Download the highly capable Odo synth for free

July 2, 2009 · Posted in Electronic Music · Comments Off on Download the highly capable Odo synth for free 


Odo from Odosynths is well known on the DIY synth forums especially the SynthEdit forum. A heavy synthedit user he has just released all his softsynths for free. Odo was already very generous giving away a lot of synths, drum machines and processors but he has decided to release all his softsynths for free.

The one pictured above, the Double Six XXL, is an FM synth with 32 possible 6-op or DX7 style algorithms and 16 4-op algorithms. Even a cursory glance at the interface lets you know that this is a well functioned synth. 11 different waveforms for the operators, clipping/distortion/overdrive & and LoPassFilter on each operator, 19 LFO shapes, 8 and 14 stage envelopes, multimode filters, throw in a few sequencers and you get the gist…. FM on steroids.

Don't be fooled by the name – Teenage Engineering

April 1, 2009 · Posted in Electronic Music · Comments Off on Don't be fooled by the name – Teenage Engineering 

It is a real synthesizer, a lot of people have even thought it was an April 1st hoax, but it is well worth checking out

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5SRRysKg8k&feature=player_embedded]

The Operator-1, Teenage Engineering’s portable synthesizer. It’s a synth, sampler, drum sequencer and controller all in one!

About section:

The Tape Operator is designed with logic in mind.

Every key and encoder is placed in way that makes sense, even if you use it with one hand or if you are lefthanded. And everything is color-coded for quick and easy reading.

And the same color codes are used on the bright active OLED display to make it even more easy to locate the right encoder or function.
Everything displayed with a refresh-rate of 60 frames per second.

On the right side of the case you’ll find all the neccasary connectors.

• 3.5mm input for audio/external microphone
• 3.5mm output for line out /headphones
• 3-pole power-connector for charging the internal battery or for use with power adaptor.
The power connector itself is the same as used in robotic automation applications
• USB 2.0 port for hooking up your OP to your computer transferring your recorded music
• Two holes special machined for carry strap
• Turn the machine upside-down there are two M6 holes for use with our Studio System parts.
