The Basement : a job to papers and example exciting, characterful equipment that may not always be the apparent option when we think of oldies.
Instruments which, when involved to a monitor, immediately add some unique miracle, even if it is due to the point that it appears to be a bit inexpensive or unique.
We requested around some helpful producers: Neil Davidge, Adrian Utley and Liam Howe were all satisfied to start up their lofts to us, and the causing option is a amazing trip into the sides beginning analog functions, providing a huge scheme of appears to be to achieve into when you need color, personality and exuberance.
The Instruments
10 different exclusive equipment in one system.
Meticulous testing : every personal observe from each orginal device is documented, catching all the difference and variance that make classic analogues so attractive.
Modelled analog behavior : oscillator move, organic strike difference, customized refrain and option results, mono method & legato
Extensive results area with unique convolution results, phaser/chorus/delay, pressure, EQ, filtration, amp acting, super speed etc.
Mini 700
A easy monosynth by Korg from 1974, the same era as the Minimoog and the Roland SH2000. It has semi-fixed factors, with a option of toggle changes providing restricted modifying of these. It has a very fat, zappy audio, and amazing huge colored manages. The narrow (Traveler) is particularly exciting, with a LPF and HPF partial connected by interlock faders.

Polyphonic and detune ways added
RS202 Series Machine
Dating from 1976, the RS202 is 61 observe poly phonic, with Post I, Post II and Steel audio resources, and a divided key-board - any audio could by allocated to either area of the laptop key-board. The option refrain impact was a key part of the sound trademark, leading to its traditional, fizzing disco string audio.The RS202 is an all-time traditional string device.
Brass, Series II & Series II configurations completely sampled

Additional narrow and EGs added
Jennings Univox
Dating from 1951, and a real oddity. The first digital purpose of Tom Jennings who later went on to make Vox amps AC15, AC30 etc. The Univox was used by the Beatles during their beginning Give times in Gatwick and can be observed on Telstar by the Tornados.In about 1951/1952 the Univox took off in a big way due to its aggressive cost and Tom's nation extensive system. The first edition was the J6, personal key-board design, later followed by the J10 with two series of Overall tone & impact an eye. All designs were provided with steel screw-on segments, to secure it under the right side part of a guitar. Later we developed an flexible chromed take a place that allowed the customer to do jobs in other places with out having to attach on solving supports everytime. Most clients in those times were either Pub entrepreneurs or pianists enjoying Pub jobs.
This particular Univox has an excellent reputation as it was financed to us by Adrian Utley from Portishead. Study more about it on our Blog

Korg LP10 Electronic Piano
Korgs first ever digital guitar, the unclear, wonderful shades of the LP10 were not totally genuine, but with retro-spectacles on it has a lot of appeal. With Piano, Power guitar and Clav configurations and a useful forming EQ, but no speed understanding.

Hammond Solovox
The USA precurser to the Jennings Univox, created in North america for Hammond by the North Power Organization, New york between 1940 and 1948. A mono-phonic, device motivated key-board device with a personal firm cupboard, the audio was depending on only one LC oscillator which had a regularity variety of one octave. The indication from the oscillator was then approved through a string of 5 regularity partitioning to make a further two octaves. On the top part of the device there were a string of huge thumbs managed control buttons for oscillator variety (switch-able +/- 3 octaves: 'soprano', 'contralto', 'tenor', 'bass'), vibrato, strike time, 'deep tone', 'full tone', '1st voice', 2nd voice', 'brilliant' and a change for choosing woodwind, string audio or silence.

Godwin Series Show 249
Little known as opposed to RS202 and Arp Omnis etc, but actually this string synth has one of the most organic string appears to be you will listen to from an analog synth. Created France by Sisme, it has 49 important factors, 3 string appears to be - Guitar 16' / Viola 8' / Violin 4' manageable by faders. Its refrain and tremolo are particularly exclusive, including a fantastic glow to the audio.

SH2000
The second synth ever created by Roland (after the sh1000), it was developed to sit on top of a home body to offer extra appears to be. To that end, it is centered around presets which are chosen by a string of vibrantly colored paddle-switches, and appears to be very fat and characterful indeed. Primary narrow and LFO manages are existing, as well as 'growl' and 'wow' results, which can be connected to aftertouch to give excellent efficiency prospective.
All exclusive SH2000 presets sampled
Original Wow establishing tested for each patch

Synthi AKS
The EMS Synthi AKS is a popular device with an illustrious record. First quickly 1972 by EMS in Putney, south-west London, uk, The Synthi A was generally a convenient edition of EMS's popular VCS3 synthesiser, and the KS key-board (an unplayable 30-note touchplate) was involved to make the Synthi AKS. It cost 420.It was quickly implemented by companies Mark Eno and Light red Floyd, and has been used by trial artists ever since. The Synthi has a exclusive patching system that uses a little patchbay lines. Each of the Synthi's elements appear as a resource and location on the patchbay, and by putting a pin into that x-y place, you can path the indication from one element to the other. This was a very efficient way to make a highly efficient flip system very lightweight.
The Basement functions 3 different Synthi AKS equipment :
Multisamples : chromatically updated areas that can be padded and performed polyphincally as well as monophonically.
Loops : sequence styles produced by the Synthi and provided in Kontakt's Defeat Machine method.
FOCUS SFX : Individual strikes and appears to be from the Synthi : something it performs exceptionally well at and the resource of the actual sci-fi audio. Packed in Soniccouture's customized FOCUS customer interface, where appears to be can be audtioned and quickly planned across the whole keyabord to be performed chromatically
