AVP Synth has introduced the Quadwave Multi FX, a compact analog/hybrid effects unit, featuring an analog phaser and 4 separate delays, allowing for all kinds of sound manipulations.
AVP says that the combination of the phaser with 4 delays lets you create wide, ethereal landscapes, both in the studio and live. The repeats in Delay 2 allow the input signal to self-oscillate into ‘crazy’ feedback modulation, especially mixed with the LFO delay section (tape mangling effect).
Features:
1 analog phaser with LFO and manual/cv control
2 separate stereo hybrid delays, with additional LFO delay
20 knobs/controls for different parameter settings
Control range lets you also create Chorus and Reverb type effects
3.5 mm individual CV input for manual control of the phaser modulation
Synthesizers.com has introduced the Q169 Oscillator++ module, a dual-oscillator synth voice that features a wide array of cross-modulation possibilities, an LFO, envelope generator and sample-and-hold functions in a triple-wide MU panel.
In addition, the Oscillator++ can be used as a dual oscillator in a traditional synth patch, as a stand-alone voice, as a pair of FM operators for additive synthesis, as independent functions, or as a complex modulation source.
Both audio oscillators are paired with a VC amplifier, and each can modulate the other’s pitch, pulse width and amplitude at the same time and in variable amounts.
Developer Roger Arrick says that the Q169 is the equivalent of 10 modules and 20 patch cables, arranged in a musically-useful and understandable way.
The optional Q168 Aid module provides patch points for LFO waveforms, the envelope, noise, S&H and a multi-purpose invertable attenuator.
Below quick demo of a dual-oscillator synth voice patch:
tSoniq has released a free user-oscillator for Korg ‘logue synthesizers, including the NTS-1, Minilogue XD and Korg Prologue.
unity is a multi-model virtual analogue design, that supports morphable wave-shapes and up to 19 independently detuned waveform generators per voice.
The models include simple linear wave-shaping, ring-modulation and FM. A tracking sweepable high-pass filter and overdrive unit are also included to further shape the sound.
A wide range of sounds are possible, spanning simple wave-shapes though 1970’s string synthesizers.
Unity is available now as a free download. Donation are encouraged to help support further development work.
