Anatomy of a Drum Machine: Roland TR-909 Emulator JOMOX 09 (HQ Sound).


Published on Sep 27, 2013 massivebeatzz·58 videos

"Test, Review, Jam - SOUND CHECK. Here's something you may want to read while watching:

Built from 1997-2005 this now legendary drum box was first reviewed in June 1997 by SOS (Sound On Sound Magazine) asking: "So what do you get when you cross '80s retro with '90s know-how?"

They wrote:
XBase 09 is serious about emulating the Roland TR-909. Like the 909, it is an analog drum machine, and it sounds just like the 909, and more! It offers the same types of analog controls that the TR-808 and TR-909 did such as tuning, level, decay, snap, etc. However it provides more of these controls for more sounds than the originals ever did and has MIDI implementation and Patch memory making the XBase 09 a much more versatile machine than those originals.

Kick and snare are true analog, not emulation and not sampled. The Hihats, cymbal, ride, rimshot, claps and noise sounds are samples but are still quite tweakable. All your edited sounds can be stored into the 100 patches of memory. Use the built-in LFOs to modulate the Bass drum pitch, Snare Tune, Snare Snap, Snare Noise Tune, HiHat Tune or LFO 2.

The XBase 09's built-in sequencer is also more advanced yet faithful to the style of its mentors. Step or Real-Time programming just like it's done on the 909 and 808! However, on the XBase, any edits to the sounds will also be stored with the pattern or song! This really liven's up your beats and allows you freedom and control to do things not easily possible on the original beat boxes! There's also an extensive Shuffle mode. Of course the XBase 09 is also happy as a simple drum tone module, with all editable controls accessible using MIDI. The controls also send MIDI data when tweaked so you can record real-time edits into your external sequencer.

The XBase09′s editable controls include...
Bass drum -- TUNE (controls the pitch envelope amount), PITCH (VCO tuning parameter), DECAY (controls the decay time), HARMONICS (changes the harmonics of the VCO using a diode limiter), PULSE (square wave impulse), NOISE (clap-like sound), ATTACK (controls how much of the PULSE and NOISE mix is added), EQ (smoothes the sound with a filter).
Snare drum -- TUNE (controls the pitch of the two oscillators), NOISE TUNE (tunes the noise filter), XSNAPP (controls the proportion of noise), DECAY (noise decay time), DETUNE (detunes the two oscillators), NOISE TUNE (tunes the noise filter).
Sample section -- OH DECAY (controls the decay time of the analog volume envelope for sample assigned to OHH), CH DECAY (same but for CHH), HH BAL (controls the volume balance between the samples assigned to OH and CH), TUNE defines the playback speed (pitch) of the sample."

This is the first LOOPTROTTER post.

"SA2RATE is another original project introduced by LOOPTROTTER. It is a result of thorough research and time-consuming experiments which were to lead to coming in the analogue sound to the cutting-edge technology. It provides referring to the sound of vintage valve consoles and tape recorders.

SA2RATE works as an analogue soft limiter as well. It slightly aligns the signal and adds low-order harmonics in a smart way. The unit sets a solid and fat sound in the recording, proccessing and mixing.

Monster Compressor was a primary point of reference for the creation of SA2RATE because of its acknowledged saturation system based on vaccum tubes. We managed to achieve a distinct sound of vaccum tubes with the usage of semiconductor technology.

SA2RATE is user-friendly. All the channels are equipped with two knobs: DRIVE (saturation depth) and OUTPUT (output level). Saturation depth (the amount of added harmonics) is indicated by two LEDs at 4 and 8% THD."

R.A. Moog Model 10 Modular Synthesizer at Switched On

Published on Sep 27, 2013 Switched On·51 videos

"Check out more vintage synths:
http://www.switchedonaustin.com

Switched On recently restored a Moog Model 10 synthesizer. Before we sent it out the door we wanted to get a little bit of documentation to share.

It is very clear upon hearing the timbral quality of this system that everything described about the original Moog sound and the legendary 904a low-pass filter is very true. One especially nice module that is included in this system in the Fixed Filter Bank. You can consider this to operate like an EQ but with resonance! By driving up isolated harmonic bands pre-lowpass filter it adds a very pleasant sounding distortion that is unlike anything.
You can hear it demonstrated in the first patch in this video.

Enjoy this droney raga and a few other autonomous sound effect patches from a machine that changed the world.

Friday Fry with ReBirth

Published on Sep 27, 2013 Discchord·67 videos

iTunes: ReBirth for iPad - Propellerhead Software AB

"Little Acid jam with ReBirth as part of the iOSMusic.org Acid House challenge. http://iosmusic.org/forum/drop-some-a...

Like my last Friday Fry Session, I kept myself to just 1 hour to develop some patterns and then went at it. This is not a limitation of the challenge, just a personal motivator to keep me from over-thinking things.

This video also serves a couple of other purposes:
1) I'm trying to get my husband to play with ReBirth in Duo Mode with me, and thought a video would make it seem more manageable and fun. His initial reaction was, "Woah that is a lot of buttons." By the end of the video I got a tentative, "Alright, I guess we could try..." Success!

2) A lot of people complain about ReBirth's controls being too small. I get that on the iPhone version, but on the iPad it is fine; just move your fingers out of the way. Since Display Recorder shows where my fingers are, I hope this video shows how I use the knobs by moving my fingers to the sides. This app is pretty awesome for acid so it is worth a second look. I love the distortion effect on the lead!"
