Analog polysynth keyboard split through the GHOST Pedal

video upload by Julia Bondar

"Effects make everything sound better, fatter and as dramatic as I like.
Exploring sonic realms with my Summit and the mystical GHOST Pedal by @Endorphines and @andrewhuang.
Splitting the keyboard with two soounds; weaving a tapestry of pure bass and processing the ethereal lead through the Ghost. I just hope to have more time to focus just on the work in the studio and take this sketch further."

Two Of Cups

IT IS BETTER TOGETHER

TWO OF CUPS – include samples in your live set. Two of them at once with a wide variety of CV-able features. Simply load one of 8 (!) banks each containing up to 24 samples for each of the two voices and off you go (unlock this feature with firmware 1.1!). Needless to say you can change the samples under CV and if needed – you can set up the trigger delay for each voice because that boy plays its sample so instantly and sample accurate with the with lightning speed. Breathe life and fresh sounds into your setup with a small footprint (6 HP) you would normally need to carry around a gazillion of gear to reproduce the sonic capabilities. Alternatively, use it the boring way and simply play drum one-shots off it.

Module's explanation by Wisdom Water.
No extra processing was applied in the sound demonstrations - the sound was recorded from GM output into line level directly."

"The Golden Master from Endorphin.es is a multi-band processor that takes inspiration from studio mastering and radio loudness units from the 1990s. It gives control over the EQ, compression, and mid/side processing of incoming audio.

Thanks to the 16-bit/96kHz audio fidelity, you'll get incredible processing power. It features three bands—low, medium, and high—each handling a distinct portion of the audio spectrum. These controls feature a single knob that both boosts and cuts signals. Set the overall loudness limit of your sounds, and the brickwall limiter ensures all your sounds stay in check. This multi-band effect is the perfect end-of-chain module, ensuring that anything you throw at it sounds dynamic and full.

GOLDEN MASTER FEATURES

BLCK_NOIR: 1 year after release, documentary about photo-shooting w/ Julia Bondar

Published on Sep 6, 2019 TheEndorphines

"It is exactly 1 year since we've released BLCK_NOIR - 7 voices drum modules with effects and filter.
We took a risk by choosing these peculiar and not a mainstream sounds for this machine. It is on the edge!
We are grateful to each musician who took this risk with us by getting our product!
Now we can trace changes which Blck Noir made on us during its development so did on the musicians and their live performance approaches.
We made electronic beat sounds different and recognizable. We increased the number of available effects twice. And we still have more ideas for new updates.
Here is a small documentary video from backstage shooting the photo session before Superbooth'19 module's announce.
Each Endorphin.es product through its history has a character, the look, which we want to convey through photography and cinematography.
Initial #BLCK_NOIR inspiration came from the dark/minimal wave music. So going back into the roots of that style, it was derived from the basically gothic-rock scene with electronic, industrial and neo-romantic influences. That music is characterized by gloomy, atmospheric, minor sound with expressive, melancholic or even theatrical vocal. Usually deliberate 'split personality' of the vocalist, playing on the contrasts. Such records are usually supplied with conceptual photo-sets, starting from the 80s for example from Dead Can Dance. We can observe similarities in other music styles like metal or gothic-rock. That was exactly what we needed, as we wanted to picture Julia in a raw, unedited, analog way.
Music by: Julia Bondar - Intermezzo (from BLCK NOIR album which was released 1 year and a week ago: http://juliabondar.bandcamp.com, https://www.youtube.com/JuliaBondar)."

Julia Bondar - Fleurs Du Mal (official video)

Published on Aug 22, 2019 Julia Bondar

http://juliabondar.com

"This song is a combination of two worlds: cold electronic machines and existential soul search for love. Initially, Fleurs Du Mal was made as a track to taste newly released electronic drum synthesizer Endorphin.es - Blck_Noir. Lyrics were written later, inspired by french Charles Baudelaire's - Les Fleurs Du Mal poetry. The full composition is made on a modular synthesizer."
