The CEM 3394 is a complete synthesizer voice on one chip the size of half of your thumb (complete, with the exception of the envelopes).Ī small work of art to which we have already devoted the Sequential Six-Trak test report. In the meantime, the A-100 modular system has become a real money maker.īut all those discrete circuits couldnt possibly have fit into the new, svelte modular 3HE.īut it all does fit, due to the creativity of Dieter Doepfers former companion Doug Curtis. To this day, this 1 HE synth is in use in countless studios, blending in well with the silver Doepfer line built around the MAQ-163 step sequencer, the Schrittmacher trigger sequencer, etc. This analog MIDI rackmount synthesizer with its 15 knobs, 6 switches and 4 LEDs was a surprising success on the market much of which was due to its snappy TB-303 sound character. Some will be surprised that Doepfer was a pioneer there, too. So the name denotes not so much some sinister goals as its effects on the user: DARK ENERGY.Īn area not necessarily immediately connected with the Doepfer company. The Forbidding Powers are in reality small, square and not at all threatening, having been developed and brought to life in Grfelfing near Munich.Įlegantly, subtley they take posession of us, releasing artistic energies and contributing more to worlds peace than any apocalypse. And, yes, we can be assured of this: the good old USA will save the world.
