Moog Sub37 - Funky West Coast Talkbox Demo

Published on Jan 25, 2015 Dean Forrest

Check out this post from Myagi on how to make your own Talkbox.

"Before i got the Moog Sub37 i couldn't really find any demo's using sounds that i'd actually use so i thought i'd give a little back and make this video. Admittedly i got a little carried away!

All sounds (except the drums which come courtesy of some 808 samples in Battery) are made entirely on the Sub37.

I recorded straight into Reaper via a Focusrite ISA One w/Digital card. The tracks were then processed as i would in any track, although to be fair i applied very little Eq/Comp to the tracks as they just sound so damn good straight out the synth!

The Talkbox used is a Rocktron Banshee recorded via a Rode K2 Mic."

first test - moog werkstatt driving a mattson mini modular

Published on Jan 28, 2015 hewstigator

"testing my laurentide synthworks modded moog werkstatt running patches to and from the mattson modular to make sure there are no weird grounding or stability issues between the two. if you haven't seen what laurentide does to these werkstatt's you should definitely check it out - nearly all available space is taken to install a giant bevy of 1/8" jacks, a MIDI-CV converter, fine tuning, and more (even a sort of "grit" circuit is added...) basically turning this thing into a super compact, modular workhorse! (http://www.laurentidesynthworks.net/)

in this video, the werkstatt sends out a clock (via its square LFO), gate and keyboard pitch CV to the mattson, which in turn sends back an arpeggiated pitch CV to the werkstatt oscillator (you don't hear the arpeggiated oscillator until about 1:15). sorry about the wacky video angle - the area i have the modular set up is pretty tight!

all of the bwazillion patch jacks obviate the need to play the werkstatt's built-in keyboard, but it is super handy to have the tiny keyboard right there tucked in with everything else while setting up patches.

this werkstatt/mattson combo can also be heard on the track "a healer is born" starting at around two minutes in our band's latest EP (although the patch is a fairly basic since i had just gotten the werkstatt when finalizing the song!) https://thenewlines.bandcamp.com/albu..."

Arp Odyssey by Korg INHALT Line Level NAMM Recording

Published on Jan 30, 2015 INHALTVIDEO

"At NAMM 2015 we had the wonderful opportunity to play the new Arp Odyssey by Korg. Though smaller than the original it is just as much playable and the sound instantly reminded us of the pure analog Arp punch, grit, and weirdness. Nothing says minimal synth like the Arp Odyssey. Wether in the hands of Billy Currie, John Foxx, or D.A.F., the Odyssey has been a part of some of the most cutting edge and culturally important music.

While, admittedly, it was very difficult to play the synth with lot's of people bumping into us and various onlookers gazing over our shoulders, we did manage to record some raw sounds of the new Arp Odyssey. You can immediately tell that this is a genuine analog synthesizer and that it has THAT Arp sound we know and love. We hope this demo gives you just a little taste of what the Odyssey can do. Once we take delivery of our own, we will do a much more detailed recording especially utilizing analog sequencers (which the Odyssey was begging for). A massive thanks to Rich at Korg USA. We're looking forward to a White Face ;-)

The occasional clicking that you hear is the switching of the three different filter types. On the new Odyssey all three filters are available and a switch allows you to choose the different low pass types. Two are 24db and one is 12db. This was recorded direct to a Sony PCM M10 at 96k/24 bit and edited in Pro Tools HD."

"This is an improvised jam I did in my studio last night. I decided to be a bit adventurous and hooked additional instruments to my setup…. just for fun. Have to admit it didn’t turn out exactly like I had in mind.
They are all very powerful beasts, and I spent most of my time trying to tame them into something that makes musical sense.
Each jam is an adventure, full of uncertainty and risks. It's like a fight between man and machine, where you don't know for sure how they will react to your commands. Yet at times, there is harmony, and everything you're doing makes sense, and you start performing, instead of struggling... Even though these moments are rare, they are so fulfilling and rewarding that you don't want them to end...

Peace!

PATCH NOTES

Kick
Intellijel Dixie sine with the Erica Synths Polivoks Envelope Generator sending a sharp envelope to the Intellijel Dixie Controller exponential FM input (attenuated) to sweep the sine's pitch to create the kick. No VCA was used to cut off the sound as the pitch goes so low into the mixer is pretty inaudible in this patch.

Clap
Erica Synths Polivoks Modulator white noise into the Intellijel uVCA with modulation of the VCA from the WMD Multi-mode Envelope. This then goes into the Livewire Frequensteiner filter in band pass mode to shape the noise before going into my mixers.

16th note cymbal
Mutable Instruments Braids with the new 1.7 firmware in the new cymbal CYMB mode. The filtering/timbre and noise/oscillator blend along with tuning was moved manually in the video. Braids internal envelopes control the level before going to my mixer.

Offbeat hi hat
A mult. of the Polivoks Modulator noise going into the Erica Synths Polivoks Filter in band pass mode then into the Erica Synths Polivoks VCA with the trigger from ALM's Pamela's Workout going to modulate the VCA. The trigger worked out at a nice length with an envelope for the sound.

Main percussion
Mutable Instruments Elements gate rhythm triggered and generated from Pamela's Workout. I have the Polivoks Modulator LFO output modulating the Strike's Mallet type, one channel of Mutable Instruments Peaks modulating the damping of the resonator, LFO 2 from Synthesis Tech's E355 dual wavetable LFO modulating the resonator's geometry and a Frequency Central Ultra Wave modulating the resonator's position. I manually adjusted Elements coarse tuning, Blow (volume, and air flow) and space parameters. If all that sounds confusing check out the Elements page on MutableInstruments.net there's a great manual and material on their and … more importantly cough cough … go watch my overview video on my channel.

Drum mixing
Drums were mixed in the Erica Synths Polivoks Mixer and also the Manhattan Analog CP3 Mixer before going into a single channel of a Bubblesound VCA4- which I'm using as an output mixer.

Bass
Neutron Sound - Orgone Accumulator as a bass drone with modulation of the FM index from Peaks in LFO mode. This then goes into a VCA4p channel.

Drone
This is how the patch started, someone asked me about Synthesis Tech's E350 and more specifically FM on the E350. So the sound source is the E350 with FM modulation from a TipTop Audio Z3000's sine wave. The Z3000's 1V/oct is modulated by the Frequency Central System X Sample & Hold (with a lot of onboard lag/slew). The E350 shines with subtle modulation of it's wavetables so the E355 LFO2 is modulating the X wavetable position. The E350's output then goes into a Mutable Instruments Ripples (which is modulating from a different LFO from Peaks) before going into Mutable Instruments Clouds (realtime granular processing). Clouds sample/playback position and grain size are modulated from both of the Peaks LFO channels, grain density is modulated from the System X Sample & Hold and Texture is modulated from LFO1 on the E355. The output then goes into one channel of the Manhattan Analog MA35 filter and is also split into the Flame FX6. The Flame FX6 is in Reverb mode and that output then goes into channel 2 on the MA35. The filtering (low pass) and input volume of the MA35 is modulated live as well as the Bubblesound uLFO sending it's shaped sine output to modulate the MA35's cut off. As with the use of Elements in this patch … If all that sounds confusing check out the Clouds page on MutableInstruments.net there's a great manual and material on their and … more importantly cough cough … go watch my overview video on my channel."

SNAZZY FX-- tidal wave as a vco w piston honda joining in the fun plus Rene

Published on Jan 30, 2015 snazelle

"Here we have a one volt per octave sequence going straight into the tidal wave... The filter is set to high Q /sine mode. from there we simply tune with the pitch knob and we can take the signal out of many different points ( vca out ...Vcf out or vc mix out ) as the video goes on we begin mixing in the wave folder which in this patch is switch to come after the filter ( you flip the order with the toggle )

As we begin messing with the wave controls we can change the harmonic content and overall shape of the wave in conjunction with the INITIAL WAVE control ( which determines center and max height of wave) and the WS mod knob which turns up internal OR external cv to move the sound .

This is going through the wow and flutter delay

We manually use the vc crossfader to move back and forth between the sine and the Ws section

We then flip on feedback ( there are two modes ) and in this video somewhere in the middle you can hear it start to add it's own unique saturation to the sound .


Later we add the piston honda to thicken up the melody

Just one way you can use the tidal wave"

Published on Jan 29, 2015 snazelle

"In this video the Telephone Game is reading the output of the Dreamboat.that is fed into the Harvestman Piston Honda ...the "loop gate" input jack is fed chaotic gates from the chaos brother which cuts the melodic sequence into pieces....we then fed that audio into a vca with an Adsr (Bubblesound envelope ) triggered from the 4ms rcd....that same dual envelope is opening and closing the main synth line which is from the TIDAL WAVE running in voice mode as a voltage controlled oscillator with variable cv sources and internal wave folding and we are using the vca to shape that Melody...we are also using the built in a/r envelope and env out jack of the tidal wave to trigger another vca for the DRONEBANK part ....the drums are coming from the ardcore (as usual ! )"

FUTURESONUS ANNOUNCES PARVA POLYPHONIC ANALOG SYNTHESIZER

"Austin, TX, January 29, 2015 — Futuresonus is proud to announce Parva, a revolutionary new polyphonic analog synthesizer. Parva combines the classic warmth of an all-analog signal chain with the modern convenience of digital control in an elegantly designed tabletop package.

'I designed Parva from the ground up with the intention of producing a classics from the ‘70s and ‘80s,' said Futuresonus founder Brad Ferguson.

Each of Parva’s eight voices features three digitally-controlled analog oscillators, producing sawtooth, triangle, and PWM waveforms with extremely accurate pitch and rock-solid tuning stability. A pair of two-pole state-variable filters can be configured for a 12dB or 24dB low-pass or high-pass response, or split for bandpass or notch filtering. Four four-stage envelope generators and four multi-waveform low-frequency oscillators feed a flexible modulation matrix, allowing for virtually limitless sound design options.

Parva is the first analog synthesizer to feature a USB Master port, which enables the user to connect any class-compliant USB MIDI keyboard — or other controller — directly, without the need for a computer. Analog potentiometers provide immediate access to the most commonly used parameters, while the high visibility OLED displays on the front panel show additional settings, making it simple to dial in the perfect patch.

From the aluminum enclosure to the custom-machined aluminum knobs on sturdy panel- mounted potentiometers, Parva was designed with working musicians in mind, and built to last. Each unit will be hand-assembled in Austin, TX.

Parva is expected to ship in summer 2015. Pre-orders will begin in February, with the standard polyphonic Parva retailing for under $1000. An expandable monophonic version will also be available for under $500.

Futuresonus was founded by Brad Ferguson in Austin, TX in 2014, and is dedicated to designing high quality synthesizers and effects. For more information about Futuresonus, please email info@futureson.us or visit www.futureson.us."

Vintage Synthesizer Museum on KTVU

KTVU -

"Lance Hill, mastermind of The Vintage Synthesizer Museum in Emeryville, wants to preserve the history of synthesized music, as well as the instruments which made the sounds in the 70s and 80s."

You might remember the Bay Area Vintage Synthesizer Museum was recently featured on ABC7 News. It looks like they were just featured on Fox's KTVU. It's always great to see vintage synths getting exposure on mainstream TV.

Waldorf MicroQ and Blofeld custom patches

Published on Jan 29, 2015 millolab

"Headphones highly recommended.
Here you can find some custom patches i made on my two Waldorf synths. Just tell me in the comments which you prefer. The patch which gets more preferences will be programmed from scratch in a dedicated video tutorial. Those synths share the same engine, so actually, the patches can be programmed on both of them in the same way.

Blofeld patches start at 3:48"

Patrick Cowley Oberheim OBXa (8 Voice) with MIDI, Manual, Cassettes & Patch Guide

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

via this auction

"For auction is an OBXa 8 voice model, and has been completely updated and sounds great (new keyboard bushings, power supply update, MIDI retrofit, and overhaul of the control and voice boards). The pitch bend control section (mod box) is typical with 4 screws in it.

The original owners manuals are included, along with the OBXa patch book, two patch tapes (original factory patches are currently loaded on the OBXa) from the previous owners, and AC connector.

This OBXa was owned by Patrick Cowley, who was pretty much the West Coast Moroder, such were his contributions to disco and High NRG styles.

Thanks to Greg Montalbano for his work on the OBXa. The keyboard is pretty much level, and the action is even."
