Guru Josh Project’s Infinity 2008 has received something like 64 billions views on YouTube – which I guess just goes to show you how much people have been waiting to hear some trance sax.

This is a demonstration of the new Macbeth Studio Systems X-Series Dual Oscillator – a high-end modular VCO.

Demonstrating the Macbeth Dual Oscillator:

Pure oscillator sound going through a Analogue Systems VCA (RS-180), a Mackie Mixer and directly into the audio card (M-Audio) of the computer. No FX, no EQing.

First pure waveform listening and watching (sin and saw), than a little bit modulation (used the Sherman FB LFO for that) and at the end switching through the octaves with displaying the tune.

Puremagnetik has introduced Waveframe for Ableton Live 7 & Ableton Live 8.

Waveframe is designed to be a great tool for sound designers and programmers. The huge library of simple waveforms can be used to construct complex soundscapes and instruments.

Two and four-voice templates are included in the library as standalone Live Racks. Open the templates in a new track and drag your waveforms from the Waveframe Library into the voice chain. Then add effects and modulations to tailor your sound.

Waveframe Features:

• Over 1700 waveform samples
• Over 30 waveform rack devices
• A selection of preset pads, leads, basses & more
• Tightly integrated native Ableton effects & controls
• Easy hot-swapping between waveform devices

System Requirements:

• Requires Ableton Live 7 or 8
• 500 MB of physical RAM
• 300 Megabytes (MB) of free hard disk space
