"I don't know if this will publish before the New Year... I have 35 minutes. I guess we'll see. The end of a decade. A lot has passed. The loss of my father, the end of terrible relationships... but the beginnings of other great things. A wonderful wife, an amazing child, my PhD, a home, a dog (I guess all my cats carried over from another decade). I'd say my music has gone well - but comparison is the thief of joy and I know my channel is pretty abysmal compared to many others around here. Hopefully the next decade goes well. I could use another good one.

My apologies for some of the camera angles. I set up my camera and recorded without really checking it out and honestly, I'm too lazy to reshoot.

Gear list:
Yamaha SY77 (bass), Roland JX-3P (melody), Chroma Polaris (heavy lead), Oberheim Matrix 1000 (bell? sound), Yamaha RS7000 (sequencing and drums), eventide space (FX)"

1983 Crumar Spirit

via this auction

SN 19

"The Crumar Spirit was originally designed by Bob Moog (himself), Jim Scott & Tom Rhea and released back in 1983. It is a full featured analog monophonic synthesizer with 2 VCO's so it's got a pretty fat tone, but not as much as the classic 3-VCO Minimoog. However it is considerably more flexible than the latter. It has a basic 37-note keyboard without velocity or aftertouch. The two oscillators feature basic sawtooth, triangle and square waves and can be synced together.

The filter section is very nice featuring low-, high- and band-pass filters and switchable 12dB or 24dB slopes. Other features of the filter include an independent envelope with inverted and normal ADSR, key tracking and single or multiple triggering of the filter. Some other features of the Spirit include a built-in ring-modulator, an Arpeggiator with 3 different patterns and that can be linked to the LFO, and there's an external audio input for running external sounds through its filters, LFOs or Ring Mod.

This one is in very good cosmetic and technical condition. 2 slider caps are lost. See the pictures. 100 % working. 220 volt version. No cracking sliders."

"I had this short atmospheric synth track in a dusty corner of my hard drive. I came across a metro station under repairs that lent it a very interesting look with its vertical neon lighting illuminating the bare roof concrete. The music and the unconventional underground ambience go well together in this short video that transitions to the actual sounds of underground passageways, escalators and platforms.

Have you come across any interesting public transport structures in your travels or day to day?"

http://www.expandingsound.com/product...

I often make a few jams showcasing the sound of an Ableton Instrument pack I release, here is a second jam for my newest release, the Prophet 600. I was having a ton of fun with this pack and hope you enjoy it.

A little more on the Prophet 600 pack

The Prophet 600 is sometimes referred to as the "little brother" of the Prophet 5. Don't let that description allow you to underestimate the Prophet 600. It's a beautiful sounding vintage synth. The pads and brass patches sound incredible. The filter is syrupy and warm. I love the Prophet 600 and I think you will too. It's often referred to as one of the best under the radar synth deals on the market. This pack is very straightforward in its sound palate. I wanted to make serviceable musical sounds for my first go at this synth, and follow it up with a more experimental modulation heavy pack in the future. This Megapack will set you up to start making music right away."

1967 Rocky Mount Instruments ( RMI) Explorer Combo Organ

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

via this auction

This is the same one in the video above.

"Extremely rare and unusual combo organ made by Allen Organ’s Rocky Mountain Instrument division in the late 1960s. This is a transistor based keyboard with an oscillator for each key and unique flying hammer system for asynchronous tremolo and delay like effects.

Preset sounds include: Trumpet, Post Horn, Clarinet, Gamba, Flute, Mandolin, Banjo..what really makes this instrument interesting are the effects - Short Sustain, Long Sustain, Strum, String Speech Accenter, Echo & Tremolo.

This Explorer is fully functional, it has been cleaned inside and out. It is in average cosmetic condition for these with some chipping of the painted plywood case. A new case could be constructed if desired but i chose to leave it be due to the extreme rarity of this instrument. All keyboard action felts have been replaced with parts supplied by Allen Organ, it plays and feels incredible compared to the other 2 I’ve serviced over the last decade. I also took the opportunity to recap the power supply with new high quality electrolytic capacitors for safety as the originals were beginning to leak.

Includes the original keyboard cover, a NOS power cord that I managed to hunt down at a surplus supply company and the original capacitors i removed from the supply."

The Intellijel Quadrax is Four Powerful Function Generators in 14HP

Published on Dec 31, 2019 Perfect Circuit

"Intellijel's Quadrax is an updated version of the Quadra—their classic quadruple function generator. And while Quadra primarily emulated the behavior of classic Buchla and Serge function generators by creating AD, AR, and cycling envelopes, Quadrax does much more. In this video, it is paired with a Noise Engineering Cursus Iteritas and Malekko Varigate 4+ to create intricate sequenced modulation patterns.

Digital at its core, Quadrax expands the quad function generator paradigm with a number of new features. Of course, AD/AR/cycling modes are still available—but expanded LFO and pulse burst modes are also available. Quadrax's LFOs are wavetable based and allow continuous variation of wave shape, for everything from classic triangles and squares to considerably more complex, pseudo-wavefolded shapes. Quadrax's bursts are variable-amplitude pulse signals, great for evolving, dynamic modulation.

All of this combined with complex options for interrelating channels via an integrated modulation matrix makes Quadrax an uncommonly advanced function generator—perfect for simple envelope duties, LFOs, and generative modulation."

Vermona '14/Gregorian Chant (Hildegard von Bingen: "Caritas Habundat")

Published on Dec 31, 2019 Kris Lennox

"Hello all - and a happy new year/decade when it arrives. Appropriately, a little von Bingen to finish off the decade. If this work sounds familiar: the initial melody/phrase was used as the horn solo melody (first phrase) on the track 'Life' from the movie 'Prometheus'. The phrase ending is slightly altered in Prometheus, but the seed can clearly be heard. The second horn phrase is, however, authentic to von Bingen.

These melodies (Gregorian chants in general) have been part of my musical heritage since early childhood, and have been part of the family for many generations. Hence my plan to record and release an 'official' set in the near future.

In any instance, the coming decade will certainly be an interesting one.

open e-drums - Open Source Drum Synthesizer with Teensy 3.2

Published on Dec 31, 2019 Ryo Kosaka

https://github.com/RyoKosaka/HelloDru...

Features

Single piezo pad, Dual Piezo pad, 2 zone cymbal, 3 zone cymbal
Compatible with YAMAHA's 3 zone cymbal(PCY135/PCY155)
Compatible with SoftPot, FSR and Optical(TCRT5000) type hi-hat controllers
Sensing with MUX(4051 and 4067)
Setting mode with LCD or OLED
Sensitivity, Threshold, Scan Time, Mask Time, Note Number can be set with each pad
Works with ESP32 and Teensy and AVR boards such as UNO and MEGA.

https://open-e-drums.com

"open e-drums" is a completely open source electronic drum. Pads that can be produced with 3D printers, and midi converters are all open source hardware. Arduino code for sensing is also available. You can create your own e-drum from scratch, or add pads to the Roland and YAMAHA kits.

ABOUT
This project started by accident. At the time, I was a product design student who had used Arduino just a little. When I found a drum mania controller at a used store at a bargain price, I was somehow attracted to it and bought it. This is the beginning of everything. I took it apart and played with Arduino. I used a piezo for the first time at that time. I learned the delicate sensing ability of piezo. I realized the greatness of electronic drums such as Roland, Yamaha, and Alesis, which process the signals beautifully. I want to try it myself.

I didn't have any knowledge of programming or electronics. In other words, I have acquired a lot of knowledge through this project. For some people, this project is just a reinvention of the wheel. But it's a very meaningful project for me. As I proceeded with this project, I drew on the knowledge of many predecessors. Many of them keep information open. That's great. So I decided to publish this project as an open source hardware project. I would be happy if this project helps someone create something."

Metasonix 4u Drums with the Serge Modular Gate Sequencer

Low Pass Gate. RK3 Mangler and RK2 VCA are processing the RK4 Kick.

Two droning RK7 Oscillators are mixed on the Serge XFADER , with a bit of BlueSky reverb on top. The SCROLAB Gate Sequencer has some cool ways to manually affect the sequences. Here in this video , i´m just focusing on altering it´s own clock ( A Stroh Pico VCO) by patching one of the GAte Sequencer Full outputs to the 1v/OCT on the Pico. I have to mention again that i´m not amplifying any Serge control signal in order to work with the Metasonix modules. Thanks for watching the videos. Have a Great 2020 !"

"We explore the Metasonix RK5 Dual Low Pass Gate. A lowpass gate is essentially a low pass VCF configured to behave like a VCA. The RK5 is a unique take on the LPG with two independent channels that have their own sonic characteristics. It is extremely simple, with just input, output and a single CV per channel. We demonstrate it with envelopes as CV and a variety of input spirses.

From metasonix.com
'Since part of our remit is to explore an electronic-music history that didn’t actually happen, one inevitable product would have been a lowpass gate. Our version is a dual unit, dead simple Sallen-Key filter with just input, output and CV input for each channel. The tube used is a “high-perveance” dissimilar dual triode, the 17JK8. It was apparently intended for use as a “cascode” RF front-end amplifier in cheap consumer FM radios.'"

Jupiter 4-6-8 Jamming

Published on Dec 29, 2019 synthlegends

"Little improvised Roland Jam Session of TR-808, JP-4, JP-6, JP-8 and Juno-60.

I like the idea of old school Roland machines for spontaneous jamming via the three trigger outs of the TR-808.
In this recording I didn't use any effects or mastering. So all instruments are pure mixed into the audio interface and DAW.

The JP-4 played a pulse wave bass line with sub oszilator in random arpeggio mode, only played a C with hold the arp -so easy, isn't it?

The JP-8 played an arpeggio line with the UP-Mode and Range 2, it is a simple saw and pulse wave mixed and minimal filter opened 24 dB.

The Juno-60 plays a Pad sound with an inverted filter envelope for rising the filter in the release phase. There is a bit LFO on the PWM, it is also mixed with the Suboszilator.

The JP-6 plays a bell tone with band pass filter and a bit resonance.

Have fun and a happy new year!"

Vintage ARP Pro Soloist Synthesizer Model 2701 SN 273801

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

via this auction

"ARP Pro Soloist Synthesizer from the 1970's in VG - Exc cosmetic condition. Serial number: 273801. Made in Newton, MA, USA.

Super clean unit comes from the original owner. All original, no mods. Notably used by Tony Banks of Genesis.

All Presets and Sensor Effects work. Overall tone is somewhat distorted so it is probably overdue for a tune-up. One slider tip is missing. Some tape marks on the back panel.

'ARP Instruments, having developed the large and powerful ARP 2500 for studio work, released the Soloist as a light, portable, easy-to-use performance instrument that could be placed on top of an electric piano or Hammond organ. In contrast to the flexible modular design of the 2500, the Soloist had no patch panels or cables. A set of toggle switches allowed the performer to quickly choose one of 18 preset monophonic patches that were not modifiable (note that "Voice" was ARP parlance for Preset, or Patch). This lack of programmability was compensated by giving the performer control over the voice expression, adding "growl", "wow", "brilliance", portamento, pitch bend, and/or vibrato to the timbre. A pressure-sensitive keyboard allowed players to use aftertouch to control all of these effects.'"

1 Minute of Mononoke (preview)

Published on Dec 30, 2019 Bram Bos

"Mononoke is an expressive drone synthesizer designed for creating soundscapes and melodic textures that seamlessly morph from harmonic snowscapes to cold and agitated ice fields.

It has a 2-part multitimbral, 8-voice polyphonic synth engine. But the most interesting part is how all 8 voices feed back into each other, together creating a haunting, constantly evolving landscape.

Using 8 expressive performance pads you can play Mononoke interactively, and optionally record your performance as MPE MIDI in an MPE compatible host sequencer. MPE input controllers are also supported.

Coming soon.

The sound in this video is an unedited recording from the synthesizer."

Crumar Bit One MIDI Upgrade demo

Published on Dec 29, 2019 Harry Axten

"This is a modification I developed for the Crumar Bit One, a fairly rare Italian-made polysynth from the mid 1980's, that improves its MIDI capability. The upgrade takes the form of a small daughterboard that installs neatly inside the synth. More information can be found at https://hkadesign.org.uk/bitonemidi.html"

"Meticulously overhauled over a whopping 32 hours (!). They usually don't take us this long, but this one had a tricky problem in the digital oscillator section that required a lot of time to sort out. In addition to performing this and any other repairs, we did the following work to this unit:

Touch sensor was replaced with a new one and adjusted. These are usually not working at this point in time.
Power supply capacitors replaced to extend life.
Keyboard rebuilt: replaced bushings, cleaned key contacts and removed and cleaned/polished bus bars.
Removed, adjusted, cleaned, lubed and reinstalled all slide pots.
Cleaned and lubed all switches.
Adjusted tuning.
Cleaned inside and out.

Thanks to all the time, love and money we invested in this unit, it is now working like new again, is totally ready to play, and will hopefully continue to work for a very long time, which makes it a much better purchase than others of its type on the market."

"These units were produced for educational purposes but as you can see they are easily integrated in to a banana cable modular synth set up (eg Buchla, Serge, Modcan A, Phenol, Fenix, Bugbrand, Lorre Mill, Ciat Lombard etc)

It's a collection of various logic, digital and simple AD/DA circuits with a few analog sections and a HEX input key pad.

I've seen them advertised as "Analog Computers" which of course they are not, but I can see why some folk might think so.

I intended to use this with my Serge system but never got around to it and now I need the space.

The high/low switch for the digital clock speed needs replacing."

via this auction

"This is a cool rack unit that can be triggered via pad or a trigger pulse from something like the Arturia Beatstep Pro or Behringer RD-8 drum machine. I have used both to trigger it as well as Simmons pads. The hand clap can't be tweaked much, but it's nice and clappy. The Synth on the other hand is bonkers. It has a longer release than any other Techstar drum sound. I have one of the bigger 6 channel Techstar units as well and this one is the longest. It has an LFO which no other Techstar sound has either."

DivKid Ochd w/ Manis Iteritas | LFO Chaos

Published on Dec 29, 2019 Nostalgic Ruckus

"Been waiting for something like this for the skiff. Luv my clock dividers and multipliers and this kinda does it with LFOs. Cranking that rate knob is a beautiful thing. The Manis with all the patch cables is being modulated by Ochd only. The other Manis output is plugged into the E440 filter to tame some unwanted harmonics but also add some resonance when Ochd gapes the envelope. Attenuating Ochd's outputs with Bored Brain Splix. The CV input on this thing is crazy cool when self patching it just didn’t do it on this patch."

POLYGOGO Stereo Oscillator - Sound Demo #2 - Eurorack Modular Synthesizer

Published on Dec 29, 2019 MIKE LEE BIRDS

"In the previous video I used the amazing POLYGOGO as sort of a drone/soundscape machine.

Here it‘s hooked up to the beautiful TUESDAY procedural sequencer from „This Is Not Rocket Science“.
The fold circuit serves as a VCA and is fed an envelope from MATHS. That same envelope goes into the OP (internal FM) Amount input for a quasi-sort-of-filter idea.

About the fold-VCA thing:
I noticed that feeding a negative voltage into the fold circuit and turning the attenuator to between 2 and 3 o‘clock will silence Polygogo. A positive voltage can then control the volume, hence Maths.
More clearly: Maths channel two is sending negative voltage (knob at 9 o’clock) through the sum output and channel one adds an envelope triggered by Tuesday.

- CHANCE changes polygons.
- MONSOON (Clouds) is responsible for reverb and adds pitch shifted delay later on.
- BEAST’S CHALKBOARD does some octave shifting off screen.
- PEAKS provides bass drum and hihats triggered by Tuesday’s beat and ticks outputs respectively. Sorry for the clipping bass drum.."

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

via this auction

"Fully Refurbished & Future-Proofed, sparing no expense. This process took a whopping 23 hours of skilled labor. Part of this time was spent attempting to rebuild some of the original potentiometers, but they didn't meet our high standards after our efforts (they usually don't), so we decided to replace them all with new ones. In addition to a full servicing, we took preventative measures so this Ody will hopefully outlast all others out there. The work we did included the following:

Full disassembly and deep cleaning inside and out.
Power supply rebuild.
Recalibration.
Replacement of all tantalum capacitors.
Removal and replacement of all rubber key bushings.
Cleaning of all key contacts.
Cleaning of bus bars.
Adjustment of keys.
Replacement of all potentiometers (approximate parts cost $300)
Cleaning of all switch contacts.
Replacement of power cord.

Post-restoration, this unit works like new again and is a real pleasure to play. Sure to make its next owner really happy. This unit is much better than the rest and is priced to reflect the investment we made to make it better than others on the market.

New Motion Soundscape Classic FX Coming Next Year

via Motion Soundscape

"A new app is on the way. Classic FX - Reworked classic audio effects units.

This app consists a lot of different simple audio processing units like filters, delay, chorus, panner, vibrato, etc. The algorithms are define connections between these units and construct more complex effects. The presets integrate the algorithm and parameters of the processing modules. So you can have several options of using the same algorithm with different parameters.

You can choose two different presets and morph between them manually or cycle mode. Sophisticated morphing smoothly transforms one algorithm into another and can create stunning transition effects.

To give more dynamic, it is possible to change the effects depending on the level of the input signal, as well as make changes related to the rhythm using the internal step sequencer.

This app will support AUv3, Inter-App audio (Audiobus) and work as standalone audio processing app. It will be universal app for iPad and iPhone. No in-app purchases, no subscriptions.

Happy New Year!"
