  • This is Tona from Instruo. It's a 12HP saw core analogue VCO with the usual square, saw/ramp, triangle and sine wave outputs but there's also an on board wave folder that takes the sine and uses a slider to create the fold level as well as a CV input and attenuator to modulate the folding. There's also a sync and linear FM input. It tracks well, sounds great, and works great with the Ts-L as a complimentary pair of oscillators.

    Ordered CSL, Tona and Traigh earlier this week from him. I told him he had you to thank for turning me on to them.

      Hi Jack that's excellent! Good to pass that on and make me look good :) haha Traigh looks great, not heard much of it though.

    Dig the Aperture combo!

      yeah that's nice.

    really nice video, between the Tona and mangrove which one would you pick ? i already got a spectrum and want to pair up with something with an extra flavour!

    Good vid. These do look nice, I like their panel designs a bunch. Do you ever take these patches that you demo on basic stuff like VCOs and try them on *other* VCOs, to compare? How differently are two saw-core VCOs (for example) going to behave/sound, given the same control inputs? (Once you adjust for things like expected levels of control signals etc)
    I have been watching with interest the thread on MW about reverse-engineering the Jupiter 8 VCO... seems like it had a slightly mangled saw wave. Maybe that was part of the magic

      Hi John, there's certainly some more subtle differences but it's not a massive thing. The big changes are all downstream, folders, filter, shapers etc. Often in how they respond to modulation they can differ but the raw tones aren't hugely different. I haven't done any massive experiments to compare them but maybe that's something interesting for a future video.
      The inaccuracies in the saw wave you mention is the CSAW in Braids from Mutable instruments. You can exploit the slight notch in the square and also PWM that point, which makes for an interesting sound.

    Thanks :-)

      no worries, gonna have a live stream with Jason/Instruo to chat about the range of oscillators. A few people want some comparisons.

      DivKidVideo good stuff... I will look out for that and hope it's not past my bedtime :-D

      probably 8pm, maybe 7pm UK start. Nothing set yet.

    Man I can not decide if I want to get this one used or just get the Dixie 2 that everyone seems to recommend

    Hello, which are the richer sound on the basic waveforms at your ears? Ajh MINIMOD VCO or InstruoTONA?

    • @DivKid
      @DivKid  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Without having them side by side it's hard to say. They'll be similar, they're raw analogue waveforms. There's potentially also a slight level difference that will skew the results of any kind of listening tests. I'd simple go with which feature set speaks to you most. Wide coarse knob, or octave shifting, classic Moog waves (including the shark tooth) or classic waves plus the wave folder. Do you need linear and exponential FM?

    I feel like the Ts-L has more features and takes up less hp

      Hi Ken, it does. Half the size, sub and the wave folder has symmetry control that Tona doesn't and there's no dedicated square but the unique tri/square/pyramid wave with CV over. It's a triangle core where as Tona is a saw core so it's a different tone and also the folder on Tona has both manual control and a CV attenuator for the folding. It's also not as cramped. So it's not as simple as just saying it's bigger and simpler ... but yes it is bigger and simpler! :)

    um...can anyone tell me where the -12v pin on this oscillator is plz?

    • @YTNUKLR
      @YTNUKLR 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      -12V at down-facing side of of the module

  • @lukaskoninger3312
    @lukaskoninger3312 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    dude how many different oscillators are they gonna release this year?

    • @DivKid
      @DivKid  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      2 this year. Tona I think was last year, Troika was before that. Ts-L is new and Cs-:L is new. Going to having a live stream to take questions about the different designs and approaches a week on Sunday if you want to hear more about the Instruo oscillators.

    • @lukaskoninger3312
      @lukaskoninger3312 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      alright i completely missed tona last year

    • @DivKid
      @DivKid  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah it was very much under the radar for a while I think like a lot of the Instruo stuff.

    Any suggestions for samplers

    • @DivKid
      @DivKid  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      samplers to do what? There's a few options in the format.

    • @moondog297
      @moondog297 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Looking for eurorack sampler for audio.

    • @DivKid
      @DivKid  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, but there's lots of ways to work with samplers and do various things. What would you like to do with the audio? Sample live on the fly? Sample playback? What sort of control over the samples do you want?

    Where can you buy these??

    • @titustwimbly1
      @titustwimbly1 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dane Flannery I believe you have to buy direct from Instruo currently. You can email them if you want one, they are very helpful.

    • @DivKid
      @DivKid  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Dane, yeah Luke is right sales are direct at the minute but they are looking to ramp up production and get these into shops soon.

    Kermit colour patch cables ewwww

    • @DivKid
      @DivKid  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      luckily we're here to talk about the Tona and not patch cable colour! :) ... but noted, I just grab whatever is to hand for the demos.

    • @theinternetseekers2436
      @theinternetseekers2436 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It was a throw away comment mate don't read too much into it xD

    • @DivKid
      @DivKid  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      ah ok, hard to tell. I didn't think it was anything too serious. It does bring up the chance for some cable marketing though "Kermit and Miss Piggy cables" just throw some pink cables in and you're Muppets cable bag is good to go :)

    • @theinternetseekers2436
      @theinternetseekers2436 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Lmao!!! I see what you did there xD
