v1.3.1 OS Update for The John Bowen Synth Design Solaris Synthesizer

via John Bowen Synth Design

"I am really excited to announce our first major OS "feature upgrade" for the Solaris synthesizer in quite a while - v1.3.1!

There's a number of new features and changes added with v1.3.1 OS:

1) Joystick position is now stored in the preset.
2) Assign buttons and Unison Chord stack now stored with the Preset.
3) A Random Tune parameter both in a preset and at the global level. This works per voice, and only affects the whole voice’s tuning.
4) Preset names and categories of the current bank are now loaded into a memory cache, making selection and viewing of them faster.
5) New MIDI Realtime on/off in the global MIDI page to send/receive Start/Stop commands.
6) Ribbon now outputs MIDI controller on CC18 & CC19.
7) Solaris remembers the last presets selected when you turn it off, so it will resume where you were.
8) Global override parameters added for Sustain and Expression Pedals.
9) Changed the Mod Source listing of Ped1 and Ped2 to "ExpPed and "SusPed" to make it more clear.
10) The ribbon Offset parameter now works differently. It adjusts the "neutral" point from the left end to the right end of the ribbon.
11) FX Bypass now does not alter the on/off state of the Preset’s effects parameters, but truly bypasses the FX bus, and stays bypassed when selecting through presets or using the Compare feature.
12) All remaining system bugs fixed. These include numerous display-related issues (parameters not being refreshed, wrong pages appearing where they shouldn’t, etc..)

This new OS works with both detented and non-detented encoder front panels. If you are a Solaris owner, this is a 'must have' update! You can download v1.3.1 from the Data Files section of the Solaris Forum (for Owners only).

Moog Emerson Modular Synthesizer System Review

Published on Jul 20, 2017 SweetwaterSound

"Daniel Fisher, Sweetwater’s maven of modular madness, gives a quick run-through of the Emerson Moog Modular synthesizer. Sweetwater is proud to be chosen to sell the final unit (third of three) that Moog Music will build of this historic synthesizer.

Because it was built using only ’60s-era technology and techniques, the Emerson Moog Modular doesn’t ring out with crystal-clear digital perfection. Subtle distortions and noise of every kind assault every note, and that is the secret of the clone’s success."

"The 3HP Paperface Euro Modules

If anyone remembers my dsp-Host with a 8-pin DIP socket on the panel the Paperface DSP works in the same way. You make your own modules.

It is built on the ATtiny85 but uses the TinyAudioBootloader.

The name 'Paperface' comes from the classic Serge look with white panels.

The TinyAudioBootloader makes it possible to upload new firmware through the audio out port without a programmer just replaying a wavefile at startup.

The module has 3 Analog CV jacks, 2 with attenuators and an audio out jack."

HYDRA: 6 Bandpass Delays

HYDRA: 6 Bandpass Delays from Station 252 on Vimeo.

"Testing the new HYDRA card for Tiptop Audio Z-DSP. Playing with the second algorithm: 6 Bandpass Delays.

Synth Voice: ONE playing DOTS sound > Z2040 (AM by Z4000, FM by a second Z4000)

Sending ONE into 6 Bandpass Delays on Z-DSP via aux sends on the Mackie mixer.

Kick Drum: TTA BD808

BD signal is sent (via aux send on the Mackie mixer) to Chronoblob (TTA Z2040 in the feedback loop, WMD HiPass filter on the output). Chronoblob is sent (via aux send on the Mackie mixer) to a second Z-DSP running Halls Of Valhalla Asgard.

Hats: a mix of TTA HH808 and a DOTS sound fom TTA ONE run through Roland Demora, mix modulated by TTA Trigger Riot

Sequenced with Tiptop Audio Circadian Rhythms, Trigger Riot and Z8000
