ok, it’s not really “spiritual” but fun.

this is both – a 16 note pressure keyboard with special key scaling functions (thats interesting) and sequencer with 4 lines in one box by “suit and tie guy” – Detachment Three Engineering. you can group the rows and play not just left to right but also VERTICALLY, so this is special! so on this you can actually play a “window” of steps instead of just lines! that makes it much more complex and more flexible! http://www.det3.net/
Forum: Neues Analogstep-Sequencer Konzept: Archangel Das ist nicht uninteressant, mit skalierbarem 16 Noten Touchkeyboard und Quantizer für verschiedene SKALEN – aber auch mit vertikalem bzw. Fensterabspielmodus, nicht einfach nur 4 Reihen horizontal spielbar. Sehr spannendes Konzept, komisch das da noch keiner drauf gekommen ist, naja – Rene gibt es… (Test im Synthesizer-Magazin #30)
Gotharman’s Little deFormer – GRANULATOR is perfect for those who really like glitch effects, stutter and other “hold it and deform it”-kind of sound effects in one little handy box.
this guy (angry octopus)did a lot of nice cute synths, here’s the fully webilogue Webitaur (feel reminded of a special new(ly) Moog synth?), … it’s free! just do it!
Access adds 2 more envelopes to their studio standard Access Virus TI2, Polar 2Dark Star (built 2009/05) synths, so it has 4 envelopes now like the Korg Radias and other competitors – well well awaited. as well there are some filters added to the effects section (so it’s NOT the filter section meant here) – there’s variable slope filters and all pass filters as well which is cool for pads.
in Deutsch – im Forum: Virus TI OS 5 - 2 zusätzliche Hüllkurven (4 insgesamt) jetzt ab TI OS5 und jede Menge Filter Modes über die Effekte. Darunter offenbar auch ein Allpass für interessante Flächen und Typen mit variabler Flankensteilheit.
This little tool does what you might think – add an LFO to Ableton Live that modulates any parameter that all those plugins may need to get more life into live! from Julien Bayle – the guy behing “The Matrix for Ableton Live – a vertical sequencer”
via The LFO 2.0 for Ableton Live announced … – YouTube.
just check it out – lots of very different experimental music, noises, taped and normal macbooks etc..
it had to happen – the Roland TR707 as an app – oh, guys – I used this thing for quite a time to sync up MIDI and other stuff like the Roland TR808 , and now there’s this – remember Frontline Assembly, Skinny Puppy (Mind TPI, also used the Roland TR727 on that album), Klinik and others – especially with Detroit Techno – there’s a lot of track out made of these sounds – but slightly pricey for an app – 3,99€. but well – I told you – you decide.

Telemark is a Oberheim SEM inspired synth like the Anyware Tinysizer, the Semtex XL and the Analogue Solutions Semblance are…
now, there’s a keyboard version – or well – this is some rendered graphics – maybe triggered by Minibrute and other new synths? they all know, we want to play? a good thing! maybe consider there’s 3 and 3.5 octave keyboards as well, but for a mono synth it’s not a bad thing, hope there will be octave switches – update: there ARE oct switches, but at the top – did not see them at first!! , it’s quite hard to play just 2 octaves without having those switches easy to find/press while playing and maybe also playing another synth (at least I’d think so). But ok, this one is 3 octaves, which is fine. hard to find keyboards these days…

UPDATE: real image …
time to detach the NAMM 2012 news – but for later reference – these where the cool things to remember:
• Note, that some posts are updated without notice – like more/new videos and some infos be added to the “old posts” rather than cluttering the blog with 3-4 updates on the same thing.so start from here. BTW I continue doing so after NAMM as well.
• Info: einige Updates zur NAMM und auch generell hier im Blog werden nicht extra angekündigt sondern einfach hinzugefügt zu bestehenden Einträgen, also – hin und wieder kommen hier und da noch Videos dazu. So wird es auch nach der NAMM weiter gehen.
