I have been licensed by Matthew to burn and offer for sale his ROMs for the Blacet/Wiard Miniwave. This is a temporary license until he is able to resume supplying them himself. Matthew has not made the Vowels ROM available for me to offer.
Comments on the available ROMs by Matthew:
Vector 1 - $35
Sine, triangle, saw and square waves in each corner of a fully interpolated 16x16 matrix. Plug a joystick into the CV inputs and go nuts. In this MP3 example, the miniwave is slaved to the sine output of an oscillator driven by a sequencer. There is chorus and delay added to the output. No filters or additional oscillators used, the tonality is shaped entirely by vectoring around the matrix.
Vector 2 - $35
Saw and square, like Vector 1, but the sine and triangle waveforms are replaced by FM- generated waves with interesting spectral content. Whereas a filter effect can be simulated by vectoring to the sine wave with Vector 1, Vector 2 is designed to be used in conjunction with a filter.
Bosch Gardens $35 A useful collection of alternate waves. Some banks are intentionally disjointed and others share common harmonic structures. One bank is designed for simple drones and brings in subtle harmonics.
Morphine $35
Smoothly transforming waves designed to add some animation to an oscillator bank. 32 unique waveforms with 14 steps of interpolation. Here is a short example of the raw miniwave output.
Scale Quantizer $35 Turn your Miniwave into a flexible scale quantizer. Classical modes, melodic & harmonic minors, major/minor pentatonics, Lydian b7, Phrygian n3 in every key. Simply page to another bank to transpose a static melodic pattern to another key. Page to another 'wave' for modal transposition. Also includes all whole tone scales, chromatic quantitization and several banks of walking melodic patterns relative to the key of C aeolian. How is this possible? Some say I employed a group of ancient Chinese virgins to painstakingly enter each of the 65536 values in this ROM and several went blind in the process. I hope you all appreciate their sacrifices.
Vowels $35 Morphing vowel sounds based on samples of my voice.
Here is an example of
the raw sound from the miniwave. Single cycle waveforms of vowel sounds are not intended to be the
ultimate in realism, but the waves do have a vocal-like quality.-->
