Siles Pt-1 Techno


video upload by itramtal

"In this video, I explore a techno sound journey using my favorite synthesizers. The Minimoog creates powerful bass lines, the Sequential Prophet-6 adds rich melodies, the DSI Tempest delivers dynamic percussion, and both the Blackbox and Bluebox by 1010 Music are used to trigger samples and sequences. Join me on this electronic session and let yourself be carried away by each beat."

Moog Subharmonicon + Make Noise Bruxa = MAGIC

"Plus some melodic piano from the Disting NT. Field recordings + FX all from the iPad. All sequenced by the Subharmonicon, except for percussions (DFAM).

Nice to be back after a long break. I hope you enjoy it!

Starsky Carr's Studio: Vintage & Modern Synth Setup Explained


video upload by Starsky Carr

"Welcome to a full synth studio tour — a look inside my hardware setup featuring vintage analog synths, modern wavetable instruments, modular gear and classic drum machines.

See how a mix of vintage synths, modern instruments, modular gear and drum machines all come together in one integrated setup. In this video I walk through the studio, explain how everything is connected, and show some of the instruments that regularly appear on the channel.

The studio is constantly evolving as new synths arrive, others get repaired, and different setups are tested for videos. In this walkthrough you'll see how classic gear like the Juno-60, Prophet series, Minimoog, TR-808, TR-909 and Jupiter synths sit alongside modern instruments such as the UDO Super 8, Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave, Waldorf M, Arturia PolyBrute and Roland System-8.

I also explain how everything is routed through the studio — from CV-controlled vintage synths integrated with MIDI, to the AudioFuse interface and Neve summing mixer that handle the audio side of things.

If you've ever wondered how to organise a hardware synth studio, integrate vintage CV instruments with modern DAWs, or just want to see a room full of iconic synths and drum machines, this video gives you a behind-the-scenes look at the setup behind the channel.

You’ll also hear a few stories along the way — including the slightly ridiculous “six degrees of separation” link from my studio gear to Charlize Theron and Kevin Bacon through the Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels soundtrack.

Whether you're into analog synthesis, wavetable synths, modular gear, or classic drum machines, this studio tour is packed with gear, ideas and inspiration.

Gear featured (selection)

• Roland Juno-60
• Roland Jupiter series
• Moog Minimoog, Voyager % Sub37
• Sequential Prophet synths
• Oberheim OBX8 and OB6
• UDO Super 8
• Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave

• Arturia PolyBrute
• Roland System-8
• TR-808 / TR-909 drum machines

Moog Opus 3 — "New Old Stock" Sliders, Switches, Controls, Control Caps & Knobs SN 5828

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this eBay listing

"The Moog Opus 3 is a vintage polyphonic synth that combines string, organ and brass sounds in a four-octave keyboard, along with flexible controls for shaping each sound.

One of the coolest things about the Opus 3 is that it has a classic Moog four-pole filter that the brass and organ can be run through. The filter has the sound Moogs are famous four, and it can be run into self-oscillation.

The synth also features a three-phase chorus effect that uses the famed Reticon bucket brigade chips, as well as stereo and mono outputs.

Here are details about the unit for sale:

The old, deteriorating foam that sat below the control panel has been removed from this one, so you don’t have to worry about it.

All of the sliders, switches and rotary controls — except for the master volume — were changed out for New Old Stock replacements. All the slider caps and control knobs are New Old Stock as well. Everything works smoothly, with no noise or issues.

The master volume has very minor crackle at the top end of its range while it’s being moved. It is otherwise noise-free during normal operation. I would have had it changed out but it wasn’t possible to source an original replacement.

One of the three original Reticon chips in the chorus effect was replaced when an original failed. All three are working, and the chorus sounds great.

The original red LED in the Modulation section was swapped out for a new bright blue LED.

I wasn’t able to test the sustain jack on the unit’s front panel. Moog chose an unusual size jack here— it’s slightly smaller than a 1/4-inch input. It would be easy to swap it out with a proper 1/4-inch jack if you choose to do so.

The physical condition is very good. Note the scratches to the wood and some minor marks on the faceplate.

All of the notes sound as they should, and all controls and functions work as they should.

HELPFUL NOTES
Although its functions are basic, you’ll need to understand the signal routing in the Opus 3. These are spelled out in the owner's manual (which is available online), but knowing the following will help you get your head around it.

For example, the chorus effect operates on the strings and organ, not on the brass. This is by design and is noted by an arrow on the control panel.

The Moog four-pole VCF can be used on the organ and brass, not the strings. Again, this is by design and is noted by an arrow on the control panel.

Frequency Modulation works on all sounds, but VCF modulation only works on the organ and brass because these are the two sounds that can be run through the VCF (see the point immediately above). Again, this is by design.

The length of chorus delay is set by using the delay fader in the Modulation section. This too is by design.

Two other noteworthy points:

• The pitch wheel has a firm detent (the point at which it sits at pitch). Other owners have noted the same thing about their units in online forums. It’s not difficult to work, but it’s firmer than on other synths I’ve owned.

• All of the electronics, aside from those mentioned above, are original and working fine. Electrical components can fail or become damaged with time and/or misuse. Always be sure you are connected to proper voltage, and note that ground loops can introduce hum."

Moog DFAM+Labyrinth 50 Combo Patches + Samples. Sound Demo


video upload by Anton Anru

"🥁 'Modular Impulse' is a collection of 50 combo patches for the semi-modular analog synthesizers Moog DFAM and Labyrinth.
The soundset focuses on rhythmic and dynamic sound design, as both synthesizers are naturally oriented toward punchy, percussive tones.
🧿 The collection includes basses, plucks, bleeps, drums, leads, and FXs.
There is a wide range of sound colors inside the pack: massive and gentle, aggressive and soft, bright and dull, melodic and inharmonic tones, as well as straight and polymetric patterns.

📦 The patches are available here: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/dfam...

🎛 The main idea behind the soundset is a high level of interconnection, rather than simply syncing the synths with independent timbres (individual patch collections for DFAM and Labyrinth are also available on my website).
In this patchbook, the timbres of the synths are tightly intertwined and cannot exist separately:

SISTERS - Ambient session #29 // Mannequins Three Sisters, Arbhar, Panharmonium, Subharmonicon


video upload by David Falcon

"First sounds with the Mannequins Sisters, such an interesting little module. In its core is a triple filter (Hi, Low and Band Pass) but it works great as an spectral mixer. I am slowly modulating the frequency cutoff so that the different sounds come and go progressively. Very little resonance added, it can be very resonant!

// Patch Notes //
Voice 1- Arbhar recording of my voice and ambient sounds with the internal microphone. High input of Sisters.
Voice 2 - Maths Tom sound into Rings. Center of Sisters.
Voice 3 - Panharmonium with a Random sequence from Pams into the Low input of Sisters.
These 3 voices go into the Xaoc Praga mixer, with Mimeophon and FX Aid in the sends. I am modulating the volume and panof
Voice 2 from Øchd and Pams, and the panning of Arbhar from Pams too. The mix goes through Qubit Mojave for the occasional reversed granular bleep.
Voice 4 - Subharmonicon through Blooper as a delay and Mercury 7 as Reverb.
Voice 5 - Low kick from DFAM


Recorded in a single stereo mix and mastered in Ableton."

via this eBay listing

"This is a very well kept Memomory Plus with all the original manual, schematic, factory program and sequences (plus other casettes, Moog expression pedal with old original box. What makes this extra special is it even include the original warranty card from the first owner with a date of purchase of April 20, 1983.

This was fully serviced by Nick Montoya of Santa Barbara. According to the previous owner( second owner) whom I bought it from. He spent over $2,000 for Nick’s service. Nick is the guy that Moog sent to various international countries to do repairs for high prize Moogs. I can send the video of him showing a demo of this keyboard.

After a good warm up (usually 15-30 minutes), all 6 voices tuned. Been playing it few hours a day and tunes each time I press auto tune. The sounds are amazing."

entropy encoder - a low bitrate mp3 emulator - 1st Preview - Moog Muse - Clair de Lune


video upload by copenhagennoiselab

"Debussy’s Clair de Lune… played on a Moog Muse… then politely fed into Entropy Encoder (unusable.ai) until it started hallucinating.

This is a pre-release preview with automation-heavy settings and sequenced randomization firing at different musical divisions, so the “codec decay” breathes and glitches in time. Expect swish, birdies, smear, framey wobble, and the occasional moment where reality briefly loses its license.

🎛️ Source: Moog Muse
🧪 FX: Entropy Encoder (pre-release preview)
🌀 Automation + synced random at multiple time divisions
