Creamware Menü -> Soniccore

Creamware Creamware Synth overview / überblick.. Minimoog clones – the digital Minimax ASB? Creamware did a very close clone – it’s based on the pulsar platform later the noah contained it, too but it did not sell well because of its terrible interface (4 knobs in a rack seemed not to be sexy enough..). well, it’s still a digital synth here.. but it has a lot of things that reminds of the mini.. it’s 12 voice (now!) polyphonic and adds velocity and of course midi-controller controlled.. it has the same…

Synthesizer-Diplom (Synthesetechnik/en, Wavetables)

Digitale Synthesizer 3. Synthesetechniken 3.2 Hybridsysteme / Mischformen 3.2.1 Wavetable-Synthese (Wavescanning / Wavesequencing) Die im „Wave“, dem „Microwave“ und dem „Microwave 2“ der Firma Waldorf verwendete Synthese soll hier nun näher -und stellvertretend für viele andere- exemplarisch beschrieben werden. Auch liegt es nahe, diese Geräte näher zu beleuchten, da es sich (neben Quasimidi) um eine der wenigen deutschen Synthesizer-Herstellerfirmen handelt. Dabei wird der volldigitale Microwave 2 den Hybridsystemen Wave und Microwave gegenübergestellt, die allesamt als Digitalsynthesizer in der Geschichte bereits länger verzeichnet sind: Anfangs noch von Wolfgang Palms Firma „PPG“…

Test: Roland JX8P Polyphoner Analogsynthesizer

Roland JX8P Polyphoner Analogsynthesizer BACK TO Roland MENU / zurück zum Roland Menü! Ja, simmer den heut scho’ Vintage? Es begab sich in 1984, dem Orwell Jahr. Die Oberflächen der Synthesizer veränderten sich. Eingabe der Parameter mittels eines Datenreglers und 7-Segment-LED-Anzeigen waren nun „in Mode“ gekommen. Dies machte Firmen möglich, bisher teure Geräte günstiger herzustellen. Konkurrenten seinerzeit waren andere Polyphone wie der 2 Jahre zuvor erschienene Korg Polysix, SCI Prophet 600 etc. Just in der Welle, da sich die Junos und Jupiters größter Beliebtheit erfreuten und Yamaha seit kurzem den…

Roland Alpha Juno 1 + 2, MKS50

moogulator,

– the Roland Juno + Alpha Juno Synthesizer Series ROLAND SYNTHESIZER images (click the pic to enlarge it – if available) JUNO SERIES its simple user interface and the absence of ringmode, crossmod or any other „dirtmaker“ is responsible for the juno’s sound that always sounds „good“.. but is also reduced to the minimum. it has DCOs (one DCO plus SUB with pwm,saw,noise), it’s not as versatile like the jupiter series but this may be the cause for the name: juno a moon of jupiter?.. it’s LFO has one waveform…
