Elhardt Synth Sounds Dissected

via Elhardt on AH. This is a follow up to the previous Elhardt posts.

"Since I am trying to reassemble my MOTM tracks of a train passing by to sync up to video of real trains, I might as well put up an MP3 where the separate tracks/sounds can be heard by themselves for those who are curious as to what makes up the final recording. It was all done on the MOTM modular synth plus about 5 different effects devices.

MOTM train dissected is here.

MOTM train with all sounds mixed together (has been posted before, but here for reference or new to those who haven't heard it).

Also, I was in the middle of a dialogue on another synth forum talking about the Alesis A6 when some people interrupted our conversation and also mailed to my inbox saying they didn't believe my A6 sounds (liquids and sitar) were synthesized, accused me of being a possible fraud, and they were going to spread the word that I fake synth demos unless I proved otherwise by posting the patches. I didn't have patches on my computer to send, nor did I really want to, so I recorded those sounds with me turning random knobs on the A6 to prove they're from the synth just to shut them up. I might as well get more use out of that mp3 before I pull it down in a few days since I've had some on this list make the same ridiculous accusations, so if you want to hear it, don't delay.

Here were the original demos they heard and questioned:

http://home.att.net/~synth6/A6_Pouring_Water.mp3
http://home.att.net/~synth6/A6_Boiling_Liquid.mp3

Here is me turning knobs and showing they're synthesized. Note that the sitar sounds kind of out of tune as I had just turned on my A6:

  1. Fascinating. Some exceptional programming there, thanks for sharing.

  2. Well, that's a novel way of trying to manipulate someone into posting patches you're not clever enough to recreate... (not Elhardt, his detractors)
