Adding to the Music Laboratory Machines series, TriOsc is styled on equipment retrieved from an ancient, disused rocket launch control centre and features three oscillators with samples of valve sine and triangle waveforms taken from a rack of vintage test equipment to create dense clusters of retro sci-fi electronica.
Unique to TriOsc is the 'SERENDIPITY' button (labeled '?'). You see, TriOsc has a mind and being of its own. Clicking this button generates new patches and sounds randomly created by TriOsc that instantly evoke the spirit and electronic tonalities of the early Radiophonic Workshop, 'Forbidden Planet' and other classic sci-fi movies, Morton Subotnick, Tristram Cary and other early electronic music pioneers working with primitive equipment - an astonishing source of inspiration which can lead you down different roads of musical ideas and exploration. The randomly generated sounds can then be tweaked and shaped to your own particular needs using the comprehensive panel. They can even be saved as normal NKIs for future use.
ROUGH AND READY DEMO
The quick audio demo above is not from the Krell's music library archive but was recorded in one take, no overdubs or trickery, just clicking on the SERENDIPITY button.
Available at the end of this week.
Price - $TBA
