Amazing FM synthesizer with 6 operators and 8 voices of polyphony

SYNSET FM is a complete 6 operators FM synthesizer with the addition of 3 dedicated FM drums channels, a sequencer, 2 arpeggiators and an effect section. The programming of the voices is very user friendly, thanks to the FaderOS and the 5 encoders. 2 more controls are provided to control your prefered effect in realtime. No limit to experiment with FM synthesis and create your own amazing sounds.

5 parts pattern sequencer and 2 arpeggiators

The SYNSET FM is designed to be very intuitive and provides everything you need for easy and quick music creation. You will be able to program great patterns and build a complete track without the need of a computer or other instruments. All this is controlled by a user friendly 16-step sequencer. A digital mixer is present to set every instrument level and a special mute function is featured for easy and quick live stage usage. A 16 keys keyboard allows to program the patterns or even play live with various modes availables (Sequencer, Live or Arpeggios). When edited, it is possible to save the complete pattern context on 16 availables pattern memories. A song mode is also available to assemble your patterns and make a complete song.

Control your existing gear

SYNSET FM has a dedicated external track allowing to simply control another instrument through USB, MIDI or CV/Gate interfaces.

FX section

An FX section is also present providing delay, chorus, distortion and even a resonant lowpass filter with LFO.

Complete and professional connectivity

The presence of USB, MIDI and CV/Gate allows the instrument to be interfaced with the widest range of instruments and devices. The MIDI implementation is very complete and allows to control all synth and sound parameters.

"Latest firmware installed: 1.3.1. Pristine condition. As new condition.

Stability is much improved than the early releases (that everyone hates on) - the key is to assembling & saving kits in one location (internal memory, SD card or flash drive).

Otherwise:
* massive internal drum kit & instrument library
* really nice drum/ chromatic key pads,
* USB/SDcard & MIDI io & storage
* Bizarre blue LEDs (you can turn these off)
* battery power - (a couple of hours usage)"

Prophet VS

Published on Apr 29, 2018 Miguel d'Oliveira

"Checking out some original presets from 1986 on this Sequential Circuits Prophet VS
Fantastic sounds. I can see why it is so highly rated and why it was used by so many amazing artists: Brian Eno, Trent Reznor, Apollo 440, Depeche Mode, Vince Clarke, Kraftwerk, Vangelis..."

Synth Stuff Ep. 39 - Novation X-Station

Published on Apr 29, 2018 tritonrecordings

"In 2004, something thought it would be cool to combine a MIDI controller, synthesizer, and an audio interface. The synth engine is derived from Novation's Supernova and it reminds me a bit of a Korg MS2000 with it's early/mid-2000's VA sound. There aren't many keyboard/interface combinations like this out there so check this out if that's your thing."

OP-1, Microbrute, and Tacos

"OP-1 arpeggiator through Moog MF-108M ClusterFlux, with Arturia Microbrute on crushed bass. Everything going through Elektron Analog heat for sizzle. Video is a taco truck i visited after leaving a bar in downtown LA late at night. Tacos were amazing."

Nexus by Just The 5

Published on Apr 26, 2017 Lower West Side Studio

"Modular synthesizer composition featuring SWAN & Phoenix modular synthesizers, Moog Sub 37 and Yamaha Motif XF6.

Sort of Blade Runner-ish

Done in a single take with no post production short of some level balancing."

New Modules from Joranalogue Coming to SUPERBOOTH18

via Joranalogue:

"As you've certainly noticed, Superbooth is nearly upon us. While gear heads and knob wigglers from around the world flock to Berlin, I'd like to invite you to my booth (E266, right at the entrance) to check out the new modules I'll be presenting there.

A quick introduction: my goal with Joranalogue is to introduce new ideas and techniques to the Eurorack platform. As an electronics engineer, I've spent years preparing, researching and developing new high-performance analogue synth circuits. Last year, I finally introduced my first modules: Switch 4, Test 3, Mix 3 and Compare 2. I'm passionate about getting things right, working closely with performing musicians and providing them with reliable hands-on hardware, designed and made in Belgium.

So, here's what's in store for 2018:

Filter 8 - Multimode Filter/8-Phase Oscillator
Representing the cutting edge in modular analogue VCF design, Filter 8 offers more possibilities and higher fidelity in 12 HP than ever before.

Select 2 - Dual Gated Precision Control Voltage Processor
A 'Swiss Army knife' for your modular system, Select 2 provides two highly accurate gate-controlled voltage processors in 6 HP.

Link 2 - Precision Buffered Multiples
2 HP buffered multiples. Low offset, noise and distortion: suitable for any signal.

Add 2 - Precision Adder/Averager
2 HP adder/averager. Low offset, noise and distortion: suitable for any signal. Each section can be set separately to add or average."
