AKAI TIMBREWOLF BEWARE OF THE BITE ANALOG SYNTHESIZER DEMO BY RIK MARSTON


Published on Oct 23, 2017 SynthgodXXX

"AKAI TIMBREWOLF 'BEWARE OF THE BITE'
ANALOG SYNTHESIZER DEMO BY RIK MARSTON
**Watch in HD** **Lite Clipping!! Watch those Subs!**

Ahh the Akai Timbrewolf. Nice BASIC synthesizer.
Very easy to use, sounds clean, built right. Solid keys.
Can detune easily. Can be a bit to calibrate. HOWL
(drive or overdrive) is really intense if not ready for it.
Sorry about the clipping, the Timbrewolf BITES so you
have to learn to TAME IT, if you choose too!!! LOL!
BEST feature is the UNISON MODE. NICE!!!
Mono mode is nice, POLY is GREAT with DECAY :)
Good for a basic synth if you need something
that just produces solid analog tone & BITE.
I ran the Akai Timbrewolf thru my trusty
ART Multiverb LT on the L1 setting @ 50%.
Then recorded in stereo into Ableton LIVE.

Thank you for watching!"

A currently underrated synth for whatever reason. The Prophecy supported both virtual analog and physical modeling. Some claim the Z1 is a polyphonic Prophecy, however they are slightly different. The parameters do not line up 100%.

CustomSynth Spotting on The Streets -- The Edge of a Cliff


Published on Apr 7, 2009 thebeats

"Mike's Blog: http://mikeskinner.so The D.O.T.: http://the-dot.net"

via @customsynth:

"this meant a lot to me glad to have painted a couple of things The Streets -- The Edge of a Cliff"

Custom synths come towards the end.

Some great lyrics to think about as well:

"I lay right there once at the edge of the rock
I was ready to jump, I was ever so lost
But this gentleman stopped and said something I never forgot
For billions of years since the outset of time
Every single one of your ancestors has survived
Every single person on your mum and dad's side
Successfully looked after and passed on to you life
What are the chances of that, like?
It comes to me once in a while
And everywhere I tell folk it gets the best smile"

Dave Smith Instruments In the Spotlight with the Mopho X4 and Fabian Almazan


You'll find the full interview at Dave Smith Instruments here.

"Recently nominated for a Grammy for his work on Terence Blanchard’s Breathless, pianist and composer Fabian Almazan found his musical roots as a child in his homeland of Havana where he first became involved in the classical piano tradition. When his parents could not afford to pay for private piano lessons and having migrated to Miami, Florida, pianist Conchita Betancourt was gracious enough to impart free lessons. Thanks to Mrs. Betancourt’s exceeding generosity, Fabian was able to audition for the New World School of the Arts High School in Miami where he studied from 1998 to 2002. In 2002 Fabian was selected for the piano chair in the National 2002 Grammy High School Jazz Combo. The following year, Almazan attended the newly up and running Brubeck Institute fellowship program based in northern California where he studied with Mark Levine and performed with Dave Brubeck and Christian McBride. In 2003, Fabian moved to New York City to study with Kenny Barron at the Manhattan School of Music..."

Malekko Heavy Industry - Gate Delay


Published on Oct 23, 2017 DivKidVideo

"Here's the fantastic Gate Delay from the lovely people at Malekko Heavy Industry. This is a totally awesome and exciting module that I imagine many looked at and thought it wasn't for them as a more utilitarian piece of kit. But it can be incredibly musical. With options for input normalising or normalising of outputs to create rhythmic musical canon effects with your gates and options for tying gate delay times to the clock or going unquantized it really is ace and incredibly fast to get things moving in interesting ways. It's a lovely pairing for the Varigate and/or Voltage Block but of course works entirely independent as seen here.

00:26 Overview / features
- all modes
- timing settings
- ins and outs
- musical canons
- quantised / unquantised delays

02:50 Patch 1 "splitting melodies"
- simple sequences turned "pseudo two voice"
- unquantised gate delays
- CV inputs (knobs become attenuators)

05:49 Patch 2 "customs flams / drum placement"
- mode 2 normalising inputs
- time mode 2 "unquantised but clocked to 1 bar in length"
- placing beats anywhere in the bar
- customs flams between percussion
- bursts from the mix output

10:17 Patch 3 "cascading chord tones"
- mode 3 cascading outs to ins
- musical "canon" in the rhythm
- quantised delay placement (time mode 3)
- breaking the normalising"

3 Modules #28: Maths, Clouds, Ripples


Published on Oct 23, 2017 Comparative Irrelevance

"Turn off the lights and get ready for some sedate dark ambient tones! I love this slow, pulsating movement, and the warm, heavy thud of Ripples' sine sub. I also like the effect of modulating Clouds' dry/wet blend here: it serves a dual purpose as a VCA for the bass notes and a sort of side-chain compression for the granular sounds.

Note: this recording contains a very wide range of frequencies, from very low bass to piercingly high treble. I recommend using good headphones or full-range speakers to hear it all.

Patch notes:
I'm using Ripples as an oscillator (with some occasional self-FM for richer harmonics) and feeding little snippets of sound into Clouds' buffer, which stays frozen most of the time here. I then tune Ripples to a nice bass frequency and leave the rest up to the modulation that's controlling Clouds.

Maths channel 4 (slow, looping envelope) is controlling Clouds' position, density and blend, which is the dry/wet mix in this case. This is set up so that the wet mix will quickly drop, letting Ripples' bass tone through, and then slowly drift back up to 100% wet while the density gets sparser (moving from counter clockwise towards noon setting) and the position moves forward through the frozen buffer.

Maths channel 1 (quicker looping envelope) is modulating Clouds' texture and size parameter, to create some interesting movements and sonic artefacts.

Occasionally I'll manually change Clouds' pitch setting for variation. I also load different buffers throughout the recording – both by unfreezing and recording new sound from Ripples, and by loading stored buffers from Clouds' memory. Actually, one of those recorded buffers contained something I'd stored forever ago, and I have a feeling it's sampled from Rings, but it sounded so pleasant I couldn't resist using it anyway. The other buffers contain only sounds from Ripples, that I recorded while setting up the patch.

Thanks for watching!"

VCV Rack Open-source virtual Eurorack DAW - MVM #92


Published on Oct 23, 2017 Midiverse - TV

"What's up everyone? Welcome to Midiverse - TV. Today we're going to be checking out a new open source virtual Eurorack DAW called VCV Rack.

In the first audio example we have three different synthesizer voices, each on an independent MIDI channel. All the synth sounds are coming from VCV Rack, and the drum samples are coming from the MPC1000.

On the second half of the video, we'll experiment with several sequencers all sync'd up together. In this example all the audio is coming from VCV Rack.

::vtol:: ivy - 240 Step Sequencer


::vtol:: ivy from ::vtol:: on Vimeo.

The latest creation from ::vtol::.


"Interactive sound installation. Sequencer-synthesizer with 240 steps, that allows to create rhythmic compositions. Object has complex control system with possibility to add or delete "voices", change tempo of whole sequence or individually for each voice, to change number and direction of steps.

The project is created specially for Open Codes exhibition in ZKM center, dedicated to codes and programming in art. On one side, Ivy is a representation of an archaic method of electronic music programming for analog synthesizers. On the other side - gigantic scale and obsessive multiplication of simple primitive elements turns this project into an art installation, that is referring to the topic of graphic and physical organization of parameters in electronic music.

Synth Jam with Moog Sub 37, Moog Mother 32, Juno-106 and Native Instruments Una Corda


Published on Oct 21, 2017 DJ FOTN

"After spending the day getting my new studio kit setup I decided to record an idea I was playing with. Featuring the Moog Sub 37, Moog Mother 32, Juno-106 and Native Instruments Una Corda and more than a little inspired by the Stranger Things sound track :)

Managed to get some really crunchy sounds out of the Mother 32 by feeding the VCO Pulse and the LFO Triangle back into the Ext Audio, then tuning the LFO and varying the VCO Mod Amount."

Octatrack MKII meets Yamaha FS1R and Analog Heat


Published on Oct 22, 2017 Daniel Troberg

"The Octatrack provides 4 channels of MIDI sequencing to the FS1R using different step lengths, time signatures and probabilities. The audio is routed back in to the Octatrack where probability resampling and playback happens. All sounds comes from the FS1R. The main out of the Octatrack goes in to the Analog Heat for additional distortion and equalization."

Synthestesia


Published on Oct 22, 2017 musicalfungus

"I just recently performed with an amazing artist collective in Oakland at an event called Synthestesia. 3 musicians using modular synths play improvised music to 3 different visual film artists using a 16mm film projector The artists do 15 minute round robin sets. I performed with both Eurorack and on the Buchla Music Easel. I had intended on recording the perromance but didn't end up doing it as planned.

The next morning I recreated one of my patches to the best of my ability. Luckily I had saved the quantized sequences in Rene so I was able to recreate one of my 15 minute sets pretty accurately.

Enjoy!"
