Designer Ken MacBeth tests out the prototype of his upcoming MacBeth Studio Systems Nexus touchpad synthesizer.
Here’s what he has to say about the demo:
As I finalize the design of the NEXUS synthesizer for production- I took it the prototype through to the work bench. Basically- the work/refinements are complete. This recording has no external effects- the only sounds are from the NEXUS itself!
I’ve designed a synthesizer that has the type of sound, similar to that used on the David Bowie trilogy that was recorded in Berlin in the seventies- see what you think!
more like Nexus SIX, amirite??
Someday this will be mine!
I’ve been resisting this kind of hardware… but this looks great.
Wow. I want one Please!
Now that’s a great solo voice. The touch pad echoes the Buchla Thunder a bit, which is inspiring. I do wish people would use less vibrato, though. It obscures the basic tone too much. When his patches were a bit more static, I could hear the real character of the synth and as usual, its got muscle. I look forward to hearing what people do with this one; its subtly different from most synths. There’s an added layer of intimacy to the interface that grabs me. That’s a neat trick with a keyboard-centric type like me. I put synths of this caliber in a folder I think of as Cello, because they have a bigger than usual range. Classy!
t know about you, but last time I checked, the Reval was done in. Make sure to
sure to investigate a number relocation companies to make your move convenient.
Her brothers — who consider themselves white — continue to refuse any
contact with her. Finally, it is important to remember that
the country that you want to relocate to may have local laws and regulations that will apply in your case and
it is best to choose a company that has experience of this.
