Pluto Flyby space ambient jam with Microbrute and Korg Volca Keys & Bass


Published on Jul 28, 2015 Helium Road

"Okay, I don't know if anyone's been wondering, but I've been away for a while busy with other stuff but I got my synth gear plugged back in finally. I've been keenly watching all the coverage of the New Horizons spacecraft and its flyby of Pluto the last few weeks, so it was on my mind when I say down to jam this out last night. Got to test out my new Polara reverb pedal, too.

I apologize if the sound and video aren't perfectly synced up; that's really the hardest thing about doing these things. If I re-do this piece I will try to make a real video.

In case you're wondering: Yes. This is what it looks like inside Helium Road's house all the time, colored lights, plasma sphere, and assorted mad scientist devices.

Equipment used:
Arturia Microbrute analog synth
Korg Volca Keys analog synth
Korg Volca Bass analog synth
EHX Clockworks timing unit
EHX Superego Synth Engine pedal
Arion Stereo Chorus pedal
TC Electronics Flashback stereo delay pedal
DigitechPolara stereo reverb pedal
Rolls 4-channel passive mixer
Korg Sound-on-Sound recorder"

Soft cover version of the book. There appears to have been two hard cover versions as well. One posted here with a solid black cover with silver print and one posted here with the same cover in this current listing.  See those two posts for details on the book and some pics of the inside including sections you can read on the KORG PS-3200, Orchestra-85, SCI Prophet-5, Prophet-10, Pro-One & Polyphonic Sequencer, Moog Rogue & Prodigy, Korg Trident, and Realistic Concertmate-MG1. It looks like the inside pics were used for the current listing which is fine imo as the book is listed in very good condition: "A great in-depth introduction to modular analog synthesizers, drum machines, vocoders, and the like, with an entire chapter devoted to vintage equipment. Apart from a little cover wear, the book is in very good condition. Softcover, 376 pages. Copyright 1982. This item ships WORLDWIDE."

Yamaha REFACE DX VS DX7


Published on Jul 22, 2015 muzykujkropkacom

Note the reface DX is a 4 Op FM synth like the Yamaha DX-100 and TX-817 while the DX7 is a more powerful 6 Op FM synth. The FS1R rack steps it up to 8 Op and adds Formant synthesis. If you are not familiar with operators, think of them as oscillators that can be arrange in different patterns of feedback to each other for frequency modulation, the FM in FM synthesis. The different patterns are referred to as algorithms in Yamaha speak. For a general history and explanation of FM start with this article on Wikipedia.

4ms Spectral Multiband Resonator Beat Sync Jam


Published on Jul 28, 2015 4mspedals

"Here we're using just an iPod and mp3 file to control the entire modular system. The drums sounds are all from modules being triggered by the Spectral, and the bassline is part of the mp3 file.

A cable sends audio directly to the SMR from the iPod, where it's split into bands. Triggers are derived from each individual audio frequency band, which are then sent to drum modules to create an entire set based around the structure of one audio file!

You can drastically and dynamically remix tracks this way. Using as much or as little of the original sound as desired, you can cut and filter precise sections of the sound, all the while using the CV equivalent of each band to control and beat sync your modular system!"

"Jupiter Clones casing is now done and first boards are fitted in.
In this video three voices from total of four are in use. I still need to build last two oscillator cards to get 4 voice polyphony. Filter and VCA for the last two cards is ready but needs tuning.

DR-202 is sequencing midi notes to Midi to CV converter which controls voices polyphonicly. Additional 808 beats and bassline are audioloops that I added in video editor."

4. Jupiter 8 VCO clone
"Short video from my latest DIY build.
This video shows two DIY JP VCO voice cards build on veroboard. Each containing one VCO with saw, square and pulse witdh modulation. Together these two vco cards make one voice. SH101 sends CV to voice cards and GATE trigger to DIY VCADSR circuit.

These is a small error on the info text in the video. Originals NF510 fet is replaced with 2N3819, not with 2N3918 as mentioned in the video."

"DIY SYNTH DEMO

Dirty bassline made with two VCO's both using square wave.
Just wanted to show how this synth sounds with detuning and some PWM tweaking.
I use VCO1's scale switch on couple times to change the octave scale, most of the time VCO1 plays one octave lower than VCO2, as a "sub" oscillator.

Signal path :

VCO1 and VCO2 goes to VCO mixer, there to Moog filter, and there to VCA. Envelope generator 1 controls VCA with sequence triggers from SH101.

This time I managed to get video quality better but sound is still pretty raw :/"

"Nice Original Retro Synth.

In overall good condition.

The keys are fine, with no dead ones, or any problems that I can find.

The pots are working and all seem to do what they should, with the exception of 2 pots.

These are the noise pot, it works but will need looking at as it is very stiff, and the wave form pot, which again is stiff but works.

Other than that it is in good condition for an older synth."

Rear Window 3


Published on Jul 28, 2015 John L Rice

"I did two videos during the Fall season of 2014 titled "Rear Window" and "Rear Window 2". This video is very similar to the second one where I routed the output of the last effect pedal in the chain into a pair of mixer inputs instead of the mixer's effects return input to allow generating (mostly) controlled feedback.

So all sounds you are hearing in the first part of this video were created by manipulation of feedback resonance/howl in the mixer and the effects pedals and was done as you see it here, a real-time experimentation (with some edits to chop out the less interesting sections).

This video also contains a 'bonus' part two. I had forgotten to press record on the Marantz PMD-661 flash recorder I use to capture audio coming directly out of the mixer and when I was done with this take I was to tired and annoyed to try again. During editing though I listened to it and even though the video camera audio quality wasn't very good, I still kind of liked it. Not really good enough to be a video of it's own but maybe interesting enough to be a bonus track? ;-)

Equipment list in order of connection:
Mackie 802-VLZ3 mixer effects loop output
TC Electronic Hall Of Fame Mini reverb pedal
MXR/Dunlop Octave Fuzz pedal
Electro-Harmonix Ravish Sitar pedal
TC Electronic Flashback delay pedal
TC Electronic Hall Of Fame reverb pedal
Mackie 802-VLZ3 mixer stereo channel input

Part two adds:
Novation Ultranova keyboard synth (lead/melody noodles)
Korg microStation keyboard synth (ambient rhythm and piano notes)"

Trumpet thru Strymon Big Sky, Moog mf-101 Low pass filter, Moog mf-102 Ring modulator

"A while ago I was on the lookout for videos demonstrating Strymon Big Sky Reverberator, Moogerfooger mf 101 Low pass Filter & Moogerfooger mf-102 Ring modulator and it was kind of like falling into a bottomless black hole with zillions of clips with nerdy guitar players... :-) If the effect sounds great on guitar there is no guarantee it will sound likewise on a trumpet.. I couldn´t really find any horn players using the effects I was interested in so I thought I´d post this clip if anybody out there is like me and always on the prowl for new sounds.."

Virsyn Releases Tap Delay for iOS


Published on Jul 28, 2015 virsyn

"Tap Delay combines the warm sound of vintage tape echo machines with a modern, step sequencer-like tapped delay engine which continues the tradition of the tape echo machines into the 21st century."


iTunes: Tap Delay - VirSyn


Back in the “old days”, producers and engineers created delay and echo effects using tape machines. Tap Delay combines the warm sound of vintage tape echo machines with a modern, step sequencer-like tapped delay engine which continues the tradition of the tape echo machines into the 21st century.

#### Intro offer 50% off #####

The Tape simulation includes all relevant aspects for the recreation of a faithful analog tape sound:

• Compression and Saturation
• Tape hiss
• Tape head bias
• Wow and Flutter (Tape speed instability)
• Smooth speed / delay time changes

Three feedback filters with hipass/lowpass and bandpass characteristic simplify the creation of authentic dub echo effects.

The built-in Limiter allows for endless feedback sounds.

Use live input from any source - Microphone, Guitar, Audiobus and Inter App Audio - or take a song from your iTunes library for processing.

Features:

• Multi-tap delay machine
• 24 taps for rhythmic delay effects
• Tape simulation ( Saturation, Noise, Flutter )
• Alias free tape saturation through oversampling.
• MIDI controllable including Tempo sync
• Delay loop equalizer for dub effect.
• Glitch free simulation of variable tape speeds.
• Spatial echo rotation effect.
• Audiobus 2 compatible with state saving
• IAA compatible ( Auria, Cubasis, Garageband ).
• Integrated iTunes player."

"These where designed and build by Jessica Rylan and are no longer in manufacture.
I am not a capitalist or a dealer, I just want these beauties to go to the right home.
I have loved using these and this is the second set I have owned, the first pair I stupidly sold, regretted it and tried to buy again, unfortunately they had stopped making them and it took me about a year and a half to track down another complete set.

The Little Boy Blue I bought from Allesandro Cortini (NIN), it has a few of the knob caps missing, 100% working, a few minor scratches to the paint underneath.

Jealous Heart I bought from a chap in Sweden, 100% working, a few little scratches underneath, the odd tiny paint chip.

These are designed to be used, last forever and built like a very well made thing. A lot of thought has gone into these, Rylan worked for Don Buchla and wanted to build something with as much sonic capability as a full blown modular, but could be slung in a bag for a gig.

Both units can process external audio from guitar, microphone, synth, drum machine or whatever else. They are sold as a pair (you will want both) and they work extremely well together, producing an extreme range of sound ideal for design, performance and sampling.

The price is fixed, I have them for sale elsewhere so the auction may end early and my price is very reasonable, the first set cost me loads more . Included is a set of 6 stackable pomona cables, I use a lot of banana gear and it is easy to make them up, you don’t need the expense of using pomona, you can get some really good stackable’s elsewhere you don’t have to solder.
