Two "Roger That" pedals & the joy of dirty bass in stereo (no talk)


video upload by Richard DeHove

"Any discussion about an interesting mono pedal will eventually devolve to: 'If only pedal X was in stereo'. To which some production savant will quickly reply "Just buy two!". Can it really be so simple?

Here we have a DB-01 running through the most excellent Boss GEB-7 bass EQ, then into a simple line splitter for the left and right "Roger That" pedals from Fairfield Circuitry, and finally into the Future Factory stereo delay from Free the Tone. No DAW audio processing.

There are 10 short audio examples. Each to their own but I'm now a convert to dirty stereo bass. Even when the two units are closely matched there are differences which no mono-only modulation can give.
Next time I'll try the two Rogers on some drums :)

0:00 Machine bass
1:22 Acid runner
2:33 Doom keys
3:37 Industrial drone
4:11 Fuzzy square
6:34 Poker echo
7:02 Sharpy arp
7:42 Two step
8:40 Fully rogered
9:12 The Scraper

Albers - CV inputs Pt 1


video upload by DecadeBridge

"The version of Albers available to customers has a few more features than the one in this video including:- LFO outputs.
LDRs can be switched to control Oscillator pitch or LFO rate.
3 way range switch for Oscillator pitch instead of 2.

This is a quick demo of using Albers with the Keystep Pro. Only a few of the Keystep's outputs are used. Check the timestamps for repatching of the outputs from the Keystep to different inputs on Albers.

Albers - Stepped tone generator: [posted here]

Albers - solo: [posted here]

Patching/Repatching:-
00:14 - Patch - Keystep Track 2 Pitch to Oscillator A Pitch.

Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave - One Sequenced Multi Patch


video upload by Scott McAuley Sounds

"Patches will be available at https://www.orano.co.uk/shop or http://www.synthsounds.co.uk

I'm still in the learning phase of the 3rd Wave, and have to admit this thing is huge, Yes the PPG Waves are great, but coupled with the VA side of things it is remarkable, the Dave Rossum designed 2140 analog low-pass filter is simply stunning and I believe is the same filter used in the P5/10 Rev4.

this Patch is called - 'SM Uplift Seq'

All sounds in this are one multi patch, each of the 4 parts sequenced separately,
Part 1 - Main Synth Pluck,
Part 2 - Rythmic Digi Pluck
Part 3 - Res Pad
Part 4 - Kick

Anyway, thought I'd do my usual, and fire out some patch examples as I go :)

Enjoy.

Nadia Struiwigh - live at SUPERBOOTH23


video upload by Superbooth Berlin

"Nadia Struiwigh is all about energy when she plays. Her own energy, the energy of the crowd, and the energy of any given space are what determine where she goes. She likes to get people into a bubble and to keep them there, to play to the weirdos in the dark corners of a room, and to thread together sounds that connect with people’s everyday emotions. Whether that’s with techno, ambient or experimental depends on what she feels at any given time.

When playing live, the Dutch artist feels detached from her consciousness and instead rides on her own inner flow. She shares stories that are based on her own memories and inspiration. Once translated into sound, they become narratives that take listeners deep into their own psyche. However, Nadia is also a technical nerd that deeply analyses everything she does, and so by now can truly convey herself through her synthesizers.

Electrocomp EML-101 Synthesizer EML-400 Sequencer Meticulously Refurbished by Tone Tweakers


video upload by tonetweakers

"We buy, restore and sell EML and other vintage synths. This EML-101 is for sale. It has just received an extensive overhaul to make it work like new again and will hopefully outlast all others you may find. This particular EML-400 has been sold and is undergoing final testing before shipping (we test all gear systematically, multiple times here so our loyal customers get what they pay for!) but we have another full version with the synth section for sale on our website. Programmed by @jaywires (who you should also follow)."

"fully serviced and beautiful example of a vintage ARP Odyssey MkII from 1976/77.

Comes with manual, addendum, and dust cover.

This machine plays, sounds, and looks great is ready for another 40 years. You wont be disappointed in this Odyssey. To me, the Odyssey is "the" ARP to play; it can slice thru mixes, modulate into the stratosphere one minute and the next its adding a gentle duophonic richness to your mix. I had a Pro-One for years and dug that, and this goes the places the Pro-One does, with *two* notes of old school analog richness. To my ear the new Karp units don't sound as good as the old ones. This Odyssey has a fixed 4075 filter that gives all the high-end as you'd expect.

This one is in like-new in tip-top shape with service including:

All new keyboard bushings, lubrication and adjustments that make it play like a champ

All electrolytic caps have been replaced on all boards and power supply

All new sliders to replace working, but somewhat finicky originals"

SP-404mkII + GAIA 2 "A bit of you" a song by gattobus


video upload by gattobus

"SP-404mkII is a new entry in my setup. It's my first sampler since I sold my Octatrack 4 years ago.
I started sampling some phrases, playing some of my favorite presets on GAIA 2 and then I rearranged everything, chopping, slicing and rearranging everything using the internal SP-404 mkII sequencer.

Everything was very easy and intuitive, and this song came out by itself!
It was a very fun and creative process!"

See the dealers on the right for availability.



The STEREO FX module brings hi-fi stereo effects into the Erica Synths Drum Series. Based on our new DSP engine, the module provides a wide range of custom delay and reverb effects. CV control over various parameters and the ability to save up to 10 presets will make this module an integral part of any performance rack.

Features
Hi-Fi stereo FX module
3 delay and 3 reverb effects
Tap and clock synchronization of delay time
Delay time divisions and multiplications in sync mode
10 preset patches
CV control over delay time, feedback, and preset selection

RRP 270 EUR | MAP 329 USD



As its name suggests, the Erica Synths DJ VCF STEREO module provides sound treatment functionality typically found on DJ decks – it is fully open when the cutoff knob is at 12:00. When turned counter-clockwise, lowpass filtering is applied and when turned clockwise, highpass filtering is initiated. Additionally, there is a nice-sounding, adjustable resonance parameter. This provides hands-on control over the sound during performances as well as unconventional timbre modulations that are hard to achieve with conventional state variable filters.

Features
Fully analogue stereo DJ-style VCF
Manual cutoff and resonance control
Two cutoff CV inputs, one with an attenuverter

RRP 180 EUR | MAP 219 USD

"2 Voltage-controlled Oscillators per voice is expensive, especially in the vintage market!
