The Beatles - Here Comes The Sun (Official Video - 2019 Mix)

Published on Sep 26, 2019 The Beatles

Spot the synth.

You can find the new release of Abbey Road on Amazon here.

"Abbey Road presented with new mixes in stereo, 5.1 surround, and Dolby Atmos; expanded with previously unreleased session recordings and demos.

Super deluxe 4 disc set, 3 LP deluxe vinyl, 2 CD deluxe, limited edition picture disc, CD, LP, digital and streaming. Available everywhere 27th September 2019.

It was 50 years ago today, on August 8, 1969, that the world’s most famous band stepped out from London’s EMI Recording Studios to stride, single-file, across the black and white stripes of Abbey Road’s nearby zebra crossing. With photographer Iain Macmillan balanced on a stepladder and one policeman stopping the street’s light traffic, The Beatles crossed back and forth three times, led by John Lennon, followed by Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison. Just six photos were taken, with the fifth selected as the cover shot for The Beatles’ penultimate studio album, Abbey Road, named after the tree-lined street in which the studios are located.

Released September 26, 1969, Abbey Road was not The Beatles’ final album, as Let It Be followed in 1970, but it was the last one John, Paul, George, and Ringo recorded together as a band. The Beatles will celebrate Abbey Road’s anniversary with a suite of beautifully presented packages to be released worldwide on September 27 by Apple Corps Ltd./Capitol/UMe. Now available for preorder, the album’s 17 tracks are newly mixed by producer Giles Martin and mix engineer Sam Okell in stereo, high res stereo, 5.1 surround, and Dolby Atmos, accompanied by 23 session recordings and demos, most of which are previously unreleased.

Moog Matriarch: Exploring Stereo Delay and Modulation

Published on Sep 26, 2019 Getsemani Music

"Put on your finest headphones as we explore the new Moog Matriarch. Today we'll focus on experimenting with the built in stereo delay and modulation modules. This demo uses no external effects and no special patching, just using the Matriarch's default internal wiring. We ended up with some interesting spacy effects, and sounds ranging from the delicate to shredding with some reminiscence of Emerson's modular."

Roland 510, Mother 32, Pico Logic, Z-DSP etc: Logic Dance

Published on Sep 26, 2019 Seen From Space

"Two new modules get their first outing: Roland 510 synth voice and TipTop Z-DSP effects.

Copper Traces Seek drives the 510, but made unpredictable by Pico Logic with 2 inputs from the Octocontroller. A different logical output triggers an ADSR modulating the 510 filter, such that it beats against the logic controlling the pitch. I occasionally pause Seek, and you can hear the envelope still being triggered unpredictably. Audio then goes into the Z-DSP.

The Mother 32 also gets a bit of logic from Pico Logic A to mess with its sequencing, then audio into the effects on my DSI Pro 2 and a touch of Lexicon reverb."

GEOSynths Sound Design - Top Ten Tips - 1. Oscillator Blending

Published on Sep 26, 2019 GEOSynths

"This is important as the Goal of using multiple Oscillators is to create a new Waveshape from various others, the "Sum of its Parts" so to speak. You can create a variety of tonal changes over time, just by blending the Volume, changing the Shape and Pitch of the Oscillators, way before even using the Filter."

Fjossa | Novation Summit Ambient

Published on Sep 22, 2019 r beny

"Hello. I am back. Here is a video featuring the Novation Summit. A quick little improv session based around some patches I made for the Summit this summer.

In this video, I'm using the multi-patching capability to meld 2 patches together. At first playing 1 singular patch, then with a split between the patches on the keyboard, then with both patches layered.

These patches and the song were inspired by a trip I took to Iceland this summer. I was in awe of the many waterfalls I saw there, I wanted to create a patch that felt like sound was flowing and dramatic, with lots of movement and modulation.

I believe the patches will be released by Novation at some point."

Extra features (note priority, env trigger etc.) accessible via MIDI CCs so no need for the editor, in my experience anyway.

Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 Rev 3.3 W/ Midi

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

via this auction

"This is a fine condition Rev 3.3 thats been totally electronically restored. The unit features factory midi with midi thru (not common). It has 120 program slots with a brand new battery to retain them in memory.

As for upgrades, all ECO’s we know of have been done to this prophet so it performs as well as possible. We are lucky to have access to certain factory updates not found on the web, and those have been performed on this unit so it is as stable as possible.

The power supply has been left original however a toroidal transformer has been added in place of the original type for silent operation. The original transformer has mechanical buzz and can be a nuisance in well treated studios. Additionally, the audio noise floor is lowered by this new transformer, so it will also sound clearer than other prophets.
The transformer we use also helps the prophet run considerably cooler than others, so the unit will last longer between tuning cycles.

Regarding electronics, of course all tantalum capacitors have been replaced with high quality electrolytic. Other capacitors commonly overlooked by others have been replaced to clean up the signal path for a like new sound.

Brand new bushings are installed for a flawless action.

The Tauntek firmware has also been added. This gives better midi control over the unit, but also adds some features such as unison detune, which is awesome!

All in all, this is a fine example of a prophet 5 that will surely bring many years of joy to it’s next owner."

"Excellent sounding rackmount TB-303 "clone", somewhat under the radar, with added features (sub oscillator, distortion...), no onboard sequencer but with accent, and nearly all parameters MIDI controlable from an external sequencer or DAW.

This specific MkII model is the more desirable one as, unlike other versions, it has the more accurate sounding 18db filter.

Works perfect, amazing cosmetic condition for its age, as shown in the pictures, with just a couple very light scratches from rackmounting and the paint largely immaculate."

Six4Pix Arpie + CVTab Firmware V6 Standalone tutorial with Modded TB-303

Published on Sep 26, 2019 While We Were Sleeping

Sixty Four Pixels - note Arpie made it's first appearance back in 2015.

00:00 - 01:07 Intro
01:07 - 05:28 Part 1 - Basic Arpeggiator
05:28 - 08:20 Part 2 - Patterns
08:20 - 09:25 Part 3 - Random patterns
09:25 - 10:30 Part 4 - Clock out
10:30 - 11:26 Part 5.1 - other features - Skip over notes
11:26 - 11:50 Part 5.2 - Other Features - Hz/V scaling
11:50 - 13:02 Part 5.3 - Other Features - Force to scale
Bonus Material:
11:26 - 14:15 - 1 Note Acid bass-line
14:15 - 15:48 - Eurorack synced Jam

"In this video, I am showing the features of the Arpie by six4pix with it's latest firmware Version 6. This is a significant update to the Arpie and turns it into a powerful Arpeggiator / Sequencer hybrid with a unique workflow and feature set.

The Arpie can be used standalone or with a MIDI keyboard. I love the standalone nature of the Arpie and chose to show it that way in this video.

I am also using the CVtab expansion to control my TB-303 with its Borg mod from Analogue Solutions.
The CVTab gives the Arpie a CV out, a gate out and a third out that can act as a trigger for accents, slides ... or as a clock out. The CVTab also provides storing of 16 patterns.

All the technics used in this video will also work using MIDI except for pattern saving and restoring. MIDI provides a number of features not available as CV and are not covered in this video.

I am covering most of the Arpie features but not all so do read the manual for more details

I did my best to make things clear but if you have any questions do ask in the comments and ill do my best to answer.

A few notes on using the Arpie:

The main function aria has a 4x3 button greed each button in the greed has 2 functions: Press and Long Press. the instructions in the video make this clear however I made a mistake 1:30 in and made a long press before correcting it to a normal short press. I think I got it correct in all other places, but the instructions should be all correct.

Once selecting a function you configure the function using the 16 LEDs/push buttons at the top of the Arpie.

Bonus Material:

1 Note Acid bass-line - This was recorded an earlier test version of the Firmware, but I thought it is interesting to see how the firmware evolved and I liked it and did not want to shoot it again.
(In this version where access to the [PATN] additional layers is on the [Mode button])
Can you work out how to play this using the latest version?

Eurorack synced Jam - While working on the tutorial I was to focused on what I was showing to get a good sync going to my Eurorack so I added a jam that shows better results. I also want to add that it is not difficult to get a sync going and you can create interesting grooves by choosing the start point.

Final thoughts, I love the organic nature of the Arpie and mixing the various technics to create surprising and unexpected results. I have many ideas for patches using the Arpie that I hope to share in the future.
If you have an Arpie would love to hear how you use it?"

Stziopa x Bastl: Kompas

Published on Sep 26, 2019 Bastl Instruments

"Kompas is a three-coordinate probabilistic pattern navigator. Each coordinate has a unique travelling pace and a dedicated trigger output. The amount of probability can be adjusted manually or by external voltages. Once a coordinate has been adjusted, a new pattern is generated and looped until the next change of direction.

this tool is the outcome of the environment we are in
and is inspired by non-linear approach to music and life – don't build any expectations, choose your direction and discover new paths

Unlike common probability operation, instead of filtering a pre-determined sequence, Kompas uses probability to generate new looping patterns based on the direction you choose.

Features
global clock and reset input
3 x 32 step pattern generators with travelling algorithms
3 CV inputs for coordinate modulation
3 trigger outputs
2/5/10ms selectable trigger length (via boot settings)
DIY and hacker friendly Arduino programmable hardware
open-source schematics and code
includes a printed fanzine with navigation topics
available also as a DIY soldering and coding workshop"

Kompas wes first introduced in May for SUPERBOOTH 2019.

weight | Teenage Engineering OP-1 + OP-Z Ambient

Published on Sep 26, 2019 Blicero

"weight by Blicero.

My first track with the Teenage Engineering OP-1.

All the words of it’s uniqueness and quirkiness are true and then some. Here I’m using the built in gyroscope to bend the notes in and out by tilting the OP-1 while I play.

The OP-1 is doing all of the spacey more ambient sounds; and the OP-Z provides the rest. The OP-1 is going into the Zoia. Here the Zoia is just a delay with some very subtle warm distortion.

OP-1 sounds are samples of instruments I have around; for this piece I don’t use the synth engines.

Recorded into a Zoom H6 and lightly processed in Ableton."
