Point Of View
Published on Nov 17, 2012 by attorks
"Here an idea that popped up last Tuesday evening. In the beginning you hear a 9-step sequence from row 1 of the Doepfer MAQ16/3 driving 1 voice of the Oberheim OB-Mx. After that a 6-step sequence from the Synthesizers.com Q960 driving the Synthesizers.com Modular is added. Two-toned chords are played on the Waldorf Q Keyboard producing a phaser sound. Then the solo from the Nord Lead 1 is added and after that Mellotron strings from the Roland XP-80. The frequency of the MiniMoog and Oberheim VCF's on the OB-MX are opened up a bit using a Behringer BCN44 MIDI controller. And after that a 12-step sequence from row 2 of the MAQ16/3 driving the Self-Built Modular is added. Anne used my iPhone 4 to film this video.
You can download/see/hear the video and music from my website soon.
PS: I sold the Korg PE-1000 (great retro sounds but you cannot sustain them because it is a percussive instrument by design) and the Nord Wave (great machine if you are into sampling and I am not)."

"This is the last model of ARP Sequencer produced - it is better built and more in demand than the earlier verion with the wooden sides. This analog sequencer was designed to be used with the ARP 2600 and Odyssey but will work with most other analog synths with CV and gate inputs. 
Instead of entering notes from a keyboard, this sequencer gives you knobs to tweak the pitch with your fingers - all you have to do is dial up the sequence you want, with no knowledge of notes necessary. Since this sequencer outputs voltages, as long as you have the right connections on your synth, you can use it to control a lot more than just pitch. Many old synths have CV inputs for volume and filter frequency, which can also be controlled from this sequencer. This is great for people who like to tweak until they come up with something interesting. It's a much more hands on and experimental approach to making music. This sequencer is the perfect tool for recreating that early electronic music vibe, is great for making new techno loops or experimental music. It's not just limited to these styles but is best suited to them. 
Its an excellent piece to interface with most modular synthesizers because it has patchpoints for all of its features. It's a truly flexible and unique tool that is very different from most digital sequencers people are familiar with. It's also different from most other analog sequencers because it has more patchpoints and therefore greater flexibility. This is why the ARP sequencer is the most sought after of the analog sequencers."

there is a real dirty sound, i like very much, and a lot of possibilities to change the colours of sound. the instrument seems to be a harmless one, but the hands of squidfunny turned it to a dark monster. there are no effects added, just a little bit of delay."

"The Casio HZ-600 is the 'professional' version of the HT series keyboard synthesizers. Checking out the basic features of the Casio HZ-600 synthesizer that I have for sale. All keys and buttons work properly. MIDI IN and OUT also work as demonstrated along with Roland Fantom X6. A little bit of reverb added to the Casio with help of the X6. Maybe I'll find some time to make a proper demo video before it sells."

"Features a Delfy Creations (from the UK) Square Stepper. Track begins with 6 steps, then the drums (played live on SD-1) comes in with a quasi 13 half time feel. At about 19 secs, the square stepper switches to 13 steps throughout the rest of the piece. Delfy is modulated through a Moog MF-101 filter, using the low pass set to 2 pole. Distortion Guitar played on SD-1."

via Ken MacBeth on Facebook
"This prototype should get built up over the next couple of days- well looking forward to that. Somesynths that I design- I have a good idea of what they will sound like- I have half an idea here! For your interest- the stuff shown here is home-built copper/etch boards and they have an attractive look- the final production model of this may well be a white or silver frontpanel with black for the base. The keys will gold plated (kinda like synthsizer 'bling'!!)"
