Superbooth 2019 Soma Pulsar 23 analog drum machine synth

Published on May 11, 2019 SynthBae

"Superbooth 2019 Soma Pulsar 23 analog drum machine. Probably the most versatile and interesting analog drum machine ever made! At least for me it is!

I made this video with limited time. And did not explore all the possibilities. so many! please bear in mind I had no manual and was figuring out how it worked as I went, I did not explore patching very much there is just so much to figure out and it has such a broad range of sound possibilities even before you start patching.

Also the sequencer does not quantize, but it has midi and has individual outs."

Soma Laboratories Pulsar-23 | Wonderfully Uncomfortable

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"The fantasy is always better than the real thing. Or is it? I've been waiting for my Pulsar-23 for months and it arrived yesterday. I had this sound in my head after playing with my Mutable case, but the real thing felt dull, uncomfortable and sonically cramped at first patch.The 23 is nothing like a conventional drum machine and shouldn't be treated as such. Then it came to life :). Also features the Lyra-8 synthesizer."

Soma Pulsar Utilities | Superbooth 23

video upload by Thomann Synthesizers

"We met Vlad at Superbooth 23 to chat about Soma´s new unit called Pulsar Utilities.
Utilities contains a set of simple auxiliary modules to expand the functionality of the PULSAR-23 drum machine but it can also be used with any gear that works with CV signals (Eurorack, semi-modular synthesizers, etc.). Check out what Utilities is all about with Vlad. Enjoy :)"

Jam with the PULSAR-23 from SOMA Laboratories with METRON and Per4mer

video upload by Trovarsi

"This was the patch I submitted for the Modular World Pulsar-23 Spotlight. All the sounds are from the Pulsar. One of the voices is patched through the Trshmstr by WMD then into the Befaco HexMix. The bass/lead voice is patched through the Per4mer by Modbap Modular. All voices are being sequenced with the Metron by WMD."

Pulsar From Mars

video upload by Samples From Mars

https://samplesfrommars.com/products/... "Controlled Chaos From Our Favorite Modern Drum Machine
The Pulsar 23 is a semi-modular, analog drum machine from SOMA Laboratories, and the second in their line of "organismic" synthesizers. Despite its intimidating look, this mashup of classic and modern analog synthesis provides immediate fun and inspiration, so it's no wonder it was your #1 choice for what we should sample next! (via a survey we sent out earlier this year).

So much more than just blips and beeps, the Pulsar's 23 modules give this machine an un-rivaled, vast sonic pallet that allowed us to sculpt some of the most unique loops and one-hits we've ever made."

PULSAR-23 by SOMA laboratory. Monday jam (checking of the recorders. prototype demo)

Published on Nov 27, 2018 Vlad Kreimer

"I've finished the upgrade of PULSAR recorders. Now they have 96 times better resolution and three levels of velocity that allows working with live grooves much better. Here are the test and some fun with the drum machine possibilities."

Pulsar Base-One Soma Labs Pulsar 23 with 0-CTRL Novation Summit all controlled by Novation SL MKIII

Published on May 26, 2020 -CALC-

"Second recorded jam using the mighty Pulsar 23 drum machine from Soma Laboratories.

This time it is joined by 0-CTRL with 0-Coast, SH101, Beatsqueezer through Rossum Electro Panharmonium - recorded into Chase Bliss Blooper, Yamaha Reface CP and the don of synthesisers Novation Summit.

The whole thing is clocked and sequenced by the the Novation SL MKIII easily my favourite performance sequencer of all time.

This was created in realtime as it was recorded, I'd filmed something else but carried on rolling with a little idea and this turned out."

Oxi One Showcase Series

Playlist:

1. Oxi One Showcase Series #1

OXI ONE demo with Ableton Live showing the creation of a track from scratch. Melody, chords, drums, bass and some arpeggios on the top!

2. OXI One Showcase Series #2

OXI One - A new and inspiring way to create musical ideas and control all your studio gear.
Showcase with Ableton Live.

3. OXI One Showcase Series #3 - Modular Rig

Modular time! 🎛🔈
Take control of a full setup with the OXI One and its 8 cvs and 8 gates and one modulation cv input.

4. OXI One Showcase Series #4 - LFOs and CHORD triggering

If parameters lock per step wasn't enough you have one LFO per sequence assignable to more than 20 parameters which gives you even more ways of expressivity.

5. OXI One Showcase Series #5 - Modular & Chords

Performing and sequencing chords with a modular rig has never been so easy.
OXI One is here delivering some chords with 4 voices (4cvs and 4gates).
A bit of modulation is sent to the pitch of all them to make a more interesting sound. Chords are manually transposed and we play also with the Global Gate control to get different note lengths.

6. OXI One Showcase Series #6 - Sequencing 18 tracks in Ableton Live

Oxi One running 18 tracks in Ableton Live with. All modulation is done by MIDI sent by Oxi One in real time.

💡Sequencer 1 in Poly mode with a 8 bar chord progression. Poly mode allows up to 7 notes and 4cc’s per step.
💡Sequencer 2 in Mono mode playing an 8 bar (128 steps) baseline. Cutoff modulation with one CC.
💡Sequencer 3 in Multitrack mode triggering some samples and playing the lead melody. Multitrack mode provides 8 independent tracks with 128 steps and one CC per track.
💡Sequencer 4 in Multitrack mode playing drums.

7. OXI One Showcase Series #7 - CC & Motion Recording

With OXI One you have motion recording of up to 8 CCs per sequencer (there're 4!). This feature quickly enables you to give movement to any parameter on a hardware synth or VST via MIDI or modular synth via the 8 fully configurable CV outputs.

8. OXI One Showcase Series #8 - ARP Recording

Here's a new video showing Arp recording capabilities.

OXI One has one arpeggiator per sequencer which can be directly recorded into the pattern.

If you have a polyphonic synth you can record overdub, up to 7 notes per step. This is great to layer up your arpeggios or whatever you throw at MIDI in.

Arpeggiator, chord engine and MIDI filtering features can also be used from external gear from all available MIDI connections (USB, TRS and Bluetooth).

9. OXI One Showcase & Setup explanation #9 - Hybrid MIDI & Eurorack Setup

Techno Jam with OXI One, Eurorack and MIDI gear (KORG Volca Sample & Arturia Microfreak).

Setup and explanation of the OXI One configuration at the end of the video. Enjoy!

Note: The third Cv is also outputing a triggered envelope whose decay is set by the step gate and the amplitude by the step velocity.

P.d. No usb/power cord 🙂

10. OXI One Showcase #10 - Sequencing and modulating Pulsar-23

OXI One and Pulsar-23 are great companions. With Pulsar's MIDI learn capabilities you can control all sound engines plus a plethora of other functions though CC messages, cv and gate outputs.

11. OXI One Showcase #11 - Euclidean Generator & Multitrack sequencer

An euclidean sequencer with a whole set of randomization features, ratcheting, microtimings, independent time divisions and all kind of edition capabilities??

✅ YES❗️❗️

Now, OXI One has an Euclidean Generator and it's the perfect companion 👬 of the Multitrack MODE !!

One is the first MIDI sequencer and controller implementing modular interfaces (8 gates and 8 cvs), USB MIDI, Bluetooth MIDI and of course, standard MIDI.

Sequential REV2 | Revelations Patch Bank

video upload by MIDERA

"I had access to the Sequential REV2 for 1 month and decided to make a patch bank with it. In 2019 I had a REV2 desktop and made some patches that I really liked, so I decided to finish the bank of patches and sell them. Please visit here for details on how to purchase these patches: https://www.midera-artist.com/synthes...

I chose to not use any external effects for these patches. Everything you hear can be achieved using the REV2 by itself. These patches will install on Bank 1 of your REV2. I do not think it is backwards compatible with the Prophet 08 unfortunately.

I wrote my review of the REV2 here as well:

Prism Circuits - Canvas System vs Pulsar 23

video upload by Prism Circuits

"Cross patching the Canvas System to the SOMA Pulsar 23 to get some deep modulation being sent from both units and routed to multiple destinations. Creating feedback is one of my favorite ways to use the Canvas System within the system itself and externally."
