6 Voices from Heaven:With Artemis, the Greek boutique manufacturer presents another highlight in the company's 10-year history.The analogue six-voice sound generation of Artemis has two VCOs per voice with infinitely variable waveshaping, sync function, FM and PW. A sub-oscillator or noise can be added to the VCOs. The creamy low-pass filter can be switched between 12 dB and 24 dB and modulated directly via key tracking, envelope and oscillator or noise.The first-class algorithms from SINEVIBES are once again used in the effects section. The four stereo effect blocks for distortion/bit crush, modulation FX, delay and reverb can be used simultaneously to alienate or refine the sound.Thanks to a mod matrix, connecting external MIDI controllers is also no problem; controller data such as mod wheel, polyphonic aftertouch, velocity etc. can be conveniently assigned to the parameters. The device also supports the new MPE standard.USB-B port, MIDI I/O (5 pin DIN) stereo output and a headphone socket (all 6.3 mm TRS) are available on the connection side.

Take your signature sound with you wherever you go:If you use a normal guitar amplifier for your live performances, it can be difficult to produce a consistent sound everywhere. With the compact and versatile IR-2, you can send your signature sound to your home PA or recording setup whenever you need it. Choose from eleven high-quality amplifier types in combination with Celestion Digital IRs and edit your sound quickly and easily using the intuitive controls. Use the mono/stereo loop for post-amp effects and plug in headphones to monitor sounds and practice quietly. You can also connect the IR-2 to your music software via the integrated USB-C port and load your favourite speaker impulse responses.

What makes a good amplifier sound?Tube technology, selected high-voltage components, dynamics through high-voltage technology and an uncompromising analogue signal path.The BL 800 follows exactly this path. AVTC - Analogue Virtual Tube Circuit, selected high-voltage components, 280V operating voltage and a completely analogue signal path.The BL 800 is built like a real tube amplifier, with the same components, and that's exactly how it sounds!Sound without compromise:The BL 800 delivers a clearly defined, tight sound with plenty of attack. It also has a dynamic response and reaction to the guitar's potentiometer that only good tube amplifiers can achieve. The gain reserves surpass the good old JCM800, especially when the boost is switched on. Without the boost activated, the BL 800 is an exact sound copy of the JCM 800 with a little more gain; with the boost activated, there is a decent extra boost of gain.Controls:Gain, bass, middle, treble, volume, plus a gain boost. Five controls are enough to adapt the BL800 perfectly to an amplifier. This is achieved by an active 3-band tone control that covers all sound nuances. The boost adds a further scoop of gain without changing the actual sound of the BL 800.

With its black and white "crop circles" graphic, the EVH Circles is undoubtedly one of the most striking guitars in the Striped Series. But the rest of this high-performance tone machine has nothing out of the ordinary about it either: a slim, Strat®-style basswood body, a rock-solid maple neck with an oiled finish, a fast and smooth compound-radius maple fingerboard (12"-16") with comfortably rolled edges and 22 jumbo frets, a direct-mount EVH pickup with a single black plastic control (master volume), an EVH Floyd-Rose® bridge and locking nut, and EVH tuners. EVH Striped Series gig bag, included!

With the new Digital Trigger Pads, Roland continues to drive the evolution of electric drums. Equipped with the latest technology, these innovative pads work directly with the flagship TD-50 sound module to deliver the ultimate in expressive drumming. Never before have electric drums felt so real.The new Roland PD-140DS Digital V-Pad combines traditional snares with the latest trigger technology. A brand new three-layer mesh head skin and the standard 14-size pad shell for a snare feel familiar right out of the box. A completely new multi-sensor system recognises the strike position far more precisely than previous approaches and accurately implements even the most subtle dynamic nuances. Rimshots and cross-sticks sound absolutely authentic because the pad senses your hand and immediately knows how to react. With the unrivalled expressiveness of the PD-140DS pad, every nuance of the snare is natural, detailed and full of character. Due to the connections and the required processing power, the PD-140DS can only be used in combination with Roland's new Flaggschi TD-50 sound module.

The D3V is a fully active desktop monitor system designed for composers, producers and music lovers who want to enjoy ADAM Audio's sound quality as comfortably as possible. Available in white or black, the active monitors feature the legendary gold-coloured ribbon tweeter and remain true to ADAM Audio's established German industrial design.Each pair of active speakers features 3.5-inch aluminium bass-midrange drivers and a ferrite magnet system powered by 80-watt amplifiers. The bass-midrange drivers are complemented by double-sided 3.5-inch passive radiators, giving the D3V an extended frequency response down to 45 Hz.With 25 years of experience in the design and manufacture of ribbon tweeters, ADAM Audio has designed the compact 1.5-inch D-ART (Desktop Accelerated Ribbon Tweeter). It enables the precise, unagitated high-frequency reproduction for which the manufacturer's established monitors are known.The D3V has a USB-C input. Accordingly, the monitor system behaves like a digital output device when connected to a computer and does not require an additional audio interface for playback. This plug-and-play functionality also extends to mobile devices, so that high-quality sound reproduction can be enjoyed without the data compression or conversion typically associated with such connections. The D3V also features balanced 6.35 mm TRS inputs for conventional analogue audio applications.The rear of the left speaker has a series of user-friendly switches to solve the typical acoustic problems associated with speaker placement. The front panel also features a headphone jack and a volume control that simultaneously controls audio input selection, muting and other functions.The D3V comes complete with detachable monitor stands, which are inclined at an angle of 15° towards the user's ears. In addition, there is a standardised 3/8" thread on the bottom of both monitors for mounting on microphone stands.Fully active 3.5-inch aluminium bass-midrange driver with ferrite magnet systemOptimised via ADAM Audio's state-of-the-art Klippel measurement system, the extremely symmetrical voice coils and ferrite magnets help to minimise unwanted distortion and provide a linear drive to the bass-midrange drivers. Each one-piece concave cone is made of ribbed, thick aluminium with a long linear excursion that delivers uncoloured sound even at surprisingly high output levels.The D3V is a fully active design with four amplifier channels and DSP-controlled crossover. The bass-midrange drivers are powered by 80-watt amplifiers, with the link connection cable transmitting an amplified signal to the right speaker.D-ART tweeterA quarter of a century of research and development into ribbon tweeters has led to the development of ADAM Audio's powerful 1.5" Desktop Accelerated Ribbon Tweeter. Each diaphragm is hand-folded and bonded to 40W amplifiers that drive each unit. Like all other ADAM Audio tweeters, the D-ART features a fine-tuned crossover managed by a high-precision signal processor.Passive radiatorThe D3V utilises double-sided passive radiators in each speaker, a total of four per system. Each passive radiator consists of a stainless steel plate as the moving mass and a specially stabilised long excursion rubber surround as the suspension. Together they amplify the lowest frequencies of the loudspeaker through their interaction with the main bass-midrange drivers and thus contribute to an increase in the sound pressure level of the overall system.USB-C direct inputThe D3V is ADAM Audio's most convenient monitor system to date, as it features a plug-and-play USB-C input. The speakers behave like a digital output device when connected to a computer, mobile phone or tablet, eliminating the need for an additional audio interface. This direct digital connection enables high-quality audio playback without the data compression or additional conversion typically associated with desktop monitors.DSP room acousticsThere are three switches on the rear panel of the left speaker to counteract the typical acoustic problems resulting from speaker placement. "POSITION" refers to the fixed position of the speaker in the room. "DESK" refers to the size of the desk in front of the speaker, while "ROOM" refers to the degree of acoustic damping in the room in which the system is used.Balanced analogue inputsIn addition to the USB-C input, the D3V has analogue inputs for conventional audio applications. It enables balanced connections to audio interfaces as well as direct connections to a wide range of hardware, including synthesisers, drum machines, samplers and DJ mixing consoles. The USB-C connection or the balanced analogue inputs can be selected by pressing the volume control on the left speaker.Headphone output, monitor stand and mounting optionsFunctionality and convenience played a major role in the design of the D3V. The headphone output on the front automatically takes over audio playback when connected. Monitor stands angled at 15° are also included. In addition, there is a standardised 3/8" thread on the underside of both monitors for mounting on microphone stands.Injection moulded housingThe housing of the D3V is made of high-quality ABS injection-moulded polycarbonate with thick walls and ample bracing to prevent vibrations and unwanted resonances. The rounded shape reduces unwanted sound diffraction at high frequencies while honouring ADAM Audio's long-established industrial design.
