Sonicware ELZ_1 play - My New Patches Demo


video upload by ChrisLody

"Full Disclosure: I occasionally take on freelance work at Sonicware on an hourly rate producing synth & sample sound design, beta testing, checking English text, video manuals etc. This video wasn't paid for directly but as a result of my work with Sonicware it is marked as Paid Promotion

I recently completed some new patches as part of the work I'm doing on the Sonicware ELZ_1 play so I thought it would be nice to demo them here as I've been asked quite a lot about it since it was first announced.

This is still prototype hardware though don't expect any radical changes at this point just refinements. Also this is unfinished firmware too so I'm not sure how many features will be added before release compared to what's shown here, but there are some nice additions like the unison setting that make playing around with the old synth engines fun too. The Super Osc is a one of the new engines so you'll see that throughout the video."

Lofi-12 XT [Cyberpunk Demo with modulating test]


video upload by SONICWARE

"Lofi-12 XT Kickstarter Campaign Ends 5th Nov. FREE BONUS CASE to All Backers!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...

I tested with modulating the end point of the sample using the Parameter Locking, and modulating the filter frequency with an LFO. I used only one LFO, but you can use two for more complex modulation.
I was using both 24kHz and 12kHz sampling sounds mixed together, but that's fun too.

[ELZ_1 play] FM mode of an 8bit wave memory synth experiment


video upload by SONICWARE

"Today I experimented with the FM mode of the 8BIT WAVE MEMORY SYNTH engine.

This engine has a built-in 2-operator FM synth.
So an 8BIT WAVE MEMORY table is generated by specifying the RATIO and LEVEL parameters of the modulator.
These parameters can also be modulated with LFOs and envelopes.

In today's experiment, I'm modulating the FM RATIO and FM LEVEL parameters with various LFO waveforms.

Please take a look.

Thanks,

Yu Endo"

[ELZ_1 play] SiGRINDER - An Experiment in Generating Sounds from Your Own Voice


video upload by SONICWARE

"Today I experimented with "SiGRINDER," SONICWARE's unique synth engine that can generate sounds by decomposing and reconstructing audio data recorded on an ELZ_1 play.
The source audio was a recording of my voice speaking "A, I, U, E, O" and I used it.
SiGRINDER generates sounds by adjusting parameters such as the resolution of the generated waveform (RESO), the degree of waveform extraction (DIG), the direction of extraction (POSITION), and the length of the generated waveform (TIME).
In the video, I show how to generate sounds from voice recordings and a small performance example.
In today's experiment, the DIG parameter is modulated by LFO.
I hope you will enjoy the sounds that you can recognize the original voice and the new sounds that are not at all.
Please take a look.

[ELZ_1 play] CUSTOM OSC - An experiment switching between two waveforms at arbitrary period


video upload by SONICWARE

"Today I experimented with SONICWARE's own sound engine, CUSTOM OSC.

The CUSTOM OSC engine can play sounds while switching between two different waveforms at arbitrary period.

For example, it is easy to "switch between a sine wave and a square wave every 1.5 cycles," and the unique "undulation" and "overtone" sound is interesting.

You can also adjust the DUTY of the waveform.

As is common with all ELZ_1 play engines, you can control the synth engine parameters with LFO and ENVELOPE.

In the case of CUSTOM OSC, you can experiment with a variety of sounds by modulating the switching cycle between two waveforms, waveform type, DUTY, PITCH, and more.

In today's experiment, I created a sound that would be suitable for nostalgic, chill music, chiptune, and dance music.

Depending on the settings, it may be suitable for various genres of music. Please take a look.

Yu Endo

---------------
今日は二つの異なる波形を任意の周期ごとに切り替えて鳴らすことのできるSONICWARE独自のサウンドエンジン「CUSTOM OSC」の実験をしました。

例えば「正弦波と矩形波を1.5周期ごとに切り替える」といったことが簡単に出来て、独特の「うねり」や「倍音感」が面白いです。

また、波形のDUTYを調整することもできます。

ELZ_1 playのどのエンジンも共通なのですが、LFOやENVELOPEでシンセエンジンパラメータをコントロールできます。

CUSTOM OSCの場合、2つの波形の切り替え周期や波形タイプ、DUTY、PITCHなどをモジュレーションして多彩なサウンド実験ができます。

今日の実験では、ノスタルジックでチルな音楽や、チップチューン、ダンスミュージックなどに合いそうなサウンドができました。

設定によっては様々なジャンルの音楽に合いそうです。ぜひご覧になってください。

Stylophone Beat, East Beast, Kawai K1m Jam


video upload by ChrisLody

"Full Disclosure: I occasionally take on freelance work at Dubreq (they make Stylophones) on an hourly rate producing video content. This video wasn't paid for directly but as a result of my work with Dubreq it is marked as Paid Promotion

Right time for a weird jam! I've been ridiculously busy recently with my day job and music related work so can barely justify taking time off to make this (this is product endorsement which is about as close as I can get to time off at the moment 😅), but I risk my channel turning into wall to wall Sonicware news (more of that to come) so I'm trying to find time for a bit of silliness like this!

Dubreq sent me the Stylophone Beat a few weeks back and I've been having some fun with it. For such an inexpensive machine it has surprisingly features. It can play 4 different kits, 4 different bass sound, 4x 32 step patterns, has some realtime playback effects like a filter sweep and pattern length (think stutter mode), patterns can be copied, elements muted etc, the stock sounds are well chosen, really quite good. There are limitations of course, the volume of each sound is fixed, there's no sync capability (although technically the LED flashes at 1ppq so it could be hacked) and the memory is wiped when it's powered down so make sure you record you work. One saving grace in that regard is that it goes into standby quite quickly so this Beat was left on all night with my rhythm programmed in so was still there the next day for me to continue work on. One small caveat is that the drum sequencer supports 16th note resolution but it seems the bass sequencer doesn't, you'll get 8th note recordings. It does support glide though as you may be able to tell from what I've made here. So all in all a fun little machine!

I also bought a Cre8audio East Beast recently and haven't had the chance to use it, so here it is used in the laziest way imaginable with the Stylophone Gen X-1 as a delay effect. It's a very capable little semi modular but I'm not using those features here. I also bought a Kawai K1 which used to belong to former Sonicware staff member Evan Sirchuk, so here's that too playing one of it's presets. That's a really bright sounding bit of kit and I wasn't sure what to use it for at first but it fits in nicely here. I don't even think I've used that Korg NanoKEY2 for anything yet either and I've had that for years!

Anyway, I don't know how I ended making such an odd sounding jam 😁"
