Strymon Nightsky + Analog Poly Synthesizer


Mitchell Rays

"Just a quick video of what the Strymon Nighsky is capable for doing to a Polyphonic 4 Voice Analog Synth. I'm going to be doing more videos in depth. This Nighsky is ridiculously awesome! Another master piece by Strymon.

-Dave Smith Instruments Tetra"

Update:

Strymon Nightsky | In depth parameter sound demo with synth


"Juts messing around with the controls on the Strymon NIghsky so you can get a feel for the pedal. Wasn't trying to play anything musical or creatively. Played the same chord so you can hear what the pedal changes. Hope you find this video useful. This is a lovely pedal that would be a great addition to any pedal board."

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


via this auction, also on Reverb

"It has the rare 12 voice expansion chip which (in my opinion and many you'll read on the internet) is basically essential for this synth. This chip goes for $300 by itself. Two listings on eBay for Nord Lead 1s with this expansion are listed for over $2k (crazy high but shows that they are rare)."

Concentric Rings of Feedback


poorness studios

"I was just messing around and somehow create a patch that is just rings of feedback. The Sara VCF (in self-oscillation) is the only sound source and it goes into the Resonant EQ, then into the Chronoblob, and finally into Typhoon. Each module adds another feedback loop. It's nothing special but I felt like I had to share this."

Recently service where it was calibrated/tuned, all new bushings were put in, and the transformer secondary was isolated from the chassis ground to eliminate the 60 cycle hum."

Roland Gr-700, gr-707 guitar synthesizer system c 1980s

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

via this auction

"Vintage c 1980s Roland gr700/ gr707 analog guitar synthesizer system, complete with, cabling, and user manual!

This unit is in superb functional condition, and has just been serviced. All voices are 100%, and It’s ready for another 35 years of radness. It is in just lovely shape, and has clearly been babied over the years, case and all.

The guitar is quite a lovely player of its own accord; the humbuckers are fat and gritty, neck arrow straight and true, action perfectly low, and she holds great tune, even with vigorous dive-bombing. (You will be dive bombing). She looks rad enough on stage to sling w/o the synth ;)

The synth of course, is pure WOW. Build around the same basic 2 vco/ voice architecture as the Jx3p/ Juno 60, it’s a truly powerful and versatile analog synth. The synth module can also function as an awesome, and super weird expander module, especially, with a pg200.

She’s just a peach, and I haven’t seen her better. Perfect for the Studio, pro player or synth nerd for whom the real sound of the real thing really matters. Enjoy!"

QUEEN OF PENTACLES: analog and digital voices walkthrough


TheEndorphines

Check with dealers on the right for availability.

"Our new 7 voice hybrid drum machine features 3 analog drum voices modelled after the iconic 909 drum machine.
The analog voices are Kick / Snare / Clap.
Kick can be controlled by 3 parameters: Tune / Pitch envelope amount / distortion.
Snare and Clap share one parameter called Decay, which sets the length of the sound. Additionally Snare has a dedicated tune pot and Clap has a dedicated tone pot. All 3 voices are also controlled by a Spoiler control (sample rate reducer) that affects the noise signal applied to each voice making everything sound more crunchy.

Additionally, module features 4 sample-based voices, with a total of 8 banks of 4 samples each created by Nicolas Bougaieff. You can control these samples by pressing the mode/bank button and tweaking the 4 dedicated knobs, switching between pitch and amp decay controls. Long pressing the bank button/mode will switch the sample bank. Additionally, the positions of the 8 parameters (pitch and amp decay) are stored once you switch the bank, making it easier to set up and recall kits. You can additionally load your own samples into it to create your own custom kits!"

Tama Techstar TAM500 - 80's Analog Drum Synth Sounds



"This is an analog drum voice module from 1985, meant to be used with Tama Techstar electronic drum kits. Here I am triggering it with drum gates from an Arturia Beatstep Pro. I've also successfully used it with homemade piezo triggers on a drum kit.

Testing Arturia PolyBrute for Trancy Techno Track.


Sound Provider

"Small demo of the Arturia Polybrute Polyphonic Analog Synth on a Basic Techno /Trance-y Track here.
Originally I did this to test the presets I created for Arturia, to check if they could be used as they are, we all already found some amazing presets impossible to place in a song.
For this exercise I mixed this song differently than a "normal" song:
Even if I used some EQs and compressors, I used them a lot more lightly to avoid denaturing too much the sound of the PolyBrute, I didn't use any effects other than those of the Synthesizer (reverb/delay and modulation), I also played everything by hand in one shot without doing any edits.
The result is a bit rough but I think it's ok to give an idea .
For the sounds of this demo come from the Synthetiser except the Kick which comes from the Sound Bank I made for Sound Provider: "Techno kick now" ( Sp Techno Kick 130Bpm 01 ) and 2 loops of HiHat which comes at 0:36,1:20 and 2:35 which come from "Techno hi-hat now". (Sp Techno HH 130 Bpm Full 03 / Sp Techno HH 130 Bpm Off Beat 05 )
You can always go on the site ( https://www.sound-provider.eu/ )to listen to their demos and why not buy them for your tracks (and also support us ❤😉)
All the other sounds come from the PolyBrute:
Bass, Pad, Horn, Arp, Bouncing Lead, Wobble bass, First HH/percu, Noise Fx.

Arturia KeyStep 37 Chords with Scale Quantizer Demo (Feat Novation Peak Synth & Boss DD-8 Delay)


Sound Provider

Update: moved this post up as I had a typo in the video ID. It should play now.

"After my video about the "One finger Chord" with Arturia KeyStep 37 controller & Sequencer Keyboard ( below ) some people asked me how the keyboard manages chords with the scale quantizer , because doing maj 7 (for exemple) on every key is cool (and lot of good house or rave tracks we were made that way) but most of the time it's better to have chords that fit with the scale you use.
So I did this quick exemple , hope it can help some of you.
Little reminder, on Chord mode you can choose 12 differents chords type and on the Scale Quantizer you can choose between Chromatic /Major/Minor/Blues and User Scale.
For this video I also use the Novation Peak Synth and the Boss DD-8 delay.

Voila.
