Sounds of the vintage ARP QUADRA
all sounds: ARP QUADRA Analog Synthesizer (1979)
first demo of all four synth sections (Strings and Phase Shifter, Poly-Synth, Bass-Synth, Lead-Synth)
no multitracking, no midi
The Quadra is pretty much a hybrid version of ARP’s Omni II and Solus synths. It’s a four-section synthesizer consisting of a Bass synth, Poly synth, Lead synth, and String synth. It is quite good at emulating each of these sounds and can function in any of its four modes at a time with the ability of layering the different sections! Sounds you create in any of the four sections are instantly recalled from memory by the push of a button! There are 16 program patches for storing your sounds. Other major features are the incredible phase shifter, tons of balanced audio outputs for each section, dual portamento controls and a superior arpeggiator…that’s pretty good for 1978! On the downside, it has a fragile mylar front panel, very limited programability and a weird feature that autotunes the keys to play weird intervals.
The Bass synth section is monophonic and can be programmed to occupy the lower two octaves of the Quadra’s 5-octave 61-note keyboard. The bass sounds pretty good and has 16′ and 8′ presets each for Electric and String Bass sections.
The string section is based on the Omni II String synth. It sounds excellent and implements a phase-shift effect that is sort-of like a chorusing effect that thickens its already great string sound. In Polyphonic synth mode there are more effects available such as sample-n-hold and the phase-shifter. String and Poly Synth sections have 8′ and 4′ Polyphonic Waveform Generators each along with a preset called Hollow Waveform.
In Lead synth mode the Quadra becomes a two voice screamer with aftertouch sensitivity in the upper octaves of the keyboard! It’s duophonic (like the Odyssey). Get a bass sequence going, switch over to another section and play along!
DrumOrama Demo and Tutorial for iPad
DrumORama is an interesting and clever drum machine for your iPad
A drum machine and solo tool. Drum pads have beat sequencers that play programmed rhythm patterns once when you tap them, or can loop. Tapping pads at different times generates interesting asynchronous patterns from simple sequences. Contains hundreds of drum and percussion sounds.
Steamworx – new cinematic sound library for Alchemy
Steamworx, a sound library for Alchemy by Camel Audio, has been adapted and optimised for Alchemy Mobile.
Steamworx’s 50-preset library of “cinematic netherworld” features keyboard instruments made from clocks, drum kits built with “steam-powered machines, fog-shrouded soundscapes and gothic” choirs. Created by game soundtrack designer, Steamworx sounds are suited to soundtrack, delicate ambient, sci-fi, industrial and, says Camel Audio, the “supernatural.”
Pricing and availability. Camel Audio’s Steamworx for Alchemy Mobile is available now, as an in-app purchase for 4.99 USD / 3.99 EUR / 2.99 GBP. Also included are three demo projects, to remix or use as the basis for new songs.
Interspecific’s first prototype
electromagnetic phenomena transducer that makes use of bio and geo sensors to create a sonification (frequency) and visualization (cymatics) from different radiant energy inputs to allow for an interspecific prosthesis that could provide the basis for the creation of a new developmental synesthetic model of perception.
