Audiothingies MicroMonsta 2 - Overview and Sound Design


video upload by Andre Bregegere

"The MicroMonsta 2 is a small-but-mighty desktop synthesizer by @audiothingies . In this video, I give a brief overview of the device's functionality and user interface, then explore factory presets, make a patch from scratch, and look at my own user presets.

This video is an overview, and is in no way meant as an exhaustive review—I left a lot of more advanced features unaddressed (e.g., MPE, Wavetables, PWM, Filter Mod, Bitimbral/Combi modes).

Also, Please not that I bought this device with my own funds, and bear no relation whatsoever with the manufacturer (Audiothingies). The opinions expressed in this video are mine.

Sequential Prophet 5/10 rev 4 | Sound Bank Demos


video uploads by Synth Universe

"In this video I play original sounds created for the Prophet 5/10 rev 4 synthesizer. I demo patches 1 - 20 from the Synth Universe Prophet 5/10 rev 4 Sound bank: a bank of 80 patches containing a wide range of pads, strings, brass, poly synths, keys, bass, leads, tuned percussion and sines.

Each patch is demonstrated first raw in mono, as output straight from the synth. For the majority of the patches I then repeat the demo but with stereo and reverb or delay applied, so you can hear the sounds more like they would be in a musical context. Please refer to the other three videos for demos of sounds 21 - 80. The time stamps below mean you can easily access specific sounds in this video and compare MONO with STEREO.

Buy this sound bank here: https://synthuniverse.sellfy.store/pr...

In the making of this video no chorus, modulation or thickening effects were used (software or hardware). The only effects used were reverb (mainly the Valhalla Vintage Verb plugin) or delay (Logic native delay plugin). No EQ was used to enhance either the low end or the high end.

The Prophet 5/10 has a single mono audio output, so to create a stereo image I used old-school layering in my DAW. When I recorded each audio take, I also captured MIDI data and used this to record new tracks of the original take. Using the Vintage knob on the Prophet set at 3 means that each MIDI take has subtle differences in pitch, envelopes and filter. Panning and slight detuning of the tracks creates, to my ears, a nice rich stereo image and retains the core sound.

2/5/24 (atmospheric river range combinations) ElectroComp EML 200 (x2) + Langevin Filter + CXM 1978


video upload by Cfpp0

"Two ElectroComp EML 200 synthesizers are cross-patched, and their master oscillator ranges are adjusted, which affects both samplers, the envelopes, etc. The bottom EML 200 runs through a passive Langevin filter, panned left, high passing. The Chase Bliss & Meris CXM 1978 is set to a delayed reverb, with the reverb increased towards the end. Also used a Synthesizers.com Q124 mult."

Juicy filters! Mask1 sound design & improvisation on BETA firmware


video upload by Kodamo

"Chill improvisation on the Mask1, beta V3.3 firmware (to be released soon!)
The new 256 masks (512 total) provide even more harmonics, and the filter is happy with that! I also use the built-in delay and arp in the second part of this video. All sounds direct from the Mask1 without processing."

UBXa vs OBX8 // 2 modern takes on the OBXa


video upload by Starsky Carr

Note the OB-X8 actually has all three OB's, the OB-X, OB-Xa, and OB-8. So three in one that can be mixed and matched. See https://oberheim.com for more info.

"Behringer vs Oberheim - if you're looking for a modern recreation of the OBxa the cost difference between these 2 synths is quite something... but what about the sound? Functionally UBXa and OBX8 have different options. The Behringer has a Mod Matrix and sequencer, but the Oberheim has an OBX and cross mod for example.

But here, I'm concentrating on the raw OBXa sound emulation. ... and FYI:

Cambridge Dictionary meaning of emulation in English
'the process of copying something achieved by someone else and trying to do it as well as they have'

so yes I've called them emulations :)

via this auction

Never seen one of these before. This appears to be the first one featured on the site. Not finding any demos on YouTube. From the listing:

"Built in Sweden around 2005, this modular synth is one of a kind and as far as I know is the only one in existence hence Serial No.1.

The synth sounds amazing super clean and pulsating when I used to pair this up with 2 of my Orgon Enigisers using the MCv4 midi to CV converter. The modular has had light use pre covid and has had little use, I’m the 2nd owner."

"Original Korg PS-3300 from 1977, only a few were made. Korg is going to reissue this model, but this is the real thing. Aimed to collectors at collectors' prioce, if you are a musician you´d probably better wait for the reissue at reissues' prices. The last we know was sold at this same price, so that's the starting point."

"This was a rescue that needed a lot of work. Synth works and sounds great now. Has cosmetic wear to the faceplate, see photos. No circuit modifications were performed, everything was left as it was.

Work performed:

-Full power supply recap (Nichicon electrolytics)

-All solder joints reflowed on every single board (this actually restored full electronic functionality)

-New Alpha brand 10K power/volume potentiometer switch (Original broken)

-All pots, switches, and faders fully flushed out with contact cleaner and followed up with DeOxit Faderlube as needed

-New knobs (Originals missing)

-New fader caps (Originals missing)

-Keybed removed and fully disassembled and inspected, keys ultrasonically cleaned (needed no repairs or adjustments, was just very dirty)

-New 2-prong power cable properly soldered in (no splices or twist caps)

-New custom-cut unfinished birch ply side panels from Send Cut Send (originals were heavily damaged/broken, hole alignment isn't perfect, still looks good, finish them in the stain/color of your choice)

-New black 3D printed keyboard side trim pieces (designed them myself in CAD, originals were heavily damaged/broken)

-New 3D printed Korg badge on back (Designed myself in CAD, original one was missing)"

Function Suite - MaxforLive Devices for Ableton Live by Ned RUSH


video uploads by Isotonik Studios

"Functions are a suite of “sound transformers” that use a breakpoint function editor to apply modulation to the sound. Different from many standard audio effects with built in modulation capabilities like LFO’s or envelope generators, the Function allows you to draw in complex custom modulation shapes or multi-stage envelopes, which can then be indexed using a variety of signals, producing linear and non-linear modulations, designed to create interesting forms of movement.

Teenage Engineering EP-133 P.O.II First Jam


video upload by Perplex On

"Couldn’t resist to give the #ep133KOII a chance. This is my very first jam and i‘m sure i still have a lot to learn on this machine. Everything here comes from the machine with onboard samples. My first impression:
.
Plus: Very immediate, great haptics, love the design, great onboard samples
.
Minus: No punch-in fx recording (which was present on all orignal PO‘s), No individual step lengths (only length of total bars afaik, so no polyrhythmic adventures).
.
Oh and btw if you wonder why the fader looks weird: They added this piece of plastic around it in order to avoid transport damage but it is sooooo tight i couldn’t even get it off. 😕"

Exploring the Cosmic Beauty of the Elgam Carousel


video upload by HAINBACH

"Form changes function - the Elgam Carousel first appeared as part of a big organ. Elgam quickly realized that they could a make a standalone product out of this, for the more mobile musicians entertaining crowds at business and family functions. They set a trend - CRB and Elka followed with the Computerband 2000 and Wilgamat. These standalone keyboards can be called the first groove boxes. In this video I demo this cosmic sounding wonder and show real world applications in scoring.

The Eternal Now


video upload by davidryle

"American Format (5U) modular synthesizer performance in real time to a stereo track in Cubase.
For an atonal wash I used the Dove Audio Waveplane and WTF vco's through an Oakley Sound Systems Ring Modulator. I then sent it through A dotcom Q150 transistor ladder filter and a Lower West Side Studio Multimode Filter/Resonator and on to a fixed filter bank and a Frequency Central Stasis Leak digital delay. This drone wash comes in at the final section and ending.
The opening reed sound and accompanying organ sounds were derived from the Synthetic Sound Labs/Mutable Instruments (Braids) Woven Spirits module.
The initial reed sound is from the AUX output of the Woven Spirits through an SSL/Ian Fritz 5 Pulser and Oakley Sound Systems State Variable Filter. The filter is stepped with a random S&H from JNP Electronics.
The secondary organ chord sound is the Main direct output of the Woven Spirits in Chord mode. The combination of both elements are sent to an Electro-Harmonix Grand Canyon in DMM mode. Feedback is applied as needed for the drone sustain throughout the piece.
The bass line comes in next with a pair of STG Soundlabs Oscillators through a Dove Audio D502 Multimode filter in -24dB LP mode. The pitch voltage is from the upper Q960 step sequencer. It's timing is from a Catgirl Synth Master Divider, clocked from a custom Dual LFO/Analog Shift Register of Ken Stone (Catgirl Synth) design. An additional tap from the STG oscillator through a Corsynth C103 Frequency Divider/Multiplier module for a sub-octave feed.
The melodic line blended into the latter section is from a pair of Q106 dotcom vco's which are pitch controlled by the lower Q960 sequencer. Each vco pitch is from a separate row of the Q960. The Q960's shift timing is from the CGS Master Divider module. The output is routed through an Empress Reverb pedal in Blue Ghost mode. Panning is from the LWSS/Yusynth Panning Mixer.
All pitch quantitization is through a Moon Modular 565 series setup.
Additional voltage modulation to the Woven Spirits module are from the STG Soundlabs voltage mini stores, and vaious LFO's etc. Timing for the additional sequencers is also managed by the Moster Divider."
