via this auction

You can find a demo of one here.

"Rare JHS SD-1 Pro-Rhythm Analogue Drum Synthesizer from the late 70's from John Hornby Skewes (JHS).

The item has just had a fully service so works perfectly and was from my collection which I am in the process of selling.

The SD-1 is a battery powered drum synth with sound shaping controls and a rubber pad which, when hit, triggers the analogue circuitry for an infinite variety of possible sounds from deep bass to high pitches to sweeping disco tones.

The JHS Pro–Rhythm is a self contained drum synthesizer,featuring two V.C.O.s', a ring modulator, resonance control, L.F.O., white noise source, a sweep generator for oscillators, area V.C.A. Section. Thanks to it's advanced features and state-of-the-art circuitry, the JHS Pro Rhythm offers the modern percussionist an expanded form of electronic musical expression previously available only to guitarists and keyboard players.

The control panel is rim mounted and designed for easy accessibility and fine adjustment, the control themselves are rationally laid out, and easy to operate."

From DAW sketch to DAWless song with the Elektron Octatrack MkII

Published on May 30, 2020 Jay Hosking

"A live, semi-improvised track, performed entirely on the Elektron Octatrack MkII. Still in the island cabin, I decided to load some old stems into the Octatrack and see what happened.

Before I got into this all-hardware approach, I stalled out for years making fragments of songs in DAWs; it was really only the immediacy and performability of hardware that got me finishing electronic music with any regularity. So I thought I'd find something not too dusty and transfer it from DAW to DAWless. These are the results.

All the loops are my own, and made primarily with Maschine. Sounds come from a variety of Maschine-compatible formats, including Arturia's V Collection and the Korg Gadget series, as well as the Maschine sample library (the 808, in particular). The main loop of the song adheres pretty closely to my original DAW sketch.

But it's really the Octatrack that takes this from a sketch to a finished song. First, I created an entire second section with the Octatrack, a 'chorus' where the samples are chopped and pitched to a new progression. Second, and critically, I use the Octatrack's scenes to add variation to the samples, to progress through the song from a beginning to an ending, and of course to make things get wild and weird. Scenes are Octatrack magic.

Performed live and uploaded as is, with some limiting on the master (I used the Octatrack's master-level compression for most of the dynamics-shaping).

Three Body Prototype Sounds

Published on May 30, 2020 SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING

"A brief exploration with the Three Body, a triple digital FM/PM oscillator based on an FPGA platform.

I kind of drifted into harsh noise by cross modulating all three of the oscillators but it is also capable of the prettier side of FM.

No processing is used and all stereo FX are generated by phase modulation, two Maths (not shown) were modulating the phase and frequency indexes (build in analog VCAs).

The Three Body is expected to be available late fall/winter 2020, price TBA."

Brums, a Max For Live Drum Synthesizer.

Published on May 30, 2020 suis-je fou

"Brums is an advanced drum synthesizer.
4 Operators creating 4 differents drum sounds.
Each Operator have three sound sources with short envelope. Two oscillators, one noise source with 3 different resonant filters, a tape delay, a little reverb, an overdrive and many other abilities like random panning, unstability, gated random delay time, FM possibility between the two oscillators, dephasing, 4 different waveforms for each oscillator, LFO, many velocity routing possibilities etc.

Brums is close to the famous and great Microtonic by Soundcharge, but more focused on sounds.
This device is able to send Each Operator sounds to separate audiotrack, which is useful to add audio effect and mix only one Operator.

Brums is a free Max for Live device, it’s thousands hours of work, but fuck audio capitalism, we want to make music, not money !
