Alesis AirSynth and Doctor A - short performance demo (5 presets)

1:01 Preset 03+delay FM

"The Alesis AirSynth is a fun, rare and expressive unit to create synths sounds, drum/perc bits, and FX. the aXYZ Dome controller (a fancier version of the Roland D-beam) allows careful and wild control of various sounds. The AirSynth only has 50 presets but you get quite a variety of patches and variation with the dome controller. Add some FX and it really shines.

The companion AirFX unit (blue) has the same basic function an layout, but it’s purely an effect unit. I’ll post a demo of that one soon.

The only drawback is it’s the typical Alesis AC-AC adapter power (not AC-DC), so for mobile use you have to use an AC inverter and a DC power bank (I’ve done it many times). It’s just more bulky.

Unit has 50 Factory Presets - Synths/Drums/FX"

"Rare two minikorg 700 units modded in one unit. Unique. Is in good working condition. Only little cracking in the volume sliders. With the lower toggle switch (orginal on/of switch on the front) you can put the unit(s) on and off. On the back is a cv/gate/filter mod and some switches to control the lower or the upper part for the cv gate and the filter. The upper cable hole is empty see picture 9. The seperated outputs on the back still works. Next to the standard volume outputs is a extra output, this is for the both parts. It's a 220 volt version. The lfo from both synth working together to get strange rhytmes. It comes with extra parts from the mod like the extra wooden pieces."

Sequential Artist Spotlight Interview with DELAURENTIS

You can find the interview on Sequential's website here.

"Musician, producer, composer, writer, and singer – DeLaurentis is one and more. It’s the story of a French little girl who would watch her dad playing music, and quickly understood that musical notes could spring up and fly away from her arms, her hands, her fingers. The music was a part of her. With this revelation, the sky opened up to her. After several years spent at the Conservatory she became a self-taught producer, and discovered the world of computer music influenced by Laurie Anderson, one of the first women to pioneer electronic music. DeLaurentis settled in Paris in 2015, and released her first two EPs. She started to get noticed then, with her unique universe and music videos. Her new album “UNICA” is due to release on September 3rd, 2021. We chatted with DeLaurentis on how she uses the Prophet Rev2 in her music."

"This Matrix 6R is fully functional and in great condition. It has been fully serviced here at Switched On and has as a new battery installed.

The Matrix 6 was one of the last few synthesizers from Oberheim to come out during the mid-eighties following the classic OB-series. The Matrix 6 utilized high-tech but less expensive digital and midi features and still retained a totally analog sound. It did this by using DCOs (digitally controlled oscillators) to provide stability, programmability and more. All the Matrix synthesizers featured Matrix Modulation which allows for extremely wild virtual patching for almost unlimited range of sounds and modulation capabilities!

Each of its 6 voices has a pair of DCOs, a low pass filter, 2 VCA's, 3 envelope generators, 2 LFO's, and 2 ramp gens for a variety of complex analog pads, basses and sounds."

BeatCutter - Endless sound structures (Feedback mode)

video upload by Igor Vasiliev

"BeatCutter app updated to version 1.4

This update adds new datasets for generating parameters using templates, slightly improves the sound engine and fixes found issues.

This video demonstrate an example of creating constantly changing sound structures from a single sample in feedback mode. This is an example of a simple enough way to use the BeatCutter with randomly generated templates. However, the result can be quite interesting.

BeatCutter is an experimental multi-channel app for slicing and recombining sound based on rhythm. In the center of the app is a matrix of sample cells with smoothly reconfigurable recording, playback and control busses. This app is best for those who would like to experiment with large audio files or live instruments, creating chaotic constructions and patterns from sliced rhythm-driven samples."

E-mu Proteus MPS Plus Demos - ROM Bank 3

video upload by Python Blue

"Finally decided to make another set of synthesizer demos. This one entails a recently acquired E-mu Proteus MPS Plus keyboard, best known as the synthesizer used in the music for Myst. To challenge myself, and to help inform others about the sound, I tried to perform as many of the unique presets as I could.

This last video of three covers the last unique ROM bank of presets, exclusive to the MPS Plus and based on the Proteus 2 instruments. With this, all of the unique presets should now be represented: the ROM 4 bank is a duplication of the RAM bank in the MPS Plus.

Hope everyone enjoys!"
