Press release follows:

After extensive research and dedicated efforts from our team, GS Music is proud to unveil the Bree6, our latest breakthrough in synthesizer technology. The Bree6 is a straightforward synthesizer offering six voices of polyphony, each equipped with a single voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) and a sub oscillator. It has been meticulously developed to meet the needs of both studio and performance environments. The Bree6 features a fully analog signal path that includes a 4-pole low-pass voltage-controlled ladder filter (VCF), and a voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA). The control signals are digitally generated, incorporating one low-frequency oscillator (LFO) and two ADSR- type envelope generators. Additionally, the Bree6 integrates an effects processor with chorus and delay.

Designed for straightforward operation, the Bree6 provides intuitive access to its full capabilities without complex menus, making it accessible to both seasoned professionals and those new to synthesis.

No Menu Diving

The Bree6 interface is engineered for straightforward and intuitive use, ensuring easy access to its robust features, including MIDI connections, USB, balanced stereo audio outputs, headphone output.

Signal Path

The signal path in the Bree6 is entirely analog, comprising a single VCO per voice, a sub oscillator, a mixer, a 4-pole low-pass ladder VCF, and a VCA. The control voltages are digitally generated, featuring one LFO and two ADSR-type envelope generators. It also features a stereo digital effects processor with delay and chorus.

Oscillators
The Bree6 features a single VCO plus a sub oscillator per voice. The oscillator includes sawtooth and pulse waveforms, with pulse width modulation control that can be
modulated by the LFO. The oscillator tuning can be adjusted, and modulation can be applied from the LFO. The sub oscillator generates a square wave one octave below the main oscillator.

Filter
The Bree6’s filter is a 4-pole ladder-type low-pass filter with resonance control. It can be modulated by EG1, with velocity affecting the modulation depth, and can also be modulated by the LFO. It can also be controlled by the modulation wheel and aftertouch.

Chorus and Delay
The synthesizer offers a stereo ensemble type chorus effect. It simulates a string or vocal ensemble using multiple delay lines modulated by their dedicated LFOs.
The stereo delay can reach a maximum delay time of up to 1 second.

LFO
The Bree6 contains one LFO with selectable waveforms (triangle, ramp up, ramp down, square, and random with sample and hold). The LFO’s frequency can be set from 0.1Hz
to 100Hz, and modulation can be applied to the VCO, VCF, and VCA.

Envelope Generators
There are two ADSR-type envelope generators in the Bree6, designed for precise control over the dynamics of both the filter and the amplifier.

MIDI Polyphonic Expression
The synthesizer supports MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE), facilitating detailed performance dynamics when used with compatible MPE controllers. We’ve carefully
tested the Bree6 with Osmose, Linnstrument, and Geoshred.

"Today as my birthday gift to you, I release the beta of our soundfont plugin converter.
This web app takes a soundfont file as input, let's you preview and mess around with it, and then build that soundfont as a plugin which you can then drag onto your S2400 and use as an instrument."

Elements Vol 2 - Patches 76 to 100 (of 100) - u-he - Repro 5

video upload by GEOSynths

"Out Now - https://www.geosynths.com/repro5

It's been a few years since I made Patches with REPRO, which I think is one of the best Software Synths out there to create 'Analog' style Sounds and beyond. As you can see, I have a Prophet 10 and I can get the sounds so close, it's really quite astounding.

I'm back with another 100 Patches, covering Pads & Motion, Bass & Lead, Strings & Keys and a whole lot more. As usual, all 100 Patches are demonstrated over 4 Videos - This the 2nd Video.

Requires - Repro 1.1.3 (revision 16797) and will only work on u-he REPRO 5 and not the Sequential Prophet 5/10.

This is the 4th and final Video demonstrating Patches 76 to 100"

Elastika Metal Resonance patch with MetaModule

video upload by 4ms Company

"External Audio Path:
-Main audio outputs on channel 1 and 2

Internal Audio Path:

-A VCO’s four main wave shapes are ran into a scanner which allows the user to crossfade between different wave shapes.
-The output of the crossfader goes into a shaped dual envelope VCA where a simple decay envelope is applied.
-The patch then runs into an Elastika Sapphire, where modal synthesis is applied.
-The output of the sapphire is ran through a dry/wet with the output of the VCO.
-The output of the crossfader then runs into a Mid/Side encoder/decoder to manipulate the stereo field.
-The output of the Mid/Side is fed into a valley plateau reverb
-The entire patch then goes through a limiter for volume protection.

Internal CV Path:
-Two triangle wave LFOs are cross modulated with one another and are processed by a sample and hold (LFO1 = clock, LFO2 = sample).
-Before LFO2 hits the sample and hold it is crossfed with white noise to allow random deviations of voltage to be sampled.
-The output of the S&H is used to control the pitch of VCO as well as scramble all of the parameters on the Elastika Sapphire.

MetaModule knob mappings:

A - LFO1 Frequency (clock)
B - LFO2 Frequency (sample)
C - LFO1 CV attenuverter
D - LFO2 CV attenuverter
E - Triangle/white noise crossfader for sample and hold
F - VCO main frequency
U - VCO attenuverter
V - Waveshape: crossfader for main waveshapes of VCO.
W - Decay time for main VCO pitch
X - Dry/Wet for Elastika.
Y - Reverb Dry/Wet
Z - Reverb decay time.
