Another soft synth. Yawn. Wake Up! There is this new soft synth that is very innovative. It is not your normal synth, and it definitely is not “yet another emulation of a synth from yesteryear.” There is a new soft synth from Media Overkill (MOK) called Waverazor, and it is very different in how it looks, and creates sounds. The […]
I have been involved in reviewing many plug-in software synths and effects in the past few months. I have to start writing about it for the people out there that are into soft synths and plug-in effects. This one will be a quick review on the latest “next best synth” from Vengeance Sound, VPS Avenger. So is VPS Avenger really […]
We now have a total of 3 lessons on creating sounds. Lesson 1 – The First Sound – “Hello World” of Sound Programming Lesson 2 – Oscillators Lesson 3 – Filters We will be creating additional lessons on Amplifiers, Envelope Generators, LFOs, Function Generators, and more. Stay tuned!
Just last week, we provided a wishlist for NAMM 2017. Our Wishlist #2 was the following: “Akai to reissue standalone MPC with options for 60, 3000 mode sounds (want it fat and dirty? put some of the sounds on a kit in MPC 60 mode; want some color? put some of the sounds on the same kit in MPC 3000 mode, and the […]
Eurorack has come a long way in creating sounds similar to the classic modular synths. They consist of VCOs, VCFs, VCAs, EGs, and LFOs, Noise Generators, and maybe some logic and function generators. These days you will find so much more, like drum modules, wavetable synths, wave shapers and folders, effects, etc., and there seems to be an endless amount of […]
We have all been wondering before the release of this product whether it is real or not. It looks like it has 2 Oscillators, Mod, Mixer with Noise, a 2 and 4 pole Filter, Amp EG and EG, LFO, and Delay. It also hosts an arpeggiator and a 16 step sequencer. It also sports 4 voices, so quadruple everything I said. […]
I am quite impressed with this series of Eurorack modules, and what is packed into the small packages. One, the modules sound fantastic. Two, the vast amount of features covers the bases. I also like the fact that there are enough inputs/outputs/CV to incorporate other Eurorack modules by adding a third/fourth VCO for example, or more complex modules like the Make […]
We have added a section on our site that talks about Eurorack and Synths. Click here for more details or look above for the menu item above.
We have held out for a bit of time to see if we will be incorporating Eurorack systems in our studio. Well, the sound designers and the creative lab scientists have won the battle, and now we will be carrying Eurorack systems in our facilities. We will be treading lightly but I would assume that the ramp would be very […]
Dave Smith and team does it again with the Sequential Prophet 6. We have been playing with it quite a bit in our studio, and we are ready to create fresh patches. You’ve got to appreciate DSI for including the original Prophet 5 sounds. Source: Prophet-6 – Dave Smith Instruments
