OTO Machines BOUM Now Available for Pre-Orders - New Sound Demos

This one in via swissdoc

The third of OTO Machines FX boxesannounced in 2014, the OTO BOUM, is now available for pre-order.

"BOUM is a full analog stereo warming unit, combining an easy-to-use compressor, a versatile distortion generator and a smooth low-pass filter. BOUM is the perfect tool when you need to add warmth, thickness, and character to your sounds, but also apply severe distortion and extreme compression treatments.

BOUM is based on an original and unique circuit, including the following stages :

INPUT GAIN : boost your signal up to +18db to adapt BOUM to various signal levels, and also improve the distortion content and the compression sensitivity.

COMPRESSOR : with a single knob, control the 3 essential parameters of a compressor, threshold, ratio and makeup gain, without thinking about how a compressor works ! The ratio ranges from 1:1 (no compression) to inf. :1 (limiter), but also negative compression up to 1: -1!

QUICK LIVE TECHNO IMPROV - With Alpha Base, DFAM, Odessa + Timeline, Octatrack

video upload by Megan Leber

"Quick live techno improv (142BPM) with the
- Jomox Alpha Base + Oto Boum
- Moog DFAM
- Xaoc Devices Odessa + Strymon Timeline
- Elektron Octatrack MK2
- Allen & Heath Xone 96

Just got the Xaoc Devices Odessa and wanted to try it out! DFAM + Alpha Base + Oto Boum is such a good combo! Had to beat match the OT + Alpha Base live with the modular + DFAM because they were not synced :)"

Syntakt, Oto Boum and Modular. Easy Afternoon Vibes (Basimilus, Manis Iteritas and Imitor Versio)

video upload by Thoow

"I was keen to try the Syntakt with my small Eurorack. With the new scales feature, this is probably the best box for external Midi. I trigger two voices in the Rack: Basimilus Iteratas Alter and Manis Itertitas. Both run then through a filter and into Imitor Versio. Slow modulation is coming from Maestro. I feed the audio back into Syntakt and run the full signal through Oto Boum for compression and drive. Have fun!"

Elta SOLAR50 + OTO Bim & Bam // HUGE sounding pocketable ORGAN

video upload by Dexba

"I've recently fallen into the pedals craze and yeah, I couldn't resist both the design and the vintage crunchiness of the OTO line, so when I got a good deal on the pair I went for it!
Both are amazing, even though you have to dive a little deeper in order to get exactly the sound and feel you're looking for.
BAM was a refreshing acquisition after years of BigSky. Natural sounding reverbs with a touch of dirt (comparison with the CXM1978 coming soon 🔥).
BIM is simply the perfect delay for me. Can go from a very simple, nice-sounding delay, to a filthy lo-fi stereo grungy mess, and the modulation came really handy with the Solar50 (that's what I am fiddling with during the jam).
Solar50 was the perfect companion for these pedals, since its raw sound (not passing even through the filter, since I was using the dry stereo output).
BIM provided dimension and modulation, while BAM gave the space and that little smudging effect needed for cutting some of the harshnesses.
All in all a GREAT combo! Can't wait to get my hands on an OTO BOUM, even though I am undecided between that and the Elektron Heat mk2. We'll see!
Enjoy ✨"

Novation Launchpad Pro MK3 standalone control of synths and modules - r . a d i a t o r 2 - CALC-

Published on Feb 21, 2020 -CALC-

"Here the Launchpad Pro MK3 is firmly in the driving seat.

In standalone mode it is sequencing a Rossum Electro Assimil8or, Novation Summit and the Beatsqueezer. It's also a control surface for the Octatrack

Featuring:

Novation Summit - Sequenced by the Launchpad Pro feat. a wonderful Multi patch from the incredible r Beny

Rossum Electro Panharmonium - Fed some food from an aux on the mixer and Morphagene

Rossum Electro Assimil8or - Sequenced from the Launchpad Pro via a fine CV.OCD

Beatsqueezer - Sequenced by the Launchpad Pro feat. a fine sampled Una Chorda from a furry friend.

Elektron Octatrack - being controlled by the Launchpad Pro's custom modes Launchpad Pro is a super cool controller as well as sequencer.

ANTI GAS Therapy // Syntakt goes Cinematic

video upload by Dave Mech

"I released a course for Syntakt! Get here: https://davemech.live/shop

I couldn't attend Superbooth this year (our son can be born any day now!), so I've been reading and watching all the new releases from a distance. This has caused an overflow of GAS synthtoms (padum tss) of course. So I thought I'd focus some extra attention towards the syntakt to see if I can dive deeper into its sound design capabilities to keep my mind from overthinking new possibilities in other gear. This cinematic piece rolled out. Hope you enjoy this one!

Pattern made completely within Syntakt. Post processing used: A small hint of OTO Boum and OTO BAM and a bit of EQ. If anybody is interested in how and why I apply these, let me know in the comments. I might do a video about this."

Novation SL MKIII Studio Performance -CALC- “Pez River”

Published on Oct 11, 2018 -CALC-

"Here's a little ditty composed and performed on the powerful Novation SL MKIII sequencer/Controller keyboard.
The SL is controlling an ARP 2600, Juno 106, Korg Poly61 M (running through a DIY phaser Mmmmm), SH101 + 0Coast and Yamaha Reface CP alongside the Elektron Octatrack and OTO Boum. Leploop is also connected to clock from the SL MKIII.

Theres 3 drum tracks and a couple of nice Spitfire audio Labs (free plug-ins) providing Strings and Charanga guitar sounds.

It a true hybrid Hardware/Computer combo, Ableton Live is clocking everything through the SL and all the musical elements (bar Ableton's Strings and Charanga guitar parts) are being sequenced by the SL MKIII directly.
My favourite bit is towards the Middle when the Peak has a nice rhythmic Bass line on a monster patch. I called the patch Pez River for some reason and so that's the name of the track.

I have to say that I have fallen completely in love with the SL MKIII workflow, the ability to sequence everything directly from a flagship keyboard is incredible and genuinely music feels so much easier to write now somehow!"

SH-101 // Djupviks The Qu // Sealegs // Gliss

video upload by LesjaMusic

"Djupviks The Qu proving it can do traditional phaser sounds as well as maniac dirt.L, with the help of Bela Gliss on modulation.

SH-101 reminding me no matter how many VCO/VCF/ADSR combos I buy, it’s still the ultimate monosynth.

Apologies for the sloppy playing - I’m better at programming synths than playing them.

Dirt and colour from Sealegs, Gen Loss, CXM 1978 and OTO Boum."

Novation SL MKIII - First Forays - The first track ever created on the SL MKIII?

Published on Oct 25, 2018 -CALC-

"Here is an early video made pre-announcement of the SL MKIII being used in the -CALC- Studio back in Sept '18.

I think this is the first ever full track created on the device. It was made whilst the final firmware was still being cooked up by the geniuses at Novation Towers.

The track was made using a early, non-finished firmware and is using just one session of the 64 available. In fact this firmware was before we got automation and even sequencer part mutes.... I ended up using empty patterns as part mutes!!!

Longer sequencers than the 128 steps available on each part (NB - not just 16 steps internet land!) are achieved by dividing the clock speeds. eg The different Arp 2600 bass lines are across 2 patterns each with a quarter speed clock.

This is based on a hybrid set-up using a little bit of Ableton (Just 3 looped clips) and that wonderful and free Spitfire Audio Labs Soft Piano driven from the SL MKIII's powerful arpeggiator.

The SL is directly sequencing the ARP2600 from the CV gate outputs. MIDI is also sent to the Preen FM, Peak, Leploop and the Roland SP404 processed through the fantastic Oto Boum (was still learning how to use that little box at the time too!)

One thing the SL MK III does really well is open up great opportunities to use plug-ins from software but still keeping the focus, control and composition process directly on the SL Hardware. It really is a hub of the studio and joins all of these worlds perfectly together whilst still giving you an "instrument" to play.

Also having keys in front of you and your sequencer feels genuinely incredible!!!

Hope y'all like it

RLSD // 100% Syntakt // Offbeat Hypnotic Techno

video upload by Dave Mech

"I released a course for Syntakt! Get here: https://davemech.live/shop

When I sit down with Syntakt most often these hypnotic trips flow out. Syntakt is capable of great textures. Today is freedom day in The Netherlands hence the name of this jam (released). There's an obvious dissonance between this celebration and what goes on elsewhere in the world.

This groove was completely made with Syntakt. Post processing: a slight mid EQ dip, compression, subtle OTO boum comp+saturation."
