Cubits Evolution is a new Rom Synthesizer
CubicAudio has released Cubits Evolution which they say takes creativity to a new level and gives the user control over the sound. Here’s the rest of what they have to say about it…
Cubits Evolution is a new Rom Synthesizer with a multitude of different sounds to suit any producers needs. Evolution enters a whole new dimension in sound design aswell as giving you the user an advantage to not only load presets with roms, but to also edit oscillators by changing wave types and editing effects directly as no features are locked away from user. We believe that any producer or sound designer should have access to each part of the synth and this allows you to fully utilize Evolution’s capabilities and create your own sounds.
Make it easy, Make it intuitive, Make it advanced
Flexibility and usability are key to Evolution we have made it easy to browse presets by using category icons and categories to seperate each section of presets. Not only that but the ability to favourite any preset you want. Also included is a very easy but very flexible search feature which with just a few keywords you can find the perfect presets for you. Each preset has been named in a way that resembles to the designer what it sounds like also there is a description for each preset which is searchable aswell. Evolution includes 4 Main Oscillators, 1 Rom Synthesizer (Upto 4 Layers),Modulation Matrix (Many modulation options), 2 LFOs, 6 effects (Chorus,Decimator,EQ,Distortion,Reverb,Delay).
Small Size, Big Library, Better Sounds
Evolution’s flexibility allows it to be easily updated to add new presets. With over 300 presets at a size of 1.2gb its got a lot to pack. Not only do we have amazing expansion packs for Evolution but we will also allow you to access presets individually and with ease have them straight into Evolution’s library. The library of presets will keep on growing with more presets and expansion packs you will have a limitless set of sounds at your disposal.
Keep it simple Evo!
Yes it is simple to use for casual use but once you delve into the many options Evolution has you wont go back to being a casual user.

Triggered and controlled by the mighty 266e
Giorgio Sancristoforo has shared this video of his mini Buchla 200e system
A study for a self composing patch with my mini Buchla 200e system.
No MIDI or sequencers or overdubs were used. Everything was triggered and controlled by the mighty 266e source of uncertainty module in realtime.
The patch can play for infinite time an incredible number of permutations.

New stuff from Covenant – LIGHTBRINGER
COVENANT LIGHTBRINGER FEAT. NECRO FACILITY
Like Milton’s protagonist, Covenant refuses to yield and persistently continues to bring the light in spite of all odds. Another shade of pale, the Morning Star is rising once again. With the new EP “Lightbringer” Covenant takes one step back and two steps forward.
The title track is the fruit of an inspiring collaboration with fellow Swedish band Necro Facility and the result is undeniably Covenant but with a new flavor. A groovy, grinding and driven floor filler with a melody that can’t be exorcised once you’ve heard it. It comes in versions respectively designed by band members Eskil Simonsson, Daniel Myer and Joakim Montelius each using his own particular sonic foundry and magic and a stunning Radio Version by Oscar Holter of Necro Facility. Covenant never sounded this pure.
In addition the EP also contains the previously unreleased tracks “The Beauty and the Grace”, written by Daniel Myer, and “Never Seems to End” by Eskil Simonsson and Joakim Montelius.
The “Lightbringer EP” is undeniable evidence of the synergistic Covenant maxim “we are more than the sum of our parts”. The light is very bright indeed!
