Review: Bowie collectors and indeed anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of what was going on in the boy from Brixton's world during the early 70s, will be lapping up this massive collection of rarities and demos. There's everything from radio session material to new mixes of 'Queen Bitch', 'Song For Bob Dylan' and even a verision of 'Bombers' with Andy Warhol on its intro. There's enough here to keep the Bowie obsessive in your life happy for months.

Notes: SHTH - Sample and Hold - Track and Hold

Create stepped outputs using two different classic synthesis techniques, sample & hold and/or track & hold.

Sample & Hold

The top four jacks make up the sample and hold section. There is a noise output that is normalled to the input so you can pass a gate/trig signal into the SAMP input to get a stepped output at the OUT jack.

IN - Signal that will be sampled, normalled to NSE output
SAMP - When high updates the voltage being sent to the output
NSE - White noise output
OUT - The sampled output (freezes the value from the IN jack when the SAMP jack receives a high signal)
Track & Hold

The bottom four jacks make up the track and hold section. There is a walk signal (a randomish meandering voltage) that is normalled to the input. Track and hold is the opposite of sample and hold in that it will pass the IN value to the OUT jack until the TRACK input receives a high gate. While the TRACK input is high it will hold the value. After the TRACK input goes low, it will begin tracking the IN signal again.

IN - Signal that will be tracked
TRACK - When high the value will be held at the output
WALK - A meandering voltage
OUT - The track output (follows IN while TRACK is low, held voltage while TRACK is high)

Notes: Fuzz sculptor with an appetite

Star Eater is an all-analogue, dual footswitch super-jumbo Fuzz with a footswitchable booster and variable filter stage, allowing players to easily sculpt a massive array of inspiring, unique fuzz tones. On the fuzz side, newly-available, precision-matched transistor pairs are utilized to ensure that each and every unit is perfectly dialled in to "the sweet spot" that can be so elusive to find in vintage pedals. A rocker switch provides your choice of Germanium or Silicon colour. Downstream from the fuzz, a powerful booster stage drives the filter in the Star Eater. Scoop and Bump voicings for the filter can be selected via a rocker switch, drastically changing the frequency response of the Sweep control throughout its entire range. Built to last and designed to inspire, the Star Eater brings a unique approach and a new standard of performance to the world of boutique fuzz pedals. Runs on standard 9VDC.

Knob-by-knob

Hunger: Determines the amount of gain in the fuzz.
Volume: Determines the output level of the fuzz.
Sweep: Sets the frequency response of the filter. Note: The Sweep knob is only active when the Contour footswitch has been turned on.
Voice: Selects between Silicon (Si) and Germanium (Ge) diode clipping in the fuzz circuit.
Contour: Changes the shape of the tone.

Back to the future

Inspired by the chunky chassis feel of the late 70s and early 80s, Star Eater was designed to offer a fun, tactile user experience and make it easy for players to fine tune their own signature fuzz tone.

Notes: Gera is a component of the Leibniz subsystem that allows masking individual bits of the digital data by the use of logical AND operation.

It features 8 individual gate inputs that affect the individual bits of data, as well as 8 illuminated tact switches for manual inverting of each control input. When connected to Drezno that is processing a waveform or voltage, masking of individual bits yields various forms of quantization. However, Gera can function on its own. The AND operation is a basic building block for sequence automation, chaos and rhythm generation, and various computer-like modular patches.

Bit processing logic in Gera is hardware based, hence there is virtually no latency, and the binary signals may change at extreme rates.

Main features:

Logical AND operation on Leibniz data
Masking of individual bits controlled manually and by gate signals
Visual indication by illuminated buttons

30 mm depth (including ribbon cable brackets)

Review: In the midst of a slew of high-end reissues of New Order's classic material (including represses of the singles, no less), here comes a mouth-watering deluxe edition of their 1985 album Low-life. It's always a bold statement to call a release 'definitive' but it's hard to imagine topping this lavish box set with a 180 gram pressing plus a double CD, double DVD and accompanying book. There are full live performances from 1985 in Japan and Belgium, and every possible remix, outtake and demo version you could possibly dream of. And that's not even saying anything about the original album itself - a true totem of 80s synth pop in all its glory.

Notes: The Moon Op Amp Fuzz is a supermassive destroyer, spinning galaxies of gain. Tidal wave bass response gives you tones heavy as gravity itself.

The filter control offers an expanded range of usable tones and the filter switch gives you three distinct EQ phases: Scooped Mids 'classic', Flat EQ, or Full Range.

Feed the Moon Op Amp Fuzz with your favourite drive pedals and unlock worlds of complex tones.

The Moon's massive sound is achieved with a quad op amp delivering four stages of gain and fuzz. This circuit has its roots in Keeley's popular Dark Side pedal. In that design the tone and gain of the pedal were both tailored to be a vintage sounding fuzz for lead work. Keeley wanted to go 180 degrees in the other direction with this pedal's tone, the purpose being to achieve infinite sounding dreamy deep fuzz.

This is a punishingly heavy op amp fuzz designed to extend your guitar or bass frequencies as low as possible. This also means that your lead tones are as harmonically as rich as possible. So thick is the fuzz that your notes will rise and peak into brilliant feedback.

Keeley's most lunar sounding pedal: Moon Op Amp Fuzz.

Review: Whatever your Motely Crue needs are, you will find them in this new box. The splattered vinyl fix disc box set takes in their smash hit and multi-platinum selling studio albums Dr Feelgood, Too Fast For Love, Girls, Girls, Girls, Shout At The Devil and Theatre of Pain and all the many standout tunes from those long players which were all recorded between 1981 and 1989 which is a rather spectacular feat, not just to record that much music but for it all to be so well received amongst fans and critics. A great reminder of a great band and an ultimate collector's piece.

Review: The name 'Ocean Colour Scene' is an amalgamation of the eponymous band's three favourite words. This direct-democratic approach to band-naming should be an example to us all. But what of their music? 'Yesterday Today 1992-1997' compiles the West Midlands band's most eminent songs, which largely fall in the category of Britpop and indie. While commercial success for the group was limited (indeed bands like Oasis, Blur and The Verve were monopolizing the market), that says absolutely nothing about the quality of the music on this retrospective. Quite the contrary, actually; with selections spanning over ten studio albums, songs like 'Sway', 'Talk On' and 'Blue Deep Ocean' sound equally nostalgic and optimistic for a better musical future than now.

Review: Brum As Fuck is a massive compilation of techno bits from the legendary House Of God label, which is now celebrating its 30th anniversary. The comp contains tunes from some of the most influential and respected names in the niche 'Birmingham sound' enclave of techno, namely Surgeon, Regis, Makaton, Paul Damage, Jerome Hill, Neil Landstrumm and more. Classic HOG anthems sit side-by-side with unreleased gems, showing off the colossal sublimity of a grating yet riveting sound. The coyly named Lentil Hugger Edition is a limited and eco-friendly version of the set, featuring six vinyl records in repurposed boxes from other releases, and of course decorated with HOG stickers.
