ROLAND - JUPITER X / JUPITER XM

Roland's
, new version(s), of the Jupiter are DSP - based. That means, their sound, is generated digital.


4 oscillator, 32 voices, 5 parts (4 synth & 1 drum), 3 filter with "type - switch", 2 envelopes, 2 LFO, effects (overdrive, chorus, delay, reverb, compressor, master - eq), sampling - option, layer - function, sequencer, arpeggiator, sync, cross - and ring - modulation.

4000 tone - presets, 256 user - tones, more than 90 drum - kits.

Like, the System - 8, the Jupiter - X can work with Plug - Outs (in this case, they're called Models).

The Jupiter - X / Xm, can reproduce some of Roland's classic sounds, like Jupiter - 8, Juno - 106, SH - 101, XV - 5080, JX - 8P, RD - Pianos, TR - 808, TR - 909, CR - 78, TR - 707 and more.

The Jupiter - X, is the full - size version, with 61 - note Keyboard.

The Jupiter - Xm, is the physically shrinked version, with a 37 - note slim keyboard, but with the same, technical, functions. And, it can be used, with batteries and it has, a built - in, speaker.

The Jupiter - Xm, will be available, in September 2019.

The Jupiter - X, will be released, in the United States, in April 2020.

Price: Jupiter - X €2.499 and €1.499 for the, smaller, Xm - version.

KORG - WAVESTATE

The Wavestate, want's to be seen, as a kind of a successor, of the original Wavestation by Korg.

The Wavestation, is a famous synthesizer by Korg, that was produced, between 1990 and 1994.

Now Korg, is bringing back, this legendary concept, with modern features.

The Wavestate has 64 voices (stereo), 4 layer with vector - control, flexible wave - sequencing options (organized inside of 4 "lanes"), a lot of filter - models (digital), 3 envelopes, 1 vector - envelope, 3 LFO, 2 mod - processor, exponential velocity, release velocity, polyphonic aftertouch (only via MIDI), 2 key - track, program / performance - note count, program / performance - voice count, poly - legato, gate/ gate + damper, arpeggiator, randomize - function, a lot of effects (up to 14 per performance)..

"Of course, KORG also provides all of the Wavestation’s samples (including all options), plus a huge library of Wavestation Wave Sequences."

That's really, nice..!!

Also, a joystick, for the vector - function, a 37 - note keyboard (regular size), stereo - out, headphone - out, MIDI (DIN), USB..

"Ships with over 240 Performances, 740 Programs, and 1,000 Wave Sequences
Storage for tens of thousands of user Performances"

Price: €799

CLAVIA - NORD WAVE 2

Right, before Winter - NAMM 2020, Clavia unveiled the Nord Wave 2.

It's a polyphonic, multi - timbral synthesizer, with 48 voices, 4 layer (can be used, as individual engines).

It's generating, it's sounds, via virtual analog synthesis but can, also, use samples and it provides wavetables plus an FM - option with 4 operator.

You can group, multiple layer, so that they can Share, the same settings (filter, envelope, effects, LFO (five waveforms), arpeggiator.

It's featuring, a unisono - mode, 6 filter - types, many morphable parameter, 3 split - points, osc - sync and a AD / AR - envelope (modulation).

And, there is, a master - clock to synchronize the arpeggiator and some effect - parameter.

You can, transfer and edit your own samples, using the sample - editor by Clavia.

Features:
°Dedicated volume/pan fader
°Sample, virtual analog, wavetable and FM synthesis
°48 - voice polyphony
°OLED for program and oscillator sections

°FM with up to 4 operator
°True unison mode
°LFO with five waveforms
°Flexible syncing and routing options
°AD/AR - envelope
°ADSR - amp envelope
°12/24 dB lowpass, lowpass m, band pass, high pass, and LP+HP
°Filter - drive
°ADSR - envelope
°FX - section with tremolo, pan, ring - modulation, chorus, ensemble and vibe.
°EQ - section with drive
°Advanced delay - section
°Reverb - section, with five sizes + dark -, bright -, and chorale - modes

Release - date and price, are not clarified, at this moment.

BLACK CORPORATION - DECKARD'S DREAM MK2

The announced Mark 2 - version, of Deckard's Dream by Black Corporation, from Japan, is almost identically to the first edition.

There are, just, some new controls for lenght and sustain - mode. And the casing is more flat, so it can be used, as an table - top unit.

"DECKARD’S DREAM, or DDRM, features eight voices, each with two identical layered parts consisting of a 100% analog voltage controlled oscillator made with discrete waveshapers, analog lowpass and highpass filter (each with their own cutoff and resonance settings), noise generator, unique multisegment filter envelope, and VCA + ADSR envelope. Each layer also features its own independent programming section for MPE - based velocity and polyphonic aftertouch control of its filter cutoff and amplifier settings.

 

DDRM’s perfomance section features global pitch control with coarse & fine-tuning sliders, layer 2 detune slider, independent keyboard range control for each layer, mix balancing between layer 1 and layer 2, global filter cutoff and resonance offsets, and a global LFO to control both layers’ filter / pitch / amplifiers simultaneously.

DDRM was created with full expressive performance control in mind, and boasts programming sections for global MPE - based control over LFO parameters + pitchbend, as well as global key tracking control over the filter and amplifier settings of both layers. Finally, there is a global portamento / glissando slider affecting both layers simultaneously. The level of expressive control these parameters give over a performance is something found in very few synthesizers, and the result are stunning!

DDRM features full MIDI control and the ability to store 128 presets per bank across 3 banks, integrating this classic synth concept seamlessly into the future of your modern studio needs."

Price: $3749 for the fully built version (there is, also, a kit). You have to pay, a deposit, of $1199 when pre - ordering it.

KORG - MODWAVE

It's some kind of a reminisence, to the DW - 8000 by Korg.

The DW - 8000 was based, on digital waveforms. Unlike the Modwave, they can't be played dynamically like the wavetables of this new instrument. But they're implemented, in the Modwave.

The DW - 8000 had only sixteen waveforms. The Modwave is containing more then 200 wavetables, with up to sixtyfour waves. You can import custom wavetables.

It's a polyphonic instrument (32 voices), with two oscillator (us sub - oscillator), two layer, motion sequencing (four lanes), four envelopes, dual modulation - processor, a lot of different filter - types, an inbuilt sample - library, five LFO, a playful x / y - controller (Kaoss Physics), more than 30 modifier, thirteen morphing - algorithm, phase - synchronised wavetable - blending (A / B Blend) and a lot of effects.

Specification:
°32 voices (stereo).
°2 layer.
°4 envelopes.
°5 LFO.
°2 mod - processor.
°2 key - track.
°Seq Lanes (A - D).
°Step pulse.

°Mod - FX (black chorus / flanger, black phase, CX - 3 vibrato chorus, EP chorus, harmonic chorus, modern chorus, modern phaser, orange phase, Polysix - ensemble, small phase, talking modulator, vintage chorus, vintage flanger, vintage / custom wah, vox wah).
°Delay (L / C / R delay, multiband mod delay, reverse delay, stereo / cross delay, tape echo).
°Master reverb (early reflections, overb).
°Master EQ (4 - band parametric EQ).
°Filter types (MS - 20 LP or HP, Polysix LP, full collection of resonant 2-pole and 4-pole LO, HP, B, and Band Reject filter, multi - filter).
