UVI introduces UVX-3P, a superb instrument at an outstanding price, $79 (introductory price — instead of $99). Inspired by the Roland JX-3P.
In 1983, Roland introduced one of the first affordable analog synths, the JX-3P. The JX-3P signaled a shift away from control dense synths like the JUNO and JUPITER series for a less intimidating, more entry-level aesthetic aimed at players who wanted the Roland sound without being distracted by a slew of controls.
That said the JX-3P was in no way technically inferior, offering many of the same components as its more expensive siblings‚ it even boasted dual DCO’s per-voice compared to a single in the JUNO series making it somewhat of a sleeper powerhouse.
Not as pervasive as the JUNO series, the JX-3P was still a very capable and expressive instrument used by many well known pop acts such as Stevie Nicks, Vince Clark and The Cure as well as electronica pioneers Orbital and The Future Sound of London.
UVX-3P was developed with the same care and thoroughness as our other Vintage series instruments. A JX-3P was fully restored to factory spec, programmed by members of our sound design team and deeply multi-sampled, capturing samples both dry and with the built-in analog chorus enabled. Great care was taken to capture a wide range of the sonic capabilities of this synth, giving you 160+ presets in all.
Explore the included sounds or design your own patches from scratch through an immaculately prepared UI. Take your sound design even further with the wide range of effects available in the industry leading UVI Engine.

COMPATIBILITY
With the free UVI Workstation 2.0.9 (required version), UVX-3P can work:
• as a stand-alone instrument, compatible with Mac & PC
• as a VST, AudioUnit, RTAS and MAS plug-in.
With MachFive 3 — make the most of all editing features included!

Reviews and demos of the new iMini from Arturia
As announced yesterday, Arturia is rolling out an iPad version of its Minimoog-emulating Mini V softsynth called iMini.
The Mini V, released back in 2003, was the French music tech company’s first software synth. So it’s fitting that a version of it represents Arturia’s first foray into the app world, a sector that seems to be growing by leaps and bounds of late. Like the Mini V, iMini has three oscillators and a 24dB-per-octave filter based modeled on those found on the Moog classic, plus analog-style chorus and delay effects. The synth also does things the original couldn’t, like play polyphonically, and it features a number of presets to help you get started on creating sounds.
A performance page in the app, geared toward touchscreen play, features a latch mode and two assignable XY pads. iMini easily syncs with other iPad apps, and it’s compatible with the Retronyms Tabletop modular environment, so you can pair the iMini with a number of other effects or make music with multiple copies of the synth. You can grab a copy of the synth as of today through the App Store, and part of the proceeds of your purchase help benefit the Bob Moog Foundation.

I don’t know if I can… Ok, I will do it… Sorry… Amongst all the car manufacturers, I was sure that BMW would be the first to bring one of it’s cars to our iDevice… So, the day has arrived! Let’s launch the App! … … Oups, it is not a car, it is a Moog, a mini Moog! Top! (And sorry again… I promise, I will be serious from now on…). So, let’s play a sound… Wahoo!!! So fat!!! I love it!!! The main screen is exactly the same as a real mini Moog… Another window allows you to control parameters with 2 Pads (X / Y), an Arpeggiator too and a third window the Fx (Chorus & Analog Delay). That’s all… I think that some of you think that I’m kidding… No, I’m not kidding. That’s all! If you want more, download Tabletop (it’s Free, with a lot of Apps within the purchase that you don’t need to buy. Note also that Tabletop gets better and better, so if you don’t know this App, don’t hesitate to try it… I will update its Post as soon as possible…). So, iMini in Tabletop allows you to do everything..(almost!)… First, to record an automation or your performances: you will be able to share them on SoundCloud or via the Sonoma Audio Copy feature. But you will be also able to create your own Arpeggiator or Sequence, to add FX, Filters, to Glitch your sound, and much more… In fact, I realised today that Retronyms has created its AudioBus version for iOS (iMPC is also available in Tabletop…). So, my rating… A Killer App! (The sound quality is… So fat!). I understand that some of you will not really appreciate having to use Tabletop for the extra features… I use so many Apps everyday, even for my personal projects, that today it is no longer a problem for me, on the contrary, I love to be able to jump from one App to another… But I can understand those who don’t…
