Z4000 VC - Envelope Generator demo1

Published on Dec 15, 2012 by GM1ify

"In this example the Z4000 controls the frequency modulation of both Z2040s in the patch, one Z2040 is set to self oscillate while the other Z2040 pass sounds coming from the hats909. The light on the Z4000 swings from yellow to red as the envelope moves between the two polarities. Z8000 modulate the attack and sustain. Bass drum is coming from the ...yes the upcoming BD909. And a tad of delay by the Z-DSP."

Z4000 VC - Envelope Generator demo2

Published on Dec 15, 2012
"This patch is an example of how two Z4000 cross modulating each other, the out from the right Z4000 controls the frequency of the Z2040 but also triggers the left Z4000 which control the decay of the right Z4000 and on and on and on... Z3000s mix of saws are the sound going into the filter."

"Up for bid is a Roland MC-202 Microcomposer. If you're looking at this, you know that this is a classic analog synth (essentially the same synth engine as the Roland SH-101) attached to a very capable sequencer. With programmable Glide and Accents, the MC-202 can do sequences quite similar to the TB-303.

The 202 always had one key drawback: the incoming CV and Gate inputs used to trigger the internal synth had to go through the 202's internal microprocessor, which usually introduced variable delays and missed notes. This limited the 202's usefulness when driven by external sequencers.

This one, however, has been modified with a switch that allows you to choose between stock performance (using an external keyboard to program pitch values) OR to bypass the internal 202 microprocessor and go straight to the synth engine. There are some good videos on Youtube showing exactly how much better the performance of the 202 is with this mod. Only one hole was drilled for the switch (see the pics) and the switch was mounted in a relatively 'safe' place next to the Accent pot - this way, the switch won't catch on anything if you move the unit around.

Additionally, the synth has been given ALL new sliders, which feel smooth and perform perfectly. Functionally, I did a basic checkout and everything seems to work."

Elektron Analog Four + Machinedrum Dirty Techno

"Slow-paced techno with lots of dirt and grit, thanks to the overdriven analog filter through which the drums are routed. Camera stopped recording beyond 10mins, but went on jamming anyway."

Spectralis 2 Tutorials by acemonvw

Spectralis tutorial and demonstration: Machinedrum-like parameter locks
Published on Nov 7, 2012 by acemonvw

"Elektron products get a lot of buzz for having this unique 'parameter lock' mechanism, whereby certain parameters can be locked into place at any given step. I thought I would go through and show that this can be done with the spectralis as well (albeit, not as straightforward, but with more potential). I tried to make this as much of a tutorial as well as a demonstration of the capabilities of the spectralis.

In this video, I used only one oscillator (out of 4), one bass drum sample, one snare sample, and some filterbank sequencerlines. All of this could be easily done using the Spectralis mk1, as well as the mk2.

Need to create the drum sound? Follow the instructions at the website below, and route sound to the MM filter (instead of bypassing filters):
http://www.forum.radikaltechnologies.com/viewtopic.php?t=1228

I did not add any compressors, filters, or modify the sound in any way. The sum out was used and went directly into my soundcard, and into garageband. The final mix was done using iMovie. The camera used was the GR-HD1, in HD.

Please feel free to ask any questions, hopefully this was a helpful demonstration. I apologize in advance for how quickly some of my comments pass by, but you can pause it at any time, as well as ask me what I did.

The Chase

Published on Dec 15, 2012 by attorks

"Two weeks ago I bought a Moog Prodigy in pretty good shape. Since then I have cleaned the keys, key contacts and switches, I sanded and repainted the wooden parts, replaced the power elco's, drilled two holes to add CG/Gate-in jack busses and made the connection to the printboard and I tuned the VCO's. I may replace the trimpots for tuning with multiturn trimpots because tuning is very fiddly now and I don't know if the current trimpots are reliable. Anyway, after tuning the Prodigy and connecting it to the Q960 sequence I came up with this improvisation. So that's the reason you see the guts of the Prodigy. The Prodigy bass is very fat, perhaps a bit more fatter then what I can get out of the Modular. I very much like the basic approach of the Prodigy and the yet the variety of sounds you can get out of it.

The music starts with an 8-step sequence coming from row 3 of the Synthesizers.com Q960 driving the Moog Prodigy. After that an 8-step sequence from row 1 of the Q960 is driving the Synthesizers.com Modular. Percussive blips from the Waldorf Q Keyboard are added which are arpeggiated sounds synced with the MIDI clock from the Doepfer MAQ16/3. Then another 8-step sequence from row 2 of the Doepfer MAQ16/3 is added to drive the self-built Modular. Chords are played on the Roland XP-80 which MIDI-out is connected to the Oberheim OB-Mx so you hear a combination of 2 sounds when I play the XP-80 keyboard. The solo is performed on the Clavia Nord Lead 1. Anne used my iPhone 4 to film this video.

"For sale is an insanely rare EMS Vocoder 2000, from the same company that brought you the Synthi AKS and VCS3. If you've seen Battlestar Galactica you've heard this vocoder as the voice of the Cylons. An amazing sounding analog vocoder, perhaps the most intelligible ones out there of the Moog / Bode / Sennheiser VSM201 / Roland VP330 SVC-350 / Korg VC10. It just has a very nice tone to it, and most important you can really hear what you're saying without working too hard at it. In mint shape and fully functional. Looks fantastic. I've tried almost all of the ones out there, and if there was one go-to vocoder to use, this one would be it. See pictures below for more details. Don't miss out on this awesome classic!.."

Hideaway Studio S-VX Hybrid Library for Kontakt Featuring Novachord & More



"Complex Analog Oscillators with 12-bit Crunch into Curtis Filters…

For a while now I've been curious about the infamous AKAI S900 into VX90 combo and after building a 13 pin connection cable and installing an HxC virtual floppy drive in the S900 I decided to give it a go.

The results were very promising so I decided to put a new sample library together offering complex warm analog oscillator sources transposed over 5 octaves with a touch of 12-bit crunch shaped with classic Curtis VCFs and VCAs!

Raw complex oscillator sources were sampled in 12-bits on a recently refurbished AKAI S900. Sources were mainly 1976 Minimoog model D but also included ARP Omni-2, Philicorda GM751, 1939 Novachord, Juno-106 and three tube oscillators fed into a tube waveshaper.

32 complex oscillators were captured on the S900 and stored as virtual disk images on SD card.

Patches were programmed into the VX90 to modulate the Curtis filters and VCAs and the results multi-sampled as a library of 376 generously long 24-bit samples.

32 instruments were programmed up in Kontakt to form the basis for a 4-voice layering engine complete with scripted user interface.

32 example editable patches were created.

Here is a link to more background, sound demos and download page for what I think you will all find is a very tempting Christmas offer of £10:

All the best,

Akai AX-73 Analog Synthesizer

"The AX73 is a surprisingly good analog synthesizer that is still considered to be widely underrated and deserving of some recognition. It's a six voice analog synthesizer with an almost identical architecture to Akai's AX60 keyboard. It also came in a rack-mount form as the VX90. It has one oscillator (VCO) per voice and allows for 3 playing modes: Poly mode uses one VCO per voice for six voice polyphonic pads, chords and strings. Dual-VCO mode stacks 2 VCOs per voice for a thicker three-voice sound. Unison mode stacks all six VCOs onto one monophonic voice for a screamin' lead!..."

ARP 2600 Dark Thoughts, a Moment in Time.


Published on Dec 15, 2012 by DearbornJohn

"We all have" Dark Thoughts" how we choose to react to them maybe balancing on a perceived notion of sanity.I mixed this song on the spot, 5 backup tracks, 4 of those were ARP2600 and 1 was mixed in from the Boss RC300 looping station. I played a ARP2600 live and really worked the 4012 filter. I also used a RE20 Roland space echo. As always, its been alot of fun working this equipment. I hope you enjoy the song, THANK YOU very much. John"
