  • The Vox Continental
    Review: The Vox Continental ANDY BURTON · FEB 12, 2018 Reimagining a Sixties Icon The original Vox Continental, rst introduced by British manufacturer Jennings Musical Industries in 1962, is a classic “combo organ”. This sleek, transistor-based portable electric organ is deeply rooted in pop-music history, used by many of the biggest rock bands of the ’60’s and beyond. Two of the most prominent artists of the era to use a Continental as a main feature of their sound were the Doors (for example, on their classic 1967 breakthrough hit “Light My Fire”) and the Animals (“House Of The Rising Sun”). John Lennon famously played one live with the Beatles at the biggest-ever rock show to date, at New York’s Shea Stadium in 1965. The Continental was bright orange-red with reverse-color keys, which made it stand out visually, especially on television (which had recently transitioned from black-and-white to color). The sleek design, as much as the sound, made it the most popular combo organ of its time, rivaled only by the Farsa Compact series. The sound, generated by 12 transistor-based oscillators with octave-divider circuits, was thin and bright - piercing even. And decidedly low-delity and egalitarian. The classier, more lush-sounding and expensive Hammond B-3 / Leslie speaker combination eectively required a road crew to move around, ensuring that only acts with a big touring budget could aord to carry one. By contrast, the Continental and its combo- organ rivals were something any keyboard player in any band, famous or not, could use onstage.

    30/7/10 Page 1 INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing the Hollow Sun Vox Continental. It features samples from one of the most desirable keyboards of the 60s and 70s and which is still popular today . ABOUT THE CONTINENTAL The Vox Continental is probably the most famous of the 'new breed' of transistor organs that emerged in the early '60s. Previously, organs were built around tone-wheel technology. This undoubtedly created a fantastic (classic) organ sound but made the instruments heavy and unwieldy (and expensive). With the advent of transistors, it was possible to create lightweight, portable organs.... in theory. In practice, the majority sounded thin and weak by comparison. However, that sound in itself appealled to the new 'surf' and 'beatnik' music which was evolving at the time. The portability also appealled to groups. The Vox Continental was unusual in that it actually sounded quite good.... not cheap and cheesy like so many of its rivals. These organs used ‘divide down’ technology (like the later string synths) where there is a master top octave oscillator and all subsequent octaves are achieved simply by dividing the frequency in half and then half again and so on. It allowed these transistor organs to be manufactured very cost effectively. Although possibly better known for their amplifiers (the legendary AC30, for example), Vox actually started life as a manufacturer of 'traditional' home and church organs. With the emerging new micro' technology of transistors, they saw the possibility to use this technology in their products. 30/7/10 Page 2 The Vox Continental was the first of these (1962) and had drawbars to create sounds.

  • Historia De La Tecnología Musical - Sintetizadores
    Historia de la tecnología musical - Sintetizadores Se presentan en este artículo breves reseñas de los instrumentos musicales electrónicos previos al desarrollo de los instrumentos digitales (que alcanzaron su plenitud a partir de 1980 con los sintetizadores digitales, el sampler y las computadoras). También se hace referencia a algunas de las tendencias estéticas y corrientes musicales (hasta 1950) más ligadas al desarrollo tecnológico o más influidas por este. -1891 Dynamophon o Telharmonium de Taddeus Cahill: Considerado el primer instrumento musical electrónico plenamente desarrollado, era una especie de órgano eléctrico con generadores por ruedas dentadas (dinamos que movilizaban engranajes) que producían tensiones sinusoidales a distintas frecuencias cuyas amplitudes (volumen) podían ser atenuadas mediante resistencias determinando las características de cada registro. Pesaba cerca de 200 toneladas y, ante la inexistencia de los altavoces o parlantes, el instrumento solo podía escucharse por medio de una red telefónica. En 1906 se lo consideraba un "invento eléctrico para producir música científicamente perfecta”. -1919 Eterófono, Termenvox o Theremin de León Theremin (Lev Termen): Instrumento que utiliza generadores de ondas heterodinas y dos antenas: interfiriendo con la mano las antenas el ejecutante puede controlar la altura del sonido y su amplitud, sin tener contacto físico con el instrumento. Dado el timbre casi puro producido por el theremin, el rango musicalmente aprovechable no superaba las 4 octavas. El instrumento fue muy bien recibido en la primera época de la Revolución Rusa y Theremin realizo giras por Alemania, Francia y EE.UU. antes del ascenso definitivo de Josef Stalin en la U.R.S.S. Para la presentación en Francia fue la primera vez que se vendieron entradas de pie en la Opera de París.
