SidTracker 64 Now Available


iTunes: SidTracker64 - Daniel Larsson

"SidTracker64 is the ultimate chiptune production package tool for the iPad. It emulates the SID sound chip from the dominating home computer of the 80s - The Commodore 64.

Get started immediately with the bundled songs and sounds in various styles, from old skool bleeps n blips to new school with multi speed and advanced table editing. Explore, remix and make new songs based on the old classic c64 game tracks “Commando” by Rob Hubbard or “Blood Money” by Fredrik Segerfalk, and the brand new youtube remix hit of the “True Survivor” Kung Fury soundtrack, all included in the app.

SidTracker64 is a retro-style music creation tool and synthesizer combined with modern features such as midi keyboard and controller input, Audiobus 2 and Inter App Audio for recording in your favourite DAW-app. Midi clock in lets you sync to other apps and hardware drum machines and synthesizers, such as the Elektron Analog Four.

SidTracker 64 can be used for live looping, making complete songs, and the minimum latency makes it suitable for live use. Export your music to Dropbox and e-mail as audio or .sid and even .prg files which you can run on a real Commodore 64.

Editing is based on hands on touch interaction or midi input instead of the hardcore style of direct data editing. Record live to a metronome or input notes step-style. Real SID-composing has never been simpler and more fun!

Dijkstar Music Handclap Proto Demo

Update: video is back... and again...

"Demonstration from the RiDrum Handclap Proto THC-01, see for more information on WWW.DIJKSTAR.COM"

"The Handclap proto is finished, and it sounds great, it’s almost identical to the original 808 handclap but with some extra features like tune, claps speed and claps count, the 808 clap is built up with 4 “claps”, in other words there are 4 short noise pulses with a short decay that makes the “crackle” or clap sound and they are all fixed and not adjustable but with this new module you can choose how many claps or noise pulses you want from 1 to 10 and you can adjust the speed of the claps, the speed is also controllable with a CV source.
Also in the original handclap the last clap or pulse has a longer decay time and that’s also adjustable on this new module.

And there is a tune parameter on this handclap, maybe the first analog handclap with tune and this is done with a BPF filter, a handclap is generated with a noise source and noise has normally no pitch, but to generate a handclap with noise, the noise is equalized with a sharp boost in the mid frequencies and vary the boost frequency simulate a nice tune effect, the tune is also controllable with a CV source.

For the ambient noise, or the “reverb or hall noise”, there is a level en release parameter added.

This module will also get a new design compare to the TK-09 Kickdrum, the module will be smaller, 14HP instead of 20HP and the 6.3mm jacks and PSU are being replaced with 3.5mm mini jacks and eurorack PSU socket and to make the modules smaller the internal electronics are built up with modern SMD technology, with normal THD technology it’s not possible to made it fit on one circuit board.

Therefore the TK-09 Kickdrum will also get a redesign to fit with the Handclap, see for more information the Kickdrum page."

Wayne Joness - Roland GR-300 Filter LFO Modulation Custom Upgrade Analog Synthesizer


Published on Jun 18, 2015 WayneJoness

"http://www.joness.com/gr300/GR-300.htm

A Roland GR-300 is modified that the LFO can modulate both the pitch (standard) and the Low Pass Filter (VCF). This mode was originally suggested my Mike at metalbox.com, and was posted on the vintage Roland guitar synth forum in August 2013."
