Macbeth X-Factor coming..

der geplante neue Macbeth Synthesizer mit Tastatur kommt bald.. the X-Factor was announced somewhere earlier here, so here is more news from the macbeth site.. …currently, the prototype is called The X Factor! This synth is totally analogue- 3 wide ranging Oscillators with 10 turn potentiometers for precise frequency control and also featuring Saw/Tri/Sine/Square- waveforms each Oscillator functions as both audio and modulator for some striking cross-modulation effects… There is a dedicated analogue LFO as well as analogue Glide… …the filter is the classic all transistor 24dB/Octave type- warm, rich…

The MIDI Manifesto – Das MIDI Manifest..

english below.. Dauerhaft sollte man nun von den sehr sich ausruhenden Herstellern zum Thema Midi. Was gebraucht wird: – Computerintern und zwischen 2 Computern sync, Controller, Parameter, Noten etc. zu transportieren – Dasselbe nach aussen – Schnell und unproblematisch – Mind 16 – 32 bit für Controlleradressierung bzw. Parametertiefe (65535 Controller mit Werten bis 65535 = 16bit) – Übertragung der Parameternamen und Werte – Prioritätenreglung (Noten, Controller = Prio1, Parameternamen Prio2, Sync: Prio0 etc..) Vorteile für Industrie – Geräte verkaufen können – Analoge können neu umgerüstet werden, neue können auf…

MS20 Filter – Ersatz (Replacement)

The Korg MS20 is a very Special machine, I added a list of alternatives (Filter only..) – If you think twice you will come to th conclusion: The MS20 ist the only one that sounds like an MS20, but the Filters are most important, the no-so-expact OSCs are also important but thats a thing that I wouldn’t really miss (I only guess here) – So what to do.? see the list.. I have checked the 106-1 from Doepfer, the filtered/black coffee etc. but they do no more than sound like…
