ELEKTRONIKA EM25 - Vintage Analog String synthesizer USSR Soviet Russian

Published on Jan 8, 2019 GLvintageSHOP

"EM-25 is an interesting Soviet string-synth that looks and feels like a curious cross between Moog Opus 3, Yamaha SK15 and ARP Solina. Like other Soviet synths, has got a distinct sound of its own and can easily compete with synths that have grown to become classics.

Organ has great vibe - I like its etheral and gentle vibe in upper register. It has one percussive drawbar (again a plus for total tonal variety).
EM-25's organ is quite interesting, potent and woody with full registers, almost acoustic sounding. With a touch of LXP-1 reverb, a single drawbar turns into real Cathedral organ!

Synth section (called brass on EM-25) is VCO fixed preset on both, with full filter section - but only one filter for all voices.

All said, EM-25 is unique and rare and a real stringer."

Published on Jan 8, 2019 cuckoomusic

"It’s day 8 of #jamuary2019 and I have the privilege to give you a sneak peek of #ZOIA by @empress_effects It’s a digital modular in a box. No computer needed to make patches. There are lot's of modular building blocks in this box, and it's totally up to you to make it work and sound the way you want it to work. There's MIDI, CV and expressive pedal input.

It’s already great, but the Beta period is very important. Follow Empress Effects to catch the release announcement when the time is right for that."

DX5 showing the Roland JX8P



"* * Just talking and playing some sounds. This is a previously recorded video * *
A quick tour on some of the vintage JX8P sounds (both mine, which I used in my covers, and factory presets).
Some hiss and clicks present.
No external effects used. Just the JX8P dry outs. Though the JX can be a bit limited in terms of variety, it can sound f a t.

audiowerkstatt midi-clock-divider v2

audiowerkstatt midi-clock-multiplier - demonstration of all functions and settings
audiowerkstatt din-restarter - demonstration of all functions and settings
audiowerkstatt din2midi2din - demonstration of all functions and settings


"The audiowerkstatt midi-clock-divider v2 divides the MIDI-clock of the MIDI-master, whereby the MIDI-slave runs correspondingly slower. The division-ratios are 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, ..., 1/8, 1/9.

If the division-factor 1/1 is selected, the MIDI-clock is simply passed through. With the division-factor of 1/2 the MIDI-slave runs at half the speed. So 16ths-notes will be 8th-notes and the loop is twice as long.

Very useful to double the loop length of the MIDI-slave (eg MIDI-sequencer or [audio-]looper). When using the division-factor 1/8 and an originally one bar long loop runs over 8 bars.

And good for experimental musicians, especially if an odd division-factor is selected and MIDI-master and slave seem to be not in sync, but from time to time come together in perfect sync.

You can also set whether only the newly created MIDI-clock and mmc commands (start, stop, continue) are sent or the, at the MIDI-in incoming data, will be mixed with that.

All settings will be saved and restored at startup.

Details can be found in the manual."
