WEST// - West-coast Style Monophonic Synthesizer for Reaktor

"WEST// is a west-coast style monophonic synthesizer.
Since there aren’t too many of this kind of synths available for Reaktor I decided to try to create something. WEST// was inspired by the sounds of the Buchla modules and the semi-modular workflow from the ARP 2600 synthesizer.
It contains a Complex Oscillator (FM based dual-oscillator), a filter similar to a low-pass gate, 2 ADSRs, 1 Multi-Stage envelope, Noise generator, 3 VCAs, 2 mixers, 1 sequencer, 2 random modules inspired by the Source of Uncertainty, 2 regular LFOs, 1 Self-Influenced Random module, a frequency shifter and a Wave Multiplier.

The workflow on it is a bit particular so here are a few tips to get started:
- The VCA 1 is linked to the Master output and it’s always controlled by the ADSR 1.
- The sliders available on the Complex Oscillator behave as offsets when there’s no Modulation selected. Once you select a modulation source, the sliders turn into attenuators for the incoming modulation signals.
- Shape 1 and 2 are a bipolar slider

I’ve also created some custom sliders with a particular color scheme (inspired by the Buchla Easel):
Gray Sliders - Control Voltage
Blue Sliders - Audio Signals
Yellow Sliders - Time-based controls
Green Sliders - Audio Modifiers
Orange Sliders - Sequencer

The Self-Influenced Random (SIR) module is a special S&H circuity that can take the CV output of the S&H to control the frequency of the clock oscillator used to trigger the S&H. The SIR CV output is available in almost all of the CV inputs spread throughout WEST// however I've also added gate outputs which can be used to trigger the 3 envelopes.

There are still many other feature I wanna add to WEST// however this is a pretty solid 1.0 version.

"If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants."

WEST// uses a couple of previously programmed parts:
- Wave Multiplier by Sandy Small and Kim Boestrom
- Frequency Shifter by Sandy Small, Sean Costello, and Jesse Voccia.
- Spring Reverb by Boscomac
- Source of Uncertainty by ReaktorTips.com
- Low Pass Gate by arachnaut

Presets were created by Ícaro Ferre and Mattheus Chediak.

GuitarCapo+ - Guitar MIDI Controller for the iPad

GuitarCapo+ Teaser 1 - Controlling iGrand Piano Published on Sep 14, 2014

iTunes: GuitarCapo+ - TonApp AS | New iPad Deals on eBay

"Shows the next version of GuitarCapo+ used as a MIDI controller playing sounds from iGrand Piano from IK Multimedia"

This app reminds me of the Oberheim Strummer on steroids. The Strummer was a MIDI hardware device from Oberheim that took in MIDI chords played on a keyboard and then sent them back out in different guitar playing styles. This app allows you to physically play the strings on a virtual guitar interface.

1973 Moog Minimoog Model D, owned by Kerry Livgren of "Kansas"

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This is an all original 1973 Moog Minimoog (down to 2 pin power cord) in full working condition. All pots, keys and controls work perfectly - delicious Saturn V analog technology. I have carefully photographed any blemishes - the most significant being the all rock 'n roll cigarette burn by the first key.

This would be a great collectible standalone, but as you can see I am the third owner, and the first was Kerry Livgren of America's contribution to progressive rock, "Kansas". Listen to the early albums and there this is ... I think collectors will consider the letter (written to the musician who sold it to me) in combination with the markings and serial number on the instrument as solid provenance. I was never a keyboard guy and this just deserves a better home than I'm giving such a great piece of musical history.

It comes with the same pro flight case it was shipped to me in ... happy to discuss shipping details with winning bidder before payment, and can work out an in person handover if you are in the Philly region. Have just used ebay's shipping engine as a baseline with uninsured UPS ground. Clearly though, if it is shipped, I can't warrant the functionality afterwards - but these things were well built back then."
