Yonac Software Releases miniDrum PRO Drum Machine for the iPad

"Using the YASSE sound sequencing and synthesis engine, Yonac have created yet another exciting iPad music application. (New York, NY – October 6, 2010) Yonac Software is pleased to announce the release of the miniDrum PRO for the iPad. Following the release of miniSynth PRO, one of the top-selling synthesizers for the iPad, miniDrum PRO is designed and engineered so that anyone can create amazingly lush rhythms and beats.

miniDrum PROʼs recording capabilities are remarkable. There are two different ways to create songs: live recording and/or input to the pattern matrix. miniDrum PRO comes with 40 bundled “kits” containing over 300 unique sounds that range from acoustic drums to electronic sets to auxiliary percussion.

The core of miniDrum PRO is its 8-track step sequencer, where measures and notes can be
entered and edited. Each note is individually adjustable for pitch, velocity, panning and lag, allowing infinite variations. There is no limit to the number of measures in a song, and each measure is independently adjustable for time signature. The sequencer also provides variable note resolution, and an infinite number of projects can be saved.

miniDrum PRO also comes with an exceptionally versatile effects stack and in true, individually adjustable stereo. It includes a custom-tuned version of the "Vincent" filter with low-pass, high- pass and band-pass output; a filter modulator with variable waveforms, speed and depth; a custom, tube-tone overdrive unit with settable gain; bitcrusher with adjustable bits and frequency; flanger with adjustable delay, rate, depth and regeneration; analog-tone reverb/delay unit with adjustable feedback and note-latching (for timed delay repeats); and the "Humanizer" with adjustable amount that you can use to randomize the pitch, panning, velocity of a sequence to add the "human touch."

miniDrum PRO is available at the iTunes Store for $9.99.

"I noticed 2 extra PCB's of which i recognized the CGS mixer. the other one is located behind the DC mixer, so possibly it's also a small CGS thingy."

Synton Syntovox 222 Vocoder


via this auction

"The Syntovox 222 is one of the rarest vocoders around , next to the units from EMS and Sennheiser.

It sounds very good but different to a SVC 350. The quality of this unit is definitely equal to a SVC 350, which is in my opinion the best vocoder around. This Synthovox 222 has only slight wear. All lamps and switches work as they should, the pots work without crackling. The Syntovox was proffesionally cleaned and it is in excellent technical and optical condition. Works with 220V."
