Actually I heard it on a shitty videoclip on some German site, but here.. http://www.clavia.se/G2/G2Guitar.mp3 Pretty nice for an analog modelling synth. Can't wait until November, it better not be delayed again. -P |

Is that supposed to be a 'real' picture? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That is the genuine picture :D For some reason most of their new stuff is that colour. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
...and cheap looking. |
||||||||
|
|

It would look cute next to my hello kitty collection. |
||||||||
|
|

It looks like a priest blessing a cartoon synth. |

I bet when you play note c it says "this is a horse- neieiiiiiigh" and when you play note d is says "this is a cat- "meeeeeow" ha ha ha! |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha both of you :D!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Paco's gonna be jammin on that thing: *horse, horse nieeeiigh ca- cat cat ca- cat meeow!* Actually now i want one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha it probably could do those sounds. "Paco's gonna be jammin on that thing:" -Yeah I will, unless the Monomachine from Elektron is better. The Monomachine sounds I found through google: www.monomachine.com/friend "keep this link to yourself" bwahahaha |
||||||||

I'm on the Monomachine beta. It's phenomenal, even in it's beta form. If you want some samples off it, I can whip up something fun. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You make no sense whatsoever. |

Dn'to I? I toght I made prfeect sesnse . |
||||||||

|

The Monomachines are being made a 5 minute bus ride from my place. I highly doubt that you're in any kind of beta, as it is a hardware instrument. It's already available, but limited to the earlier registered customers, for the first 100 units. Hope this clears any further illusions up. |

Doubting thomas, look closely now. Apologies for the blur, I'm a bit stoned. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And two smaller ones: and . |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That looks amazing!!! What does it sound like? When can I get it? Can you post something you've made with it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tomorrow, I'll see if I can get the vocal synth to say xltronic, and put a little sound demo afterwards. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cool! I've just e-mailed them to see if I can get one.. it really does look brilliant! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Never judge kit on it's looks as a first measure. Wait until they're around and mess with one first. |
||||||||
|
|

Yes Master.. I'm young, impulsive and incredibly brave... I just checked their site, so, it's the sid station with 5 other types on synthesis? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well, it's a SID emulation... it's mebbe half what the real sid is like. Sounds a lot like QuadraSID. It's got a vocal synth (really fun), three implementations of FM synthesis, a nice pulse/saw basic VA synth, a bunch of pcm sampled wave forms and percussion bits, and the SID emulation. The synths all sound very good, characterful but not unmanagably so. The sequencer is frickin' unbelievable. That's the ace in the sleeve of the monomachine. clock is good and solid too... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
MMmmmm, I've got things that do all that but it would be fun just messing around with it in one box, in the FM bit, how many operators do you have? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Come on, post the "xltronic" sample :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My sincere apologies, nomad :) This is the Internet after all. The Monomachine does look very sexy. AGAIN, if you want to hear it: www.monomachine.com/friend -P |
||||||||

Here it is. Unfortunately, I had nothing but this crap ass minijack to dual rca with rca to quarter adaptors on it handy, so there's some noise off the thing. I'm not in my studio right now... Stoned bad electro. LOL. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Also -- no worries, Paco. Just defending my credibility. ;-] |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Heheh that sounds great! Very Kraftwerkish and not so much text-to-speech. Also, nice of Elektron to throw in SID emulation now that the numbers are so low and the prices are so high. I'm still undecided on the G2 and Monomachine. Atleast I dropped the Machinedrum from the race, I figured the MD sample CD and a K2000R with my existing samples can handle the beats. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Yeah, it's great kit. The vocal synth is cool, but it's hard to get serious variation in timbre. I've done some work to massage more harmonic vocals from it by layering cleverly sequenced synth lines beneath the phrases, but it's still clearly what it sounds like in that example. I'm pretty confident it'll become a tired sound in a year or two. The G2 will be insane. I'm on the fence about buying one because I almost see it as a rabbit hole. I could end up spending more time fidgeting than composing with a toy like that, which is dangerous. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

Spending more time on fidgeting than composing about sums it up for me and my two old nord modulars. I wish I had some sort of permanent recording wired to it. There's so much good stuff lost because you either can't reproduce it or you forget what you did. The strongpoints as I see them for the Monomachine is the larger keyboard. Different sound from yet another Clavia product and as you said, the Elektron sequecers are good, raised some reviewer's heads already on the Machinedrum. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
As for the G2 being a rabbit hole, it can be, but this time they said it's going to be much more performance orientated. I suppose they mean that it will be more like the Nordleads. More editing possibilities directly from the knobs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've got a micro modular right now, and I use it for all sorts of things. I love it's size. It's really easy to haul around and plug in between any coupla things. Great sound processor... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have the micro too, it was the first NM I bought. Then I found the rack version in a pawn shop. There are some nice patches for external processing, like the 3- and 4-band compressors. I have a patch where someone even made a vocoder from different modules. It's not as well defined as the vocoder module, but it shows that it's a pretty complex synth. Nomad, do you know when Elektron will update the MM site? I've been waiting forever for more soundclips. Hope it's not the Friend section clips. |
||||||||
|
|

Haha! "We are programmed just to do / anything you want us to / we are the robots / we are the robots." The kraftwerkian vox emulations are too impressive for words. |
||||||||
|

I've got a monomachine coming tuesday!! hee hee!! I can't wait! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just joined the Elektron Yahoo group a couple of hours ago. Seems there are still some major issues with the MM to be finalized. The thought of having a six voice/part SID is pretty mouth water! |
||||||||
|

Unless they complete forget and promise to send it to you next Monday :P |
||||||||
