JD-800 Cosmic Universe Patches

"Original 64 patches and 1 complete Special Setup for the Roland JD-800.

These patches have been designed for maximum usability on a single bank featuring these categories:

16 Lead patches, from screaming leads to mellow tones.

8 Bass patches with fat, depth and fullness.

12 Pad patches for multi usage backgrounds or even solo for composite material.

4 String patches emulating and carefully programmed to sound similar to the famed Strings card.

8 F/X patches of special effects, with emphasis on usability, not just meaningless resonant beeps.

16 Pulse Sequence patches similar to an arpeggiator, only more complex and even more fun to use."

Curious why they chose the KORG Delta as name, UI & color scheme for this.

Sample Manipulation Synthesizer: Synthor for AudioCubes

Published on Nov 12, 2012 by Percussa

"Series of videos showing the new free modular synthesizer software
"SYNTHOR", for Percussa AudioCubes.
Request more info about how to order AudioCubes and SYNTHOR at
http://land.percussa.com/how-to-buy-audiocubes/

In this series, 8 AudioCubes are linked to 8 different processing
modules in the software, as follows:

Green cubes: low frequency oscillators with frequency input and signal outputs
Blue cubes: sample players with position input and signal outputs
Purple cube: sample delay line with signal input and signal outputs
Red cube: stereo out, with left and right input and no outputs

Using this setup, it's easy to experiment with frequency modulation
synthesis (FM), sample manipulation, low frequency oscillators and
delay lines.
Green cubes (LFOs) are used in various combinations to generate
signals which drive the playback of the blue cubes (sample players).

You can load any sample into the sample players in SYNTHOR. Common
formats like WAV and AIFF are supported.
In these vide demos, samples from our free EMISSIONS sound pack,
designed by Pure Magnetik, have been used.
You can get the sound pack at http://land.percussa.com/software-downloads/"
