The next generation of Traktor software
Here a couple of videos from native featuring the new Traktor
See the new generation of Traktor DJ software in action in this video, now powered by “Traktor 2 Technology Inside” for absolutely intuitive ease of use and unlimited creative possibilities.
The brand-new user interface with enhanced TruWave colored waveforms with 4 different color schemes to choose from lets you differentiate kicks, hi-hats, snares as well as the track’s energy level at a glance.
Used with Traktor Kontrol X1 controllers as you can see in this video, the power over using Traktor’s hotcues, loops and effects is literally at your fingertips.
The new Sample Decks in Traktor Duo 2 and Traktor Pro 2 provide perfectly integrated control over loops and one-shots. With the additional Loop Recorder, 4 new tempo-syncable effects (more than 30 in total) and expanded customization options, Traktor Pro 2 is the new flagship software that also powers the Traktor Scratch Pro 2 digital vinyl system and the Traktor Kontrol S4 all-in-one DJ system by Native Instruments.

A tribute to Spectralis
Made for fun, hope nobody is bothered by the videocrap, its about the music, just to improve my skills with this machine and to have more different sound examples of the Spectralis in the net, I think its a great workstation, with a lot of soundpotential, not easy to learn, but unmatched for complex rythms and pseudo hardsequencing, cheers make music rainmaindein

project wheel: basic interface tests
Some basic testing of a raw disc-based display for the enigmatically named “Project Wheel”.
Some tuning is needed: for example, the blocks generated from the sine wave audio show attenuation, due to some averaging code in the drawing algorithm, all of which needs a bit of refinement to improve alignment of visual and audible transients.
No, we’re not just implementing a circular looper. The next video we upload should give a hint of what’s to come.

The modular music box by monomatic
Monomatic’s Modular Music Box on display at the Kinetica Art Fair, February 2011.
Thanks to Kamila for demonstration duties.
More information: monomatic.net
At the heart of the piece is a custom-made electro-magnetic rotary sequencer. Melodies are stored on a series of interchangeable, acrylic, 10” disks embedded with small magnets arranged in a regular circular grid
In the same way vinyl records are located on a turntable, these disks are centered on a spindle and rotate over a ‘play head’ made up of a line of magnetic field sensors – effectively replicating but superseding the set of pins on the revolving cylinder that pluck the tuned teeth of a steel comb in the traditional device.
Additional units are ‘daisy-chained’ to each other via single cables and include a self contained and controllable sound source (to hear and effect the musical output) and an animated representation of a dancing ballerina automaton – realized as a modern-day interpretation of the praxinoscope.
Inspired by the design of the second generation monome controllers these modular components draw on their minimalist design aesthetic and utilise a similar restricted material palette of walnut, brushed aluminium, translucent acrylic, and orange LEDs.
The work explores exhibition themes such as the ‘materialisation of data’, ‘the tactile digital’ and the ‘invisibility of technology’ while attempting to recapture something of the sense of craft and workmanship, refined aesthetics and genteel appreciation of the iPods of their day – refocused through the minimalist design aesthetic and tactile ergonomics of the monome.
Tom Oberheim SEM Pro Unboxing
Unboxing video of a Tom Oberheim SEM-Pro. The song was done by me (Scott From Canada) entirely with the SEM pro (all sounds) except for the drums, which were done with the Korg M3M.
Some sounds were overdubbed a few times and of course some effects were added in the mix, but every sound originated in the SEM-Pro.
It is a VERY fat, clean and powerful sounding synth, a really nice addition to any keyboard setup. Highly recommended. I will probably use this more than the Moog Slim Phatty.

Sequencomat V3.2 functions
A little jam with my Sequencomat (stepsequencer in max/msp for the Jazzmutant Lemur), here triggering Ableton Live. The focus is on new functions in v3.2 (random stepvalues and step-propability) for details see: http://www.tonvibration.de/Sequencoma… or http://music-interface.com/ Enjoy!

a test with the sequencomat v3 running its own maxmsp generated clock and sequencing the modular and syncing the milton sequencer. check http://music-interface.com/ for more info on sequencomat v3
45 Oberheim SEM Sounds
I really like my Oberheim SEM. This is my second one, still can’t figure out why I sold the first one. It sounds extremely good and I just wish I had another to put in that empty slot to the right of mine. Now that the re-issue is out I just might! Also, below there is space for some patch panels to access all the goodies inside the SEM via it’s patch points. I just realized there’s room for some Euro modules too.
This video shows some of the capabilities of this little monster.
