"This is an Oberheim OB-SX analog synthesizer with 6 voices."

Preset version of the OB-X/OB-Xa. Notice this one is grey. Later versions had the blue pinstripe. I always wondered if they were the same or if the grey was based on the OB-X and the blue on the OB-Xa. If anyone knows, feel free to comment.

SunVox Tutorial 14 - Sampler Retriggering / Scaling

YouTube Published on Sep 1, 2012 by SolarLuneTube

"This SunVox tutorial talks about retriggering samples to scale them to a song. When you scale samples to a song, you can do a lot, chaning their pitch, or even directly controlling how the samples play. It's pretty fun to do.

Thanks for watching my tutorials and subscribing, by the way. Your comments are appreciated as well.

C-C-Combine - Play anything with anything

C-C-Combine - Play anything with anything from Rodrigo Constanzo on Vimeo.

C-C-Combine is a corpus-based audio mosiacing application, built in Max/MSP, based on concatenative synthesis. Concatenative synthesis is a technique for synthesizing sounds by concatenating short samples of recorded sound. It is essentially a type of granular synthesis that, instead of playing back grains based on position/windows, plays back grains based on analysis of incoming audio. In order to do this you must have a corpus (the pre-analyzed body of sounds) and an input sound source (either incoming audio or file playback).

CESYG SuMIX

via the CESYG blog:

"As hinted at earlier, the next module I'm working on is an output summing mixer for the Eurorack format. And here is the first view of the front panel. Ignore the blobs on the corners, those are just for aligning the artwork with the panel mechanics. Also this shows representations of the panel furniture (knobs, leds, jacks, switches) to give a better impression of how it might look. And thanks to Cody for his useful input :)"

Introducing the CESYG DuaLFO

"The DuaLFO is a dual voltage-controlled Low-Frequency Oscillator:

The main LFO provides three sine waves 120 degrees apart (0, 120, 240 degrees). Frequency range is 45Hz down to around 90 minutes per cycle. CV control is normalised to the auxiliary LFO sine or the CV bus (link-selectable).

The auxiliary LFO is a triangle-core oscillator with a similar frequency range as the main LFO, and includes a diode sine shaper. In addition to CV control, its shape is fully adjustable from saw to ramp, and is also CV controlled. Finally, the auxiliary LFO is syncable, with push button selection of rising or falling edge sensitivity.

Both LFOs have bipolar LED indicators, especially useful at slower speeds. Knobs are high-quality spun-aluminium with knurled sides for comfortable but positive grip. All jacks are the same high-quality Cliff ones we sell. Finally, the 18HP-wide 2mm aluminium front panel is produced in MetalPhoto giving crisp graphics and a hardwearing finish.

Power consumption is typically 40mA per rail, and can run on both 12V and 15V systems. Reverse-voltage and missing-rail protection is included as standard."

There's discussion on Muff's.

soundmachines RC1radiostar

"It will be probably a 24hp module, brushed steel panel.

Main feat:

-16CV OUT (8 * 5V, also V/Hz, and 8* -10 to +10V)
-8 GATES OUT
-Bluetooth 2.0 interface (Android, Windows, Linux, wtf...)
-Bluetooth 4.0 interface (iOS)
-Direct interface between your device and your modular. No PC's.
-LIVE MODE and SEQ MODE distributed among the various outputs. (SEQ mode is synchable to other modular equipment for tight timing).

Some of the updates are:
-It will support OSC over BT (either SPP and Low Energy application profile, to have on board either Android (or WIN, or what else...) and iOS).
(we will keep also another 'lighter' protocol, just to save bytes..)


-It will have the choice (hardware) to choose between 5V and hotter 12V gates output

-It will have an expansion connector, to connect other 'medium' in the future.

And finally, this is the initial UI design of the app (for now we are testing it on a NEXUS phone, but it will support ANY Android 4.0 tablet or handset.
iOS app is also under construction."

"Some quick notes on the functionalities. The screenshot relates just to the LIVE features, there is a whole another world related to the SEQUENCER features, that could be mixed between the 16CV's and 8 GATEs).

-The actual screenshot is the most simple, 8 gates button (momentary) on the bottom of the screen, to trigger everything you want (from envelopes, to drums, to loopers...), and 8 CV sliders EACH one of which has it's own record/play buttons...
YES, press the R button and the movements will be recorded until you press the P button, when the RC1 starts looping the CV until you stop it.

-Have a look at the tabs on the top of the screen. We have (among many others) the possibility to pop up a chromatic keyboard with pitchbend and mod wheels (a fuc*ing tiny cv keyboard, maybe also polyophonic, that is ) OR an X-Y pad with GATE signal related to z-axis accelerometer 'bumps'.

-The app will comprise lot of things but NOT everything. We will disclose the protocol and the OSC address space to have others write apps and augment the object that could relate to your modular."

Mystery Moog Polymoog Keyboard with Buttons

via Christopher Winkels on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge

"A friend who knows I'm into synths sent me this from a garage sale. Any idea what model it is? I'm thinking they Polymoog keyboard, but I could be wrong. And the pedals look like a Taurus II."

Update via David: "Hard to see with the tiny pictures. Wild guess (especially with the pedals) that it a version of the Moog Apollo from the Constellation as it turned into the Polymoog?

Little Drone & Monotribe

Little Drone from Quijote Cinemusica on Vimeo.

"After building my first few electronics projects, I've decided to combine a few of them in one gadget. It's two oscilators (Atari Punk Console and Little Bass) a White Noise generator and an external input, mixed into a resonant low pass filter designed by Ray Wilson of MFOS. Took a lot of trial and error and expert advice to build but here it is. This is the maiden voyage, but I think I'll make some nice automatic mantras with this thing."

This is the MIDI model. Fully checked and working well, sounds wicked. Great condition too.

This is serial number #685, which gives some idea how rare these are."
