Koma Elektronik let us know that their Komplex Sequencer is available again, with some updated features.
The Komplex Sequencer features four full-featured 16-step sequencers, communicating via both MIDI and CV/Gate. All features have their own dedicated controls and have dedicated inputs and outputs via an 87-point patch bay. Every aspect of this sequencer is CV-able. In addition, the Komples features a seven-bank CV Recorder that can output up to 5 banks at once.
What they say about it:
“The long wait finally ends!
Due to the supply chain disruption caused by Covid-19, we had to scrape together parts from all corners of the world for nearly two years.
Finally, the last necessary chip has found its way into the box labelled “Komplex Sequencer”. We are now able to start producing a “golden sample” and organize a full production run.”
What’s new in Komplex:
The Transpose CV input now also transposes the MIDI notes that a sequencer is producing.
Some circuitry had to undergo changes to account for non-available and now obsolete chips.
The new Komplex run will be limited (2 batches of 25 pieces each), with higher pricing. Koma says that that all components have gotten substantially more expensive, ranging from electronic parts that are not available anymore, sliders and pushbuttons, and the enclosure and sidecheeks.
The Komplex Sequencer is available to pre-order for €1,999, with the first batch expected to ship in September 2023.
Joranalogue Audio Design has announced the availability of the Pivot 2 Analog Signal Router, originally introduced at Superbooth 2022.
Joranalogue Pivot 2 is a compact signal router, great for passing audio or CV through two different send and return loops, with both series and parallel capabilities. Simply pass your signal through the input to either or both of the sends, and return the affected signal to its respective receiving input.
The Pivot knob, enables you ‘pivot’ from the left send to the right send and anywhere in between. Fully counterclockwise, the first FX loop sends the signal through the following right FX loop for a series connection to the output, but the exact opposite can be said when the pivot knob is fully clockwise.
In the middle, you will produce a parallel process for warping and mangling your audio in two varied positions.
The complementary CV input and attenuverter offer hands-off control for blending and shaping of your signals, making Pivot 2 a useful choice for both complex and evolving processing as well as simple matters like basic routing and crossfading.
Features:
Analog signal router module
Mono input and output
Two pairs of send and return jacks
Complex Pivot control to blend between the two FX loops and their routing
Tsugi has released GameSynth 2023.1, the latest generation of their procedural sound design tool.
GameSynth provides a powerful audio tool set for creating the types of sound effects needed in games, animations, and movies: impacts, whooshes, footsteps, engines, particle-based sounds, environmental sounds, voice effects and more. It also provides an extensive patching environment, allowing designers to build custom sound effects synthesizers using 130+ synthesis modules.
New in GameSynth 2023:
Video playback synchronized with the drawing of sounds using the mouse. This offers a new and intuitive way to design sound to picture.
The GameSynth API to interface GameSynth with other creative tools: Unity, Blender, Reaper, Pure Data… Check all the details here.
Integration with Soundly, the popular sound effects platform.
Improved patching workflow in GameSynth’s extensive modular environment (130+ modules).
Support for the latest version of the UCS (Universal Category System).
The update is free for current users, and new users can purchase the software with an introductory discount of 30% until June 30th.
GameSynth is available with an intro price of $273 through June 30th (normally $390).
