SM Pro Audio
six-‐note-‐polyphonic	
  analog-‐type	
  synth	
  with	
  one	
  oscillator,	
  one	
  envelope	
  generator,	
  and	
  a	
  basic	
  
arpeggiator.	
  
ElektroStudio	
  Tapeotronic.	
  The	
  sounds	
  of	
  the	
  Mellotron	
  (a	
  ’60s-‐era	
  keyboard	
  that	
  played	
  
sounds	
  from	
  lengths	
  of	
  analog	
  recording	
  tape)	
  are	
  evoked	
  by	
  the	
  Tapeotronic.	
  Flute,	
  vocal	
  
choir, and a string section, all delightfully lo-‐fi.
e-phonic Drumatic 3. An analog-‐style drum machine that replicates some of the cool sounds
from	
  the	
  legendary	
  Roland	
  TR-‐808.	
  Graphic	
  editing	
  in	
  the	
  VFX	
  Application	
  is	
  highly	
  
recommended,	
  as	
  each	
  of	
  the	
  seven	
  drums	
  in	
  the	
  kit	
  has	
  three	
  multi-‐segment	
  envelopes.	
  (For	
  
more	
  information,

e-phonic Invader. A standard two-‐oscillator virtual analog synth that can produce a range of
sci-‐fi sound effects thanks to its dual modulators.
e-phonic Solo String. A physical model of a plucked string, with control over the string length
and decay time, plus lowpass and highpass filters in series for a fatter or thinner twang.
eSLine String Machine. A digital emulation of the ARP Solina, a ’70s-‐era analog string
machine. Just the thing to go with your lava lamp and bell-‐bottoms.
IK Multimedia SampleTank 2 SE. A good selection of multi-‐sampled instruments adds to the
V-‐Machine’s	
  sonic	
  palette.	
  SampleTank	
  gives	
  you	
  several	
  basses,	
  brass,	
  woodwinds,	
  drum	
  kits,	
  
guitars,	
  pianos,	
  organs,	
  and	
  more.	
  All	
  of	
  the	
  sounds	
  can	
  be	
  filtered	
  and	
  modulated,	
  and	
  effects	
  
can be added. (For more information, visit www.ikmultimedia.com.)
Motion. If generating hypnotic step sequencer patterns is your thing, Motion (see the graphic
editing	
  panel	
  in	
  Figure	
  3.2)	
  is	
  the	
  synth	
  for	
  you.	
  It	
  has	
  two	
  tone	
  generators	
  –	
  a	
  virtual	
  analog	
  
and	
  a	
  phase	
  distortion.	
  These	
  are	
  controlled	
  by	
  separate	
  16-‐step	
  sequencers	
  for	
  pitch	
  and	
  filter	
  
cutoff,	
  another	
  sequencer	
  that	
  sends	
  gates	
  to	
  the	
  envelope	
  generators,	
  and	
  six	
  separate	
  LFOs	
  
for rhythmic modulation. (For more information, visit www.ugoaudio.com.)
