Mano Sol - "Howfarout" (Roland DJ-70, Oberheim OB-1, Novation Drumstation)


video upload by Mano Sol

"This is the first of a new series; samples, synths and oscilloscopes...

Going back to how I produced music 30 years ago. Embracing the limitations and beauty of 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s technology. Repurposing and recycling technology and music.

Equipment used in this video:
Roland DJ-70 (sampling heavy lifting)
Novation Drumstation (808 kicks)
Oberheim OB-1 (filter modulations)
Macintosh SE running MOTU Performer 4.2
Korg SDD-2000 (echoes)
Roland RSP-550 (reverb)
Mackie 1402-VLZ Pro"

Dual Monomachine IDM with new aftermarket +Drives from MachineStore


video upload by MIDERA

"Scrolling through Reddit one day I came across a post about aftermarket +Drives. I thought it wasn't legit, or rather, I didn't know what to think.
This is the thread: / wts_drive_extension_for_elektron_machinedrum

Well, my Monomachines are the MKI variety, and I got them a long time ago, sans +Drives (which I didn't even know what they were at the time). I got mine really cheap, and of course, now surprised for what they go for. Anyway, I was always a little bummed that I didn't have the drives in mine, although it's not the worst thing in the world to use the computer to offload the patterns/data and start fresh.

Anyway - I bought these aftermarket +Drives for a really good price, got two of them. The folks over at MachineStore (SyntheticJudah specifically) are awesome and the whole process from start to finish buying these things and getting them (well packed) to my house, was really excellent.

Here's some other places to find their stuff:

/ discord

I'm looking forward to whatever they release next. You should check them out if you have Elektron gear :)

Used Eventide Blackhole VST for reverb."

An Evening Together (Sequential Take 5, Novation Bass Station II and Launch Control XL 3)


video upload by MKustomAudio

"Some reworked and new tracks put together for a recent product performance/demonstration. Tracks start with a lighter/brighter feeling before transitioning to heavier/darker sound. The Novation Bass Station II and Sequential Take 5 were used for external synthesizers alongside backing tracks in Ableton, while the Novation Launch Control XL 3 was used for additional control/manipulation of tracks.

Improvising chiptune music using 2 SIDs and a looper


video upload by MIDI IN

"I realised that I haven't recently tried using the looper in MIDIPan with MIDISID, and that's actually a lot easier now that the new version of MIDISID allows you to plug in a USB MIDI controller. Power and data with a single lead. I chose a slow laid back beat, and used a lot of portamento, or glide. I'm using the Beebop minor scale for some interesting licks."

Suziki Siel Expander 80 Synth Test


video upload by loksync

"Test of my Siel 80 synth. All synth sounds are from the Siel, sequenced with Ableton. I recorded the Siel onto multiple tracks but one of the tracks is being recorded live in the video whilst I tweak the Siel filter using Midi CC with a Max4Live device.
The kick and hat are not from the Siel.

The Siel uses an SSM2045 filter."

Industrial dark modular synth performance by Stephen McCaul


video upload by Noise Engineering

"Here's an industrial dark modular synth performance by Chief Noisemaker Stephen McCaul.

The bottom case is a six voice case with Incus Iteritas Alia (2), Debel Iteritas Alia, Tymp Legio, Manis Iteritas Alia, Virt Iter Legio + Ampla Legio.

There is a Librae Legio for the percussion submix (paralleling the main mix) and an Electus Versio on a send. The rhythm sequencing is from an experimental prototype that isn't really product worthy.

Pitch sequencing comes from Opp Ned. And the Xer Mixa mixer ties it all together.

The top case is an effects rig for another project but i used a Fala Versio and a Yester Versio in that case for some additional effects.

No mention in the listing whether he owned one in general or if this is his specific unit. Regardless the SX-WSA1 is interesting in that it employs physical modeling synthesis and that it's by Technics. You can find previous posts featuring the WSA1 including some demos here.

"It's one of my favorite synths because the balance of limitations and possibilities feels just right. I find myself wanting to play with it from time to time. This time, I was recording a lot of raw one-shots for use in dots."

Dub Techno w/ TR-808, Music Easel, microKORG S Mirage in Tokyo by atnr


video upload by atnr

"A track built with the Roland TR-808, Buchla Music Easel, and ‪@KORG_INC‬ microKORG S—dub techno sculpted from delay-soaked synth lines and classic drum-machine rhythms.

TR-808: Kick is sent from the individual out through a SANSAMP Bass Driver before recording; all other sounds leave the main out, which runs into a Boss DD-6 for tempo-synced delay.

Music Easel: Generates soft-attack, long-release tones that feed into a ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY for reverb and filter sweeps.

microKORG S: Plays a MIDI-sequenced phrase with its onboard delay, while additional notes are overdubbed live."

DIY eurorack modular synth | MOD2 VCO : RP2350 based drum module


video upload by HAGIWO

"This module is an open source general-purpose Drum module based on Seeed XIAO RP2350.
Thanks to AI-friendly hardware design, it's easy to create software variations using generative AI. With general-purpose components and a simple circuit, this module is affordable and DIY-friendly.

VCO:
V/oct tracking , 6 waveforms.

MOD2 is not a module designed for use as a VCO.
It has a limited number of CV inputs and cannot modulate the timbre.
It is a technical test program intended to verify functionality as a simple oscillator.
