Dave Smith Instruments Pro-2 soundscape - What is upon us

video upload by MIDERA

"It's sort of a response to the Moog Matriarch soundscape I posted yesterday. They're fairly similar synths - and I have a lot of things to say about that, but I'll save it for another time."

Update: MIDERA initially reported an issue with the cutoff knob: "After playing around with the Pro-2 more, I discovered that Filter 2 wouldn't close properly (it actually went down then back up again as I went counterclockwise, and I know it shouldn't do that in LP mode). I contacted Sequential and they just said to send it in."

The video has been updated with: "I had an issue with my Pro-2. Sequential reached out and it was resolved."

DSI Prophet 12 Patch creation walkthrough (with new and improved video orientation)

video upload by MIDERA

"Note: This is a repost of a video I made the other day. People didn't like the video orientation, so I switch it. Kept the other video up because why not).

Alright I didn’t even know what to call this video. I guess it’s just sort of a bumbling mess of walking through making a patch and some of my thoughts as I went along. I actually don’t like anything I made either! Oh well, I spent 50 minutes making it and guess I feel like sharing it in the event that someone likes it or finds it interesting.

Let me know what you think.

No external FX used."

Dave Smith Instruments Pro-2 first impression and walkthrough

video upload by MIDERA

"NOTE: Ugh, well, as you can see the video quality is horrible. I just figured out why - OBS had used a very small resolution. I guess this will just have to do because this was my first impression. Sorry!

I hope you enjoy the video anyway.

No external FX were used."

u-he CVilization Mode I: Musical demo (no talking)

video upload by u-he

"Here's a jam featuring our CVilization module in Mode I (4 x 4 Matrix Mixer). We're exploring the musical possibilities of the mysterious Matrix Rotation [posted here]. 4 different oscillator signals are routed through CVilization's matrix and distributed to various other modules. CVilization now rotates its inputs and outputs, creating ever-changing mixes of these oscillator signals. CVilization's sidekick Wiretap also joins the game with two of its outputs hooked up, creating some funky alternating envelopes.

Dave Smith Prophet 12 soundscape - The way is broken

video upload by MIDERA

"Onto my next synth for soundscapes series. The Prophet 12. Not really a synth I've thought about selling - or rather, I do think about selling it, but it's such a cool looking synth and does do a lot of interesting things. Of which, I probably did about 5-10%. That's the interesting thing about the Jupiter 6, you can kind of go anywhere within a few movements. On the Prophet 12 or Poly Evolver, you kind of need to think it through more.

Still - the Prophet 12 is one of the best laid out synths. I guess I'm still not sold on its sound.

Dave Smith Poly Evolver soundscape - And all that we could see was gone

video upload by MIDERA

"Following my other recent videos, trying to just take my synths on a journey and see where they take me. I've most enjoyed the Jupiter 6 and JD-800, surprisingly so. I thought - the next synth should be the Poly Evolver. I figured this was a good one to test because 1) it's so unique and 2) it is somewhat similar to the UDO Super 6 minus two voices, like a Super 4. They both are 'binaural' in a sense, with two oscillators per side. I think the Poly Evolver isn't likely as fluid as the UDO to edit though, given that you edit the oscillators so independently on the Poly Evolver. Also, you can't double the voice count when throwing the synth into monoaural or however you'd call it on the PEK.

What I've noticed for myself is that... I seem to get the same sounds out of the PEK every time I play it. That's for sure on me, but it just gets this 'sound' that is hard to describe, but maybe it's just its 'character'.

Well, I was left feeling a little underwhelmed by this exploration. Yes - I'm still trying to sell gear to grab a Super 6 to see what it can do for me.

Note: My camera wasn't recording the first 10 minutes. I didn't realize this till later, so I took that audio and threw it at the end of the video and put some placeholder footage there. My apologies.
