"Will there ever be a keyboard NF-1? Well, a little time ago we built a 44-key plastic casing prototype. And it works, but it has some flaws...

A keyboard version will need to be strong and robust, even more than a desktop synth. The keyboard mechanics can be delivered more or less complete by Fatar, that's not a problem. And the knobs and buttons can be the same as on the desktop NF-1. But there's no simple off-the-shelf thing you can use as pitch bend/modwheel. 3D printing didn't give the necessary precision, and plastic moulding becomes prohibitively expensive for smaller production numbers. Or should we make a version without PB/modwheel... ?

Also, if we use the same 2mm steel casing as for the NF-1, things may become really heavy... So we would need really strong packaging to avoid shipping damage, and shipping may become very delicate and expensive... Or maybe a standard included dedicated flightcase?

So, for now the keyboard NF-1 is on hold. It seems us too much of risk, and by trying to reduce the risk, the keyboard NF-1 would get too expensive. But never say never, maybe a very limited edition one day? Share us your thoughts... !

A little secret... Our keyboard prototype has CV/Gate inputs :-)'"

Strymon Magneto Eurorack Module - Actually Patched

Published on Jul 16, 2019 ghostreceiver

"No amazing composition here, just some beat processing.
Just started recording video while I was having fun with the Strymon Magneto.
I haven't seen too many videos of this amazing module actually being patched.
You can hear both dry and wet signals.
About the patch: Noise Engineering Basimilus Iteritas Alter -> WMD/SSF MMF -> Strymon Magneto. Magento is receiving cv and gate from Make Noise Maths & Tempi. Wogglebug is providing some uncertainty to Maths. Malekko Varigate 8 is sequencing BIA and providing master clock."

"A shortened version of a work in progress."

Recording some sounds in a track from the Novation Supernova 2 Prox Platinum Edition.

"Most sounds are from supernova 2. The arp sounds are from Sci Prophet VS and the drums are programmed in Groove Agent from Cubase. I hope you enjoy this video."

"Bueller? Bueller?
Everyone has probably heard or seen this sampler at some point in their life (whether they knew or not) Probably most famously used by Depeche Mode, but its was the prime choice for many bands in the 80's. It had great sounding sample libraries to cover most of your bases. Or you could sample your own sounds in. It recorded at a whopping 8-bits with a total of 17.5 seconds. That might not sound like a lot by today's standards but it had a special quality that gave it a distinct character. The real magic came from the analog VCFs and VCAs that finish out the signal chain. On top of all that, it was also 8 part multi-timbral (also 8 voice polyphonic) with a built in sequencer. This could essentially run your most of your show back in the day!

This particular unit is in really great shape and had the original top 5 inch floppy drive replaced with a much faster and larger digital drive. OS 3.0 is installed, and it comes with original box.

Repair notes from our tech: Replaced filter and all power supply capacitors and tantalum capacitors used through out all remaining circuitry with Electrolytic type of same value. Cleaned entire panel board assembly including tact switches. Cleaned keybed assembly including all key contacts and cleaned dust and debris from inside chassis. Hard wired failing main power supply wiring harness to power supply PCB. Replaced 4016 logic IC. Installed floppy emulator and disabled remaining floppy"

"Winning combination of digital oscillators through analog filters and tons of modulation! There are 8 sequencers inside as well to run 8 separate parts, basically like 8 monosynths!"

"Digital synthesizer that can emulate analog characteristics quite well and provide plenty of classic digital synthesis methods too like wavetables, FM, and formant. Being 4 part multi-timbral allows you to layer up and blend a wide variety of sounds to create some pretty complex tonal pallets"
