Ghosts n Gopniks: Nov 2, 2004; Imagine how much more sad and lonely we would be if not for the hard work of lowtax. Here's $12.95 to his aid.

Crossposting from my Swedish forum, the guy was all "you guys and your massive halls of synths and racks"

Decided I was done running tests on the Casio DM100 and it sold nearly the moment I put up the sales post on a forum. I sampled 606, 808, 909, KR55, DMX, Linn and more through it beforehand because it would be bad to not, will share if so desired sometime. (no problem getting the raw wavs out of the files)

Question is, are there any VSTs trying to emulate the Casio SK/DM100 sampling circuit path? The effect cannot be replicated in hardware or software (by ordinary means), it's 8bit 9.35kHz mono if anybody wants to try. Adjusting samples on digital hardware it just becomes bitcrunch horror, in software it either becomes that or sterile garbage. I would get into 5U or Eurocrack if a replica SK/DM100 sampler throughput filter module was made.

If the Roland sampler-emulator box for NAMM 2016 turns out to be true that'll be as good as it gets, if it does it right.

The J and the K are missing from the Variation list. J and K together makes shorthand for Just Kidding.

A glowing French review of the Minilogue with samples and photos http://fr.audiofanzine.com/synthe-analogique/korg/minilogue/editorial/tests/tous-analo.html
Also a good nude of it so you can see that each voice has its own separate "card" space of circuitry. Monotimbral and lacking pedal input are amongst its very few negative points but it's overflowing with positives.

This is my fave NAMM year in like at least five years, because I just caught the Arturia MatrixBrute http://audionewsroom.net/2016/01/arturia-matrixbrute-analog-synthesizer-modular-without-the-patching.html

And again my breath is taken away. Anything else up your sleeve, MrLonghair?

Got a few Swedes on the field on another forum, gonna drop whatever drops my jaw next. (Matrixbrute expected $1800 btw)

e: AKAI coming with MPC Touch (kinda impressive, wanna try it), another MPC Studio that looks remarkably thin with an oversized knob, don't wanna bash those pads, and recordplayers BT100 and BT500 sticking to the modern technology trends ie premium as hell pricing. Thanks hipsters.

Montage comes 15 kilograms for the 61er, near 30 for the 88. Got the question of how programmable the Korg Volca FM sent out to my people, it'd be a miracle if it took dx7 sysex over midi.

"k"

says the korg will eat DX sysex but the ~~SY100~~montage won't.

Just had it confirmed from the show floor. Korg Volca FM will be 6op 3voice DX7 in a little box. Holy poo poo.

Intelligent auto-portamento? All for it.

My idea of the ultimate midi controller has a set of keys and a set of strings to be played with bow, pick or fingers, triggering the notes.
