Analogue Solutions Maximus Dawless Multi-Part Performance Synthesizer Analogue Solutions 2024-01-26 | The Analogue Solutions Maximus synthesizer is more than a standard polyphonic synthesizer, it's also an analogue workstation capable of full performance pieces, lush soundtracks, heavy-hitting percussion, and just about any other analogue sound you can imagine.Here, the Maximus is shown with its 8 sequencers firing different sounds, textures, and percussion. Each part is brought in separately using the stereo mixer.Live play is also included, using 2 of the 8 voices of this synthesizer.
Analogue Solutions Maximus Synthesizer | Warm Resonant Pad Analogue Solutions 2024-01-26 | Here's another example of the Analogue Solutions Maximus synthesizer acting as a traditional polysynth, where voices are duplicated and played as traditional chords.You can hear the subtle (or not-so-subtle) character differences in tone, pitch, and timbre in the individual voices, which adds character warmth and width to the overall sound.Onboard spring reverb and echo (per voice) further add depth and space to this warm pad.LFO is modulating cutoff.
Analogue Solutions Maximus Polysynth | Bass Chords Split Patch Demo Analogue Solutions 2024-01-18 | Here's an example of a split bass and chord patch on the Maximus polysynth. We say "split", when in fact, this is voice assignment and programming as follows:Maximus is utilising the onboard sequencers in voices 1 & 2 to modulate and step the filter on the lower, resonant bass sound (left hand). As all of the synth voices are independent, sequencer settings per voice can be set similarly, or, vastly different from one another depending on your desired direction.Voices 3-6 handle the voices of the live chords (right hand). Each voice is set similarly (but not exactly!) to one another.Additionally, each voice can be its own instrument, percussion, lead, or whatever your imagination holds.More soon!
Analogue Solutions Maximus Polysynth Synthesizer Fifths Unison Analogue Solutions 2023-12-18 | Maximus fifths! Here's a "little" Maximus unison patch with some panned fifths and the built-in spring reverb. The thumping effect is LFO 3, while the keyboard touch bar handles cutoff modulation duties. 🎶🎵🎹analoguesolutions.com/pagemmAbout Maximus:SOME THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH MAXIMUSStandard pad type poly soundsUnusually Poly SoundsMonophonic Synth SoundsA mixture of Mono and Poly SoundsFilmic / Epic ambience soundsRhythmic patterns, with a new sound on each keypress.Although Maximus can do traditional ‘pads’ it’s better suited to more unorthodox poly sounds. It excels also at unusual analogue loops and rhythms when it is played in cyclic mode. Have each voice set to a different type of sounds, and as you cycle through them you get very interesting patterns (melodic or otherwise).Maximus does not have patch memory - just like the very first polysynths.Every sound you create will be unique - the first of its kind ever to be produced. Your Maximus will never sound like anybody else’s. It will always be unique and yours.WHAT IS MAXIMUS?Tom Carpenter is excited to introduce Maximus, an exciting new mega-polysynth with a design ethos truly from the dawn of analogue synths.

Analogue Solutions Maximus Polysynth as an Analogue Workstation (In Realtime) Analogue Solutions 2023-12-07 | Although we label Maximus as a polysynth - it is so much more. And because of this, we can’t think of an appropriate label.Here is a quick demo of Maximus functioning as an 8-voice analogue workstation (utilising 8 onboard sequencers), mixed by the onboard stereo mixer. You can effectively create entire bodies of music with Maximus should that be your goal.Alternatively, you can create the biggest speaker-challenging unison sound imaginable -- or develop the phatest, most detuned pads.When you think of a polysynth you think of flat synths with one set of controls that control all voices equally.

Analogue - as in really analogue. Aside from the MIDI chip (which has to be digital), everything else is totally analogue using real transistors and op-amps. There are no CPU stabilised and quantised circuits, no DCOs, no digital LFOs and no digital EGs, as found on other so-called analogue synths. The circuitry is based on designs dating back to the mid-1970s. So Ample has a genuine old sound.

VCO3 can be used as an LFO and has Saw, Triangle and Square wave modulation signals.Analogue FilterAmple uses a four pole 24bB per octave low pass filter.Analogue AmplifierThe VCA can be set to THRU so it is always ‘open’. This allows Ample to be used as an effects processor.2x Analogue EnvelopesThere are two EGs – each having full control over ATTACK, DECAY, SUSTAIN, and RELEASE.ModulationGreat thought has been placed into modulation route choices, allowing a wide range of sounds to be produced, including percussion and ‘modular’ sounds further extended by patching with the jack sockets and pin matrix.MIDIMIDI is intentionally kept simple – so you can concentrate on making new sounds and making music – not getting tied up with SYSEX programming.You get the all-important control over filter cut-off using MIDI Velocity. Patchable External CV Control SocketsAmple has many input and output audio and CV sockets - to allow the synth to be effectively re-wired to make new sounds.The sockets also enable it to be easily used with Eurorack and other modular systems. They can be patched together.SequencerAmple has a vintage-style 16-step sequencer. Touch KeysThere are 6 touch keys that each output a set voltage.

Analogue Solutions Colossus Slim AS200 Synthesizer Analogue Solutions 2023-02-22 | Introducing the AS200 Colossus "Slim", a synthesizer designed for those who want a powerful analogue sound in a smaller space. 🔗 AS website: colossus-synth.com/colossus-2This space-saving version of the original Colossus classic (AS100) compromises very little to obtain its smaller footprint, over 50% smaller, and is a little taller than the classic. It takes some of the features found in the classic's horizontal console and flips them vertically.The Colossus Slim has more mixer inputs, fully independent pin matrices, and a lower price tag than the classic version. However, the classic version has larger pin matrices and touch keyboards. The Colossus Slim comes with a two-channel LCD oscilloscope as standard, while a CRT scope is available.We've designed the Colossus Slim to elegantly stack on top of a Colossus Classic for a grand double-height system. This synth is purely for those who want it just as it was in the 1970s - but new with parts still in production. Colossus is large-scale, featuring large knobs that control metal shaft potentiometers, and VCOs have multi-turn verniers. The two enormous pin matrix panels dominate the vertical panels.There are two spring reverbs, step sequencers, moving coil meters, joysticks, and so much more. An immense expanse of jack sockets for additional patching within or without the system.Colossus is a serious analogue powerhouse of sound enclosed in a solid metal case wrapped in solid hardwood. No expense has been spared to bring this incredible machine to life. Synthesizers like this only come around once in a decade or possibly a generation.

Analogue Solutions Colossus Classic | Slim Double Stack (AS100 & AS200) Synthesizer Variants Analogue Solutions 2022-04-13 | More info: colossus-synth.com/colossus-3Double SystemColossus slim has been designed to elegantly stack on top of a Colossus classic for a grand double-height system.If you already have a Colossus classic, you can still buy the slim at a later date and stack this on top - or just keep it separate.Both work as stand-alone systems, but can be cross patched together, or with other 3rd-party synths.A double system is supplied as 2 separate units. You will need at least 2 people to lift the slim on top. A 3rd is recommenced for moral support.The slim is secured in places by a selection of bolts, forming one rigid unit.AS100 Colossus ‘Classic’This is the original and best system - the full console version.It comes with a CRT scope as standard.AS200 Colossus ‘Slim’A small footprint version of the classic - taking over 50% less desk space. Features all the same audio and modulation circuits of the classic.AS200 comes with an LCD two-channel scope as standard. CRT is available as an optional upgrade.The matrices are smaller and are totally independent. They are not internally wired. This can be seen as an advantage (it’s a matter of your personal needs) since you can patch external gear into the matrices. The matrices are half-height compared to the Classic’s.AS200’s mixer has more inputs.As the slim loses the touch keyboards, play using external MIDI to CV keyboards (such as Arturia KeyStep), or using a MIDI to CV converter. Slim retains the 64-step analogue sequencer. So sequence with this and/or external CV sequencers.

Limited Edition Colossus Synthesizer (in black). Available Now! #Shorts Analogue Solutions 2021-10-30 | http://www.colossus-synth.com (all inquiries)!This is a limited edition black version of the classic Colossus synthesizer!We have chosen some of our favourite circuits from our own large back catalogue synths such as Polymath, Telemark and Vostok.Colossus is not a Synthi 100 clone - all circuits are non-EMS, Analogue Solutions’ design.The original Synthi was so large it wouldn’t fit through a standard doorway. We didn’t make that mistake but don’t underestimate its size. It will be prominent in your studio, or art gallery!It is sized at 1585mm wide, 700mm deep and 655mm high and weighing in too big to fit on the scales. It’s not entirely practical, but to be impressive physically and in sound. It will be an awesome centrepiece for your studio.*diagonal dimension is a little less for those with tight doorways - about 620mm effective width.All the voice and modulation circuits are of course 100% analogue. We purposely steered away from digital, it doesn’t have MIDI or USB (there are plenty of MIDI converter boxes out there should you need that facility). This wasn’t designed to be the solution to your modern digital studio but rather a serious analogue powerhouse of sound. There are of course digital elements to the sequencer control - that is unavoidable - even classic analogue sequencers like the ARP sequencer using digital logic chips. In fact, the Synthi 100 features a digital sequencer.This synth is purely for those who want it just as it was in the 1970s - but new with parts still in production.Colossus is large scale, featuring large knobs that control metal shaft potentiometers. VCOs have multi-turn verniers. The two enormous pin matrix panels dominate the horizontal panels - these are incredibly expensive Swiss-made broadcast-quality signal routers - 1 for CV and 1 for Audio.There are two spring reverbs, touch keyboards, step sequencers, moving coil meters, joysticks and so much more. An immense expanse of jack sockets for additional patching within or without the system.There are no gimmicks - this is pure synthesiser. A huge sound enclosed in a solid metal case wrapped in solid hardwood. No expense has been spared to bring this incredible machine to life.Synthesisers like this only come around once in a decade, or possibly a generation.Analogue Solutions is a UK based company specialising in true analogue synthesisers, sequencers and modules with over 25 years of experience in the industry.Analogue Solution instruments are hand built in England and designed by Tom Carpenter, who has hands-on involvement in all aspects of the company.Analogue Solutions award-winning products have been applauded for having a truly vintage sound that is full of character. The synthesisers have a full analogue audio path, and analogue LFOs and EGs. Also, no memories means nothing in the synth is being made sterile by CPU control. When you turn a knob you are directly changing the voltage or current in an actual synth circuit.Analogue Solutions were there right at the start of Eurorack, the third company to start producing modules.Analogue Solutions founder, Tom Carpenter, has a genuine passion for analogue synths, drawing on his years of using and owning vintage analogue synths and drum machines, which he uses, alongside AS products, in his own music productions.#Shorts #analoguesolutions #modularsynths #eurorack #synths
