"Beat Loop Manipulation Week
April 4, 2023

Beat loops are the bedrock of electronic music and the backbone of hip-hop. For decades, they’ve significantly influenced the development and intersection of other genres and subgenres including dance, pop, R&B, and reggaeton.

The primitive beat loop was created by manipulating tape, but the advent of digital technology has propelled this art into a new dimension. Modern beat magic isn’t simply chopping, splicing, reversing, and looping – it involves altering sound elements to create unique rhythmic patterns. With advanced software and high-quality tools, musicians and producers can create intricate, layered beats once unimaginable.

Bop along as we dive into a week of beat loop manipulation using Soundtoys effects and get inspired to contribute to the ever-evolving sound of contemporary music:

The New King of Semi-Modular // Pittsburgh Modular Taiga


video upload by Jorb

"All in all, this is such a dope product. oscillators this flexible, with a filter and the dynamics controller immediately the sound palette crosses so many conventional boundaries. I am hooked on the idea of getting multiple voices out of this as a self contained unit, but even without patching this just slaps.

Pittsburgh has got a banger on their hands.

SH-4d // Has Roland Perfected Portable Sound Design?


video upload by Jorb

"The SH4d in my interpretation, is a synthesis sound module first and foremost. The sequencer is really not positioned to be the main draw. It didnt get mentioned much on camera, but to be sure my thoughts aren't lost; I would really love unquantized recording, a note scale mode, and the arpeggiator to stay held while I move between parts. Any other complaints were aired in the video.

Taking a step back, that I can use AA batteries or the same charger as my phone to power this very capable instrument could be enough of a sell, but lucky for us it also sounds really good.

*Resonance Mod* Vintage Roland Jupiter 6 Synthesizer SN 354171

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


via this auction

"What makes this a bit different and more special than the run of the mill JP-6 is that I had purchased this off a fellow synth junky and mad scientist who had done a resonance mod to the VCF, which basically stops the filter bass frequencies from getting dropped so much when resonance increases. In the general sense, it sounds a lot better. It doesn't change the character of the filter at all, aside from stopping it from getting wheezy when even the slightest bit of resonance is added. I've had a lot of folks who sold their JP-6 come over to the studio and say that they don't remember theirs ever 'sounding that good'."

Moog Minimoog Model D classic vintage analog monophonic synthesizer

via this auction

"The king of synthesizers. Original Moog Minimoog, I believe this is from 1974. Used sparingly in smoke-free / pet-free studio.

Professionally refurbished / gone through in May 2021, the tech replaced the old frail cable/plug with a modern standard IEC power jack in the back, replaced a transistor and checked all operations. All the rest was good.

Everything works great on it and of course it sounds absolutely huge, fat, analog and glorious."

Original Slate Blue Waldorf Q Keyboard

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


via this auction

"This is a true classic from Waldorf. It's known as possibly the best VA synth ever made (kills the MS2000, JP8000, etc etc) but also has those classic German wavetables for that PPG style. Multiple filters, egs, etc etc. 4 part multi-timbral. It can do so much but I have too much stuff and more on the way so this has to go. The original Q was a terrible, bright yellow monstrosity but this is the beautiful, rare version that is now known as the Halloween version."

Cherry Audio Memorymode - Sound Bank '79


video upload by Polydata

"Drawing from the earliest days of polyphonic synthesizers, Sound Bank ‘79 for the Cherry Audio Memorymode finds its inspiration in synthesizer music found in documentaries and library music from the late 70’s and early 80’s.

A bank comprising 40 patches for instant inspiration. The goal was to squeeze as much vintage analog juice out of this plug-in as possible, primarily working within the constraints of the original Moog Memorymoog analog poly synth. There's a unique richness to the sound of a Memorymoog, along with it's expanded feature set, and Cherry Audio have definitely captured that.

Sound Bank '79 is a series of vintage tones for different synths and plug-ins, so look out for future releases. Recorded completely dry with no external effects or processing.
