midiPLY for Mac

midiPLY HD from juno on Vimeo.

"*midiPLY* is an uniquest eccentric Mac App that allows you real-time “Midi Modification” performance, designed extremely by Juno Ju-X

> Does One Thing: Multiplies incoming midi notes and override on any tracks in sync.

> Even more: Try with uncountable combinations of midi track and sound to find undiscovered music performance!

> Typical Setting to begin: Use midiPLY for a drum track.

Setup a midi sequencer and any midi sound module or a sampler that plays drum set sound in your Mac. Be sure the sequencer sends midi from any available virtual bus. (Let me note that GarageBand does not do this. ProTools does.)

Launch midiPLY, set BPM (default = 120) and press the “PRESS” or hit Space Bar. You will get it! Press “H” for hints to use each controls.

> midiPLY is ideal: for real-time performance with a ready set midi track. Also ideal for finding unexpected melody line that usually human won’t play.

> Available in: Mac App Store now!"

Roland A 880 8x8 MIDI PATCH Bay SN AB50231

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

via this auction

"Roland A880 MIDI Patch Bay

This is NOT a MIDI interface to and from a computer.

This unit is designed for those who have many MIDI controlled electronic instruments,

and want to be able to switch among which one is the master controller.

The A880 also helps to avoid the time delay,

characteristic of “daisy chaining” multiple MIDI units together.

Typically, the A880 goes in-between the computer’s MIDI interface, and the MIDI instruments.

Width: 17” @ case, 19” @ face plate (standard rack width)

Height: 1.25” (1 rack space)

Depth: 11.25 “

A-880 - This is an 8 X 8 midi patch bay w/ midi merging. The front panel is equipped with two pairs of midi inputs and outputs in addition to rear mounted midi jacks. Up to 64 routing configurations can be stored, and the panel has separate LED indicators showing current midi connection status or midi message status.

The A880 is a 8x8 version of the A220. Certain MIDI channels are often set for specific instrument Parts, such as MIDI Ch. 2 for a bass Part and Ch. 10 for a drum Part. Because of this standardization of MIDI channels, users must frequently change MIDI configurations for their sound sources. For example, when a user wants to switch sounds between sound sources during a song, or layer sounds from different sources, the user needs to change the Rx channels of the sound sources, or mute the specific Part, or change the Tx channels of the sequencing data. The A-220 (A-880) facilitates the handling of data for multiple sound sources so users don't have to change the various settings of Parts on sound sources."

Soundscape No 2, Inner World

Published on Jan 9, 2013 Igor Vasiliev·6 videos

"New video on one of my music impression. Warhol has some influence on perception of this composition. Details on: motion-soundscape.blogspot.com"

Details on what's going on in the track directly via Igor:

"First, it's a live improvisation recorded on an old well-known four track portastudio Tascam 424 mk III.  A bit about setup. From left to right - Doepfer Dark Time analog sequencer. It plays bass sequences on Moog Slim Phatty synthesizer (to the right from Tascam). Next, very interesting spiritual magic box called Garmonbozia from Vtol (man who invented and created this device). Why spiritual? Because it contain three Buddha machine inside. In fact, sound produced by this DIY box is very inspiring. Sound of this can hear at beginning composition about 0:18 and on.

At 0:52 start rhythmic sequencing from Korg Electribe EMX.
At 1:17 begin sounds Doepfer + Moog.
At 1:35 more intensive rhythms from Electribe.
At 1:52 it's also Garmonbozia.
At 2:55 Doepfer (random sequencing mode) + Moog.
At 3:10 sounds designed beforehand (from my own library) and playable from Roland SP-555 sampler.
At 4:42 resampled and processed sounds from Garmonbozia playable from Roland sampler.

it's all. I hope these small remarks also will be interesting for fans of musical experimentation as the final composition."

Elektron Analog Four - Sonic Lab Close Up

Published on Jan 11, 2013 sonicstate·297 videos

"We've been hearing a lot about Elektron's new analog four voice. From the stylish but somewhat obscure introduction movie which piqued our interest, to the sound audition pieces coming online as people get hold of their very own units.

The Analog Four is a new type of instrument from Elektron as it has 100% analog VCOs and Filters which are digitally controlled. Their Machine Drum and MonoMachine have been Virtual Analog and sample based.

Elektron came over from their Gothenburg HQ to give us a closeup look at the Analog Four.
Jon is the product manager and is doing the talking, Jenk the guy making all the sounds.

i make no apologies for the length of the video, its just that there seemed to be so many things to talk about. Also this is intended to be a discussion about the features of the instrument, there are many other videos available that are just audio demos - check them out.

The Elektron Analog Four is available now via selected retailers and direct from the Elektron Website."

Spectralis 2 Tutorial: Isolating one oscillator and removing all modulation sources

Published on Jan 11, 2013 acemonvw·7 videos

"This is a guide to isolating one oscillator from the Asynth to create a monophonic synth. You can use more than one oscillator for each trigger group (OSC1, OSC2, OSC3, OSC4), but you can't use each OSC for multiple TGs. In this tutorial, I go through all 27 pages and try to describe modulation sources from each that could affect your basic sounds. I use only OSC1, pass it through the LP only, and create a single oscillator saw waveform.

When I say 'caret' I'm referring to this ^ These let you know that an LCD encoder for that particular parameter has sub menus.

Yes I made a few mistakes:
@ 6:00, I mention page 8 or 9 of 12. There are 27 pages, not 12.

@ 6:35 I believe I talk about the Volume envelope bypass. I never use this function so I didn't know how to explain it, but basically, you can bypass the envelope (ADSR) and just have the sound activate and deactivate upon pressing a note.

@ 15:35, I didn't actually tell you what sequencerline I was on, it's set up as Sequencerline 11. You can set up a new sequencerline by pressing [Target], moving the first encoder under the LCD clockwise and create a new sequencerline. Then, I believe Trigger group 1 is under Asynth, but I'll go back and check later.

Cyndustries QUAD LOW PASS GATE Cynthia MOTM FORMAT

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

via this auction

"Brand New Buchla type QUAD LOW PASS GATE All-Analog Synthesizer Module in MOTM Format!

IN-STOCK! FIRST TIME WE'VE OFFERED THESE IN MOTM!

Standard MOTM type 4-Pin Power Cable and Mounting Screws Included

Add an Organic Quality to Your Sound!
In the beginning there was Light, and the Vactrol opto-coupler was born. (Well, in the early 1960's anyway)!

In these days of quantum-level high-speed electronics it might be hard to imagine why we would actually want to use such sluggish CroMagnon components as the lowly Vactrol, (essentially a photocell and a light bulb)...

Harnessing these into an alchemy of music, fire, and light was the genius of Don Buchla who thought to exploit the quirks or so-called flaws of these components for their musical capabilities instead!

Nothing can match the buttery soft response this circuit evokes when commanded "to dance!" by an impatient pulse or envelope.

That unique flitty, percussive, Subotnick trademark type sound can be realized with these gems because they are based on the original Buchla 292 circuitry. There are four on this panel, each with a switch to determine if there will be additional Low Pass coloring to the signal as it passes.

Often a signal is best processed through two or more of the module's channels in series, and always a delight when used in concert with the Modcan 08A Processor's preamp and envelope follower on external inputs.

Below are four .wav file samples featuring the Cynthia/Buchla Lowpass Gate prototype, demonstrated by Peter Grenader using a single patch in which only the Gate's modes are changed. The attack time of the envelope is increased midway through each to give an idea of the full dynamic effect of this instrument.

"The Low Pass Gates are something that I had no idea what I was buying when I ordered them. Boy am I glad I did! That sound is fantastic, so organic - slippery, rubbery textures - very cool indeed!!"
