via this auction

"1960s Vintage Hohner Bass III Bass Synthesizer

Just restored! All key contacts cleaned, circuit board resoldered and bad voltage regulator replaced. It plays in tune!

The Bass III (or 3) has three sounds: String Bass (smooth), Guitar (plucky) and Tuba (round). And two controls: Volume and "Percussion" (attack). The "Percussion" feature can be turned on or off by pulling on the knob. There is also a fine tune control which is operated by a set screw. There is one output.

This thing has awesome low end (think of the bass sounds on records by The Doors) however, it is not a Moog. There's no CV input or output, no midi, just pure sixties analog goodness."

Solvent meets the Make Noise Phonogene

YouTube Published on Aug 7, 2012 by s0LVentCIty

"Hi my name is Solvent and I make electronic music. Here is a rather indulgent video of my first experiment with the Make Noise Phonogene module. Actually, indulgent as this may be, I liked this enough to press record. I used a square wave LFO to chop the splices evenly, and the SH-101 krbrd is choosing the splices via the "Organize" Cv-in. End-of-splice ("EOS") triggers a TipTipAudio BD808 kick drum, running through the Doepfer A-189-1 Bit Modifier. Phonogene loop is processed through a Pittsburgh Modular Filter + Midiverb reverb. The source of the sample was some lame YouTube film trailer about space."

Synth Spotting with The Finger Prince on ADSR

ADSR - The Finger Prince from Tooths on Vimeo.

Note this one is cross posted on MATRIXSYNTH-C as well.

"In this episode of ADSR we meet the Sydney techno duo The Finger Prince.

We talk music writing and recording processes as they break down the mix for the title track off their 'Mao' EP - how they got the sounds and what synths and gear they used. Its all analog gear - 808, 909, 303, Juno 6, Moog, Jupiter 6 and many more... if you are into hardware you are in for a treat.

They also talk about their techno label Motorik!, their recent remix of The Presets and how acid is blame/thank for the name and more.

Delptronics LDB-1e Analog Drums Eurorack Module Now Shipping

"The LDB-1e 'Little Drummer Boy' analog drums eurorack module is very compact. Just eight trigger inputs and one audio output in a 4 HP wide module.

The module uses totally analog circuitry, not samples. Our goal was to recreate the warm sounds of the classic analog drum machines of the 80's, like the Roland TR-606, TR-808 and TR-909. The circuitry of the LDB-1e uses the same principals as the classics and produces a very similar sound.

The module contains the same drum circuitry found in the LDB-1 Drum Machine, which is a complete drum machine including a sequencer.


Eight Analog Drum Sounds
Bass Drum
Low Tom
High Tom
Snare Drum
Wood Block
Hand Clap
Closed Hi-hat
Open Hi-hat
Eight voice polyphony
All drums can be played simultaneously, including
open and closed hi-hat for a super punchy cymbal
Connect it to any sequencer or clock source
Built-in gate to trigger converter means that a 5 volt signal of any shape or duty cycle will trigger the drums
4HP wide, 61mm deep
An expansion module providing individual output and volume control for each instrument will be available soon."

Studio Time with The Horrorist

Studio Time with The Horrorist from Oliver Chesler on Vimeo.

"Today I thought I would give you a quick look at some of my workflow. Here's how I often start creating an EBM (Electronic Body Music) style track. I've started a Eurorack modular system and you can see my first two pieces in action here. I have recorded a 5V Pulse into Ableton from the Korg SyncKontrol iOS app. I loaded the click into Simpler and use MIDI to create a pattern. In this example it's a straight 16th note. I use Ableton Live to route the 5V click out of my Motu 828 MKIII into a Doepfer Dark Time analog sequencer. The Dark Time is not in sync with my Ableton MIDI set up. The Dark Time controls an Analog Solutions Telemark (SEM clone). 8 steps of CV variation and CV filter variation loop the bassline. I also have the Dark Time send a clock out to a Korg Monotribe. On the Monotribe I have muted the drums and just have it playing some lazer zap type sounds typically where you would find a snare drum. Using MIDI I have a Vermona DRM1 MKIII playing a kick and snare. The Monotribe's clock out goes into an Intellijel uStep which sends a 16th note clock to a Make Noise Echophone. I have a MFB-522 drum machine in sync with Ableton via MIDI playing a clap. This clap is sent into the Echophon where it's delay shimmers in 16 synced steps because of the uStep control. I can play with the Echophon's pitch knob for a wicked nice analog clap delay effect. Is it worth all this effort? In my opinion yes. You can't really get a sound like this without going analog. This part would make a good verse. Because I can pitch the bassline on a MIDI keyboard the next step is to make a Chorus, maybe change the Dark Time sequence length or patter slightly, add some pads from an Ensoniq ESQ-1 and add vocals. I hope you enjoyed the peek into a world where control is everything."

Music Ipad App: Drone FX

"Music Iphone Ipad app demo of Drone FX. A great app for making ambient music and atmospheric sounds. This is my first go at it and still working out a few things, such as ending a sound. A few of the sliders don't seem to do much but perhaps they do! I like though. You can get it through the app store, with a link below, for $2.99."

This piece reminded me of a modern day Twin Peaks soundtrack.
