Still - Ambient Jam

"Relaxing with the mini-skiff, OP1+Microcosm and Seaboard and playing a little tune.
Good speakers or headphones capable of delivering bass recommended."

2/27/24 Yamaha CS-30 + Roland RE-301 + CXM 1978


video upload by Cfpp0

"This Yamaha CS-30 had an issue with the keyboard glitching from time to time, but has just been serviced and is working great, and now on North American power. The CS-30 sequencer is set to six steps. VCO 1 is set to SEQ and VCO 2 is set to KBD. The 1 output and the 2 output are hard-panned in the Mackie 1640, while the 1&2 output goes to the Roland RE-301 Chorus Echo, panned center. Some Chase Bliss & Meris CXM 1978 reverb fills out the stereo field as well."

This Setup Has All You Need to Make Great Music


video upload by EZBOT

"In today's episode of Electron Talk, we take a look at the Octatrack, Digitakt, and Syntakt from both a music production and live performance perspective. Each of these three grooveboxes designed by Elektron is impressive on its own, but together, they offer unique features that complement each other's strengths and fill in the gaps where one may lack. However, they don't cover all the areas comprehensively, do they? That's where instruments like a vocal processor and a convenient polysynth come into the mix. Today, we will create techno from scratch, discuss sound design, and share our favorite gear for music production."

Coron DS-8 Percussion & Drum Synth


video upload by xu.sounddesign - dirk rohde

"The Coron DS-8 'Percussion & Drum Synth' is from the 1980's and was a portable drum synthesizer unit to be attached to a drum kit's snare drum to enhance the player's kit with modern sounds of it's time. The unit contains one VCO and a noise generator that generates white or pink noise and mixed with the balance control giving the instrument.

The oscillator features a sweepable range with a dedicated knob. There is an envelope that offers decay only and an LFO with Rate intensity. The unit is triggering by snare hits but could also be triggered from other vibrations or from a foot switch or audio source."

The Return of a Eurorack Classic // Ultra Random Redux by Steady State Fate


video upload by DivKid

"Here we have the return of what I think is fair to say a Eurorack classic. The Ultra Random Redux is a new version of the 2014 release, the Ultra Random Analog. It’s a powerful and flexible random voltage generator and processor for both audio and CV applications.

Throughout the video I’ll go through each section and feature with musical examples that will show you how you can use these features and apply these things to your systems, whether specifically with the Ultra Random Redux or just applying these patch ideas with things you already have. Give them a try and let me know how you get on in the comments."

Dire Straits & Yamaha DX7


video upload by Espen Kraft

"Dire Straits 'Brothers In Arms' from 1985 had a lot of synths in it. Digital synths like the Yamaha DX7 and Synclavier were utilized a lot on that album.

I'm using both the DX7s and the TX802 in this video. The first string patch uses the low strings from the TX802 while the high "tremolo" strings are coming from the DX7s. Throughout the video the patches are evenly divided between these two synths. Except for the first 'Brothers in arms' string sound, no sound is layered.
Chorus and reverb are used on some of the patches.
With careful programming the DX7 can sound very lush and slick, even for string- and pad sounds. The last two patches, where I play freestyle (not Dire Straits chords)are such examples.
Both these two patches are edited from the first string patch I show in this video.

All the patches in this video were made by a guy known as Hedge777 or ElectronicSupersonic [video below]

I will not send his sysex patches to anyone so don't bother asking me. Ask him yourself.

Yamaha CS50 - the most underrated synth! Famous Presets & Programming


video upload by Andy Whitmore



"Recorded at Greystoke Studio - Dry. Feb 2024

The CS-50 was released just ahead of its famous big brothers, the CS-60 and CS-80. The CS-50 looks like a scaled-down version of the monstrous CS-80, and it is! This will benefit those who crave the famous classic Yamaha synth sound without the struggle of lugging around the 215 pound CS-80!

The CS-50 weighs in at about 100 pounds. The CS-50 is also just 4-voice polyphonic, and lacks the quality weighted 61-note keyboard of the CS-80. The CS-50 has just a 49-note standard keyboard. It does feature pressure (aftertouch) sensitivity route-able to several destinations, however.

The CS-50's sound is unmistakably related to other classic CS-series synthesizers. At just four voices with one osc. per voice and lacking warm filters (at just 12dB/oct) the CS-50's sound can be thin.

There are 13 preset sounds of various instruments and synth sounds but, unfortunately, no on-board memory storage for your edited presets. At its low street price, the CS-50 makes a great way to get your hands on these classic sounds without going broke! It's too bad their tuning is just as unstable as the other CS-series synths.

It's housed in a built-in travel-case like the other (big) CS-synths. It's been used by Men Without Hats and Herbie Hancock.

1977 – 1980.

Watch me bring that sound back to life!🎹🕺 "

Tiptop Audio Officially Releases ART Line of Eurorack Modules


via Tiptop Audio

"Today, we are celebrating the release of the first set of ART-equipped modules, marking the first time this technology is ready for purchase. We are starting with the release of the ATX1 Analog VCO, Vortex Digital OSC, Octopus USB/MIDI interface, ART V/OCT Quantizer, and Control Path dual analog envelopes plus VCA.

On our website, we have dedicated the ART landing page as the knowledge base HQ for ART. There, you will find plenty of educational videos, module video manuals, and uploaded video playlists of music filmed during beta testing. ART is simple to use and easy to understand, and with those videos, we made sure all aspects and potential misinformation have been addressed. Additionally, more information is in the process of being added in the coming days for both DIY enthusiasts and module makers on how to implement ART, including a free reference design that adds ART to Mutable Instruments Braids and Plaits.

The creative process of making music on a modular synthesizer is a unique tactile and aural experience. With ART modules, we are entering the territory of tunable instruments and polyphonic multi-timbral compositions but with the sound design power and immediate interface of a modular synthesizer. The initial release focuses on the mono VCOs that you can use to build voices quickly or combine for discrete polyphony. Very soon, we will extend the lineup with the fully polyphonic ART modules and the release of the Polytip patch cable."

ATX1

A classic all analog saw VCO core with 3 switchable modes, ART, 1V/Oct, LFO and is recommended as the basic building block for ART systems. It is designed for patching analog polyphonic synths from discrete modules or multi-mono patches in ART mode. When using ART the ATX1 takes care of the tuning including accounting for temperature changes. In 1V/Oct mode the ATX1 runs as a standard old school modular VCO. LFO mode drops the frequency range and is great for patching vibrato to other ATX1s among other things. The ATX1 outputs variable waveshapes with manual or CV control. Classic FM, PWM and hard sync are provided. A dedicated Gate Out in ART mode manages the voice envelopes or any modulation synced to that voice. We consider the ATX1 the best sounding analog VCO we ever created.
