Teenage OP-1 Adventures: Accidental Radio Sample

Published on Mar 12, 2017 Jacques Mongrel

"Waiting for laundry to finish. I make a track. I accidentally sample a very short sample from the radio. Instead of discarding it I make whole musical idea around it, using the weaknesses of the Teenage Engineering OP-1 sampler as strengths and having fun in the process."

VINTAGE MOOG MINIMOOG Analog Synthesizer 1979 | HD DEMO

Published on Mar 12, 2017 AnalogAudio1

"(c) 2017 by AnalogAudio1

I played the Minimoog D with reverb effects from a Lexicon MPX-500 and delay effects from a Korg SDD-3000.

The Minimoog D is a real classic. It is a monophonic synthesizer with a fat analog sound from USA. It has 3 oscillators, a 24dB Moog lowpass filter, 2 envelopes, noise generator. The third oscillator can be used as LFO with a wide frequency range. The Minimoog D is heard on many, many recordings."

Atomic Shadow's Command Center

I just started watching Lost again. An interesting side note is that JJ Abrams is into synths. It's too bad he didn't add any synth related easter eggs in the show.

DreamsOfWires - 'Setsuko' (AJH Synth Mini Mod & Roland SH-1)

Published on Mar 12, 2017 DreamsOfWires

"Recorded live, no overdubs or post-production. I've been watching a few lesser-known films of Setsuko Hara just recently, one of my favourite actresses, so I thought I'd make something very loosely inspired by her.

Initial sound is the SH-1, all subsequent sounds are from the Mini Mod.

Sequenced using Genome on an iPad, selecting patterns in real-time, into an Expert Sleepers FH-1 to control the SH-1 and 3 Mini Mod VCO's, each on independent midi channels in order to play multiple notes simultaneously.
Recorded into two channels using AUM on the iPad via an iConnectivity AUDIO4+ (which also sends MIDI to the FH-1) with Virsyn's AudioReverb as an insert effect.

The video editing isn't as good as I'd have liked, but my ancient PC makes it a laborious and sloppy task.
Please don't ask me to explain the recording in any more detail than this, thank you.

Film scenes from 'Priest of Darkness' (河内山宗俊, 1936) and 'Temptation' (誘惑, 1948)."

Happy Nerding HN VCF demo

Published on Mar 12, 2017 Happy Nerding

"First part shows the simplest example of using note velocity CV to add variation to a static note sequence.
Second part shows difference in 'Drive' for 'LP' and 'LP!' outputs.

Third part shows how HN VCF can be used to transform mono sound to pseudo stereo. To do this the user should send 'LP' out to one channels and 'LP!' to another. With some “Drive” added to the sound it starts to be spread over stereo field."

via Happy Nerding

"HN VCF is a state variable filter having 12 db Low Pass, 12 dB High Pass, 6 dB Band Pass plus 18 db Low Pass marked as “LP!”, because it has extra drive. All three parameters: 'Freq', 'Resonance' and 'Drive' have dual knobs with outer knobs controlling bipolar CV amount. These affected CVs are then shown by the relative green/blue leds.

The possibility to have CV over “Resonance” and “Drives” makes it a very capable 6 HP filter.

Happy Nerding TriTone demo

Published on Mar 12, 2017 Happy Nerding

"TriTone shown as EQ, filter and saturator."

via Happy Nerding

"TriTone is a three section EQ plus saturator. Inner knobs control frequency and outer knobs control +- gain. All these sections Hi Shelf, Band Pass and Low Shelf are having + 20 db of gain and 30 db of reduction. Each section can work independently or they can be serially connected by the switches. Middle input in each section accepts CV for its frequency, so all three sections can be individually FMed by the external CVs.

If the inputs are fed with the modular level signals (+- 5V), then there is little room for “plus” EQ gains before saturation starts. In this case the input level should be attenuated first, if saturation is not desired and much “plus” gain is needed. Otherwise saturation drastically enriches the tone and the module works like very flexible overdrive FX.

When the switches are set to upper positions, then all three sections work independently. With the maximum gain reduction (CCW position) of the upper section (Hi Shelf) it becomes a useful kind of Low Pass filter. On the contrary – maximum gain reductions of the lower section (Low Shelf) makes it a High Pass filter.

Please note the internal routing done by the switches: the output of the uppers section is added to the input of the subsequent lower section. If nothing is connection to this lower sections’ input, then only the upper section’s output is processed. This makes it a 3 band EQ with the switches set to lower position. Having separated inputs opens up more possibilities over ordinary EQs."

Juno 6/Bigsky/Timeline - Should I?

Published on Mar 12, 2017 Jae Ryan

"I've posted my Juno6 for sale and while waiting for a buyer decided I should spend some time with it and if see if I should part with it! Running the arp through my Strymon pedals I found some moments of magic, though I'm still not sure I've fallen back in love. I always wish it was a little more complex, though it always sounds good. The biggest thing stopping me is that I don't own any other synth that can to delayed vibrato/LFO's and it's one of my favourite ways to make lead sounds. Sooooo, should I?"

While 30+ years old, this is still a valuable studio and fun live tool. Very fat, warm and easily edited, it is fun to play and sounds fantastic!"

ARP Odyssey MK-I 2800

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

via this auction

"As you can see I the pics, this vintage, c 1970s very first version mk-1 2800 Arp odyssey is in excellent, I hesitate to say mint condition. This is a GENUINE, ORIGINAL, VINTAGE synth, NOT a korg made Chinese reissue. It has just been completely serviced and calibrated, and is in 100% perfect working order. Every key, function, knob, slider and switch operates as designed, and they synth sounds...amazing. All of the original slider caps are also present and accounted for. This is easily the cleanest I've ever seen. Awesome.

This synthesizer makes all of the beeps, boops, squishy leads, booming basses, and wacky modulation noises you want. You can also achieve wild cross-modulation between the oscillators by switching them into unison mode and using the vco2 pitch to pit them against each other. She also has ring mod, s&h, pink/white noise and audio in for the rad (big time self oscillating!) filter. Later models tended to have a tamer sounding filter, and this one is anything but! You'll notice it is an OG model 2800 synth, not a later 2810 or 2813. The synth is in terrific cosmetic condition, with only minor wear."

MS20 / JX-3P / MFB522 / Sunday jam

Published on Mar 12, 2017 se7ense7

"Analog music.

The DCO's on the JX-3P are only digitally clocked (digitally controlled oscillator). This provided tuning stabily in an analog oscillator. The MS20 tends to drift, because it has VCO's. These are clocked by voltage, and that's quite unstable."

BURG - the forest where we died (feat. KORG monologue)

Published on Mar 12, 2017 ollilaboratories

"If you like my stuff, please support me on http://music.ollilab.com/

Yesterday I went o a big shopping spree.. i finally got my hands on the eventide space pedal AND the KORG monologue.

This being one of the first proper tracks i have put together in 2017 it took some time to get it right, spent almost a full two days jamming and setting things up. When i recorded it, it all went down in just one go... The monologue plays a cenral role in the track, and helps build the tone and beat throughout the entire track, really a lovely synth.

The tune is very dark, it is a reflection on life and death.. and an answer to where we will end up when we pass away.

Gear used: KORG monologue, ms-20, SQ-1, volca, bass, keys and fm, Roland Aira System-1, TR-8, elektron analog four, circuit (just sequencer), makenoise 0-coast, microbrute, MG-1, dreadbox erebus, NLA1, beatstep pro, reface CP

FX used: eventide space, strymon timeline, bluesky, el capistan, mooer reecho, skyverb, catalinbread CSIDMAN, Kaoss PAD, ms-70 CDR, red panda particle."

New OSCar and ARP 2600 on Behringer's Radar

This one spotted by Soviet Space Child:

"Aside from the Oscar synth, I can confirm that the 2600 is high on our priority list as it is a truly remarkable synth; I always wanted one for myself:-)

We are currently trying to acquire an original unit for benchmark purposes.

We hope we will be able to show you a first design draft within the next few weeks, while we're studying the circuit diagrams to provide you with an estimated retail price.

Once ready we will reach out to you to see if there is enough interest.

Uli"

That OSCar logo in this previous post on possible new Oberheim clones from Behringer, now makes more sense.
