Studio Snapshot : Doepfer A-189-1 Bit F*cker

Brand: Doepfer
Model: A-189-1
Link: http://www.doepfer.de/a1891.htm

It’s shiny! It’s new! It fucks up yer shit REAL good!
Doepfer finally make a bit-crusher and it’s AWESOME! it does a bunch of other stuff as well…no idea exactly WHAT it does, but it does them with that clinical precision we’ve come to expect from Doepfer.

You can control 2 functions via CV, and when it comes to BitCrushing…that equated to some lovely alien DOOOM!
When we first got this thing we put a random CV through it as you would a Sample’n’Hold to randomly open a Filter…but we were randomly controlling Bit Crushing – I’ve never heard anything like it – fantastic!

We only have the very basic set up. We would buy the complete set up, but we keep spending all our money on huge elaborate photoshoots…and whores and drugs and fast cars…

HARDCORE PONG CHALLENGES THE YOU TO A NICE GAME OF GLOBAL THERMONUCLEAR WAR

hp-sqr-4 copyRock the USA for $8K….
The Electrified collaboration of Angelspit and The Gothsicles team up to form HARDCORE PONG – an album of pounding 4bit beats with ten new tracks and remixes from top artists.
Aided by a Kickstarter video which features a shot-for-shot remake of two iconic scenes from The Matrix and War Games, The distorted duo have already funded their campaign in three days. HARDCORE PONG  now train their aimbots at more ambitious goals.
After hitting their initial goal of $2000 in 2days, with the Cyclopean stretch goal of $8000 on the horizon, HARDCORE PONG announces a US tour of cosmic dimensions! Synthetic blips & scorched out chips mutate the nation! Shows will be “live” in name only, as the concepts of time and space will be sonically compressed inward.
We are working on some very cool live interactive ideas to massively involve the audience – so the crowd become a part of the band“, says Angelspit’s Zoog Von Rock. “Our Kickstarter takes audience participation to an insane level”, adds Brian Graupner from The Gothsicles, “from personalised ring tones (AVATARI), to inviting fans to send an abusive video messages to be spliced into a song (15 Seconds Of Flame), to writing a track based on your theme and contributing vocals and appearing in the video (U R HARDCORE)

BLURB:
I bought this from a guy in Sydney around 2000. He also had an OB-Xa…but he refused to sell it. He used these two delicious machines in a cover band…yup, A COVER BAND. This FOOL put gaffer tape on this beautiful machine. He left it on there for several years. The gaffer tape is now baked on. One day i will find him. He will die a HORRIBLE DEATH.

STUDIO SNAPSHOT : Doepfer A-136 Distortion

Brand: Doepfer
Model: A-136 Distortion/Wave Multiplier
Link: http://www.doepfer.de/A136.htm

BLURB:
Similar to the A-137 Wave Shaper…but totally different. Personally I actually think the A-137 is a better distortion unit, but the A-136 is the master of Wave Shaping.

PROS:
The CV inputs can be used to get some very interesting “Morphing” happening. The sound can be radically changed with a twist of a knob.

ANGELSPIT Blipvert in The Dose about Modular Synthesizers

Cleanliness is next to Godliness, but the Devil’s gift is distortion…and Satan uses a Modular Synth!

Tired of your synth sounds? sick of softsynths? In the mood for a change?
To go modular or not to go modular…that is the question.

Firstly, it is extremely important that you understand the signal flow and basic building blocks of synthesis.
Secondly, ask yourself why you want to get into modulars. If you enjoy the art of tinkering with sound and creating complex sounds then you’re going to get hooked on modulars. But if you only use presets and slightly tweek the sounds I would suggest you experiment with a softsynth modular before forking out thousands on a modular that you might not utilise.
