"Thanks so much to everyone who made this possible! Incredibly excited to get started making modules.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...

In a surprise last-minute push we managed to get nearly 100 new backers in 48 hours get over the kickstarter threshold at the very last minute. I'm as pleased as I am surprised at this result.

In this video I also show off a bonus feature, black PCB front panels! Send me a message on Kickstarter if you pledged and would like one of these instead of an aluminum panel with black text.

I also discuss kits and sourcing some harder-to-find components. I hope to make an announcement about parts kit availability soon - please let me know if you're interested as it will help me judge how many kits to stock."

Zero-G Northern Lights Featuring Rare Vintage ARP 2500, E-Mu, and Aries Modules

Playlist:

Zero-G Northern Lights Pad Machine - Walkthrough

Don't miss the vintage ARP 2500 modules (1047, 1004p, 1023) in the video below. There's a vintage E-mu UAF module in the system as well. FRODEBEATS also used some Dennis Colin (Aries) modules for Northern Lights.

Note Zero-G's Northern Lights is of course more than this. You just don't get many modern soft synths with rare modules like this, so I thought it worth mentioning. According to Frodebeats, "Northern lights is not a vintage synth instrument by any means. It's a forward looking instrument focused on pads with controls set up to control many different parameters at once, and also different for each sound. Lots of work!"

Frodebeats - The making of Zero-G Northern Lights Pad Machine

"We chat with FRODEBEATS the producer of Northern Lights Pad Machine. Find out how it was made, his inspirations and the sounds used to create this incredible Kontakt instrument.

Full interview - https://zero-g.co.uk/blogs/news/we-ta...

Zero-G Northern Lights Pad Machine is a multilayered Kontakt instrument containing almost 6GB of brand-new audio content and giving you more than 970 original and unique sounds. Multi-layered patches utilizing every possible and impossible sound source. From rare modular synthesizers to metal and sounds from the Norwegian natural environment. All with one thing in mind – to create the most amazing pad sounds ever made!"

Get Well Soon ~ Ambient Modular Synthesis

"I put together this skiff to create 'out of this world' kind of sounds. Featuring most of the Whimsical Raps modules, I have yet to get myself a Just Friends or W/. What you can't see is that the outputs are being run into Strymon BlueSky which is set to shimmer. This is a song for my sister."
