New iConnectivity mio™ Advanced MIDI Interfaces
"Give your MIDI a big upgrade!
New line of ultra-versatile MIDI problem solvers offering support for 0 to 2 computers simultaneously, plus built-in MIDI merging, filtering, remapping, and routing
The mio™ Advanced MIDI interfaces are here! It’s a new line of MIDI problem-solvers from iConnectivity. Just plug in to connect and collaborate, in the studio or on stage. These are reinvented MIDI interfaces that work standalone or with up to six Macs/PCs at the same time.
They all feature built-in MIDI merging, filtering, remapping, and routing functions so you don’t need extra hardware units. mio10 has 10x10 5-pin MIDI, the mio4 has 4x4, and both support everything: USB MIDI, Ethernet MIDI, and more.
The affordable mio2 (2x2 5-pin MIDI) supports two Macs/PCs at the same time.
iConnectivity now has a comprehensive line of innovative MIDI and audio interfaces to handle modern setups of all sizes.
The mio™ line handles everything from essential up to extreme MIDI setups, in the studio and on stage. They're all USB MIDI Class-Compliant, so they plug-'n-play - no drivers become outdated, and other musicians only have to plug in to collaborate.
Famed musician/sound designer/MIDI wizard Richard Devine has been working with a pre-production unit: "iConnectivity's new mio10 is the dream MIDI system I've been waiting for! Its routing system is very flexible, and it's a breeze to use. Absolute class all the way. The Rolls Royce of MIDI interfaces!"

"Very slow and a bit old-school.
Two patches running in a performance, both using the 002's Animator, which is a kind of parameter sequencer which runs individually for each voice. On both patches here it's controlling individual oscillator levels, plus LFO rates and amounts.
The thing down by my left hand is a Launch Control and I'm using the pads to trigger the second patch, which is making all the old-school noise and modulated sine wave sounds.

2. Antithesis
"Looping sequences in the 002, all different lengths so they phase with each other. Two short (high, sustained sound); one medium (bass) and one very long (discordant brassy strings) where I mess with the loop length. My left hand is working the nanoKontrol mapped to filter and volume on the 002 parts. Percussion and FX from MachineDrum, LXP-15 and VoiceWorks."
3. Rosebud
"This is an oldie for me. I came up with these ideas back in the mid eighties, but I just wanted to get them back in my head ... well, they've never really left my head but it's a long time since my hands played them (and doesn't it show).
All sounds from my Modal 002; reverb and delay are an LXP 15II; and sequencing is from Genome on iPad hooked up to an iConnectMidi4+. (Glad my iPad 2 is still good for something.)"
4. 002 Jam, May 2016
"I've had my 002 nearly three years now. It still feels very fresh :)
For those who know don't this synth, this is an eight-part multi-timbral performance. (The synth is twelve voice and can be twelve-part multi-timbral.) Six of the parts are running their own sequences, which are up to 32 steps of up to one whole-note length. The two remaining parts are mapped across the keyboard. I'm using the Nano-Kontrol faders to control part level, and the rotary knobs controls filter cut-off on each part.
Delay and reverb are from my trusty old LXP-15II."

"Emu's legendary Sp12 Turbo slightly second only to the SP1200. Freshly back from a complete check up and minor tune-up and new battery from Bruce Forat, this is one of the cleanest units we have ever seen. We all know that legendary 12bit crunch from our favorite Daft Punk records and classic hip hop records. No plug-ins have yet to emulate the real thing, so don't miss out on this incredible tool for your classic house and hip-hop tracks.
One of the main advantages over an SP1200 is the battery stores whatever you've done to memory after you turn it off, so when it's back on it's all there where you left off! Another key advantage is being able to transfer samples via midi using software! And of course, SP1200's have sky rocketed in price, putting them out of the reach of most people."

Oberheim OB 8 with Midi & Aftertouch

"Oberheim OB8 with factory midi in excellent functional and cosmetic condition.The OB 8 comes with a travel case and original OB8 operating manual and patch cassette.
This unit has been modified in 3 ways. 1) The original problematic Panasonic keyboard has been replaced with a new custom Fatar keyboard. This keyboard has a built in aftertouch sensor and was installed by Retrolinear. 2) A sophisticated AT circuit was installed by New England Analog and includes a Pyxis controller and external pressure pad controller. Check out YouTube videos by New England Analog and the Pyxis control system.The Pyxis controller allows the AT to control the VCO, VCF, VCA, and LFO by intensity and speed. A series of toggle switches on the back of the synth allow a variety of AT combinations such as pitch bending up, down, or Osc 1 up and Osc 2 down. Do a search on NEA's Pyxis controller and its capabilities and 3) bass boost which was done by replacing the 100k R505 and R506 resistors with 1M resistors(4) and building a network of 4x of 120K resistors and 0.0056 film caps in series and connecting the small network in parallel to the new 1M resistors.This modification helps create a better low end somewhere in between a standard OBX-A and an OB 8.
This particular unit was in great functional shape when purchased and I invested another $2500 with NEA and Retrolinear on the refurbishing and mods.The rebuild work done includes:
replaced capacitors in PSU
Repaired faulty envelope generator release control on upper four voices
Installed new 5V bridge rectifier
replaced 40109 chips and top voice board 3080 chips
Replaced calibration summing TL 071 Op amp and the two TL 072 output OP amps.
Installed Fatar keyboard with factory aftertouch sensor
Installed aftertouch circuitry and Pyxis AT controller and touch sensor pad
all 16 oscillators tuned and calibrated.
Loaded factory preset patches"

"Analog Stereofilter fürs Eurorack! Ich nutze das gute Stück als Filter für meine Drumsubgruppe. In diesm Video habe ich den Synthesizer JDXi von Roland mal durch das Filter geschickt um damit mal darzustellen, wie herrlich warm und frisch ein digitaler Synthesizer klingen kann. Das Filter eignet sich hervorragend für die analogisierung von digitalen oder virtuell analogen Klangerzeugern und wertet diese um ein vielfaches auf. Es muss also nicht gleich eine teurer Real Analogsynthesizer sein.
Ich hoffe euch gefällt was Ihr seht und vor allem hört."
Googlish:
"Analog stereo filter for Eurorack! I use a good piece as a filter for my Drumsubgruppe. In diesm video I have the synthesizer JDXi Roland once sent through the filter in order to present times how wonderfully warm and fresh, a digital synthesizer can sound. The filter is ideal for analogization of digital or virtual analog sound generators and evaluates them on many times. So there must be a more expensive Real Analog Synthesizer is not equal.
I hope you like what you see and hear mainly."
