NINA SESSIONS featuring DANIEL MOUGERMAN, ANGUS RADLEY & GRAEME POGSON


video upload by

https://www.melbourneinstruments.com/

"Welcome to the second instalment of NINA SESSIONS, featuring Melbourne-based musicians Daniel Mougerman (The Bamboos, Kylie Auldist, Ella Thompson), Angus Radley (Bermuda), and Graeme Pogson (GL, The Bamboos, Kylie Auldist, Bermuda). Once again we have two NINAs in the mix, but this time the second NINA serves primarily as Synth Bass, complimenting the lead synth and Graeme on drums, Simmons and MPC. The MOOG Subsequent 37 and NORD Stage you see in this clip are being used as controllers/keyboards only. All sounds (except percussion) are from the two NINAs. Nina is a Desktop Synth module, and requires a USB or MIDI keyboard for performance.

This session features two songs - the first, 'Swimming' is an original composition by Mougerman, Pogson & Radley, written exclusively for this recording and features Graeme on live drums. The second tune is 'Textures', composed by Herbie Hancock for his 1980 'Mr. Hands' album, and was selected by the band as a piece they thought was a great opportunity to showcase Nina. For this tune it's programmed drums from from the MPC5000, along with miscellaneous percussion from Graeme. Both songs use a mix of factory presets, and the artist's own presets/sound design.

Both tunes were recorded live at Swimming Pool Studio in North Fitzroy over a single afternoon session. 'Swimming' is almost 100% live with no overdubs aside from minor percussion, and minimal post production. 'Textures' features minor overdubbing recorded with NINA in a later post production / mixdown session. Post production and mastering has been kept minimal to give a true representation of NINA's sound and range.

ABOUT NINA:
NINA is the world’s first fully motorized analog synthesizer. Synth players have dreamt of this feature for decades, and now it’s finally available. Instantly recall your presets and layers, see exactly how the sound was created, or pick up from where you were last working. Musicians, Producers & Sound Designers can finally enjoy the flexibility of Soft Synth control from a real, physical instrument.

NINA SESSIONS featuring CLOSE COUNTERS


video upload by Melbourne Instruments

https://www.melbourneinstruments.com/

"Melbourne Instruments’ NINA SESSIONS are a chance for us to show off our Nina Synthesizer, and also an opportunity for us to showcase some of Melbourne’s incredible musical talent. For our first Nina Session, we are excited to present local Melbourne duo, CLOSE COUNTERS performing original tunes from their latest album, ‘SOULACOASTA II’.

We asked Close Counters to choose some of their songs that they thought would be interesting to play on Nina. It was their idea to use two Ninas, and create a live improvised rendition of their song 'BREAK FROM IT' using only Ninas, their Nord Stage keys and a TR-8S drum machine. The above video is entirely live with no overdubs or additional effects. There has been minimal mastering and post production to the final mix, giving you a very true indication of Nina's sound and sonic palette.

For this performance, the duo use a number or factory and custom presets to shape the sounds, and both Finn and Allan are using different multitimbral keyboard splits throughout the song. You’ll see some heavy manipulation of the filter as you watch closely, along with a lot of ’morphing using Nina’s A/B morph feature. Nina’s morph allows you to move between two predetermined patches, smoothly blending every parameter of the two patches, including all modulation and effects. Morph allows performers and sound designers to virtually adjust just about everything with only one knob, making it possible to do what otherwise would take many hands, and even many keyboards.

If you like this video, we'll have more NINA SESSIONS coming soon. Up next we have a special Melbourne trio consisting of Daniel Mougerman (The Bamboos, Kylie Auldist, Ella Thompson), Angus Radley (Harvey Sutherland/Bermuda), and Graeme Pogson (The Bamboos, GL, Bermuda). Watch this space

NINA SYNTH; Curated Out of the Box Performance video upload by Airhaert

"Hey! This is a shortened version with sections that I've edited together to sound like one entire performance! The original goes through a lot more presets and has more stops in between (as I am changing the presets)."

"Made some more presets. Enjoying the tones of this beast. Not quite an OBX but a high quality sound. Still working out levels recording on my camera, so not the best render, there is hiss from adding volume to video, the synth is dead quiet. Looking forward to a manual and more developments on the OS."

Prophet Rev2 With Strymon Big Sky & Meris Mercury 7 | AMBIENT PADS


video upload by Le Code

"The prophet Rev2 is a powerful pad machine: with a few chords, I play with the filter. Two reverbs are added: the Strymon Big Sky is set to a shimmer-type preset, while the Meris Mercury 7 adds spatial reverb to the whole, and gives fullness to this ambient jam.

"The Prophet Rev2 is still amazing at producing beautiful ambient pads, and if you add the Mercury 7 pedal from Meris, you literally fly into space! 🪐
On this video, I show you Prophet Rev2 ambient pads with Meris Mercury 7 pedal.

Iota // Ambient 1 (Sequential Prophet X)


video upload by Mai

"Ambient/cinematic music on the Sequential Prophet X synthesizer. Played through the Elektron Analog Heat MKII for a little warmth/saturation.

This version of Iota is on the album Beta, released 8th December 2023: https://wormholeworld.bandcamp.com/al..."

Nu // Ambient 5 (Prophet 6, Prophet 12, Minitaur, Mono Lancet '15, Keystep Pro)

video upload by Mai

"This version of Nu is on the album Beta, released 8th December 2023: https://wormholeworld.bandcamp.com/al...

Besides deciding on a scale and having an idea of the notes to play for each instrument, this was improvised. It was also unquantized and played in free time. I switched each sequence into 'Walk' mode, which is semi-random and adds an element of chance in terms of how the 4 sequences will interact."

Digitakt, Prophet 6, Prophet 12 Sessions


video upload by Mai

"A lot of improvisation on this one.
No mixing desk, the Prophet 6 and Prophet 12 went through the internal mixer and effects of the Digitakt.
Only factory samples were used on the Digitakt.
The output of the Digitakt was recorded into Logic Pro X via an A Designs Pacifica preamp and Apogee Duet 2 audio interface (with preamps bypassed)"

Mutineer Synthesizer Demo - Tone Generator Span & Wavetable Editing


video upload by René Feuerlein

"In this demonstration of my synthesizer software programming project Mutineer, I am showing briefly showing a Tone Generator's capability to Span waveform over to the next Tone Generator, as in a Wavetable synth. Also I am briefly showing some of the wavetable waveform editing tools. I then add a lowpass resonance filter, a Chorus plus a Delay effect module, and later include a second Tone Generator, on which I also edit its waveform. The final result is a dreamy pad sound."

Het Concreet Scanner 2023


video upload by

"In November 2023, I joined the team at Het Concreet in Tilburg, The Netherlands for a week long residency.

Het Concreet is a Dutch sound collective dedicated to finding new sounds by experimenting with analog electronic devices, magnetic tape and acoustics. Their analogue ambitions are rooted in their studio space, where they seek to find new meanings of sound by working with techniques that have become largely obsolete in today’s world. Their main instrument is magnetic tape, so I collaborated with my own analogue gear.

Radio Concrète was a a 12-hour broadcasting marathon that explored radio as a compositional tool and included contributions from Margherita Brillada, Veerle Pennock, Clara Byom, Bas van Druten, Nele Möller, Marieke van de Ven, Sharon Stewart, and was hosted by Steph Byrne.

During my stay, I fell in love with the Elektor Formant, a vintage Dutch synth handmade by Jos van Ras. In addition I used my SOMA Ether, Lore Mill Keyed Mosstone and Make Noise Strega synth. At the end of the broadcast, I made an intimate performance for a live and dedicated audience in collaboration with Het Concreet. This is an excerpt from that show."

NibbleKnotOne / I watched a video on the Lorre-Mill Double Knot and I shouldn't have / NIBBLER


video upload by BRiES

"Have you heard of this device? It combines a double shift register with some west-coast (lpg?) features to create simple but mesmerizing sequences of blips and bloops. I watched an Instagram reel by Sam Prekop that sounded way too nice, so I had a go at creating something similar in eurorack using Schlappi Engineering's NIBBLERS and THREE BODY.

I don't think I got anywhere close to what a Double Knot can do but these kinds of patches either end up being interesting in their own right or are the stepping stone for incremental understanding of a (new) technique."

SOLAR 42 firmware ver.2

"New firmware fixed bugs and added some settings.
The sensor plates will now work steadily.

There are 3 new pages in the calibration settings:
- TOUCH THRESHOLD sets the value below which a plate will be interpreted as pressed.
- RELEASE THRESHOLD sets the value above which a plate will be interpreted as unpressed.
- KEYBOARD DIAGNOSIS visualises the state and unprocessed pressure level of each plate.

ATTENTION!

Pittsburgh Modular Taiga Keys - 3 Oscillator Movement


video upload by Molten Music Technology

"A simple sequencing of the Taiga Keys' three oscillators to explore some of the sound shaping, filter and dynamics. The sequencing is provided by the Seb Songs PolySEQ, and the reverb from Erica Synths Black Stereo Reverb which both fit neatly inside the expansion bay. Adding Cassette Saturation and Cascade Delay we have the Hologram Chroma Console. It gives it some nice wobble and bite."
