Rainbotic Fury (Novation Circuit)


Published on Oct 14, 2015 HardtekStudios

"Download the audio track for FREE here-https://soundcloud.com/hardtek-studio...
My 1st song with the very unique Novation Circuit groovebox. The workflow is confusing at first, but it soon makes perfect sense. Sounds huge even before a little bit of Logic Pro compression & EQ."

FL Studio Mobile IAA Animoog MIDI Sequence


Published on Oct 14, 2015 ipadloops

"App Attack Ep 003 - Lots of viewers are asking if I would use an iPad when composing for TV shows. I have songs in several TV shows and I do use the iPad from time to time to get ideas started. My favorite app for sequencing midi sequences is FL Studio Mobile. I just really like the piano roll and editing features. They just make sense to me. I also like using IAA (Inter App Audio) when using FL Studio Mobile. IAA is Apple's proprietary method of routing apps internally. I slammed this little jam down in about 20 minutes. I was inspired by a preset in Animoog. It was used subtly. Other sounds were from the FL Studio Mobile synth.

Sequential Circuits Poly Sequencer 1005 for Prophet 5 with Original Demo Sequences Tape Cassette

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

SN 0125 via this auction

Here's something you don't see every day. The original cassette tape for the SCI Poly Sequencer 1005. The listing is for both the unit and the tape, but the tape is what struck my eye. Anyone that collected rare tapes and/or record albums knows the feeling when you see something like this. Doing a quick search for Poly Sequencer 1005 on the site, this appears to be the first time it has ever been featured here.  Pretty cool when you think about it.  A little rare gem from synthesizer history.  I'll take a working synth first any day of the week of course, but it sure is cool to look at realizing not only what it is, but where it came from.  Check out the birds on the edges!   I'm curious if Wine Country Productions ever reissued these.

Octave Plateau Voyetra 8 Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer SN 2801A with Original Rev 4 Cheat Book

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

I don't think I've ever seen or featured the cheat book on the site before.  Like a little Voyetra Eight checkbook!

Details from the listing: "This is a Rev 4 and was completely restored 1yr ago by Peter Lanzilotta at Double Take Studios in NYC. Power supply, voice, filter and mixer cards all rebuilt. Caps replaced, every solder trace examined and touched up where needed, pots replaced, face plate rebuilt, etc, etc. It was disassembled, cleaned, painstakingly repaired, reassembled and fully calibrated to the tune of a $2000 restoration process.

It just returned from another trip to NYC for a "pre sale" tune up and calibration where it was given a clean bill of health. This is as "maintenance free" as you'll likely find this synth due to the extensive restoration and service it has received.

It's functionally in excellent condition and sounds amazing. Cosmetically it has a few scratches and dings in the paint but all knobs and buttons are accounted for and work as intended with an occasional button stick that is pretty much unavoidable with this synth due to the way the face plate is designed.

8x SSM2044 filters! Ridiculous. This synthesizer is a monster. It's the best sounding poly analog I've ever heard.

Includes original (tattered but functional) box, original user manual, Rev 4 addendum "cheat book" and a pair of XLR->midi I/O cables."

Erebus Dreadbox and others Night Jam 2

"Playing and tweaking the Erebus Dreadbox triggered by the Roland JD-Xi. Master sync from is from the Roland TR-8 sending clock to the Elektron Octatrack to the JD-Xi then notes sequenced from the JD-Xi are sent to the Erebus. This is more of a practice Jam just to get a feel for the Erebus since it is one of the newest members of my setup.

Same Jam as previous video but recording again with higher quality audio. Performed a little different. This is just a Jam feeling things out."

Dave Smith Instruments Retires their First Synth, the Evolver, the Mopho Series, and the Tetra


It's hard to believe it, but Dave Smith is retiring the Evolver, his first new hardware synth under the DSI brand, along with the Mopho series and the Tetra. The discontinuation of the Evolver marks the end of an era. I'm actually the proud owner of Evolver SN #132! I remember the excitement when Dave Smith re-entered the hardware synthesizer scene with the Evolver. It offered four oscillators, two digital with waveforms from the classic Sequential Circuits Prophet-VS, two analog, Curtis analog filters, effects, and four sequencers that could drive each oscillator separately as well as a multitude of destinations. It was, and still is, an incredibly powerful synthesizer. I snatched mine when it was first released.

via Dave Smith Instruments:

"We’re retiring some of our much-loved but mature products — namely, Mopho, Mopho Keyboard, Mopho Keyboard SE, Tetra, and Evolver. While each of these instruments is something of a classic in its own right, and each has found its place in countless studio recordings and stage performances, a time comes when every good synth deserves its place in the great electronic retirement community in the sky.

If you ever wanted to add any of these highly-regarded instruments to your arsenal, get them now before they’re gone. Find a DSI dealer here or contact sales@davesmithinstruments.com."

As always be sure to check with the dealers on the right!

Smomid Universe. A Network of Instruments


Published on Oct 14, 2015 nicnut210

"The Smomid Universe is a network of several midi devices that are primarily used as musical instruments. All instruments in this family utilize the same technology and mostly the same sensors, but are scaled for different applications, sizes and methods of interfacing.

The Smomid is a guitar-like interface, the Pyramidi is a triangular box-like interface and the Smoment is a table top guitar type interface.

Nord Sample Editor - How to easily create your own samples


Published on Oct 14, 2015 NordKeyboards

Thought this was pretty cool. Instead of having to record each octave separately, you can record them all at once. Curious what happens to the scaling if you record random tones. I'm guessing it just scales each tone one octave and then switches over to the next tone.
