tELHARMONIC Phase Modulation Algorithm (P OUT)

Published on Aug 19, 2015 MAKEN0ISE

"Each voice of the Phase-Modulation Algorithm uses 3 sine wave oscillators arranged as 2 modulators and one carrier and the modulators and carrier are phase-locked. This algorithm will create a large number of harmonically locked partials by reshaping the carrier (similar to wavefolding).

The CENTROID controls the frequency ratio of the modulation, and hence the brightness. The FLUX controls the depth of modulation, which determines the number of partials. When the FLUX is full CCW, this is the largest number of partials; when full CW, there is only one (a sine wave). The CENTROID controls two adjacent harmonic modulation partials from 1 to 8. For example, when
CENTROID is at 2.5, the modulator will be an even mix of harmonics 2 and 3.

ON THE RUN in 10 min. Tutorial - OSCiLLOT Modular synthesizer

Published on Aug 19, 2015 gattobus

"This is a tutorial I prepared for my students during the synth course in RockFactory music school in Siena (Italy)
I used Ableton Live 9 with M4L plugin OSCiLLOT by Max for Cats.
'On the run' is a classic piece of electronic music that I like very much to cover every now and then... so: here it is, again! :P

You can use this tutorial to get an idea on how this piece is done and try to apply the basics to every kind of synthesizer you might have.

Enjoy!"

Waldorf Q Rack Synthesizer SN 1409260000192

via this auction

"The Waldorf Q Series used to be the standard for virtual modeled analog synthesizers.

Boasting no less than 58 endless rotaries for vital synthesis parameters, this front panel lends the term 'generously appointed' new meaning.

Q Series synths leverage a remarkably flexible voicing section with up to five oscillators and two multimode filters per voice to deliver that peerless Waldorf sound.
There are up to 100 voices offering up to 5 oscillators including wavetable generators, 3 LFOs, 4 envelopes and 2 filters with a sophisticated routing method and all filter types that you expect from a Waldorf synthesizer. Furthermore, the Q offers unique Comb filter types in two flavours. This enables the Q not only to create polyphonic Chorus or Flanger effects but previously unheard athmos or pluck sounds with great life.

To top things off, the Waldorf Q has a very powerful arpeggiator and an even more powerful step sequencer. With 58 endless rotaries, the Waldorf Q easily doubles the number of controls of other synths."

Rhodes Chroma Expander Synthesizer

"That is right. You can believe your eyes. This is a fully functional Rhodes Chroma Expander. I have never seen one for sale on eBay or anywhere else over the last few years. I would dare say that this may be one of the few chances you will ever have to own one.

This Rhodes Chroma Expander, serial #0110, has been completely painstakingly restored internally over the last 3 1/2 years at Three Wave Music. Prior to that, additional restoration work was done by David Wilson at the Synth Museum in New Hampshire. You will want to refinish the wood to bring it back to its former glory as the outside is not where you will want it to be. There are also a couple of small spots where the front panel membrane is slightly lifted but it does not interfere in any way with performance of the unit. Three Wave Music secured it and made sure it was stable.

It is interesting to watch the interest in Arp 2600s. This is literally 6 of those synths [it actually isn't - totally different architecture and implementation - see etheory's comments below]; it is polyphonic, AND PROGRAMMABLE [correct]. It eats 2600's for breakfast. This one also has an upgraded power supply, and onboard MIDI with the CC+ upgrade. if you look at the invoice, you'll see there was a multitude of work done to bring it back to spec. $1700 of restoration at Three Wave Music alone. Operational manuals for the synth and CC+ are readily available on the Rhodes Chroma website."

via this auction

Note the video above was in the auction for demo purposes only. It is not the specific unit for sale. I couldn't find it in the archives, so up it goes.

"EM-25 is an interesting Soviet string-synth that looks and feels like a curious cross between Moog Opus 3 and ARP Solina. Like other Soviet synths, has got a distinct sound of its own and can easily compete with synths that have grown to become classics.

EM-025 HAS 3 SOUND SECTIONS : STRINGS, ORGAN, BRASS. All 3 sections You can use as independent sound or these will be mixed in any combination of 1, 2 or 3 sources with select buttons."
