via Laurentide Synthwerks

"For the most part, the Prodigy is extremely simplistic in design. It doesn't have the ability to adjust or modulate pulse-width. The LFO only has 2 shapes and 2 destinations (pitch & cutoff). The envelopes don't have a dedicated release. It doesn't have noise or S&H. Then, to top it off, I have an early model, so it doesn't have any CV IN/OUT. I could mod it, but I'm just not into drilling holes into this thing. But, despite all of it's shortcomings, it is, without a doubt, one of the best mono synth's I have ever owned. The filter is amazing and the VCO's sound incredible. I've had a lot of mono synths come and go, but this one is a mainstay for sure."

"An Bord des CS-15 sind zwei VCOs, zwei Multimode-VCFs, zwei VCAs, zwei Hüllkurvengeneratoren und ein LFO.
Die beiden VCOs bieten jeweils Dreiecks- und Sägezahnwelle in sechs Fusslagen, sowie eine in Pulsbreite regelbare (50% – 90%) und durch den LFO modulierbare Rechteckwelle. Dazu gehören auch zwei Stimmpotis, die VCO 1 um +/- 75 cents und VCO 2 um +850/ -750 cents verstimmen können, was es ermöglicht, fixe Intervalle auf der Tastatur zu spielen."

Googlish:
"On board the CS-15, two VCOs, two multimode VCFs, two VCAs, two envelope generators and an LFO.
The two VCOs offer each triangle and sawtooth wave in six foot pads, as well as a variable in pulse width (50% - 90%) and modulated by the LFO square wave. This includes two Stimmpotis, the VCO 1 to +/- 75 cents and VCO 2 to 850 + / -750 cents can detune, which makes it possible to play fixed intervals on the keyboard. "

VGM #13 - Crystal Snail (Mega Man X2)

TWITTER: http://twitter.com/motivemakesaman

There are a lot of great Mega Man tracks, and originally my plan was to do a classic Mega Man song as my second track in the Mega Man universe. And then I watched a friend play Crystal Snails level.

I got a recommendation to do this song a while back, listened to it, and went , "That was weird. No thank you." But, when my friend was playing it, I started to pay attention to the songs time, and fell in love with it.

The way it dances from 13/8 to 6/8 to a weird 6/8+2/8 to finally finding 4/4 only to lose it to 13/8 again made me very happy. I extended the 13/8 parts as much as possible because I think they are just the coolest, slowed it down a bit to give it some groove, and then tried to give it as much atmosphere with as few tracks as possible. I hope you enjoy!

Special thanks to Khalil Moutrie, my creative consultant, for all of your help with these VGMS, as well as your constant stream of inspiration through playing all of these awesome games."

Really hard to find one in excellent condition, with the Original TB-303 cover and the original Roland Power Supply. Here is your chance to own the original techno machine that started acid house! Own a piece of history!!! The TB-303 is the greatest single oscillator monosynth of all time, bar none. This is a big time limited synth. Unit was purchased from a certified Roland dealer in Japan. Inspection was done prior to that with no errors at all. If you would like to take it in to a certified Roland service whether be in LA or NY or anywhere you can find a certified Roland dealer/service - it will cost you around $75 to have it inspected. Fully functional buttons No cosmetic issue at all The battery power works perfect All buttons are fully functional - no loose buttons at all Comes with the Original Roland Power Supply, which is very rare to find nowadays."

"CV, Gate and VCF mod has been added - but non-destructively! Existing 'never' used sockets have been re-wired - that means no new holes have been drill thus not devaluing the unit. Mod can therefore be reversed if need be. These sockets allow you to use a MIDI-CV converter (not included) to play the 202 from a MIDI sequencer/DAW VCF cut-off can then also be controlled via MIDI (using say Velocity) - I recommend a Kenton Pro-Solo"

"We hooked some living neurons up to a nonlinearcircuits modular. the neuronal noise was amplified & fed thru filters, also used to CV a VCO. The action potentials (triggers) were used to drive the sequencers. We used a pulse divider to provide a feedback signal to the neurons and they seemed to appreciate this a lot :) Thanks to Nathan for the footage."

Modular Jam #12 - Braids Chord Mode


Published on Aug 6, 2014 DivKidMusic

"Here's the latest synth jam in the typical style of 'this is pretty cool, I'll film' style. Nothing pre planned or composed just a patch I ended up while playing around then recorded.

No camera to hand so ended up filming it on my phone (hence the vertical video and blurred out copies to fill the screen). Audio was still line in from the modular set up.

Braids is the star of the show here with the /| /| x 3 mode which is 3 saw waves with individual tuning. A sequence is running for the main pattern with an additional sequence running to move one of the saw waves independently giving various chords rather than one chord with each voice moving together.

Drums were synthesised in with a variety of oscillators and filters with VCA and envelopes keeping those in check."

"Percussion Work 4" - Delptronics LDB 1e & 1x


Published on Aug 5, 2014 Strange UFO Music

"Here is how the Delptronics Little Drummer Boy modules sound with the Doepfer A101-2 (in VCA mode) and some different effect colors changed in places. My impression of the delptronics is it is a great value and space saving, ideal for smaller modular setups like mine. With both the main module (an 8 piece drum kit!) and the expansion together, only take up 10hp. My ideal enhancement would be to add a 4hp snare drum module.
This piece is reminiscent of groove etudes I've played (when I played drums). My drumming has now transitioned from using drumsticks and pedals to using switches and a clock divider. As in this piece, I used a very special switch from Trouby Modular (from Germany) called Switch 8. This allows for lightening fast switching in any combinations. In this work, the bass and snare play a polyrythmic ostinato, while the hihat plays a 'melodic solo' with accents playing other polyrhythmic ratios. Of course, the clock divider is the 4ms Rotating Clock Divider. The toggles were set in place and not changed in this piece. The effects were from the Zoom HD8 multitrack. Actual patching shown. (did not use dual trigger delay even though that's pictured patched).

Hope you enjoy, thanks for watching/listening!"
