I can test that using DRAMBO!Īnother lead from the internet postulates that the filters on the OBX voice cards each provides it's own variation in timing and depth to the cutoff and filter envelope, and it's these variations that endow the OBX with it's distinctive sound. One lead I discovered on the internet postulated that OBX sounds can be emulated by modulating a notch filter. My latest experiments involve answering my questions about why an Oberheim OBX sounds the way it does, and comparing it with the sounds of the Roland JP8 (two of my favorite vintage synths). With DRAMBO I can test hypotheses to see if they are correct. I'm researching articles about vintage synth design for finding clues.

My first endeavor is to discover "why" various vintage analog synths have distinctive sounds. Experiments can be accomplished rapidly, and as result I've become deeply fascinated with learning everything I can about the science of sound design. The DRAMBO modular system is also a very comprehensive educational tool.

I've always wished I had the ability to code and create my own synths, and DRAMBO let's me create my own synths without having to learn how to code. The best part, is DRAMBO provides tools to hide modules and compress creations, so the end result looks like an actual synth App! For me, the rack, module, and connectivity system of DRAMBO are far more intuitive, easier, and faster to work with than other virtual-modular type Apps available on iOS. But Midi can only do so much.ĭRAMBO is like having a box of Synth circuits and parts that I can use to design my own instruments and sounds. When Mosaic came out, I discovered I liked the challenge of using it for creating sounds. You can highlight groups of nodes and modules as well.Īudulus 3.5 for MacOS is available now for US $49.99.I've been buying and tinkering with iOS music apps for the past few year like I was searching for something and didn't know what it was.

This makes tracing connections much easier. When you click on a node or module, all of its output wires remain bright while all others are dimmed.
