I know many have been waiting for the VENO ORBIT from @venusinstruments to release and it's turned into a huge powerhouse of audio & CV sampling and looping. I've never had the chance to work with CV in this way before and the audio side is endless in possibilities too but fun and simple due to no menus and a control per function. Check out the full demo to see how you can play and record - on the fly - keeping musicality and creativity at the forefront without the steep learning curve. Full demo on the @divkidvideo YouTube channel. The Veno Orbit is out today with stock at @foundsound_ @ctrlmod @filtermusikk.no @nightlife_electronics @schneiderskeller @schneidersladen @signal_sounds @boutiquepedalnyc @house_of_sound_switzerland @noisebug & @synthshop_no #eurorack #euroracksynth #eurorackmodular #modular #modularsynth #synth #synthesizer #veno #orbit #venus #instruments #music #electronic #electronics #electronicmusic #ambient #looper #looping #loop #sounddesign #musictech #beatmaing #musicproduction #musicmaking

After five long years, the follow up to Open Source is finally in stores today! Open Source 02 is a 112 page hardcover book that would not exist without the contributions of a myriad of writers, musicians, installation artists, synth designers, filmmakers, illustrators, painters, printing experts, graphic designers and technicians. It has been a collaboration that spans the globe from Spain, Germany & France to Australia, Korea and Mexico. Check out the new website at opsrc.co for a lot more details on the content, collaborators and artwork featured in the book. Open Source 02 is now available at: Control in Brooklyn/New York @ctrlmod Mission Synths in SF, CA @missionsynths Perfect Circuit in Burbank/LA @perfect_circuit Control Voltage in Portland, OR @controlvoltage Initial quantities will be very limited. Please call the shops ahead of time to see if they are still carrying any copies in stock. If they are out, please express your interest. A wider release is being planned toward the end of the year around the holidays. The ubiquitously named Open Source project was born out of the motivation to give artists an enduring forum to speak to their audience and document the creative process and inspiration behind their works. Curating timeless content in a hardcover book celebrates the physical and tactile experience that has been undermined by disembodied online news feeds. It is my hope OS02 inspires people to find new ways to approach their art and to seek out the many fantastically talented contributors featured in the book. This video excerpt is from the last Open Source event in downtown San Jose and features Kurt Kurasaki @peff performing on his Buchla, Rudy Colon @rudo_rudeboi on projection art, and Danny Kim @distco on lasers. #opensourcesv #ctrlmod #missionsynths #perfectcircuit #controlvoltage #nonotak #roberthenke #eurorack #kurtkurasaki #binarysociety #monolake #siliconvalley #artbook #moma #synth

🆕 @makenoisemusic Quad Stereo Gate QXG 📦 Now Shipping From Make Noise: The Quad Stereo Gate (QXG) music synthesizer module is a Four Channel Stereo Low Pass Gate and Mixer. Like the DXG before it, the QXG utilizes a new low pass gate circuit that does not use vactrols. This circuit is 100% analog and its response was arrived at after many months tailoring it to meet or exceed the expectations that have been set by all the vactrol low pass gates that Make Noise has created over the years. Additionally the QXG adds a Vactrol button to select between a Slow, low-pass-gate-like response emulating the decay time of a vactrol (Vactrol button ON), and a Fast precision response that still maintains the gentle filtering characteristic (Vactrol button OFF). Fast response can be especially useful when patching QXG with complex and quickly-changing functions such as those generated by PoliMATHS with the OSC circuit in use. The QXG also includes a Stereo Sum Output with voltage controllable Stereo Spread to quickly route all four channels across the stereo field. Each channel also has an individual output that removes the channel from the Sum when patched. In addition, QXG includes signal and control input headers for creating pre-patched connections from the outputs of PoliMATHS and MultiMod. ↔️ Width: 12HP 📐Max Depth: 43mm ⚡️Power: 65mA @+12V, 75mA @-12V, 0mA @+5V . . . . . #modularsynth #eurorack #modularsynthesizer #eurorackmodular #studiogear

🆕 @makenoisemusic PoliMATHS 📦 Now Shipping From Make Noise: PoliMATHS is an eight-channel CV and Audio event generator for the New Universal Synthesizer System or any Eurorack modular synthesizer. It uses a single set of controls to generate complex functions at eight independent channel outputs. PoliMATHS’ functions are made up of two components: first, the well-known Rise-Fall envelope with variable Curve (familiar from the original MATHS and Function and 0-Coast Slope); and second, a variable-Shape Oscillation whose amplitude is controlled over time by the Rise-Fall envelopes. This oscillation can be either low frequency for the creation of complex control functions, or audio frequency for native generation of audio events/notes with optional tuned pitch control via 1v/oct control voltage. PoliMATHS also includes output headers for creating pre-patched connections to the control inputs of QXG. ↔️ Width: 20HP 📐Max Depth: 43mm ⚡️Power 230mA @+12V, 5mA @-12V, 0mA @+5V . . . . . #modularsynth #eurorack #modularsynthesizer #eurorackmodular #studiogear

🆕 @busycircuits Stem Ripper and Stem Ripper Expander 📦 Pre-Orders Open Shipping Monday, August 18 The Stem Ripper is a compact 8 channel audio recorder designed for immediate full patch recording without the need for external hardware. Capture all audio stems of a patch with ease. Patch stems are recorded directly to a micro SD card which can then be easily transferred to a computer to mix, edit or archive patches. Each input is recorded as an individual track in a 16bit 44.1kHz multichannel date stamped WAV file. Record time is limited only by SD Card size. Two additional tracks within the output WAV contain a configurable stereo mix down of the inputs. The module has large 20Vpp per input headroom with LED clip indication if exceeded. An optional 2HP ’Thru’ output expander duplicates the 8 inputs to a row of unbuffered outputs, eliminating the potential need for stacking patch cables at the expense of more case real estate. A suitable 64Gb SD card is included with the unit. ↔️ Width: Stem Ripper: 6HP ↔️ Width: Stem Ripper Expander: 2HP 📐Max Depth: 32mm ⚡️Power: 137mA @+12V, 0mA @-12V, 0mA @+5V . . . . . #modularsynth #eurorack #modularsynthesizer #eurorackmodular #studiogear
