New Casio CT-S1000V AiX w/ Vocal Synth Pic



Update: video reveal from Kraft Music here

This image popped up on reddit and has since been removed. You can see CTS1000V on the bottom right. It features Casio's AiX Sound Source with Vocal Synthesis. Note the K1/Vocal Type selector knob with Male and Female labels. There are also Lyrics and Instrument Tone Mode Select buttons below the Portamento knob. Lyrics? Some comments on that below. Curious if that portamento works on vocals. On the display you can see [LYRIC/RHY] top left. To the right you can see Tone Advanced, Rhythm, and Registration buttons, and Play/Stop, Tempo, and Record buttons.

See this post for teaser videos from Casio to date.

Update:

Visible controls in the pic and some notes/comments:

- Volume knob and power button

- K1/Vocal Type knob ranging from Male to Female (Stepped or smooth transition?)

- K2/Portamento knob (Portamento on vocals? That could be interesting.)

- Home and Menu buttons

- Lyrics and Instrument buttons under a Tone Mode Select section (Lyrics? Curious if you can enter/record phrases. How does it compare to Yamaha's fseqs in the FS1R?)

- Screen/display with 5 buttons and data wheel

- On screen:
[LYRICS/RHY], VOCALIST, 1:Choir Group
Back, Parameter, -,+ mapped to buttons

- Tone button with Advanced LED option
- Rythm and Registration buttons (Registration?)

- Play/Stop, Tempo, and Record buttons

Vacuum Tube Atari Punk Console


video upload by Usagi Electric

"Happy New Year! To kick the new year off, we’re going to do something completely out of the norm – we’re building DIY synth stuff out of vacuum tubes! Well, maybe that’s not totally out of the norm, haha. The Atari Punk Console is one of the most quintessential circuits you can build when taking your first steps into the world of DIY synth stuff, so I figured why not make it out of vacuum tubes!"

video upload by Learning Modular

"This performance of Iceland was created for the 2021 edition of SoundMiT. In a slight change from my recent instrumentation, I played my smaller portable modular synthesizer system, as well as several of my polyphonic synthesizers. Hope you enjoy it!

The plugs are slightly translucent and you can see the core of the cable. Material is a soft touch rubber that is presently flexible.

Plugs are embossed with the words ANALOGUE SOLUTIONS and also the logo.
