White Shoe and Ave Maria Videos

We just got word that the Therevox ET-4 has been used in the soundtrack for the Italian film called White Shoe: “The ever surprising story of Salvatore Ferragamo’s early life served as an inspiration for White Shoe, the short movie created expressly for The Amazing Shoemaker (opening on April 19th at the Museo Salvatore Ferragamo in Florence)”. The soundtrack was written and recorded by Los Angeles based composer Leo Z.

Also, Mario Siperman in Argentina sent in this awesome video that he recorded of himself using his ET-4 to play Ave Maria! Great stuff to see!

Therevox ET-4 on some new releases

Suuns - Images Du Futur

A few new records came out that include the Therevox ET-4. “Images Du Futur” by Suuns has been getting a lot of airplay on CJAM 99.1 here and I’ve really been enjoying it.

Besnard Lakes - Until In Excess, Imperceptible UFO

There is also a Therevox ET-4 on the newest album by The Besnard Lakes called “Until In Excess, Imperceptible UFO” that has also been on regular rotation in the Therevox workshop. Some very cool interviews with them can be found in the Montreal Gazette and La Presse (En Français).

Therevox Shop Update

We are currently in the middle of building the next batch of ET-4’s, and it is not too late to get on the waiting list for expected delivery in May. We’ve also been working on developing a few new products and I’m looking forward to officially announcing them in the next few months.

Martin with Noiseborder Ensemble

Recently we had the chance to attend a performance by the Noiseborder Ensemble. Of the many instruments they had on stage, one of them was the ET-4 that they were using to control video animations that were synched to the sound of the ET-4 which was very exciting to see.

Aeryn with ET-4

I’d also like to thank our fall Intern, Aeryn Ng. He has been helping out at Therevox for the last 4 months helping us build cases, cut wood and solder circuit boards. We’ll miss you Aeryn!

Tweed Road Case

Happy new years to Everyone! We’ve been busy in the shop working on our new Tweed Road Case, designed to fit the ET-4. The sides are made of anodized aluminum and the wooden faces are wrapped in our tweed fabric. The divider on the inside is made of walnut finished with tung oil with a serial number hand-stamped into it. The section for accessories is designed to fit our upcoming expression pedal (more on that later). These cases are a limited production, please email us for availability.

More ET-4 Customizations

These custom modifications were done to add several very cool features to the ET-4. Included is an effects loop which doubles as an external audio input with clipping indicator. Headphone jack with volume control, and a knob for filter resonance. Separate outputs were also added for a customer that wanted to send the sound of each oscillator to different amplifiers on opposite sides of the stage – very cool!
