World of Arturia-New Robbie Ryan


This is my latest vid, and please be aware it was designed for a very technical (and French-speaking) audience.

Quick terms:
Analogue Modeling: Using modern DSP chips to emulate the sound of 1970s/80s analogue music equipment
CPU: The "Brain" of the computer, including the one you're currently using.
Software Synthesizers: Computer programmes that provide very accurate facsimiles of the heavy, cumbersome synthesizers you see in the film.

Fast French:
Je t'aime beacoup: I Love You Very Much
Bon Anniversaire: Happy Birthday

The term "Grandest" in the vid is mostly referring to the large size and heavy weight of the instruments themselves, especially that beastly ARP Omni. That's really me struggling!

T-shirt spotting: "Save Alan Wilder" Alan Wilder was the main keyboardist in Depeche Mode from 1983-1995, arguably the best point in their career.

The other t-shirts you see are pictures of old analogue synthesizers.

Arturia Celebrate 10 Years With A Beautiful Hardware Synth





I've been working on a for French synthmaker
Arturia so I've had analogue modelling on the brain.


They're celebrating their 10 Year Anniversary, which is great news for any small
business, especially in the world of electronic music.


I won't be able to premiere my video for Arturia on this blog but there is a wonderful review of their first hardware synth, The Origin from our friends at Sonic State.


The Origin would be a fabulous addition to any hardware based studio as
it runs all the computer processing onboard without the need of a fast PC.
The flexibility it offers, with the ability to match up different synths and filters,
etc (all in software) is damn amazing.
I'm looking forward to Arturia's next 10 years, indeed.
