Big Ol' Box of Malekko - MA SYN


I figured I'd start and end with this shot. Look at the green letter's behind the top snakeskin Monorocket case and you'll get the MA SYN reference. Synths can be a sin after all.

So, look what arrived in the mail this week. :)  A big ol' box of Malekko modules.  One Wiard Joystick Axis Generator (JAG), two Richter Anti-Oscillators, two Richter Oscillator IIs, a Richter Noisering, a FADE module and and Wiard XMIX.  Richter is Grant Richter of Wiard of course.  Malekko produces Wiard modules in eurorack format.  Below are a ton of unboxing shots and my Monorocket snakeskin case the modules went into.  As you can see, the case is also home to my Division 6 Mattson SQ-816 prototype sequencer.  The shots get flashier once I have everything mounted in the case.  The top and bottom shot is the case sitting on top of a second snakeskin Monoroket case with a Mattson Mini Modular system to the left and right.  The MA SYN in the background is a MATRIXSYNTH banner I had made for events.   Mood lighting comes from one of those RGB LED light bulbs with remote, a gift from my good friend Carbon111.

So...  You know what I'll be doing this weekend.  :) Thank you Malekko Heavy Industry!

On a side note I just found out after setting up this post that Josh of Malekko is setting up a raffle for a number of Malekko modules to benefit Muff of Muffwiggler.  Details on that here.  Do check it out, it's a chance to help out, and a chance to win some great gear.

Ensoniq SQ-80 Cross-Wave Synthesizer Keyboard

"The SQ-80 is basically a reved-up ESQ-1with a total of 75 waveforms, a 61-note keyboard with velocity & aftertouch, floppy disk drive for storing patches and sequences, and an enhanced sequencer. Great for organs, analog-type sounds, pads and sound effects. Like the classic ESQ-1, the SQ-80 functions in providing analog-type 4-pole lowpass filtering and editing of digital waveforms. Each voice can combine up to 3 of the 75 waveforms. These waveforms include multi-sampled transient attack waves such as violin bow, plectrum picks, mallet, hammer, breath attacks and percussive sounds. There are also 5 sampled drum sets. Three LFOs are onboard for some pretty wild modulation of the sounds you create or edit. Complete MIDI implementation makes the SQ-80 great for any studio or live use too.

As for playing the SQ-80, it is a dream! Its 61-note keyboard is full, responsive and has polyphonic aftertouch. Polyphonic aftertouch simply means that each key pressed will respond to aftertouch independently of the other keys. The aftertouch can be used to control a variety of modulation parameters such as the LFO. Pitch and mod wheels and plenty of front-panel buttons and a few sliders make accessing and editing fairly easy and hands-on. The keyboard can be split or layered. The pattern-based 8-track multitimbral sequencer is great for creating short to complex sequences live, or in step time with quantization, bounce-able tracks, 60 sequence patterns and 20 songs. And they can be saved to disk along with any patches you've created and any SysEx Midi data. Unfortunately, the SQ-80 has no built-in effects. The SQ-80 is certainly a classic analog/digital hybrid of the late eighties which still holds up well today."

Plan B Patching techniques: Creative Syncing

"This video highlights the audible differences between square and pulse wave influence when sync is used as a sound modifier. The switch on the M37 Mark I converts the square wave output to a 10ms. pulse. This feature is not available on the Mark II, but you can manifest the same attribute by using the PWM output of a Model 15 set to just before it folds away on the positive side."
