"This Multimoog is in wonderful shape. The ribbon looks untouched. The keys are even and all work. The sounds you can find are super cool. Pushing outside audio through it sounds incredible. Using a keystep to arpeggiate the oscillator frequency gets some really fun sounds. I don't think I could find another one in this great of shape if I tried. For the bad: there are two covers on the bottom covering access to the key mechanism. One is missing and one has a corner cut out. This doesn't affect anything. Unless touring without a case, I wouldn't suspect this would ever bother anyone. Fabricating a cover would be as simple as cutting a square of acrylic or even cardboard."

Novation Peak and Summit Patches by Lightbath


via @WeAreNovation

"Our latest patches’ update features composer, improviser and educator @lightbath with his ambient Baby Steps pack. Styled by planting musical seeds that through improvisation, develop and grow into pieces that unfold in the present moment. Access here >>>"

"Composer, improviser, and educator Bryan Noll explores time and space with his musical project, Lightbath. Taking inspiration from Brian Eno's view of composers as gardeners, Noll plants musical seeds with his synthesizers and, through improvisation, guides their development and growth into pieces that unfold in the present moment.

Noll developed his sound and process as Lightbath by making YouTube videos showing the physical act of coaxing music out of modular synthesizers. As Pitchfork puts it: “Once you have submitted to these videos, it can be hard to pull yourself away. The artfully unpretentious demonstrations… occupy a strange, sui-generis niche: Featuring balmy sounds, blinking LEDs, and low-key set-dressing, they are part performance, part tech tutorial, and part audio-visual wallpaper.”

Lightbath has releases on RVNG Intl and Seil Records as well as the self-released ‘Selected Public Works’ series which features remastered versions of the pieces on his YouTube channel.

The 33 zones in this patch bank were created on Peak and feature the use of Mod Wheel and Aftertouch, as well as the Animate buttons for deeper expressive control."

Gotharman's Zybraz Released



The Zybraz from Gotherman is now available. See previous posts here.

"Gotharman’s has today released a new 24 note polyphonic resonator synthesizer, called Zybraz.

It is possible to save 10%, by pre-ordering it before 2/1-2019.

Features:

It has 2 parts (upper and lower with keyboard split point).

The oscillators are derived from LD3, and a couple of new parameters were added to the resonator part: Character and Brightness.
The oscillator waveform morphs from sine wave to triangle wave to saw wave, to square wave to feed wave. PW works on all waveforms. These waves can go through a resonator, where the number of resonances, that are fed back inside the oscillator can be adjusted, plus resonator character and brightness.

A noise generator are also available. The noise generator will also go through the Resonator, when this is on.

8 filter types can be selected for each part. All of these are derived from LD3.
Types: LPF1, LPF2, BPF1, BPF2, HPF1, HPF2, FAT, DESTROY.

8 effect types can be selected for each part. 7 effects derived from LD3, and one new: Bass Enhancer.
Types: Delay, Roto Delay, Bass Enhancer, Variator, BitCrush, Distortion, Resonator 1, Resonator 2.

Each part has 2 Envelopes, 1 ADSR, 1 decay. The ADSR envelope alway controls the output VCA, but it can control other parameters at the same time.

Each part has 2 LFO's. One for the filter and LFO1, one for the rest of the parameters.

All parameters, except for volume, portamento and EFX output level, can be modulated by up to 4 sources at the same time (LFO, ENV1, ENV2, velocity, Random).

Most parameters can be controlled by MIDI CC's. All parameters can be controlled by NRPN's. MIDI CC's are transmitted, when editing parameters. NRPN's are transmitted, when using the "Send Preset" and "Send All Presets" functions.

Pitch Bend range can be set separately for each part.

MIDI Hold Pedal are received.

63 re-writable presets. Preset 64 (preset 8, bank 8) are always an initialized preset, to give you a neutral startpoint, when creating new sounds. This can't be written.

Before a preset is stored, Zybraz lets you audition the destination preset location, to avoid overwriting a great preset.

IT'S SOLID! Made only by high quality parts, like an all metal case, metal potentiometers, push buttons made in Denmark by MultiMec and Cirrus Logic converters.

Pre-ordering price is EUR 539. Final price will be EUR 599.
