Schubert - "Ave Maria" (Theremin + Talking Machine)

Published on Nov 30, 2012 by AlKhwarizmi
"I post this so that people don't think I'm no longer playing the theremin! I'm still playing, but lately I didn't have as much time for practice as I'd have liked.

This is an attempt at Schubert's "Ellen's Third Song", or "Ave Maria". My Moog Etherwave theremin goes through an Art Tube MP to the Electro-Harmonix Talking Machine pedal, which changes its voice, then to an Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail Plus reverb. The playing could be better - few time for practice lately...

An earlier attempt without the Talking Machine is here:"

I'm using a reverb pedal (but with much less reverb than in that previous video) and a tube EQ pedal."

Hexinverter vcNOIZ Voltage Controlled Noise Oscillator DEMO2

"Here is a rather drawn out recording of me noodling with the hexinverter.net vcNOIZ in my modular system.

Patch used: I am using the main noise output straight from the module. No filter is used. I am then feeding the /4 and /8 sub-frequency outputs through a resonant lowpass filter and mixing all 3 of those signals together. The result is a gnarly, fat textured and fully modulated via CV noise sound you simply cannot get with other modules. I bring in some LFO modulation and manual pitch modulation via the frequency control on the module itself.

Hope you enjoy :)

Module description:

vcNOIZ is a voltage controlled noise oscillator for modular synthesis. It creates crunchy sounds reminiscent of the Commodore 64 and other retro noise sources. It has exponential and linear CV inputs just like a normal VCO and also serves a random gate when clocked either internally or externally.

vcNOIZ is a unique-sounding noise source for your modular that you can build or purchase as a ready-made eurorack module in the not-too-distant future.

Yamaha CS01II Plays BIG MUFF by Depeche Mode - Cubase Screen Capture

Published on Dec 4, 2012 by peahix

"I've had several skeptics weigh in on my various Depeche Mode covers done all on my Yamaha CS01II synth, so I thought I'd make a screen-cap video showing the Cubase session for my rendition of "Big Muff." Here's the mastered version I posted previously: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IiZlvr7fXs [posted here]

In this version, you can see all my parts, and I solo all the different bits throughout so you can hear how it all comes together. Note that for several sounds there are actually two different tracks that play together to form a composite sound. The CS01II is a pretty limited synth, and in order to more accurately achieve certain sounds, I had to split things into their component parts. The channels that remain muted throughout are just the MIDI parts, which aren't outputting to anything here, since each MIDI track was recorded one at a time via the CS01II to an audio track. Anyway, hopefully this is useful or interesting to someone!!"

Doepfer announces availability of Dark Energy II Analog Synthesizer

"GRAEFELFING, GERMANY: audio hardware developer Doepfer is proud to announce availability of its new Dark Energy II Analog Synthesizer, a redesigned version of the original Dark Energy, a standalone monophonic analogue synthesizer with inbuilt USB/MIDI interfacing and CV connectivity released to much critical acclaim in 2010...

So why the need to redesign something so successful so soon? Simple. Needs must. And who better to explain this than company CEO Dieter Doepfer himself: “As the Dark Energy had to be discontinued, because an important electronic component (CEM3394) is no longer available, we decided to do a redesign. The new Dark Energy II looks like the Dark Energy at first glance, but the basic sound of the Dark Energy II is clearly different because of the new circuits for the VCO, VCF, and VCA.”

Given the absence of that rich-sounding, analogue ‘synthesizer-voice-on-a-chip’ (CEM3394) from Curtis Electromusic Specialities successor OnChip, how does the Dark Energy II sound? Still rich, still analogue — with 20 to 30 minutes tuning time needed for the VCO’s temperature-controlled pure analogue circuitry, but different... mainly because of the completely different filter type.

Notable differences in specification between the two — together with a number of functional additions to the Dark Energy II — are as follows: firstly, the Dark Energy II features a sawtooth-based VCO core (compared to the Dark Energy’s triangle-based one), which, as implied, outputs a sawtooth waveform, with a waveform Shape switch for selecting sawtooth, off, or clipped/inverted sawtooth; meanwhile, that all-important, sounding-defining VCF is centred around a 12dB multimode filter with lowpass, notch, highpass, and bandpass, together with an all-new filter Mode control for continuous transition from lowpass via notch and highpass around to bandpass (as opposed the 24dB lowpass variety with linear frequency modulation (LFM) control found on the Dark Energy); the VCF’s exponential frequency modulation (XFM) control also has a polarization function, whereby the modulation source (LFO2 or ADSR) selected by the Source switch can affect the filter frequency with a positive or negative behaviour (by rotating rightwards or leftwards, respectively); finally, the VCA has an exponential scale (unlike the Dark Energy’s combined linear/exponential scale).

Benefitting those with a modicum of electronics know-how, the Dark Energy II offers much more internal expansion possibilities than its ‘Mk I’ predecessor courtesy of pin header terminals for the following functions: rectangle and sawtooth VCO outputs, linear FM input for VCO, hard sync input for VCO, lowpass/bandpass/highpass VCF output, rectangle and triangle outputs for each LFO, and optional reset/direction features for each LFO — all conspiring to make this already flexible synthesizer even more flexible!

The upshot of those differences is that sounds created on a Dark Energy II of course cannot be replicated on a Dark Energy (and vise versa) — though there is nothing to stop the two distinctive synthesizers from being daisy-chained together to produce an even wider palette of sounds. Indeed, several units can be polyphonically or monophonically cascaded (via internal MIDI out/MIDI in connections) to create an ‘über-synth’ of sorts!

Like the Dark Energy, the Dark Energy II is a standalone monophonic analogue synthesizer with inbuilt USB/MIDI interfacing and CV connectivity housed in a rugged black metal case with wooden end cheeks; likewise, sound generation and all modulation sources are 100 percent analogue, appealing to purists — only the USB/MIDI interface includes digital components, naturally! Again, vintage-looking, high-quality potentiometers with metal shafts are used throughout, and all are fixed to the casing — except for that all-new filter Mode control — to ensure stability. Spacing between them is generous (in comparison to the necessarily smaller A-100 Analog Modular System modules like the A-111-5 Mini Synthesizer Voice equivalent of the original Dark Energy) to ease sound-shaping manipulation.

In truth, then, the Dark Energy II is — to all intents and purposes — an all-new synthesizer from Doepfer! Why not plug in and play?

Dark Energy II can only be ordered online within Germany directly from Doepfer (http://www.doepfer.de/form_e.htm) for €428.00 EURO, including VAT, or purchased from an authorised dealer. (An optional Glide control option is also available for self-installation for €10.00 EURO, including VAT.)"

EMS Vocoder System 2000

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

via the seller: "The Mighty EMS Vocoder System 2000, with 16 bands in excellent condition and 100% fully functional. It looks beautiful. This is the series II, black version with rack ears, handles, dual LED meters and in USA voltage. I am the original owner and it has less than 50 hours on it. I kept it turned off and disconnected from wall power when not in use.
I have owned most of the top vocoders with exception of the EMS 5000 and the EMS line of vocoders sound better than all of the rest in terms of raw character. The EMS 2000 has an electric punch to it that others don't have and it's sibalance is excellent too. To me it sounds better than the Moog/Bode vocoders and definitely better than the Sennheiser VSM-201.
The Sennheiser is smooth but lacks that electric punch. Electronically in terms of filters and envelopes, the EMS 2000 is close to identical to the EMS 3000 and EMS 5000. Only difference is that the 3000 has the same 16 bands/filters/envs but with attentuators and the 5000 has 22 bands and patch panel. The S/N ratio is better on the 2000 than the 3000 perhaps due to not having the attentuator circuits installed. Sure digital vocoders can do cool things, but when you hear an EMS 2000 analog vocoder with a monster Moog or Oberheim synthesizer along with vocals, some analog reverb and tube preamp...piped into a very powerful sound system, well, lets just say.....you will definitely never forget it."

Ride by side (Roland MT 100)

Published on Oct 21, 2012 by MEGASYNTH1
"This is a song created completely with the Roland MT 100 as the source sound module with simple effects like phaser, reverb, and delay added to a few parts. The effects and sequencing were all done on Reason 6.5. White noise sounds were added with an Osc. from Thor.

Sadly half way through recording I realized I had recorded the MT 100 completely in mono, so to keep things consistent I created a mono song. The Roland MT 100 is stereo capable and sounds beautiful in both mono and stereo.

Ride by side was a product of me trying to bring out the life of the Roland MT 100 the way it might have been used back in the 80's, which I kept in mind when I put the song together. I wanted to give the listener the fell of riding something fun down hill on a sunny day."

I tried to show off some of the possible sounds that could be made with the meeblip, focusing on funky presets as well as "8-bit" type sounds. I used Reason to Sequence and record the Meeblip as well as to add some delay and reverb here and there.

The other drum hits were made on the Meeblip with a noise osc. Extremely minimal processing was used."

Korg Monotribe VCO mod - FM, ringmod, sync type sounds possible

Published on Dec 4, 2012 by darenager
"New mod for the Monotribe, this one adds a lot of sound making potential, it is still in the prototype stage but hopefully the video will give an idea of the kinds of sounds you can make, from sub osc to FM, ringmod and sync type sounds. Final features may change on kits.

The first pot controls pitch, the first switch controls range low/normal/mid, the second pot controls level, and the second switch controls mode1/off/mode2. Great for drones, and weird techno sounds, you can also coax some semi realistic instrument sounds such as bass guitar and trumpet if you want. This is by no means an exhaustive demo, more and better demos will follow later. Sub to my channel if interested.

I hope to have these available as an easy DIY fit kit in early 2013, you will need to drill holes and solder 4 wires to install, check out my other Monotribe mod kits, more are coming soon and check out my blog monotribemods.blogspot.co.uk"
