“I have to admit that Animoog is becoming one of my favorite iSynths (besides WaveGenerator): you can obtain deep, warm, analog sounds, with a complex structure.

Modular polyphony – First try with the Vermona QMI
qMI is a quad MIDI-to-CV converter-module suitable for modular synthesizer systems in eurorack format. qMI is based upon the voice allocating unit of VERMONA’s PERfourMER MKII and supports monophonic as well as polyphonic playing.
Each of unit’s four output channels offers output for Key-CV (1v/oct.), gate as well as two additional CV-outputs to redirect MIDI-controllers like modulation wheel or pitch bend. The output channels can be freely combined or used independently with individual MIDI-channels. Combined output channels can be played in unison, monophonically with rotating voice allocation or polyphonically.
qMI offers four clock-divider-outputs, which convert incoming MIDI-clock to analogue gate-voltages. A reset-output allows MIDI-start/stop-commands to be converted to control components of your modular synthesizer system, e.g. a step-sequencer and keep it synchronized this way.
Simple handling and immediate access to all parameters is an important part of qMI’s concept. Therefore, qMI allows a straightforward combination of your modular synthesizer and MIDI-system.
Quicksilver 606 Introduction
The Quicksilver 606 CPU upgrade for the TR-606 is now available! For more information please visit http://www.socialentropy.com/quicksilver
The soundtrack is by Syn303, track available here: https://soundcloud.com/syn303/kontakt…
New Expressive Possibilities
The Quicksilver 606 is a replacement CPU for the TR-606 drum machine. New features such as individual instrument accent, 32 step patterns and realtime recording combine with the classic analog synthesis to breath new creative life into your productions.
Built for live performance.
MUTE and ROLL mode provides a single interface to perform and tweak patterns in realtime. Programming and performance can all be done without ever stopping the sequencer.
Ultimate Control
MIDI input and output allow the 606 to be programmed from a DAW or external MIDI controller.
“MIDI Control mode” allows the 606 to be controlled from any device that can send MIDI note messages. The sequencer can send and receive MIDI notes and MIDI clock. This allows the 606 to act as an awesome sequencer for other machines.
Modern Connectivity
The Quicksilver 606 comes with USB built in. USB MIDI can be used with USB host devices, and the operating system is easily upgradable directly over USB.
Because all data is stored into internal EEPROM, batteries are no longer required to maintain memory. All internal memory can also be dumped using MIDI sysex messages for sharing or backup.

SE ObieRack X2 Bass Jam w/ Analogue Solutions Oberkorn & Telemark
This is bass — so headphones required!
Here’s a little bass jam put together with 2 Studio Electronics ObieRacks, an Analogue Solutions Oberkorn analogue sequencer, and a Telemark V2 semi-modular synth. A five voice!
The Telemark (under the ObieRacks) is providing the backing pitchy, swooshy f/x, and you’ll see the binary inputs of the Oberkorn being patched — which creates new patterns on the TM in binary fashion.
The ObieRack has a master filter cutoff (for both SEMs) that is adjusted during the video. Additionally, the SEMs are switched to bandpass mode for some variety in the sequence.
No overdubs, no FX, no frills — just a quick recording of the dry/raw juicy analogue sounds.
just for fun!
Drum Machine 101 with Redrum – Micro Tutorial
Ever since Reason 1.0 beatmakers, producers, and button-mashers alike have all loved the venerable old Redrum Drum Computer. And it’s easy to see why. Step sequencing drum machines like Redrum or even the classic Roland 808 offer a nearly perfect layout for programming the rhythmic syncopated beats used in so many popular music genres. The 16 buttons, representing the 16 steps in the beat, provide the right blend of predictable beat construction and random experimentation when you want to spice up your beats.
In this micro tutorial, we’ll get you started with drum step sequencing and get familiar with the Redrum’s layout. You’ll soon learn why producers the world over love Kong but also keep coming back to Redrum for that special creative simplicity.
