New Behringer 12 Voice Analog Synth will be Called the DeepMind12 and Have Built In Effects & More

BEHRINGER Synth Vol 5

Published on Jul 28, 2016 BEHRINGER

In this 5th video you can see the name of the synth is the DeepMind12, and it will include routable effects and a graphical screen. You can also see a Powered by KLARK TEKNIK on it. KLARK TEKNIK are makers of signal processors and mixers. Note there are 4 FX slots. Effects seen include various types of Chorus, RackAmp, Delay, Reverb. Mood Filter, Flanger, Enhancer, and Dual Pitch can also be spotted as well. Each affect appears to have a number of editable parameters. You can see the RackAmp has parameters for PRE, BUZ, PMC, CRM, DRV, LVL, LOW, HI, CAE. The DSP algorithms are from Klark Teknik and TC Electronic. There is also expected to be a dedicated iPad Editor. At :16 you can see what appears to be it resting on top on top (screen grab further below). Note the different Reverb types in the editor. At :21 in the video you can see the routing of the effects change. At :34 it appears you can stack the same effect types - you can see Hall Reverb in slot 1 and in slot 4 pictured below. Word is it will have a built in arpeggiator as well.

All parts here, including the artist's rendition.

Update: An update via Uli Bheringer on the new DeepMind12, spotted by Soviet Space Child:

"The DeepMind12 has 4 integrated FX Engines which can we used simultaneously but also synced to the synthesizer itself. Each engine is loaded with more than 30 high-quality FX algorithms from TC Electronic and Klark Teknik. These are true world-class FX, many of which have been derived from TC Electronic's acclaimed signal processors as well as Midas' high-end mixing consoles.

As a world's first, the DeepMind has built in Wifi and allows for full remote control of nearly all parameters - all through typical tablets.

While the price has not been confirmed nor any price indication been given to retailers, we like to manage expectations.
With approx. 4,000 components, the DeepMind12 is one of the most complex synthesizers that has ever been built. Due to its discrete design structure, it has vastly more components than you will likely find in any of the current synthesizers on the market.

While it has always been our company philosophy to work on very small margins, we would however never sacrifice component or manufacturing quality nor sell below cost. Like all our products, the DeepMind12 will come with a 3 Year Warranty program.

These are truly exciting times and thank you for all your interest and support :-)

Uli"

SYNTAR Hoodies & T-Shirts from Synthrotek

You'll find them at Synthrotek.

Note there are two versions for each.

"Long before anyone had coined the word 'keytar' and before anyone else thought of putting the guts of a synthesizer into a wearable performance keyboard, George Mattson created such an animal and dubbed it the Syntar. The front of the hoodie says 'Syntar...' The back shows the large graphic of the Syntar.

Now you can celebrate the Syntar in a whole new form!

There are two options for the graphics:
1. The front shows the large graphic of the Syntar (Large graphic on front, none on back).
2. The front of the t-shirt says 'Syntar...' The back shows the large graphic of the Syntar (Small graphic on front, large graphic on back)."

Improvisation LXIX: DSI Prophet '08

Published on Jul 27, 2016 Sacred Synthesis

"A mostly soft and muted piece using a pair of dreamy patches from the Prophet '08s. I wanted to showcase the darker side of the instrument, using sounds far from its typical bright and bristly reputation.

A steady pulsing rhythm suggests the lives and activity, the joys and tragedies, that once filled this abandoned house.

Instrumentation:
DSI Prophet '08 Keyboard (2)
DSI Prophet '08 Module
DSI Evolver Desktop
Hammond XPK 200L Pedalboard

Effects:
Reverb from Lexicon MX300
Delay from Alesis Nanoverb 2

Performed live and recorded directly to CD"

Offset Organism (Circuit, Bent SR-16 & Retroverb)

Published on Jul 27, 2016 HardtekStudios

"Download the audio track for FREE here-https://soundcloud.com/hardtek-studio...
Having fun playing with some odd, off set rhythms. Circuit is going strait to the mixer which is then feeding Logic. The circuit bent SR-16 is going into the Retroverb then into the mixer feeding Logic. The track was then treated with some more verb, EQ & compression."

Rephazer -Twilight is Falling (Octatrack, A4, OP-1, vPed)

Published on Jul 27, 2016 Rephazer

"Hello dear subscribers and visitors,

Here is a track I've made inspired by this very odd, vague and macabre animation movie called 'Twilight is Falling' which is created by Greg Elmensdorp so all credits regarding the used bits of animation in this video goes to him.

The video that belongs to the audio performance was faulty unfortunately.. so all other video is taken from various 'live jam takes' while creating and recording the track.

Technical details for the ones interested:

OP-1 is used for creating and arranging the song and is also the sound source for recording 'otherworldly sounds' to tape.
Octatrack is used for midi sequencing, classical violin and additional drums.
Analog Four is used for atmospheric sounds with lots of reverb
vPed is used for the bassline (Mono/Fury)
Reel-to-reel tape machine is used for playing 'other worldly radio sounds' recorded from the OP-1 on lowest (quality) speed.

I hope you like it and if you do.. please feel free to like, share, comment and subscribe!

Cheers."

Roland Jupiter-4 Analog Synthesizer (1978) - Dust in the Wind

"(c) 2016 vintage synthesizer demo track by RetroSound

all synthesizer sounds: Roland Jupiter-4 analog synthesizer from the year 1978
I used the arpeggiator in random mode for the main theme. You can also hear the JP-4 filter modulation with the very fast LFO.
recording: multi-tracking without midi
fx: reverb and delay"

Politica Machina - Vers 2

Published on Jul 27, 2016 karl welty

"Using the newer XC18 module for bass synth with filter. The desk top modules supplemented by patches from the rack mount stuff. All tones generated using neon based oscillators except kick and snare. Bass line was manually swept in sync with cv/gate and drums coming from a laptop. Each overdub was an improvisation with a new patch. This seems a good sampler of the many sounds which can be derived using these neon based tone generators, both musical and/or discordant as the mood strikes."
