VMachine hardware VST player - still useful in 2019?

Published on May 15, 2019 Floyd Steinberg

Don't miss the fan noise at 10:15. Update: I asked Floyd if the fan stays on and he replied: "Unfortunately, it's on all the time. In this video, the noise might seem a little louder than it is in reality, but it's loud enough to bei recognized in a studio environment."

"VMachine hardware VST player - still useful in 2019? Table of contents below! This is a small box running Linux and WINE (a Windows Emulator) which runs a VST host software. In this video, I'm playing some sounds of the preinstalled VST plugins and try to install my own plugins, with mixed success. Also: How to reset this to factory defaults when it isn't booting.

Table of contents:

"The Wavestation is Korg's take on the Sequential Circuits Prophet VS Vector Synthesizer. Korg also added 'wave sequencing' which is similar to wavetable scanning. The EX version adds 150 waveforms and 8 part multi-effects."

Folktek Aether/Materia/Mentalis TRIAD

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"Up for auction, Folktek Aether/Materia/Mentalis TRIAD, which has been discontinued by Folktek and is no longer in production. Very few were made. From the Folktek website:

Three instruments designed to function standalone or compliment, enhance and enrich the sound and possibilities of each other.

All three (Materia, Mentalis, Aether) can be obtained independently and will satisfy until they're joined by their soul mates. In the near future, you will be able to buy all three at once and they will include power jumpers so you only need one supply.

Some of the ways in which these three instruments work together;

- Aether oscillators pass through hands without audio cable.

- Aether CV controls Materia synthesis.

- Materia sequencing controls Aether, which is synchronized to Materia triggering but which can run on different timing.

- Materia can send Aether's sound back into Aether to use effects and mix with or without unaltered internal synthesis.

- Materia triggers Mentalis synthesis and travels through Mentalis circuitry to create new sounds.

- Mentalis accepts patching from Materia and allows the use of either modulation or any 4 patchable knobs.It also contains a removable patchbay to create a primitive memory for either or both Mentalis and Materia.

- Mentalis has a single touch plate which offers filtering, overdrive, etc. (similar to Materia) of Aether synthesis which also runs through the hands.

All three instruments can have power jumpered so only one supply is necessary. Mentalis is the power hub.

Comes with patch cables, manuals & power cable"

Rediscovering A Rare 70's Synthesizer with Tara Busch - Warren Huart: Produce Like A Pro

Published on May 14, 2019 Produce Like A Pro

"The Resynator is a monophonic pitch-tracking synthesizer with a pretty remarkable story. The instrument-controlled unit was invented by Don Tavel in the ’70s to track the pitch of any instrument plugged into it and produce synthesized sounds. As the world’s first synthesizer of its kind, the Resynator was way ahead of its time, but unfortunately never saw the proper production and distribution it deserved."
