Erica Synths Hexdrums tutorial - Part 1: Essentials
video upload by Richard DeHove
"Erica Synths Hexdrums drum machine is easy to use. That's the usual wisdom, and it's true. If you already know the basics of drum machines then you can get started in seconds. Yet there are still around 20 performance functions to master and some crucial configuration options. The way accents work, for example, is not as obvious as it seems, just check 17:39
So this is a video manual to all the essential sequencer operations. It contains absolutely nothing about programming sounds. Part 2 will cover all the remaining function such as live performance options, samples and song mode.
Apologies in advance for the somewhat fuzzy appearance of the display characters - in reality of course they are crisp :/ At least the front panel text is sharp.
Many thanks to my kind patrons who keep this channel ad-free

VIVALDI - Autumn Part 2 on SIX Korg ARP Odysseys
video upload by Richard Payne
"He knocked it out the park did Vivaldi, with Autumn Part 2. I had it programmed and up on the ARPs for a couple of weeks before I filmed it this afternoon. Was a one take wonder this time, but I had been fiddling with it for a fortnight. And it's very hard to mess up this one.
The Odyssey FS keyboard (on it's side) is taking place of Odyssey #3 (still at the repair place ...) and is handling the 'not needing to be filldled with' bass. Top left (#1) is playing the PWM'd arpeggio. #2, #4 & #5 are playing the 'string' parts and #6 is on sub bass and white noise duties. It's being modulated by it's LFO on the lowest rate.
There's no EQ or mixing going on but I did lean into Ableton's Delay on the Arpeggio and Sub Bass / Wind synths and everything was fed through Arturia's lovely LX-24 Reverb.
Thanks again for watching!"
Melodic Buchla 100 with SciFi video - by Benge
video upload by Memetune Studio
"Another track from the new Benge album
The track itself is made on a vintage Buchla 100 series modular system from the 1960s. A series of looper modules made by 2hp were used to construct the music in real time
How many melodic Buchla 100 videos are out there? Not many I wager
You can watch the original performance here:
• Orangey-Brown Accumulation (Buchla 100) [posted here]
This video pays homage to one of my favourite science fiction illustrators Bruce Pennington, who was responsible for many amazing book covers, which I have on my shelf. I have tried to bring them to life by putting them through the Memetune VideoLab...enjoy!"
KINTSUGI - a song by Gattobus
video upload by gattobus
"Kintsugi is a Japanese art that consists of repairing broken pots or cups with a gold filling. I think we should do the same with our lives. Whenever you feel broken or incomplete, try to fill yourself with what you like the most. We all have to find our own 'gold', the things that can fill the gaps in our soul.
Music is my gold. This is what this song is about.
I hope you like it.
If you do, please consider subscribing to my channel and sharing my work. Thank you!
This is a real-time performance played with my Buchla Easel Command 208C.
Drums and synth parts added later.
Mixing and mastering in Ableton Live 12."
