Vintage Synth Explorer Forums

found this when i stumbled, quite by accident, onto the website of skot wiedmann...the machine itself is mesmerizing, and i found the sounds quite beguiling as well. anyone know anymore about this synth, this project, or wiedmann? anyone see/hear the machine itself in action at this year's NAMM, where it appeared?

Sounds very digital to me. Is it analogue?

at least it looks nice

don't know if it's analog or digital, but certainly its sounds are unconventional--and i rather like some of them, though obviously one doesn't need this thing to make them...but i thought the controls for modulating them were a trip, to say the least. for what it's worth on the analog v. digital question, the delay that seems to be a part of the synth sounds to my ears to be analog. but the apparent absence of oscillators (at least in the conventional sense) that was attributed to the synth in the brief write-up i saw suggests some kind of digital architecture, i suppose...but if it's true that it doen't have conventional oscillators (or lfo's, so the write-up claims), then what are those wave-shape-like markings at various patch points?

and pflosi, it's not a looker, no, but i do think the at-times cryptic lights and markings on the synth, and their sheer abundance, make at least for an intriguing visual experience....and if this was meant as a comment on the sound, the specific sounds may not be for you but it sounded to me as if the sounds themselves had a lot of depth and strength-in other words, full and hardly thin.

Isn't that similar to the oscillator machine Gideon (of Silver Apples) played, or am I way off base?

The Simeon was literally a load of oscillators with levers and foot pedals attached.

Looks like it could be a Lunetta based modular.
