"This is an interesting synth module dating from 1985. It was originally an add-on to the Siel DK80 it still functions independently as an 8 voice polyphonic synth with built in sequencer.

The original modules took their power from the DK80 but I've had a power supply professionally made to work with this module. All MIDI is working fine and the module sounds good. There's a much more detailed write-up here"

Roland TR-707, Tama Techstar TS-204 and Korg Electribe EM-1 Demo, by Jordan Passmore


Published on May 21, 2014 Jordan Passmore·72 videos

"The 707 is doing the majority of the drums, the Techstar is doing the percussive synth bit, and the EM-1 is doing the bass/melody as well as the 909-ish open hi-hat. All are mixed on my StudioMaster mixer and there is an analog delay on the aux send (the EM-1 and Tama are effected). The 707's rimshot is triggering the Tama's "Synth" voice. The TR-707 is being slightly overdriven on the mixer."

Some features in more detail

2 VOICE AND 3 VOICE
While the original Polysix only features 6-voice polyphonic, unison and chord memory, this mod adds additional play modes.2-voice and 3-voice polyphonic modes are tradeoffs between the maximum fatness of the unison and the maximum number of voices of the polyphonic mode. (Polysix only)

POLYCHORD
Polychord lets you assign a chord consisting of up to 6 notes to any key of the keyboard. This can be done very quickly and is very suitable for playing live. Of course you can combine this feature with the normal arpeggiator or the powerarp (see below). This makes it possible to have a sequenced chord progression in the matter of seconds.

EXTENDED UNSION MODE
The unison mode on the Polysix is basically a monophonic mode, but lacking almost all of the features that most monophonic synths have.The extended unison mode this modification offers changes that.
- legato mode (no envelope retrigger when playing legato)
- key priority up / down / last
(Poly-61 users see Poly-61 notes)

unisonstatic
POWERARP
Powerarp is a feature best described as a sequencer or a custom arpeggiator.
You can define a sequence of up to 128 notes, which are then triggered by the arpeggiator clock. Up, down, updown and three different random modes are just a few ways to replay this sequence. You can use this with all play modes including Chord and Polychord, which means you can define complex chord progressions and replay them using the arpeggiator, an external trigger or using midi. You can also add breaks into the sequence which allows rhythmic arpeggiator sequences."

New CESYG LEVIN LED Voltage Indicator Eurorack Module


via CESYG

"Finally, after some time to get things just right, the next CESYG module is almost ready for release. LEVIN is an LED Voltage Indicator with a seemingly simple function: show an input voltage on a large LED bargraph. I think it does it rather well. Here's the first completed module after testing.

Note that in the above picture it looks like several LEDs are on at the same time, when in fact that is simply due to the LEDs sweeping upwards while the camera was capturing the image. To keep the current consumption under control the display is always in dot mode.

All that remains to do is finish writing the manual, get it printed and bound, and then package up the first batch of modules ready for shipping.

Analogue Systems rs370 PHG 6-voice synth


Published on May 21, 2014 bigcitymusic·340 videos

"This patch utilizes the Analogue Systems rs370 Polyphonic Harmonic Generator's polyphonic MIDI mode for six square wave voices. The rs370 is run through the Filter A and Filter B of the Cwejman DMF-2. We've programmed two of the rs370's CTRL OUT outputs to function as either MIDI Faders or MIDI LFO's (which the rs370 converts to CV) to modulate each filter of the DMF-2. A MIDI controller allows us to physically interface with and play the dynamics of the rs370's MIDI to CV capabilities. Additionally, the rs370 release time has been programmed to respond under MIDI control."
