Published on Jan 16, 2015 Geert Bevin

"I was playing around with the LinnStrument and iPad synths to get ready for NAMM, and kept thinking of my dog Droopy who is alone in the hospital right now. Here's a little musical painting of those moments.

Played on the LinnStrument, more information about it here: http://www.rogerlinndesign.com/linnst...

Sound is generated by Audiobus on iPad Air, running SampleWiz going through Amazing Noises Reverb and Crystalline, recorded in AudioShare."

Moog Minitaur & Arturia Beatstep

Published on Jan 16, 2015 DreamsOfWires

"All sounds are from the Moog Minitaur, the repeating sequence is a single track of the Minitaur through an analog delay, and it's sounds are altered manually in real time. The bass, drones and fx were overdubbed. An Eventide Space pedal and an old version of Lexicon's Pantheon plugin were used for the reverb."

Note the higher pitch sequenced on the Minitaur.

Space Harrier Music - MAIN THEME

KORG S3 Rhythm Workstation

Published on Jan 16, 2015 Synth Universe

"This is probably KORG's best drum machine and though it has a heap of features that most drum machines don't have, it doesn't reach the heights or quality of a Roland TR-707 or Yamaha RX5. The claps are dreadful and on-board ram is almost non-existent for anything serious. As you can see from the demo songs, it is still a capable machine with careful programming. I think I like one kick. Nice effects though and almost worth the effort to learn this beast. Has 4 multi outs and 2 MIDI outs and a LOAD of other features. Love it or loathe it! Better than a Yamaha RX7 (nah!) or just piping the Alesis HR16 for build quality."
