"Four Roland Juno-60 and MKS-50 ditties. Sorry for the bad focus, I did the video quickly and didn't notice it while recording."

"Quick and dirty demo of the Ambika with 6x Polivoks filters I have for sale. I flipped through the first 40 or so presets. Sorry for the audio, ran stereo out from my audio interface directly into the camera, but it's still a little sub par. No external processing except for mild reverb added in Ableton."

RIP Isao Tomita

Isao Tomita When you wish upon a Star

Published on Jan 12, 2015 SEVILLA ANDALUCIA ESPAÑA

This is a tough one to post (ALL RIP posts are tough to post). It has come to my attention that Isao Tomita passed away last Thursday, May 5. He was 84 years old. His music was pure magic as you can see above. That video, and that performance, however brief as it was, is probably my favorite synth performance of all time. It is absolute magic. I've posted it several times in the past but it always appears to get pulled down, so enjoy this while you can. Hopefully this one will stay up.

Tomita has been featured and referenced in countless posts here on MATRIXSYNTH. He was active in the synth world until the end. To say he will be missed is an understatement.

You all know who he is and what he meant to the synth community. I am so going to miss this man. Where you are Tomita-san, thank you for the magic.

Isao Tomita on Wikipedia:

"Isao Tomita (冨田勲 Tomita Isao?, 22 April 1932 – 5 May 2016)[1], often known simply as Tomita, was a Japanese music composer, regarded as one of the pioneers of electronic music[2][3] and space music,[4] and as one of the most famous producers of analog synthesizer arrangements.[5] In addition to creating note-by-note realizations, Tomita made extensive use of the sound design capabilities of his instrument, using synthesizers to create new sounds to accompany and enhance his electronic realizations of acoustic instruments.[5] He also made effective use of analog music sequencers[2] and the Mellotron and featured futuristic science fiction themes,[3] while laying the foundations for synth-pop music[6] and trance-like rhythms.[7] Many of his albums are electronic versions and adaptations of famous classical music pieces and he received four Grammy Award nominations for his 1974 album Snowflakes Are Dancing.[3]"

"2nd Sense Audio has released 1.0.3 of their dynamic waveshaping synthesizer plug-in WIGGLE. The new version adds Wave Type Mix function which allowing more sound changing possibilities.

WIGGLE 1.0.3 update:

Added Wave Type Mix function: the Type in WAVE section now has two selections and a mix parameter between them, allowing more sound changing possibilities; 
Fixed an issue and now monophonic modulations will not retrigger on each step of the sequencer; 
Fixed a bug that could cause occasional Logic AudioUnit validation failure; 
Updated Operation Manual.

WIGGLE main features:

Control points – WIGGLE has 4 operators. Each operator's wavetable can be dynamically customized by its 4 control points. Each control point has its independent built-in LFO. These build the basic characters of a sound.
Other synthesis possibilities – Free-drawing PD (Phase Distortion) curve, FM (Frequency Modulation) and Morphing offer deep sonic potentials.
Color coded FM Matrix – The FM Matrix clearly indicates the modulator/carrier relationship between the operators using color coded knobs.
Modulations – 8 free drawing LFO/Envelope, 8 step-based and 4 specialized modulators can be drag-and-droped onto most of the synth parameters.
Morph pad – Morphing between 4 variations of a preset captured on the Morph Pad multiplies the degree of sonic expressiveness. You can also draw an arbitrary path to automate the morph process.
Built-in effects – 7 built-in effects can also be modulated and make a WIGGLE sound more interesting. 4 Operators could go through duo multi-mode filter parallel.
Step sequencer – The sequencer offers you precise control over each step for creating musical pattern with human feel. The resulting sequence can be dragged out as a MIDI file.
Built-in recorder – A simple built-in recorder helps you quickly sample a sound tweaking process. The resulting audio can be dragged out as a wave file.
Retina ready – High resolution images of the user interface are prepared for better viewing experience on retina displays.
Interactive guide – A short interactive tutorial walks you through the basic functions of WIGGLE upon its first launch. You will get to a good start point in minutes.
Compatibility – VST, AU, AAX, Standalone, Windows/Mac OS X, 32/64 bit supported

Pricing and Availability:

WIGGLE 1.0.3 is a free update for all customers, available immediately through the official website. WIGGLE is available for $99 on 2ndSenseAudio.com.
