Short Waves - SYNTRX and Korg SQ-64, NTS-1 Synth Demo

video upload by Robert Saint John

"Here’s a short poppy piece summing up my weeks of experimenting with the ins and outs of the @EricaSynths Syntrx, the @KorgOfficial NTS-1, and the SQ-64 sequencer. Two paraphonic tracks from the chain-patterned SQ-64 via CV to Syntrx, and a third via MIDI to the NTS-1 equipped with @Sinevibes very cool GROOVE DSP drum machine engine. Ring mod on Syntrx with OSC3 and the messy input from a shortwave radio for some grit, all out to the NTS-1 for reverb and delay. Recorded direct with Roland GO:Mixer Pro X."

First Encounter with with the New AK Poly by American Keyworks

Not a synth, but I'll make the exception for this one.

"This is my first encounter with the new AK Poly by American Keyworks.
What an unusual instrument: Is it a guitar with keys or a keyboard with strings?
Never mind, but watch out guitar players: Now I can make similar noises, while a glass of fine wine waits for me standing on the instrument. Try this with your guitar ;-)
