Synth Riffs on Novation KS5 VA Synthesizer ! 09_03_2023

video upload by Calcaire - Calixte - Camhi - 石灰岩

"was having fun with my synth, recorded the jam as usual and thought it was a good idea to share it, cause there ain't much video of the KS5 here"

The edgier side of the KS5.

Shimmers and Echoes (soundscape) for VCS3, Arp 2600, Clavinet, Mellotron and Gong.

video upload by R. Reger

"All VCS3 patches played through an Empress Echosystem. Arp 2600 patches played through a Boss RE-20 Space Echo. Clavinet played through a Fairfield Circuitry "Randy's Revenge" ring modulator. Mellotron played through an MXR 10-band EQ and Boss RV-5 reverb."

Arp87 delay on synth: Simple yet interesting, flavorsome yet mild

video upload by Richard DeHove

"No matter how many high-end delays you have there's always a place for a small and simple mono. The Walrus Audio Arp87 has a lot going for it: obvious operation, five delay modes, good sound, small footprint and tap tempo. Against that the modulation is a bit seasick and it's not cheap.

It's also rather Roland-esque in that it won't let you do anything too weird. It won't go anywhere near 100% wet, it has no delay time knob and it won't self-oscillate.

This was bought with my own money and it was annoyingly expensive. So nothing's perfect and perhaps this is just another stop on the never-ending delay pedal quest.

Bad Gear - He might be BIASED

video upload by AudioPilz

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. There are these unfounded rumors that this show is not actually about Bad Gear, that I just pick random stuff I want to make music with and let clueless online trolls do their magic.

This is - of course - a steaming pile of horse dung and I just recently failed to find enough hate on, for example, the Access Virus B, Novation Drumstation and Dreadbox Typhon.

However, today we are going to talk about Digitakt II and as this particular unit was sent over by Elektron as a long term loan even they must be aware of the fact that late 80s polyphony, partial physics workflow and a lack of essential hipster features make for some juicy online controversy.
