So i posted about the ADS-7 mk2 drum synth earlier. I didn’t know AVP was showing two other products.
Both are interesting enough that they’re worth checking out.
The first is another multicontrol analog drum machine, like the ADS-7 mk2 but smaller.
Ritmobox from AVP. It sounds crazy.
Details of the Ritmobox:
This comes from their website.
RITMOBOX - is a compact, analog drum synthesizer inspired by the drum machines/synthesizers of the 70s-80s with a built-in 8-step sequencer and MIDI.
It has 37 controls, 3 switches and 14 buttons with which you can have a wide control over the sound parameters, sequencer and MIDI. It has individual audio outputs for each of the five sounds and a mix output.
Each unit is carefully hand assembled in Moscow/Russia using discrete through-hole components and OTA chips.
Main features:
- Fully analog, discrete components;
- 5 individual sound channels: CH, OH, 3 separate Generators (G1, G2, G3) each with its own oscillator, individual pulse (“kick”), noise, LFO and other modulations;
- 37 knobs/controls for different sound shaping options;
- 8-step analog sequencer with ability to program 16 steps;
- Up to 16 steps preset loading/saving slots;
- TAP and Mute/Unmute functions;
- MIDI In/MIDI Out;
- 3.5 mm individual outs;
- 6.3 mm mix output;
- 6.3 mm headphones output;
- Steel casing;
- Dimensions: L250xW220xH100 mm;
- Weight: 1,8 kg (without power supply);
- 12 VAC 220v/110v power supply (included)
Manual available at their website.
There is a thread for Ritmobox.
The other called Quadwave is a combination analog digital effects box, with analog phaser and configurable dual stereo delays. Again this has tweak as you fly controls, and old-school Russian style construction. Less on this as it’s only available soon, but worth watching. It’s not on the AVP website yet.
