Asadi Plays: Native Instruments Maschine+ Standalone Groovebox


Perfect Circuit

"​@ASADI came by our studio in Burbank to play some Persian Trap on the Native Instruments Maschine+ and his Setar. Read our article about the new Maschine+ here: https://www.perfectcircuit.com/signal...

The Maschine+ is in the same form factor as the Maschine MKIII but it works as a standalone device so you don't need to bring a computer along to use it. You can load samples onto it with an SD card and in addition to sampling it has a bunch of Native Instruments synthesizers built in like Massive, FM8 and Monark.

BugBrand MonoMeter & News


BugBrand

"I've been meaning to make use of this little meter for years..
First try with a prototype.
Camera mic!"

And the news via the BugBrand mailing list:

"After a year of slow tinkering (/procrastinating) the new website finally launched a few weeks back.
The new one is nice & clean, I think - a good deal lighter in appearance than the old, with a good deal of tidying up & info adding.

Go check here: www.bugbrand.co.uk

Fingers crossed all the online ordering works smoothly - do please email if you encounter any issues.

One aspect in all of this was changing the webhosting - this seems to have caused a few issues with email, in particular some replies from me going missing, especially with attachments such as PDF invoices. This is frustrating!

I always try to stay on top of email replies, so if things suddenly go quiet or you don't hear back from me then you can always give me a nudge using my bugbrand AT gmail com email address.

So, I've been kind of storing up a few new releases as I didn't want to add them to the old site. Here we go!
[Click the title links!]

***PEQ2***
I've reimagined the old parametric so that we have a regular production EQ device - initial stock is available online!
It remains purely manual in control - I spent a lot of time trying out Voltage Control approaches, but nothing stuck as yet, and there's a lot to be said for keeping things simple! This is great for transforming the audio spectrum of signals - and there might even be a complementary 2FW mono something to pair with it... prototyping at the moment.

***Expanded COFilter***
The (Active) Expander for the current CrossOverFilter should now be in semi-regular production. The above links to the standalone combo package but I can also provide it as a module with new 5FW case - just email to discuss. A new batch is on the bench but there are two completed units ready & in the online store.

***Multiplier Module***
A new polarizing VCA module (1FW) for the Blues. I've still got a few made from the 1st batch with more to follow shortly.
(In general I have regular stock of most current Blue designs - most ready built on the shelf - always email order only so do shout!)

***PT Delay Slight Seconds***
The latest batch of PT Delay standalones had a few minor panel imperfections - small scratches or blemishes - so they've been marked down slightly in price.

***Banana Cables***
I just restocked & added a further sample pack of 4 x 50cm cables - regularly available!

Next up is continued catching up - restocking items like the SComp & DRM2, keeping the modular line ticking over, making up systems, ongoing bubbling prototype work...And remembering too to sometimes step away from work!
Spinning always.

Best autumnal wishes,
Tom"

Jan Hammer - Crockett's Theme (Miami Vice) Cover


KOSmusic

"This is my cover of one of the fabulous tracks created by Jan Hammer for the iconic 80s TV series 'Miami Vice': Crockett's Theme.

To recreate the sound of the guitar as close as possible to the original one, I created a virtual instrument (playing various notes/slides/palm muting/etc. of my Les Paul) and thanks to the synth I was able to play it giving it the electronic effect, and recreate all of them the small pitch bends characteristic of Jan Hammer's legendary guitar.

The bass line having been created with an arpeggio in random mode (on the Jupiter-8), in certain points of the track it can be a little different from the original.

Thanks to my wife's passion for sewing, we decided to try to recreate the 'Crockett' style t-shirt and blazer from scratch, with the fabrics we had available at home.

Special thanks to the Brogan brothers of 'Modeling' and John Wilburn for their incredible support!

John Wilburn: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE_b...

It was really difficult to recreate the track and video of this classic (it took a few months and a lot of energy), but I hope you enjoy my tribute to this classic ;)

***Please note: my videos are not live performances, but are music videos, accompanying for the covers I create. The original graphics and music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I am just a fan and I recreate animations/graphics/tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these great timeless classics***"

via this auction

"1U rack filter built like a tank in Germany from Mode Machines. Bought new a few months ago and used a couple times, basically open box item, mint condition. Ships with all original materials plus Eu -> US adapter.

The OMF-1 is a four pole true analogue filter. The product is based on the famous transistor ladder filter developed by Dr Bob Moog in the 1960s. A front panel pot controls the filter cut-off frequency, another controls the resonance. The resonance control is not configured to cause volume drop when turned up.

The filter can be made to oscillate if required."
