PEARL SYNCUSSION SY-1 *Soundgas Serviced* Vintage Drum Synth SN 508582

"Serviced and modified with:
• Separate outputs for channels one and two on a TRS (stereo) jack
• CV Mod – allows you to “play” the Syncussion via a CV in.

These are stunning and powerful drum synths: trigger via a drum pad, drum machine or output from your DAW. We love these and have two in the studio which we trigger from our 808. The low end on a Syncussion leaves the 808 seeming a tad weedy…

This one will ship once our techs have finished with it – we modify the output to TRS jack for separate outputs for each channel and also with CV ins for each channel for more musical interactivity…

It uses a 12v DC 300mA, centre negative unit power supply (not supplied).

There are currently no known operational faults with this unit – some crackle may be possible when the unit has not been used for some time – this should clear with use.

In superb cosmetic condition with only minor signs of age or wear across the unit. The wooden case is very clean with some dings and scuffs around the edges. See photos for more information on cosmetic condition."

"Up for grabs is a vintage Roland RS-202 synthesizer. If this thing could talk...Well used but works as it should. The RS-202 was a polyphonic string synthesizer similar to an electronic organ to provide full polyphony across a five-octave keyboard. Lots of tape with songs and keys adhered to unit. This was in the family and was used exclusively for live shows. Lots of mojo."

"Rolands first compact synthesizer. Made from 1973-1981. Own a piece of musical history. Works as it should. Original power cord. Comes with pedal switch and expression pedal. Not sure if pedals go with unit but they're included. Do your research before purchasing. Condition is good to great with only tape residue in certain areas of instrument."

"Unit is completely working, even the membrane buttons. It really has its own sound characteristic which sounds beautiful! The octave button printing has worn off, there are various wear spots overall (check pics), and the knob has some scratches. Power cable is included."

Moog Grandmother vs Minimoog Model D reissue


Published on Aug 2, 2019 Starsky Carr

"It might look like a toy but it can be a bit of a beast..

As they're both 3 oscillator Moog's I thought I’d look at the most famous alongside the most recent of Moog’s monosynths.

https://4mscompany.com/SWN

The Spherical Wavetable Navigator (SWN) is a six-channel synthesizer that makes it easy to create slowly morphing drones, polyphonic melodies, evolving sequences, and rich textures. The SWN features six wavetable oscillators with independent pitch, level, and waveform controls. Six LFOs (Low Frequency Oscillators) can be used as modulation sources and/or envelopes, making it easy to add dynamic motion to your patch. Each channel is a full voice and can be “played” using the top row of buttons, the internal LFOs, or note-change detection on the 1V/oct jacks. The SWN ships with 12 three-dimensional (spherical) wavetables and an easy interface which allows you to record and edit custom wavetables from live audio. Open-source software for Mac, Windows, and Linux called SphereEdit can be freely downloaded and allows you computer to create, edit, and convert .wav files into Spherical wavetables to transfer into the SWN with an audio cable."

Arpticles (new Mozaic preset) - DIY for iOS Audio App


Published on Aug 2, 2019 Bram Bos

"In the upcoming Mozaic update I'll add the new Arpticles preset: a hybrid between an arpeggiator and a particle generator:

Arpticles will generate a (configurable) stream of particles based on the MIDI notes that are played/held.

Obviously you can use this preset as a starting point for making even more sophisticated scripts if you like!"

iTunes: Mozaic Plugin Engine - Bram Bos

DIY for iOS music app:

"Create your own MIDI plugins: MIDI filters, generative music tools, basic sequencers, MIDI control panels, chaos experiments... Let your imagination take you places.

Mozaic runs inside your favorite AU MIDI host, and gives you practical building blocks such as LFOs, pre-fab GUI layouts, musical scales, AUv3 support (with AU Parameters, transport events, tempo syncing, etc.), random generators and a super-simple yet powerful script language. Mozaic even offers quick access to your device’s Tilt Sensors for expressive interaction concepts!

The Mozaic Script language is designed from the ground up to be the easiest and most flexible MIDI language on iOS. A language by creatives, for creatives. You’ll only need to write a few lines of script to achieve impressive things - or to create that uber-specific thing that was missing from your MIDI setup.

Check out the Programming Manual on Ruismaker.com to learn about the script language and to get inspiration for awesome scripts of your own.

Mozaic comes with a sizable collection of tutorials and pre-made scripts which you can use out of the box, or which can be a starting point for your own plugin adventures.

Features in a nutshell:
- Easy to learn Mozaic Script language: easy to learn, easy to read
- Sample-accurate-everything: the tightest MIDI timing possible
- Built-in script editor with code-completion, syntax hints, etc.
- 5 immediately usable GUI layouts, with knobs, sliders, pads, etc.
- In-depth, helpful programming manual available on Ruismaker.com
- Easy access to LFOs, scales, MIDI I/O, AU parameters, timers
- AUv3; so you'll get multi-instance, state-saving, tempo sync and resource efficiency out of the box

Mozaic opens up the world of creative MIDI plugins to anyone willing to put in a few hours and a hot beverage or two.

Practical notes:
- Mozaic requires a plugin host with support for AUv3 MIDI plugins (AUM, ApeMatrix, Cubasis, Auria, Audiobus 3, etc.)
- The standalone mode of Mozaic lets you edit, test and export projects, but for MIDI connections you need to run it inside an AUv3 MIDI host
- MIDI is not sound; Mozaic on its own does not make noise... so bring your own synths, drum machines and other instruments!
- AUv3 MIDI requires iOS11 or higher"
