L-1 Nuvistor VCA - Prototype.

video upload by Aleksei Laman

"L-1 Nuvistor VCA is a VCA based on nuvistor triodes.
In the video I'm comparing Nuvistor VCA to orther VCAs of L-1 vintage soviet collection, - Tube VCA 2П2П, Tube VCA 1Ж24Б, Germanium VCA.
I'm playing a melody with a triangle wave, then another melody with a saw wave, then I'm showing a waveforms.

Nuvistor is a type of vacuum tube. But instead of glass bulb it cased into metal can. It was top-notch of tubes development."

"This is just first test of the new Vocoder.
Simply saw wave direct from the oscillator as carrier.
More videos a bit later."

"L-1 Synthesizer plays Melodic House.
This time for learning purpose I decided to partially recreate this lession: [Arrangement Tips video below]

Background pads I sampled. Sine melody I sampled from L-1 Quad EQ in oscillation mode, chord pad I sampled from modules, string pad I sampled from Korg TR.
Recorded live into stereo track 'as is'. No computer mixing."
