Studio Electronics V2 Boomstars


Published on Feb 21, 2018 Perfect Circuit Audio

"We had a chance to play with the new Boomstar synths from Studio Electronics. They all have a similar architecture with two VCOs, noise generator, two ADSR envelope generators, an LFO and a filter based on a vintage synthesizer. The 8106 has a Roland style filter, 4072 with and Arp filter, SEM with SEM filter and SE80 with CS-80 filters. In this video all four synths are sequenced with an Arturia Beatstep-Pro, the 8106 makes a kick sound, the SEM a snare sound, the 4072 a bass sound wth oscillator sync, and the SE80 makes a pseudo chord sound with one oscillator droning at the root note and the other oscillator being voltage controlled.

Synth Jams I Album by Marcus Padrini



Marcus Padrini, featured numerous times here on MATRIXSYNTH, has a new release out titled Synth Jams. Above are three videos featuring his music: 522 - [previously posted here], Synth Odyssey - [previously posted here], Influences [previously posted here]. Details on the release including links to your favorite platforms follow:

"Synth Jams I is a compilation of tracks recorded live using analog and digital synthesizers and drum machines. The songs were created from improvisations with different instruments and were captured practically the moment after their creation.

With influences from the songs and timbres of classic and new artists like Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre, Erik Norlander and Kebu, besides several works of electronic/instrumental music, the tracks of the album do not have a common style, but they share a main element: the sounds created with synthesizers.

In this process, the idea was to interact with the instruments, create and manipulate sounds in real time. It was also part of the plan to leave the computer and music production software out of this process. Therefore, anything that could not be played simultaneously live was performed by a MIDI sequencer (Roland MC808).

Gear used on Synth Jams I
►Analog Synths: Arp Odyssey, Moog Sub 37, Dave Smith Instruments Mopho Keyboard & TETRA, Behringer Deepmind 12.
►Digital Synths: Korg Radias, Roland JP8080, Roland SH-32, Access Vírus Indigo, Yamaha DX7II, Nord Stage 2EX.
►Drum Machines & Grooveboxes: Roland MC-808, Roland TR-626, MFB 522, Korg Electribe ER-1, Novation Circuit.

Bob Moog Foundation Features Two Compilations by Pioneering Synthesist Joel Chadabe.


via the Bob Moog Foundation

"We are proud feature two new compilations of music by internationally recognized pioneering synthesist Joel Chadabe. The albums, Electric Sound and Chadabe & Moog, which include compositions from 1966-1987, will be available through the Foundation’s online store. All proceeds from the sale of the CDs will benefit its educational and historic preservation projects."

Chadabe was an early adaptor of the Moog modular synthesizer, using it in compositions as early as 1966. In 1967, while director of the Electronic Music Studio at State University of New York at Albany, he proposed the concept for a new electronic music system. He then designed the legendary CEMS (Coordinated Electronic Music Studio) System and, with support from a SUNY research grant, commissioned Robert Moog to build it..."
