KadImprov #22 Ambient Soundscape | 80's vibe-ProphetRev2 | Mother32 | Syntrx | Moogerfooger

video upload by KadiMusic

"Title: 'Wandering in a Daydream'

To create the dreamy and weightless atmosphere I wanted in my soundscape, I started by creating a melody on the Moog Mother-32 and sending the CV to my Syntrx. I used Oscillator 1 on the Syntrx to create an airy arpeggio-like sound sending it through the reverb of the Syntrx, while Oscillator 2 was used as a distortion effect.

Once I had the foundation of the soundscape, I added the #Moogerfooger with additional subtle accents that gave the #soundscape more character. The Prophet Rev2 was the final piece of the puzzle, adding the chords as finishing touches to the sounds of the Mother-32 and #Syntrx.
Also I tried out the Chow Tape Model vst on the Prophet to give it an 80's lo-fi vibe.

Overall, I was pleased to explore some sounds with the Moogerfooger and to create an interesting routing on the Syntrx for this track.
Thanks for watching and thanks for your support! 🙂👋"

New Erica Synths SYNTRX II

via Erica Synths

Peter Zinovieff himself approved our re-imagination of his legendary Synthi AKS in the form of the SYNTRX which was produced in a limited run of 1056 units. Based on lessons learned from the SYNTRX, we decided to create an instrument which would integrate even deeper into contemporary electronic and experimental music setups and cover sonic territory from daunting drones to powerful basslines and glitched noisescapes. The SYNTRX II is the culmination of our analogue sound design circuits – two perfectly stable main oscillators with waveshapers, a versatile multimode filter, supercharged external instrument inputs with an envelope follower, a unique, great sounding ringmodulator, a recordable joystick and built in piano roll sequencer, all arranged around our signature matrix mixer and topped off with powerful FX on our new DSP platform. Introducing The SYNTRX II - a new dark horse for experimental sonic rides.

Features:
Two perfectly stable main oscillators with CV controlled waveforms
Modulation oscillator with variable waveforms
Highpass and Lowpass filters in series
Free running or gate synced sample and hold circuit
Multi-colour noise generator
DC coupled instrument inputs with signal inversion and envelope follower
Ringmodulator of unique design
Looping trapezoid envelope generator and VCA
Two output VCAs
Signal meter with a dedicated audio/CV output
FX section with great sounding Delay and Reverb
Recordable Joystick Analogue patch matrix with 3 attenuation levels in each patch point
254 patch memory
Piano roll sequencer
Two CV inputs
Gate input
DIN5 MIDI Input (CV and Gate) and MIDI Thru
Two assignable outputs
Headphone output

Superbooth 22: Erica Synths - Syntrx 2

video upload by sonicstate

Peter Zinovieff on the orignal SYNTRX

"Girts showed us the rather lovely Syntrx 2, and showed us round the refined and expanded features.

Building on their experience from the original Syntrx, this incarnation now has more accurate oscillators with octave switches and manual or CV controlled wave shaping, which allows for PWM. There is also a newly designed dual high-pass and low-pass filter allowing for enhanced filtering flexibility. There are digital FX developed in collaboration with Dutch Company 112 Decibel, and the joystick motion is now recordable.

Available: July - August

Syntrx 2 Price: 1800 euros"

Erica Synths EMS SYNTHI Inspired SYNTRX

"Since its beginnings Erica Synths has promoted experimental electronic music and has developed instruments that enable musicians to explore it.

When it comes to standalone instruments, we think, one of most encouraging instruments in experimental music was Synthi AKS, so we teamed up with engineers from Riga Technical University to develop a synthesizer with a user interface inspired by Synthi AKS.

SYNTRX [sintrex] is developed from scratch all analogue synthesizer (no part of schematics is cloned from Synthi AKS) with digitally controlled patch matrix. Unlike most of patch matrixes around, that mechanically connect signals, our 16x16 matrix utilizes 32 (!!!) 8 channel analogue switch ICs AS16M1 (made in Latvia, Alfa RPAR) and is a mixer/buffered multiple with 3 level attenuation (gain 1, 0,6 and 0,3) in connection points. It has 256 patch memory, automatic patch switching in performance mode or via MIDI messages.

SYNTRX has 3 highly accurate VCOs that track great over 8 octaves, noise generator with “colour” filter, resonant VCF, ring modulator, spring reverb, looping envelope generator, joystick controller, input amplifier with adjustable gain for microphone to line level signals, 3 VCAs, output signal filter, analogue CV/audio signal level indicator and built in speakers. Extra features, not found on Synthi AKS, are Sample & Hold circuit with individual clock, octave switch for VCO1, synchronization of VCO2, AD mode on the envelope generator, as well as MIDI that accepts CV, Gate, Modulation wheel messages and program change messages for the matrix control. The SYNTRX comes in aluminium enclosure with ash tree side panels.

We believe, it will inspire users to explore the space and travel to previously undiscovered audible realms.

Limited run of SYNTRX will be available at the end of 2019 priced at 2500EUR (VAT excluded) .

Short Waves - SYNTRX and Korg SQ-64, NTS-1 Synth Demo

video upload by Robert Saint John

"Here’s a short poppy piece summing up my weeks of experimenting with the ins and outs of the @EricaSynths Syntrx, the @KorgOfficial NTS-1, and the SQ-64 sequencer. Two paraphonic tracks from the chain-patterned SQ-64 via CV to Syntrx, and a third via MIDI to the NTS-1 equipped with @Sinevibes very cool GROOVE DSP drum machine engine. Ring mod on Syntrx with OSC3 and the messy input from a shortwave radio for some grit, all out to the NTS-1 for reverb and delay. Recorded direct with Roland GO:Mixer Pro X."

ERICA SYNTHS SYNTRX // EMS SYNTHI A SYTLE MATRIX SYNTH // IBANEZ UE-305 ANALOG MULTI FX

video upload by LESINDES

"New to my studio ERICA SYNTHS SYNTRX. A synth basically inspired by EMS SYNTHI A. Erica has presented a black und more reasonably priced version 2 of SYNTRX with enhanced features but I think this one gets closer to the original. In the new one there a digital multi FX unit instead of the classic spring reverb and also filters were told to be different...
This was the first time I ever played this type of synth. I did not have not even a software model to train with. Since it is a bit unusaul to connect the components of this synth via matrix (nothing prewired as in other semi modular synths like ARP 2600 or ARTURIA MATRIXBRUTE ) it tok me a while to be productive.
SYNTRX with a littel help from IBANEZ UE-305: analog delay and chorus.
No keyboard. Only one patch + joy stick action. Internal
spring reverb is doing a very good job.
This is an amazing instrument!

'::| TO HEAR THE FULL RANGE OF FREQUENCIES AND STEREO EFFECTS, A GOOD PAIR OF HEADPHONES ARE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED |::

As I was exploring the capabilities of the Erica Synths SYNTRX, I came up with a patch on it, and a sequence on the Make Noise 0-CTRL, that vaguely reminded me of something with that "Boards of Canada" flavor... so I had to capture it on video.
