Having Fun with Digitone’s FM Synthesizer

Published on Jul 12, 2018 zibbybone

"I just received my new Elektron Digitone yesterday and I’ve been enjoying the synth engine so much, I haven’t even learned to program patterns. I love how there’s a 'Harmonics' feature that you can change the operators’ waveform from a basic sine wave to something more complex and rich in harmonics. You can even use an LFO to sweep the waveform creating quasi wavetable like timbres.

I chose algorithm 2 which has 2 audible operators, each with a modulator and you can mix between the 2. The “Y” part has instant attack and 'X' fades in."

Time Mod Arp - DSI Prophet X Demos by Synthetic.44kHz

"This is a single Prophet X sound. It's bi-timbral with LOTS of modulation routed to the Silders and Mod Wheel. All of the tonal variations are the result of controlling oscillator and instrument levels as well as filtering, envelopes, and time-based effects with the Mod Wheel and sliders. No multi tracking here. It was all played live."

Subtitles for Synth Videos

Moog Sub Phatty Explorations 4 - Looping Envelopes - Filter Published on Oct 11, 2015 matrixsynth

Set to HD for best quality. Listen on good monitors or headphones and turn it up. Turn CC in the bottom right of the player on and wait for it - at 1:38 on they begin to come in. And no, I did not do that on purpose. Thanks goes to Bastard Seaman in the YouTube comments for catching it!

Now I'm curious what other synth vids do...

GRP A-2 + ARTURIA MINIBRUTE 2 playing Bach Prelude D major 8

Published on Jul 12, 2018 LESINDES

"Handmade GRP A-2 and industry analog ARTURIA MINIBRUTE 2.
My challenge here was to tweak a proper sound for the BACH Prelude D major, BWV 850.
So different machines lead to different ideas -- so please don't look
for too much similarities!
Since (nearly) all of them are pure mono synths
all recordings are done in 2 takes. I filmed
the melody part."

"Freeform Analogue Technologies Freebass FB383 - Basically a rebranded version of the Music And More (MAM) MB33, which is basically a Roland TB-303 clone. It's a pure analog synthesizer with a real VCO and a rich squelchy highly resonant filter. The famous 303 glide/slide is controlled by playing legato (or increasing the gate time on an arpeggiator.) I believe these were made in Germany in the mid 90's."

Analog Synth #2 - Sad and Slow

Published on Jul 12, 2018 Andreas Remshagen

"The Strings-Machine (explained in my videos before) is driven over two ADSR`s - one for the VCA and one for the Steiner-VCF.
(Both ADSR`s are driven over an LFO - see the blue flashing light)
The Attack
is not too fast so it has the Character of an String-Orchestra.
The Strings-Machine plays a four-Notes Chord in minor.
The Keyboard is a modified Formant-Keyboard (Two Wheels and
a Vibrato is added in the Control-Panel)
The Solo Voice is a Sine-VCO running through a Moog-Clone Filter
(Both are described in the site from www.yusynth.net)"

Medusa Hybrid Synthesizer - The Grid modulators

Published on Jul 12, 2018 Polyend

"Medusa's Grid is a powerful tool. In this example of use, we've recorded a nice chord progression in the middle row of the Grid. The pads on the bottom row don't hold any notes only parameter modulations (each can hold up to 118 parameter flags). The six-voice chord are modulated while they're being played, both released by hand and sequenced on the top row of the Grid. You can even use the Grid as a source of modulation when you're playing the Medusa with an attached external MIDI keyboard. Hope you'll enjoy this short video. Best regards to our friends from Dreadbox!"
