"4/16/25 (transpose) ARP 1623 & 1613 + Roland System 100m + Alesis MIDIVERB II + Paia 6740 + ALM Pamela’s New Workout

Well, I’ve been having too much fun with the ARP 1623 sequencer, so we decided not to sell it after all. We were lucky and got it during the pandemic from an eBay auction with no reserve and no lurking whales, and we know we won’t be that lucky again. In this video the 1623 sequence is transposed by a slower sequence on the ARP 1613. The ALM Pamela’s New Workout clocks the ARP 1623 sequencer, which is in sequential 8/2 mode. The 1623’s Position 1 output drives the 1613, which is also in 8/2 sequential mode, but with a three step sequence (steps 4-8 are set to gate bus 3). The 1613 quantized output A is mixed with the 1623’s quantized output B in the Roland 130 mixer, then that controls the pitch of one of the Roland 110 VCOs. The 1623’s quantized A controls the other 110 VCO’s pitch. The 150 LFO and the 140 LFO are modulating the two 110 VCFs. Both VCAs run through the Lower West Side Studios M830 Signal Distribution System to the Mackie Onyx 1640 mixer. The Alesis MIDIVERB II is on an aux send and the stereo output returns to two channels on the Mackie, hard-panned, with onboard eq to brighten it up. The Paia 6740 spring reverb is panned hard left."
