Buddy Rich on Synsonics Drums?


Uploaded on Aug 22, 2009 KRO222·142 videos

"1980's Commercial for Synsonics "Drums" (from Mattel). Buddy can even make this toy sound good but also proves just how far he'd go for the right paycheck. Still a neat blast from the past."

Music on the Move Episode 1: Midi Fighter & iPhone Jam


Published on Jun 2, 2014 Kyle Mohr·11 videos

"Being a father, husband, full-time marketing employee and part-time DJ leaves very little time for actual music production and creativity. Alex and I from KM Music Productions are developing this short series of videos using different midi controllers and iOS devices to demonstrate how to utilize the most out of your commute, lunch break or any small bits of time you may have throughout the day. This way you can shove your iPad, iPhone or iPod into a bag or pocket and just hold your controller and focus on making music, pretty much anywhere.

In Episode 1 we are using DJ TechTools' Midi Fighter Classic (which is bus powered) with an iPhone 5 using the USB camera connection kit, while running the iOS app BeatMaker2.

All samples are taken from Rick Fresco's DJTT soundpack.

This jam is 100% unrehearsed, unplanned and completely improvised on the spot. This is meant for demonstration purposes and not as a performance.

Alesis Bitrman Studio Effects Unit Ring Mod/Bit Reduction/Modulation/Frequency

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

via this auction

"The Bitrman is an extraordinary effects box comprised of compression, distortion, dual phasing, and a 4th selected effect that can either be a comb, decimator, bit reducer, frequency modulator, ring modulator, or frequency shift. The 4 effects can be configured multiple ways by adjusting the 'Configure' parameter...

This unit, like the rest of the series was designed with internal 28-bit digital processing — allows you to connect to multiple units with others via the link ports (in and out) located on either side of each box. These links allow the units to pass digital audio, word clock, and power between ModFX line family members. Analog I/O is provided via 4 separate 1/4 in. unbalanced connectors. So, the cool thing is that both the Bitrman and the Metavox can be plugged directly into one another to get some crazy effects!"

Alesis Metavox Studio Effects Processor Unit Vocoder

via this auction

"These are very rare to come by these days and have been a little known secret for music producers. No longer manufacturers this is your chance to get your hands on this very versatile and one of the best sounding vocoders out there. Small enough to sit neatly in your studio or even as a foot pedal in your gigs, there is a lot of tweak age available at your finger tips.

This unit is a vocoder where the user can choose 4 different types of internal synthesizers (Saw, Rectified Saw, Square, and Noise). The synthesizer is modulated by one of 5 sources (triangle, sample and hold, triggered, "uncertainty," and tracking) that can all be beat synchronized with the aid of the "Beat Tap" button. There's also a control that allows for setting the frequency of the internal synthesizer. Another great feature of Metavox is that it also allows an external synthesis source to be input and voice-modulated."

Uploaded on Sep 3, 2007 jamescigler·30 videos

A video overview from back in 2007.

"A brief demo of the Plan B Model 28 Programmable Tap Clock and it's use in a couple basic patches.

http://felixinferious.blogspot.com/

Addendum from Peter @ Plan B:

Regarding the separate START/STOP inputs:
Doing it with two inputs instead of one is a flashback from my Buchla days. My feeling it's better this way as you can if you wish use separate signals to start and stop the counting. This way you could for instance use a keyboard trigger to start it, which would also be used to start a sequencer and reset that seq to stage 1. Then you could use the gate output of let's say stage eight of that sequencer to stop the M28. This way you can get repeated eight beat phrases from the 28 which would begin on the depression of a keyboard. It would be much harder to do that with a single start/stop input.

Blue Lantern Analog Synth Filter Workstation - SSM2164 Mankato Based

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

via this auction

"Extremely rare (one of several), early Blue Lantern handywork. Versatile desktop modular filter / synth box with numerous control and input/output options. Great for the sound scientists, much experimenting can be done here with the patchbay and connectivity/option switches with making sounds with the unit by itself (it will self-oscillate producing a very clean sine wave), in combination with your analog and modular setup, and also as a filter effect and CV source (EG & LFO outs). An excellent versatile sounding filter with switchable 12dB, 18dB, and 24dB slopes (big red knob), and it has an onboard Envelope Generator (Attack & Release) and LFO for modulation (with their own outputs), plus 2 inputs with preamps (gain and level controls). One input can be routed after the preamp and sent out the Extreme FM output also. More info on the ins, outs, and function are pasted below. This thing has that thick raw big analog filter sound to beef up your tones, create it's own tone, and provides modulation sources for other gear.

It's a very unique box and the filter is not readily available and requires building it yourself or having stg soundlabs build a module for you, which runs for $395...

"If you're clicking you know how rare and desirable these synths are - the all-black Ninja edition of the Sidstation was the most limited production run, and the last "Ninja" sold on ebay for $1,200. Only 50 were ever made - you'll likely never see another one of these! Has blue LEDs and looks awesome.

The Sidstation is the guts of a Commodore 64 with an analog filter - three syncable oscillators produce 8bit waveforms, with wavetables, ring modulation etc. Can make classic video game tones, but can do much more.

Perfect condition sonically and cosmetically, except for one tiny plastic piece that fell off a knob (see the second knob from the right in the picture) - doesn't affect operation at all. Comes with original power supply..."

Zero-G & Si Begg Extreme Environments Kontakt Instrument Intro


Published on Jun 2, 2014 Time+Space·156 videos

"For full product details and a free demo pack visit: http://www.timespace.com/product/EE-326/6/ee-326/zerog_si_begg_extreme_environments.html

Produced by Si Begg, the man behind other Zero-G titles including Distorted Dancefloors and Electro Glitch Essentials, Extreme Environments is a unique sound design tool that allows you to quickly and easily create dense and complex ambiences, ranging from musical pads through to realistic room tones and extreme sound design.

The main feature of Extreme Environments is the Kontakt instrument which combines a state-of-the-art user interface with the loops and impulse responses to give you a highly flexible tool for creating a huge variety of beds, drones, pads and FX. It comes with over 150 presets.

The core of the instrument is the three channels where you can select any one of the 142 loops. For each channel you can then control the pitch, time stretch, amplitude & filter envelopes, saturation and reverb send. All three channels are then mixed together and put through master high pass and low pass filters, then finally a limiter.

The other key part of the instrument is the convolution reverb, which any of the three channels can be sent to. You can choose any one of the 86 bespoke impulse responses, ranging from straightforward to extreme sound design. This adds great depth and atmospheric detail beyond the standard reverbs you might usually come across. The combination of all these features makes for an almost limitless palette of sound creation.

In addition the EXS24 instruments, Apple Loops, Space Designer presets and Channel Strip Settings give Logic Pro X users the option of creating their own combinations of sounds and FX within Logic. Also, the raw audio loops can also be used as building blocks to create your own beds and drones."

Limited Run of NES Synth Carts


via Ninstrument where you'll find how to order.

"Neil Baldwin has authorized a limited run of carts of PR8 and Pulsar. There will only be 6 of each title available and each will be uniquely serial numbered. Please don’t miss this opportunity to try out his amazing musical titles for the NES!

You can get more information about Neil and his awesome software at his site here: http://www.nes-audio.com/ A donation will be made for each cart purchased to the ‘Just Giving’ charity under his name, located here: http://www.justgiving.com/Neil-Baldwin

These carts are difficult to create. We have built in features that we believe will be useful. They are built on the larger SOROM boards and converted to SXROM boards. This gives us room for the hex inverter chip. Nintendo only released 2 titles on SOROM boards for the NES, so they are harder to find.We have added board level sockets so you can easily remove the Eprom and replace/upgrade easily. If there are future updated versions you can easily replace the main PRG Eprom. We have used Ciclone chips in these carts so they will work with any version NES on the planet! There are two battery holders so you can change out the battery and not lose your .sav files. The usual security screws have been changed out with regular Phillips head screws so you can gain access to the internal board easily."
