Silent Night Roland System-8 Christmas Synthesizer Music Rik Marston

video upload by Rik Marston Official

"Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas!
One of my personal Christmas music favorites: Silent Night Roland System-8 in action in this demo using presets from the System-8, Jupiter-8 & Juno-106 Plug-Outs. Most were tweaked. I used my Korg Kronos to send one MIDI track to the Roland System-8 at a time. Then I took each .WAV stem and used my favorite DAW Ableton LIVE to put it all together with light Reverb.

"Songs were recorded live. Multitracked into a DAW. Lightly edited. Gear on this album includes some analog poly synths, such as Roland JX-3P and Juno 106. Yamaha DX7 is present and so is a Novation Summit. I used some of my eurorack modular as well. A jomox Alphabase is a culprit in some of the trax."

Ambient jam with the Dreadbox Nymphes, Tasty Chips GR-1, Strymon NightSky, and Empress Reverb

video upload by Jay Hosking

"A live, semi-improvised track performed entirely on hardware.

Dreadbox was kind enough to send along the Nymphes a little early to me, and I couldn't have been more excited. While I have the Abyss, I've been hoping for a new Dreadbox polysynth that's more widely available for a long time.

And the Nymphes doesn't disappoint. It's unbelievably small but with a super sturdy build and great fader throw lengths. It has a lot of secondary functions but it's dead easy to navigate, and still feels more hands-on than the Dreadbox Typhon (another great small synth). And most importantly of all, it has a beautiful sound with tons of character and some great particular nooks and crannies in its timbres. A warm analog polysynth the size of a paperback book? I love it.

I've also got lots to say on the Tasty Chips GR-1, but I'm planning to do a video with it in the near future, so more then. Suffice it to say for now that I love it and that it's a perfect companion for ambient work.

Dreadbox Nymphes through Strymon NightSky — Main synth
Tasty Chips GR-1 through Empress Reverb — Ambient granular goodness
Arturia Keystep — MIDI controller for the Nymphes

Performed and recorded live, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master."

"EML synths have finally garnered the respect they deserve in recent years. They have an incredible tone all their own and I regularly reach for an EML where a Moog or Arp doesn't fit the bill. This portable patchable synth has tons of possibilities in a compact and package. The layout is clean and well thought out. EML designs are sonically rich and user friendly."

New Landscape NOON 8 Channel Powerless Instrument

via Landscape (demos on site) Overview✺

WHO❀ Noon

WHAT❈ An 8 channel powerless instrument which is activated and modulated using voltage from external sequencers.

HOW✷ Analog circuits are powered momentarily by incoming gate and control voltage signals causing them to oscillate and breath naturally. When these circuits are linked together they can grow, inform and process one another in complex rhythmic ways.

WHY❃ This technique increases the unstable properties of analog circuits, causing increased organic textures and movement. The simple controls are provided to ensure immediacy and access to rapidly alter sounds and movement without patching.

WHERE✾ The simplicity of the interface was designed with live performance in mind. The number of internal and external variables (control voltage types, linked channel behavior plus external audio input) create lots of room for studio exploration.

WHEN✻ We plan to have pre-orders open by end of January 2022

IN-DEPTH✹

NOON is a passive analog drum/synthesizer. Each of the eight channels uses a unique analog circuit with its own characteristics. No power supply is needed. Each circuit is triggered and powered individually from incoming gates or control voltages provided by voltage sequencers or modular systems. By using this unique method, we can increase instability and magnify organic aspects of traditional analog electronic instruments. The sound of analog, at its core, is the sound of sculpted electricity. By removing the stabilizing elements of a constant power source, we can listen to the sound of electronic circuits loading and unloading, powering up and powering down, and we can increase the natural chaotic movement of electricity. The loading of circuits creates natural ways to access swing and groove or ways to deconstruct a programmed rhythm sequence to make surprisingly new ideas.

Each channel is represented by a tuning fork. Incoming voltage can be thought of as a way to “strike” each fork with momentary voltage. Between every channel there are Link buttons which allow voltage sharing between channels. Linking them provides a wide mix of results depending on incoming voltage, active or inactive channels, slider settings, gate lengths and multichannel linking. The results can be described as cross modulation, growth (creating a larger and more complex circuit), or processing (filtering, distortion). Due to the cycles of voltage and this inherent instability, a definition of what is actually occurring between channels can be hard to pin down. The eight Mod buttons, which are located at the bottom of each tuning fork, change the behavior and sound of each circuit. The eight latching CV buttons along the top allow the “☾” Even and “❍” Odd CV modulation inputs to route to even and odd channels. When incoming CV is unmuted, a channel’s behavior can change drastically and this behavior can change further when channels are linked. These CV inputs are a way to add microtonal pitch changes and/or large textural movement to voices. The Even and Odd CV inputs are summed to their respective channels to provide a rhythmic modulation reference between multiple channels. ⏚

"Polyphonic analogue synthesizer that needs no introduction. But the tone… the richness… the ease with which wonderful sounds emerge from it… (OK, that’s a small introduction).

Freshly overhauled including a new spring in the ribbon controller. It will undergo further calibration and testing before we ship; our head synth tech James Walker has worked on many CS synths and this one plays wonderfully and sounds superb.

Compared to its larger relation, these travel much better and don’t tend to require work after shipping."

VGM #197: Tarrey Town (Breath of the Wild) Ft. RichaadEB, Soundole, Curious Quail, & Josiah Everhart

video upload by Amie Waters

"I dreamt up this cover three years ago and it took me three years to finally gather all my friends and make it happen. If you don't know the cool thing about Tarrey Town from BotW, you have to find people around the world to move into this lonely town, and as new people join, the music for the town changes and gets more upbeat and exciting. Each member brings their own sounds and energy to the track until finally it all comes together when all four new residents have arrived, so I got four friends together to represent each new person moving in and we made a cover together. I think its real special, and a great way to bring this Zelda Month project to a close.

With this marks the end of Zelda Month for me. I've been doing this project for seven straight years, and I am ready for it to come to a close. This doesn't mean I am done covering Zelda music forever, just that now I am free to cover songs from the series whenever, not just in November. Maybe someday it will make a return, but for now I am very happy to end this final Zelda Month with such a celebration of friendship and joy. I have made so many incredible friendships over the last seven years, and it was an absolute joy to bring some of those wonderful people together for the grand finale and make something greater than the sum of its parts. There is a magic that only comes with collaboration, and I think this song so wonderfully captures that. 2021 was a difficult year for me, but even when things are rough, music and friends can bring so much joy into the darkness. I wanted to capture that hope, that joy in the face of darkness and share it with everyone. I hope you enjoyed this, and all the many Zelda songs I have covered over the years. I will be releasing a complete collection of Zelda music in early 2022. Thank you all for sticking with me through all these years.

Door #23: Morgen kommt der Weihnachtsmann (Santa’s Coming Tomorrow) - Synthmas '21

video upload by

"The song:
This songs lyrics wrote none other than Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben who wrote among many other well known poems the German anthem. The melody appeared first in 1761 in France and was adapted by W. A. Mozart as base melody for his Piano Variations KV 265.

The gear:
Here my other Casio 'synth', the PT-1 comes into play. This successor of the legendary VL-1 got 4 instruments (Piano, Fantasy, Strings, Flute) and a rhythm section that is most notable for it's appearance in German Neue Deutsche Welle band Trio's track "Da Da Da". This is my very first synth I got as a present in the late 80s. Notice the Alf sticker that make this unit a unique one. I did a multi track recoring using my Boss RC-202 loop station. The tone signal is passed through the Zoom MS70 CDR effect unit adding some reverb, chorus, pitch and phaser.
