Votan Telepathy – new telepathically integrated synthesis suite for iOS
VotanDSP has announced the release of version 2.0 of Votan Telepathy, a telepathically integrated synthesis suite for iPad, iPhone & OS X Audio Unit, offering a perfect blend of traditional algorithms and cutting edge integration.
Votan Telepathy is a powerful synthesis engine built on top of The Votan Platform. It is available as an iOS (iPhone/iPad) app and also as an 32/64 bit Audio Unit. Users can experience Telepathy with either of these platforms alone, but when they are used together is when the real magic happens.
Telepathy iOS and Telepathy AU (Audio Unit) are seamlessly linked via The Votan Platform Cloud and Control features, offering near zero latency control over an infinite series of Telepathy AU instances direct from the iPad touch screen. Users can create new a sound on iOS that instantly integrates into their DAW session.
A perfect blend of traditional algorithms and cutting edge integration Votan Telepathy has a subtractive synthesis engine containing quad arrays (4x) of Oscillators, Filters, LFO’s, Envelopes, and FX Blocks. These sound shaping modules are built around an 8 Slot Modulation Matrix which routes the modulators to any Telepathy Synth or FX parameter destination. Of particular delight is the free flowing nature of the Oscillator section. It unlocks the normally static oscillator frequency parameter from standard MIDI key tracking. When users switch off the Amp Envelope they have free playing waveforms at their fingertips which combined with the dual oscillator FM, offer some serious dimensions in audio rate wave modulations normally only seen on modular analogue synthesisers.
Telepathy is joy to use, be it on the way to work or whilst professionally constructing the tracks in the users favourite studio DAW. Telepathy will fill the gaps between. Everything the users build on iOS will telepathically appear in their DAW session ready to rock the next tune.
Changes in Votan Telepathy v2.0
- Hyper Oscillators.
- Noise Oscillators.
- Extra Filter Types.
- Refined Modulation Matrix now with 8 slots, new destinations to all synth/fx parameters.
- New FX Types – FrequencyShifter, Reverb, Flange, Destroy, Buffer Glitch.
- New Delay Types.
- New Perform Assign.
- iPhone Version.
Votan Telepathy v2.0 for iPad and iPhone are available at a 25% discount until January 1st, 2016. The AudioUnit version is 50% off during the sale.
LP-5 and MoDrum with Ableton Link
LP-5 (iPad) and MoDrum (iPhone) are synchronized via Ableton Link (*) over WLAN. MoDrum sends MIDI Clock to the BeatStep hardware sequencer, which in turn triggers MoDrum’s Kick and Snare.
(*) Coming soon to the App Store!
LP-5/MoDrum: http://finger-pro.com
Ableton Link is a new technology that synchronizes beat, phase and tempo of Ableton Live and Link-enabled iOS apps over a wireless network. It lets you play devices together with the freedom of a live band. Anyone can start and stop their part while others keep playing, and anyone can adjust the tempo and the rest will follow.
You can use Link to play with several instances of Ableton Live, with Live and iOS apps, or even without Live in your setup: using Link- enabled apps on multiple devices, or multiple apps on the same device.
7 Minutes with an Ipad Synth – BeepBoop
“A strange noise-making device. A collection of blocks of signal processing that document the last few months of my meanderings, wired together to make excessive oddness. Kinda like an iOS monotron, but with the capacity for great evil.
Made from circuit models. Structurally, there’s an antialiased oscillator, feeding a partially temperature-stabilised transistor-ladder VCF (which can be heated), feeding an interesting old pitch-shifter in full-feedback-fun mode.Plus an LFO for some movement, and AudioBus compatibility. Sounds vary from early Dr Who to world-ending cataclysms.
There are no presets because what you hear is determined by more than just the positions of the knobs. It’s what you turned and when. There’s no MIDI input because it would be entirely out of character; once you hear it, you should understand pretty quick.”
BeepBoop is available for free here for IOS:

ROLAND TR-77 Analog Rhythm Box 1973 | HD DEMO |
The Roland Rhythm 77 (exact model name: TR-77) is a non programmable analog rhythm box. It is the predecessor of the Roland CR series, some drum sounds are quite similar. All rhythms are mixable. Volume sliders for BASSDRUM, SNARE, GUIRO, MARACAS/HIHAT/CYMBAL allow more variety of the patterns. The TR-77 has that classic Roland analog sound. Roland choosed the flat design to fit on top of organs.
I played the TR-77 with a small amout of ambience from a Lexicon MPX-500. Beginning at 4:10 and in the intro I played the TR-77 through a Korg SDD-3000 delay.
Analog percussion synth (PC-2) clone prototype (with CV control)
Background video description:
First try out of a clone board I am working on, based on the Boss PC-2 / Amdek PCK-100. Couple of differences (mainly due to scarcity of the BA662A VCA chip) and some experimenting with CV control. I will eventually be selling these as kits, but not quite there yet! Enjoy the clip – the Cv really does open this thing up!
