Greatest Hits of Synth Poster Now in Electric Blue and Racing Green



"Synth Evolution’s ever-popular poster of the history of the synthesizer is now available in special edition colours of racing green and electric blue. The poster features 100 beautifully drawn vintage synths, samplers and drum machines in chronological order with family tree connections. Black and white options are also still available, and all are high quality silkscreen prints on 270gsm artists paper. See the attached images.

Delivering globally, they can be ordered from www.synthevolution.net (now with lower shipping costs to the US compared with recent times)

Stay tuned, as well, for an exciting joint project with the Alan R. Pearlman Foundation announcing soon. Other new products will be launching at SynthFestUK on October 8th in Sheffield, UK. In the meantime check out our sister site www.synthtrax.net - an ever-growing wiki-directory of 'all the songs ever to feature a synth’ - yes, really!

Vive le synth!

Moog Subharmonicon Dark Ambient


video upload by riotbell

"This is another slow ambient patch made on the Subharmonicon trying to assign all available oscillators.

Grasping at a Hans Zimmer sort of vibe, but don't know if it fully comes off.

I do wish there was a patch point for the envelope amount. Sequence 1 patched into the Filter Cutoff. Sequence 2 patched into the trigger."

"With an additional MIDI to CV/Gate interface, you are able to control the CV, Gate and the filter cutoff of the SH-7.

The SH-7 is a 2-VCO, duophonic analog synthesizer with a 31/2-octave, 44-note (F-C) keyboard. Both VCOs can be switched between triangle,sawtooth, square, and pulse waveforms. VCO2 can be detuned from VCO1.Pulse-width can be controlled by the LFO or ENV1 (envelope generator 1). EachVCO has three sliders that adjust how much it is affected by the LFO, S/H, anda function called "Autobend". Autobend allows the VCO to slide up ordown to a pitch. The Autobend function has controls for polarity and time. VCO1has an additional square wave section (called VCO1B) wherein five sliderscontrol the volume of each square wave (2', 4', 8', 16', and 32'). This worksin much the same way as an organ's drawbars do. The SH-7 also features a ringmodulator where the first input is VCO1 and the second is switchable betweenVCO2 and an external signal (via the external input jack in the back). There isa switch for oscillator sync. However, it does not achieve the usual"sync" sound. A mixer section provides five sliders, VCO1A, VCO1B,VCO2, Noise, and the last one switchable between the Ring Modulator and the External Signal.

The SH-7 features a single VCF (self-oscillating, 24dB/octave)with five sliders controlling modulation, many of them having a switch tochoose between two options. The modulation sliders are for are the ENV1 (withswitchable polarity), LFO or S/H, Keyboard or optional pedal, VCO1 or noise,and an envelope follower from the external signal (also with switchablepolarity). The VCA can be controlled by either ENV1or ENV2, and has a Hold button and a slider for LFO amount. Both ENV1 and ENV2are ADSR envelopes and each has three trigger options, gate/trigger, gate, andLFO. The sample-and-hold section features three waveforms sources and an OutputLag slider (a rare but extremely useful feature). The LFO can output sine,up-ramp, or pulse waveforms, and has controls for rate and delay. Portamentocan be set for just up, just down or both ways. The bender can be set tomodulate the VCO, VCF, and/or the VCA with varying amounts of control voltageor LFO signal."

"This is a CS01 - it is NOT a CS01 mkII. The resonance filter is a switch not a slider. I had two of these but wanted to keep my white one, so I switched the insides."

Meng Qi WINGIE 2 Resonator // Demo Tutorial Walkthrough


video upload by Dexba

"It's here, I love, and I hope I can spread some extra love with this video about the @Meng Qi Wingie 2, or Wing 2, as YouTube keeps suggesting.
It is a lovely, tiny, portable, stereo resonator, that is giving me more joy and exploration than a lot of many, 20 times more expensive, other instruments.
I am demoing it both with the onboard microphones and some samples coming from the Digitakt.
All the demo is the dry sound of the Wingie, except for the last part, where it is also stated I have added a reverb to the demos you've heard at the beginning.
I hope you will find something useful here, and as always I am more than ready to answer your question, if I can 🧡

Qu-Bit Aurora | Spectral Reverb & Space Synthesizer


video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"For me, there's nothing like plugging a reverb in my case that has a different approach to 'space'. There are procedural reverbs like Desmodus, Z-DSP, FX-AID and StarLab, there's convolution reverbs emulating real space by room measurements - and now there's a spectral reverb. It analyzes the incoming sound with a mathematcial FFT algorithm (extracting frequencies over time, creating a spectrograph) and then uses an engine (the phase vocoder) to synthesize a delay line. So it's unnatural by design, but this opens up many ways to alter the spectrum in real time, like slowing it down, pitching it, etc. I hope you'll enjoy this 'first patch' tour!

The Spectral Editor shown in the video is Izotope RX. It's the #1 sound restoration tool. Izotope also features Iris 2, a synthesizer using the same spectral techniques for music.

This video contains a snippet of Hans Zimmer's 'Time', arranged and performed by myself. It's used for educational purposes. This is an educational channel, monetizing is off and this video is not sponsored by anybody."

Stereoping Synth Controller for Clavia Nord Drum 2


video upload by Stereoping

"Demo for the ND2 Edition of the Synth Controller supporting #Clavia #NordDrum 2. Also works with the Nord Drum 3 but not with the first version (with 4 channels) which does not support CC-parameter editing. 6 minutes of editing with some captions what's currently going on. From 6:28 the setup and usage of the GLOBAL MODE is shown. GLOBAL MODE allows simultaneous editing of previously teached parameters on all 6 channels, kind of performance mixer."
