"Mean SEM Ranch" - The Studio Electronics Boomstar SEM by Marc St. Regis

Who knew the SEM filter/MiniM--g style VCA hybrid would make such beautiful drums and lines together?

Boomstar SEM on YouTube!

Video of Drew Neumann's Canterbury Prog-Jazz Fest with additional SEM intro and outro sweetening - actually this is an isolated track/performance, in contrast to the collective performance of 4.22.13.

Wife Expectancy - Boomstar SEM by Drew Neumann and Marc St. Regis

Boomstar SEM on SoundCloud.

Drew Neumann gets his Canterbury Prog-Jazz on (with a not so soft machine), and I, MSR, reacquainted myself with my co-tweak/4 hands sensibilities from the discomfort my hard producer's chair.

Before I Don't Have Anything Left - Studio Electronics Boomstar 5089 by Drew Neumann

MSR — Fri, 15 Feb 2013 19:06:06 -0800

First Boomstar 5089 production unit demo here, or to parrot my favorite hackneyed "Beltway" phrase: "that's out there." 100% natural, except for the third arm. Amazing that this box can make (of all things) FM sounds - listen for 'em @ 00:00:34:17 (Filter type (4075) initially mislabeled in opening sequence--will attend to that today)

An alternative audio take for your unfiltered listening pleasure? Why not.

Drummed Up Basses - Studio Electronics Boomstar 4075 Drums and Bass by Drew Neumann

Fri, 15 Feb 2013 19:05:31 -0800

Hear and see a pleasantly chatty, live tweaking session of the Boomstar 4075 demonstrating its very capable analog synth drum and bass sound creation muscle--mystery arm and a touch of delay and reverb sweetening included, up on the tube. No EQ, or compression necessary folks, just a touch of squeezing in Peak and gain boosting in Soundbooth (yes Soundbooth has its place) to "bring" the loudness to which we've all become too accustomed, perhaps unfortunately. The spoken intro is a highlight...

Barbed Lines Suite - Studio Electronics Boomstar 4075 Video

MSR — Fri, 15 Feb 2013 19:04:50 -0800

Drew Neuman's single track twisting and turning of the Studio Electronics Boomstar 4075 - nothing too fancy as requested - for the sole purpose of getting to know the structural tonality and flexibility of this ARP-filtered SE synth, is a near revelation.

NEW BOOMSTAR DEMO FEATURING CORRECTED AND PERFECTED VCAs!

MSR — Thu, 31 Jan 2013 23:54:23 -0800

A 4 hour tour of Boomstar 4075 and 3003 sounds from top to bottom, tracked in DP7.24. No EQ, compression, or plugins, other than a gate sequencer on a freeform "NAMM iphone" recording/track to tempo match it, and one or two delays on certain lead tracks. No mixing, no mess--just a faders up affair with a few soundbite fades: all pillows removed. Component/construction kit tracks will be uploaded to SoundCloud as well.

In the composer's own words: "This is done ONLY with the 2 Boomstars--all noises, drum tracks, everything is the 4075 and 3003, overdubbed like crazy in Digital Performer. Most tracks are dry and raw, just delays on a few channels. There is just a final mastering limiter bounce on the mix file, that's it."

Greg St. Regis' clever twists and turns launched the first 4075 Boomstar past "the surly bonds of earth," via a cheap audio interface that happened to be around. More Boomstar filter type demos, live footage and markedly superior D/A Converters to follow... and yes we should have uploaded the vids to our Boomstar "Featured Channel." It's hard to remember everyting important. Next filter type demo upload, expect to find all of the material there.

We've just about done it Maria Therezia Capretta Theriot St. Regis!

BOOMSTAR! Back to the raw power and purity of discrete analog––where STUDIO ELECTRONICS started in 1985. The snap and punch of hardware envelopes drive the BOOMSTAR's brilliant voltage controlled circuits with unparalleled sonic integrity and versatility...

11.26.11 - Museum page is up / Downloadable manuals in pdf format consolidation

Vintage charm, sometimes boyish, tiger wood (no relation), MSR, Mouse n' Mike and S.E.'s own Karate Kid should make for an engaging stroll through our Gallery Productivos and Gallery Humanos "Installation Experience" in the newly refurbished and revitalized Museum.

On the Manuals Front:

All S.E. manuals in .pdf form are now to be found in a central location under the "down-up" heading/Operation Manuals: http://www.studioelectronics.com/down-up/operation-manuals/
Consolidation happens and it's proof of somewhat intelligent design.

7.21.11 - New S.E. Site

MSR — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 05:06:26 -0700

Much will be familiar to the Analogia faithful, yet far easier to access, assess and enjoy! Opaque / overly stylized copy has been sidelined in favor of a good, clean, Premium Quality American read. This retool of all things SE, was too much for one man to handle, so the dreaded "coming soon" scandal does taint the love - I / we are doing everything in our power to inform those vacant pages in the coming (there's that word again) weeks and not months. And yes we are in the planning stages of a savage and extremely versatile new SE synth slated for a 1st quarter 2012 release.

On the SE Audio Front:

The Slate Pro Audio "FOX," a brilliant dual microphone preamplifier (partner of the "DRAGON"), co-designed and manufactured exclusively by STUDIO ELECTRONICS, has been shipping for the beter part of two weeks to glowing reviews. Slate is in the process of updating their site so it is possible our links to them could become... unhelpful. We're on it though....

Please "sice" us with feedback and "friending" is always good. Thanks for your interest and support!

p.s. The "Galleria" image gallery installed on the CODE, Red Eye, Dragon and Fox pages is not yet cooperative - it was running perfectly locally; I should have it sorted out in a day or so (likewise with the search engine). Thanks for your patience Analogians.
