk II is a semi-modular synthesizer with unique sound circuity. It is not just another copy of synthesizers from the past. Its high performance and flexibility not only give musicians the ability to create classic "vintage sounds", but also sounds that are completely unique and have never been heard before.

The Cwejman S1 is an instrument for the true musician that allows the freedom to shape the sound as needed. It is patchable for tremendous flexibility and has an open interface, so everything is immediately accessible - not hidden in submenus.

Semi-Modular Synthesizer
"Semi" modular means that all functions and modules (oscillators, generators, filters, etc.) are linked. The synthesizer is preconfigured, but the configuration can be changed at will. All signals can be used as sounds or modulation sources and all parameters: pitch, pulse width, volume, resonance, etc., can be modulated from any source. Imagine the creative opportunities waiting for you inside this instrument!

Warm and powerful sound
The most unique feature of the product is the sound processing circuits that produce the unmistakable Cwejman Sound: a warm, fat, and genuine analogue sound.

Sound quality is consistent and powerful, especially in the bass register. The Cwejman S1 has a distinct sound and packs enormous possibility in a compact package.

The Cwejman S1 sound circuits are unique, using a proprietary design. The sound is characterized by the same punch, bottom and consistent sound found in vintage analog treasures - but the S1 also has the ability to sound completely different."

Cwejman S1 MK2 Back in Production

The Cwejman S1 MK2 is back in production priced at 3500€ or roughly $4000. Curious if it will be the battleship green or off-white model below.

via Cwejman

"The S1 is a semi-modular, analogue monophonic synthesizer. It is easy to get started with since it is prepatched for optimal use of its sound producing possibilities and eliminates the need for external connections between modules during use. Each module can be disconnected and used separately, e.g. to control or be controlled by other instruments. This flexibility enables and simplifies experimentation with creation and reproduction of sound

Features
3 oscillators with seven waveforms
ring modulator
FM
sync
portamento
noise generator with three noise shapes
low pass filter with selectable 4 / 6 poles and quasi band pass mode
multi mode filter with selectable 2 to 6 poles and three modes
wide range envelope generators
master amplifier with build-in overdrive stage
LFO with seven basic waveforms and wide rate range
extensive modulation of, virtually, all synthesis parameters
build-in MIDI to CV/gate converter with 16-bit resolution
several parameters can be voltage controlled by external signals and, simultaneously, control external devices by the build-in MIDI converters voltage outputs (see Rear Panel)
The S1 is a stand alone instrument and the possibility with patching and integrating it into an external modular (or semi-modular) synthesizer makes it extremely flexible."

FIVE MINUTES WITH Cwejman S1 MKII Synthesizer System

Published on May 28, 2020 sonicstate

"A rare look at the Cwejman S1 MK2 system. Cwejman modules are hard to come by dues to limited production runs, but they are considered to be excellent instruments.
The twin filter routing of the S1 MK2 makes its quite flexible in terms of voicings for the 3 oscillators

Cwejman S1 Mk2 Samples via Vogelscheiss

Via AH. Some interesting and exotic samples. Trippy...

These are by no means fancy demos but as the Cwejman S1 Mk2 seems to be by
and large mysterious in the analog world I thought it might be fun to post a
little something:

http://vogelscheiss.com/sound/101505_cwejman_demo_famished_dog.mp3
Cwejman with Stylus RMX. Delay is PSP Audioware 608 Multidelay.

http://vogelscheiss.com/sound/100505_cwejman_demo_pseudo-pumptiness.mp3
All Cwejman. Delay same as above.

I'll try to do more demos later on. It really is a warm and great-sounding
synth.

"This listing is for a very rare Cwejman S1 MK2. This S1 was previously owned by Richard David James (Aphex Twin, AFX, The Tuss, Polygon Window, Caustic Window) and purchased from a dealer in the UK. All knobs and switches are intact and it sounds beautiful. Pains me to sell it but I have to fund other ventures.

Less than 100 made in Battleship Grey."

Analogue Solutions Telemark Meets Doepfer & Greets Kraftwerk

Telemark Easter Monday Fun.wmv

YouTube Uploaded by jakobsweb on Apr 25, 2011

"The wonderful Analogue Solutions Telemark filter modulated by 2 Doepfer A-155 sequencers, gate by Telemark, triggered by Cubase 6;
accompanied by a pad from the Roland JX 8-P, bass by A-100 modular and drums by Vermona DRM1 MKIII.
All done with a friendly wink at rezfilter who inspired me a lot .... (still waiting for my Oberkorn)"

Telemark meets Doepfer

Uploaded by jakobsweb on Mar 13, 2011

"This is a song made with my very new synthesizer Telemark by Analogue Solutions. It's semi-modular and thus goes very well with my other modular and semi-modular stuff. The intro sound is done with the Telemark as well as another later on. It has a great sounding 12db multimode filter.
The other stuff I used in this song are: two Doepfer A-100 systems, Cwejman S1 MK2, DSI Prophet 08, Vermona analog drums DRM1 MKIII, Moog Voyager ... and a lil' drumloop ... all arranged, mixed and mastered using Cubase 6 and some Waves plug-ins. Feel free and invited to comment or ask questions. Enjoy!

Here is a list of some of the Doepfer A-100 modules that I used in case you are interested:
A-111 (3x), A-108, A-140, A-141, A-143-1, A-143-2, A-143-3, A-183-2, A-121, A-110 (3x), A-188-1, A-130, A-131, A-138a, A-138b, A-138m, A-151, A-180, A-134 (2x), A-181 (2x)
The Telemark was modulated by Doepfer A-147 (VC-LFO) - 2 times via multiple.
The Cwejman's LFO was gate triggered by the Doepfer A-160 clock divider."

Cwejman S1 MK2: DJ Puzzle Examines A Semi-Modular Monophonic

YouTube via DjPuzzle73
"DJ Puzzle, known to his parents as Jason Donnelly, starts this video off by pronouncing one of the most awkward looking brand names in synthesis before showing us how to make a sine wave bassline with the Cwejman S1 MK2.

I made a sine wave bassline in second grade art class out of glue, macaroni, and glitter, but if you prefer to make them with semi-modular, monophonic, analog synths, you should probably stop reading this and watch the video.

Seriously, you have no choice because this is the last sentence."

Cwejman S1 MK2 SN 19-041

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated. 2021.09.23 - Cwejman S1 | Random*Source Serge Crocodile - when you give it a name

video upload by You Kill Years

"Here is a fairly structured (for me!) song, featuring primarily the S1 (sequenced by the serge); a Random * Source Crocodile panel (sequenced by the pyramid); some percussive elements (just a Serge VQVCF, pinged); and some noise & shimmer from the Cocoquantus & ADDAD112)."

via this auction

"One functional quirk is that the second adsr gets quite long at different knob settings than the first one does. Just a thing to be aware of as you dial them in.

If you are reading this, you are probably aware, but I'll say anyway: as it's a fully-analog instrument, the oscillators do not track as well as DVCO-based synths I've had. I calibrated it once when I first received it, and I've been satisfied from then for my needs. Note though that I've never had any drift problems with them—once the machine has warmed up, you are rock solid.

I have used this instrument quite a bit, and I will miss it a lot. I included a link to one of my videos with it" [above]

Jomox XBase 888 as a Sequencer w/ Cwejman S1 MkII

"Yes, the Jomox 888 (and 999) analog drum machine has a built-in MIDI sequencer. In this video we're sequencing the uber-powerful Cwejman S1 Mk2 semi-modular synthesizer. Love that filter! It is possible to change your sequences on the fly (with a little practice;), making the XBase a great performance piece.
