New Kaleidoscope Synthesizer A Compact Generative Sound Lab
Developer Vadim Minkin has introduced Kaleidoscope, a compact 4-track digital multitimbral synthesizer for creating generative music.
Kaleidoscope has 4 tracks, each with its own timbre. If you place the same timbres on all tracks, you can use it as a traditional polyphonic synthesizer.
It can generate sounds using several methods, including:
- Subtractive synthesis;
- Additive synthesis;
- Physical modeling synthesis; and
- FM synthesis
Kaleidoscope has a built-in generative sequencer for creating rhythmic and parametric patterns. The generative sequencer can be used to create rhythmic patterns and parametric arpeggios.
Kaleidoscope costs €600 + shipping. Visit the developer’s site for details.
