Korg Volca FM2 - Friday Fun Synth Jam with Delta CEP A and friends

video upload by sonicstate

"We got sent the new @Korg Volca FM2 , the original which we reviewed previously, but now has 6 voices instead of a mere 3, velocity response over MIDI (Yay!), 64 on board presets and Chorus and Reverb Effects as well as some other improvements -and the Radikal Technologies Delta CEP A - a beast of a digital synth, plus the good ol' Zoom MS70-CDR

Nick takes a look at the FM2, adds reverb and noodles away - enjoy!"

Radikal Technologies Delta CEP Set to Ship Next Week

DeltaRND Seq Published on Feb 13, 2019 Jörg Schaaf

"The Delta CEP A's LFO can trigger the ADSR envelope.That works even, when the LFO is set to. Each Random Voltage step will simultaneously create a gate signal. Just hold SHIFT and turn the ADSR section decay knob for a LFO-ADSR Assignment. The shift & decay combination will control the gate time of the LFO ADSR sync signal..

The RND signal is fed into the 1V/OCT input of the Delta's swarm oscillator and the swarm oscillators pitch quantizer is set to a major pentatonic scale.

The sequence starts with a single pitch because the LFO depth is set to 0.

I am using the EFFEXX effect module for modulated delay effects, phasing, reverb and filtering simultaneously in a serial configuration. I used the TAP function of the EFFEXX module to synchronize the delay effects. You can watch me adjusting the delay time after cranking up the LFO speed...

And last, but not least. I have good news. The first Delta CEP As will ship next week. So, the waiting time is over finally. I am very satisfied with our development efforts. Thank you guys for the patience. I hope, you will enjoy the result of our creation."

Radikal Technologies Delta CEP A - one synth oldschool minimal techno track

video upload by Wine&Synths

"When I started to produce music again last year, my old friend Jörg Schaaf was a true supporter and gave me a lot of motivation and inspiration with his extraordinarily creative mind.

So one day, shortly after I decided to get involved with hardware synths again, Jörg sent me one of his Delta CEP A test units for my personal enjoyment.

This video is my way to say thank you.

Delta is undoubtedly an astonishing little sound machine!

The most surprising thing during recording was, that I recorded my vocal as an mp4 on my Iphone. I just swapped it into Live and there was video! It’s not really predictable and every render is a little surprise. But it’s a really effective way to get rhythm into your videos!"

Radikal Technologies Announces DELTA CEP A & A2 VERSION 2 & NEW MANUALS

via Radikal Technologies

"We are happy to announce, that the new firmware release version of the DELTA CEP A and it’s successor, the DELTA CEP A2 is now online! New manuals have been written to make sure you benefit from all new features from the first moment. The manual contains a detailed update procedure. Beside enhancements for the user interface we added a performance step sequencer and full MIDI parameter control. The Desktop versions even sends all knob movements out."

New Radikal Delta Cep A First Audio Demo

Published on Jan 16, 2018 Jörg Schaaf

"Only for getting a first idea, how it actually sounds when you are running a little sequence into the Delta! I was actually checking the current state of the envelope generators. The for my most essential section is around 3:12 just after the section which is unfortunately clipped. Short, snappy sequencer sounds with really short envelopes. At the end I crank up the digital delay in a good way"

DeltaCepA Stranger Sounds

Published on Mar 1, 2018 Jörg Schaaf

"Stranger Sounds from the Delta Cep A

All the sounds are produced with a single Delta CEP A Synthesizer. I added one external step sequencer and the external sequencer was clocked with an external LFO. I also used a control voltage mixer to mix the modulation signals from the delta.

I added a little bit reverbration from Logic's Chromaverb and had fun to produce some bizarre visuals with the Kaleidoscope function of Final Cut Pro X and old video footage. And no - I did't take anything in to produce this bizarre shit."

Modwheel Morphing Delta CEP A

video upload by Jörg Schaaf

"Just bought a new MIDI keyboard for my Delta CEP A Synthesizer. I love to control the morphing with a modulation wheel. Here I am using to snapshots for the morphing. The second snapshot not only opens the filter. It also adds more oscillators to the swarm and adds detuning. I am working on a complete video tutorial about snapshot morphing and patch managment."

Soma Cosmos Delta Cep-A Friday Fun Synth Jam

video upload by sonicstate

"Just got the Soma Labs Cosmos Drifting Memory Station in for a look, and while we havent fully figured it out yet, we did find a nice setting for creating granular beds from the Radikal Technologies Delta Cep-A (which we have previously reviewed)

Hope this inspires you to hook up some gear and have a jam or noodle."

Polybrute and Delta CEP A - Friday FUN Synth Jam

sonicstate

"Very impromptu, jut before we box up the Arturia Polybrute to go back to the distributor (sniff...) One last noodle. Coupled with the Radikal Technologies Delta CEP A - a DSP based morphing synth with a big sound, and the ability to take a stereo input. Sadly this was lacking in the Polybrute."

Jörg Schaaf - Hypnotica Hypnotica

Published on Mar 9, 2018 Jörg Schaaf

"Tonight I tried to bring a little bit controlled random into a A-155 sequence. My approach is a little bit different from other setups. It uses one VCA, a noise source and a sample and hold module. Very important in this setup is also a quantizer for the pitch control voltage. I used the Delta Cep A quantizer for that and selected a minor pentatonic scale for my sequence. The output from the sequencer is fed into the VCA input and the VCA output connects to the 1V/Oct input of the oscillator. If you run the sequence you can already change the resulting melodies by changing the VCA level. You will realize, that lower pitched notes will get affected less than higher pitched notes. I like that behavior. Adding random is quite easy. One trigger line of the A-155 sequencer triggers the Sample and Hold Circuit. The noise is connected to the S&H probe input and the S&H output connects to the VCA control voltage input. Because of the quantizer, only matching notes are generated.

I added a bass sequence from the Spectralis Hybrid synth with Spectralis' internal step sequencer. Some steps are running with a probability of only 50% to get variations in the bass sequence too. On top of the two main sequences I added a little disturbance by triggering a chimes multisample I did last week. In order to get a more unrealistic metallic sound out of that multisample I set the envelope to a very short decay and send this through the hiphpass filter, put some random pan onto it and added a pitch modulation (vibrato). Logic ProX acts as the clock for the A-155 (via an Arturia Keystep) and for the Spectralis.

I could not resist to play some live notes on top of the backings. I played mainly the Accelerator, the DX-7 II and the D-550. I hope, you like it...

And yes - everything sounds just better with a couple of different delays. So I added them here too ;-)"

Sonic LAB: Delta CEP A Paraphonic Modular Review

Published on Jun 21, 2019 sonicstate

"The Delta CEP A is described as a Paraphonic Modular, and indeed that’s exactly it. With a Swarm Oscillator at it’s heart, it's got some clever DSP work going on. Indeed most of this synth is DSP based apart from the VCA and the Analog filter (there are also two digital filters)."

He said you can create a tone out of it without even connecting any cable, but how do you do that without out an audio cable? If you know, leave a comment!

Adding the RT-311 Swarm Oscillator to the DELTA CEP A sound engine!

video by Jörg Schaaf

'I describe in detail how the communication between the DELTA CEP and the Swarm Oscillator RT-311get established. After the connection and setup, the RT-311 follows the notes one plays via MIDI with the DELTA CEP A. That means, in paraphonic mode, the RT-311 plays chords instead of multiple oscillators with equal pitch."
