An Updated on Percussa's Max/MSP FM Synth for AudioCubes

via the Percussa blog where you'll find the full post.

Pictured here:
(1)This is the oscilloscope for the modulation signal received from another oscillator, which is used to modulate the pitch of this oscillator.
(2)This checkbox is used to enable modulation of the amplitude of the oscillator using the signal from another oscillator.
(3)The KEYB IN ENABLE checkbox is used to link the pitch of the oscillator to incoming MIDI notes. The coarse/fine dials are used to create an (in)harmonic relationship between the oscillator frequencies.
(4)When the keyboard input is not enabled, you can use these coarse/fine dials to manually set oscillator frequency.
(5)These faders are used to create a unique waveform mix for the oscillator. You can mix sine, saw, square and triangle waveforms to come up with your own unique waveform.
(6)This section contains a SVF (state variable filter) with cutoff and resonance, as well as a bit and sample rate reducer. It processes the signal created by the waveform mixer.
(7) In case you want to apply an envelope to the amplitude of the signal, you can draw your own envelope here, which will be triggered using the MIDI note on received from the keyboard. Alternatively you can just trigger it manually. You can also set the envelope to loop.
(8) Finally, there is the output level setting which you can use to send the resulting signal to the audio output. You can also mute the output signal using the enable checkbox.

iNDEX04

"iNDEX04 is the fourth DiN compilation album and includes two tracks each from the titles DiN31 - 39.

The artists on show are Ian Boddy, Parallel Worlds, Markus Reuter, Erik Wøllo, Bernhard Wöstheinrich, ARC & Mazmoneth.

As with the previous three DiN samplers (iNDEX01 - DiN10, iNDEX02 - DiN20 & iNDEX03 - DiN30), DiN label boss Ian Boddy has mixed and cross-faded the 18 tracks into a continuous ambient mix that not only showcases the albums on the disc but presents an exciting and varied CD in it's own right. It also highlights the varied and intriguing music that the DiN label offers on it's releases from deep analogue synth grooves through vibrantly melodic instrumentals to powerful, epic ambient atmospheres. An intoxicating mix of the old and new beautifully presented in a slimline cardboard wallet with an extra flap which just adds to the value and collectibility of this disc.

Moon Modular 553 MIDI to Clock.mov

YouTube Published on Jun 1, 2012 by AudioCentralMagazine

"A short run of Model 553 MIDI to ClockSignal Converter from Moon Modular: in the first half of the video, a DAW drives via MIDI Clock a 960 Step Sequencer; the fixed clock out drives the sequencer with 16 notes density; the variable clock out emits 8dot, 8, 16dot notes. In the second half of video, notes above C3 are converted in clock signal for drive right 960 sequencer and notes below C3 are converted in clock signal for drive left 960 sequencer."

ARP Pro/DGX Monophonic Analog Synthesizer Mk II 1977

YouTube Published on Jun 1, 2012 by keyboardresource

"Sounds exactly the same as the ARP Pro-Soloist (1972) but built much better. Gone is the cardboard bottom of the Pro-Soloist. The Pro/DGX has all-metal construction. The metal ends have a thin piece of what looks like leather glued to them. The rocker switches of the Pro-Soloist were replaced with two position button switches with a light above or below them. So, you always know which sound is selected. Also has cleaner output than the Pro-Soloist. Also, switches are arranged logically with the portamento switch located with the rest on the left side."

"Sounds exactly the same as the ARP Pro-Soloist (1972) but built much better. In 1977, ARP redesigned their entire lineup (ARP 2600, ARP Odyssey, ARP Solus, ARP Omni, etc.) by making them more robust and giving them all a sleek orange, black and white look with plain, Helvetica font and detachable (current standard) three-prong power plugs. While they discontinued the ARP Explorer I, they added the ARP Quartet and ARP Avatar (synthesizer for guitar) and changed the name of the Pro-Soloist (2701) to Pro/DGX (2733). Gone is the cardboard bottom of the Pro-Soloist. The Pro/DGX is all-metal construction. The metal ends have a thin piece of what looks like leather glued to them. The rocker switches of the Pro-Soloist were replaced with two position button switches with a light above or below them. So, you always know which sound is selected. The DGX also has cleaner audio output than the Pro-Soloist."
