Yamaha Joins with Allihoopa to Give TENORI-ON Musicians the Optimal Sharing Experience

The press release:

"BUENA PARK, Calif. (March 13, 2018) – Yamaha has partnered with social network Allihoopa, empowering users of the Yamaha TNR mobile music-making apps to share their work and collaborate online.

The two iOS apps make up the mobile version of the Yamaha TENORI-ON, the groundbreaking electronic musical instrument. These apps allow intuitive music creation via a simple, user-friendly interface, without the need for specialized training.

The Allihoopa partnership allows musicians to collaborate with the world using a mobile device. TNR-iOS users create music using the original TNR-i and its electronic-music counterpart, TNR-e. Once they have a finished piece, they can “Drop” it and share directly with the Allihoopa community. From there, others can 'Pick Up' the track, add recording elements of their choosing and 'Drop' it back to Allihoopa for further collaboration.

'TNR-i and TNR-e users now have a new way to share and collaborate with others,' says Nate Tschetter, marketing manager, Music Production, Yamaha Corporation of America. 'Yamaha and Allihoopa encourage creativity by helping music-makers around the world share ideas and inspire each other.'

Tiptop Z8000 + Sequential Switch Videos by Station 252

Tiptop Z8000 + Sequential Switch part 1 from Station 252 on Vimeo.

"I new about the existence of sequential switches for a long time and recently finally had a chance to try it out. I was so impressed with the results that I bought two Doepfer A-151 Quad Sequential Switches. Those little gems are an amazing addition to Tiptop Z8000 sequencer

This video is the first patch I came up with.

Z8000 - 4 vertical 4 step sequencers are connected to the first A-151, they share the same clock and are simultaneously reset to 3 steps by the Tiptop Trigger Riot. The output of the sequential switch is connected to Tiptop QuantiZer which in turn is driving Z3000 oscillator.

Circadian Rhythms - channels 5-8 are connected to the second A-151, the output of which is driving a pair of Z4000 VC ADSRs for The VCA and Filter FM.

The Sequential switches are reset to 8 step by the Circadian Rhythms.

The voice is quite simple: Z3000 sine wave > Tiptop Fold Processor (fold is modulated by a sine wave doepfer LFO and the offset is modulated by the horizontal 16 step sequence from Z8000 slewed by Make Noise Math) > Z2040

The bass drum is Tiptop BD808

That looks sharp!

via this auction

"Vintage and rare Teisco 110f 2vco analogue synth. Has had custom aluminium end cheeks fitted and a set of bespoke aluminium knobs. The slider caps are vintage roland replacements.
The condition is well used with a few scratches on the panel but fully working, It does have a few scratchy faders however so it is advisable to expect to have this serviced at some point soon! That said there are no major problems, everything sounds as it should and is 1 hell of a fat sounding machine !"

New DIY Moog Synth Coming to Moogfest will be the Sub-Harmonicon

Details on this years' Moogfest synth in via Moog Music:

"Build the Sub-Harmonicon at Moogfest 2018

WANT TO BUILD AN UNRELEASED SYNTHESIZER WITH MOOG ENGINEERS?

Get the most out of Moogfest with the Engineer Pass, a special ticket that provides VIP access to the festival and the unique opportunity to work alongside Moog Music Engineers during a two-day synth-building workshop. This behind-the-scenes experience gives you the opportunity to engage Moog engineers while gaining insight into the art of electronic design.

This year’s workshop will build the Sub-Harmonicon, a brand-new electronic instrument inspired by the Trautonium, the Rhythmicon, and the Schillinger System. It is a semi-modular harmonic kaleidoscope that divides into itself until everything that is up becomes down.

With the Engineer VIP Pass, you’re delving into synthesis at the foundational level—and you come away with your own limited-edition, unreleased Moog synthesizer, hand-built by you.

Not only does it grant you exclusive access to a premium workshop, it opens all doors to other Moogfest 2018 activities.

This means:
• VIP Access to all events and exclusive areas.
• Complimentary food and beverage in select areas.
• Prioritized access to workshop registration.
• Access to a dedicated Festival Concierge who organizes your Engineer class schedule and is available for any questions you have may have.
• A custom embroidered patch patch representing the 2018 Engineer Workshop class.

The 2018 Engineer Pass is extremely limited in number and will only be available while supplies last."
