Intro/Violet | Moyka Synth Cover (Instrumental)

video upload by Jezza M

"I swapped a few of my synths around this time, and focused more on the monosynths for this cover of 'Intro' and 'Violet' by Moyka! I extended 'Intro' slightly too here as well

New addition to the family is my Korg MS-20 mini, so I am finally at a place where I feel as if I am able to not use any VSTs - everything you hear is being done by the synths you see. As always, a one-take recording (with a few mistakes - I am doing it live!) but it took a good few tries to get this one right.

Enjoy!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nerd alert!

Top left is my Korg MS-20 mini. Not really being used to its full potential here, just for the vocal line, but it can do some really freaky things as it is semi-modular. Watch this space, I hope to do something to show it off better soon

Just in front is my Roland JU-06A. Not analog, but that doesn't really matter, as you can hear how good it sounds on the arpeggiators throughout Violet

Bottom left is my Moog Subsequent 37. I needn't say any more. Absolute beast, does the bass and then provides an additional bass arp

To the right is a Roland TR-8S. Very powerful little drum machine, although does lack a song mode, hence the frantic changing of patterns

Occasional visitor to the video is my Sequential Prophet Rev2. My only keyboard polysynth, hence I use it mostly for pads!"

Studio Electronics MidiMini

video upload by Vykaar Tones

"As these are quite rare I thought I would make a video while I was testing this one after a repair and service. It is basically a minimoog in a rack with midi and more features - sounds great... played from my trusty and rather dusty Arturia Keystep. Please click thru to get the various tones as this is quite a long video for Minimoog fans and nerds."

Marillion Kayleigh ~ Vintage Synthesizer Recreation ~ RetroSound

video upload by RetroSound

"One of my favorite tracks from the 80s.
Kayleigh by Marillion from the album Misplaced Childhood (1985)
Written by Fish and produced by Chris Kimsey.
Recorded in the famous Hansa Studios in West-Berlin.

Featured the PPG wave 2.2, the Roland Juno-106 and the Moog Taurus bass pedal

This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks.
My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers."

HAINBACH - Moog Muse: Demo and Patch from Scratch

"Muse is an eight-voice analog bi-timbral polyphonic synthesizer — the culmination of over 5 years of dreams, design, and passion. Muse is an intuitive and powerful instrument built on the rich history of Moog that simultaneously gazes boldly into the future. This studio or performance centerpiece is driven by eight analog voices, each with two VCOs, a modulation VCO, dual VCFs, and a stereo VCA — all with that recognizable, kinetic analog quality.

Moog Muse Desktop Test Machine Spotted

This one is in via an anonumous reader.

If you click on the image and zoom in you will see what appears to be a desktop test machine of the upcoming Moog Muse and some circuit boards. Also note the boards on the table in the foreground. They appear to match the boards in the test machine w/ keyboard on the desk to the left of the desktop unit. A little bit of synth history in the making.

Moog Labyrinth Quick Minute

video upload by boxoftextures

"Just got a Moog Labyrinth and wanted to do a quick demo. Most of the demos I've seen are very, well, percussive, and I wanted to show that it can play notes as well. Wasn't 100% sure about this one, but having played with it for maybe an hour now I'm totally sold on it. And super happy they included a Hirajoshi scale as one of the 16, which both surprised and delighted me!

This quick minute patch uses one oscillator for notes and the other for modulation, but you can set the second one to audio rates and have the two sequences at different speeds playing off one another. Haven't gotten that far yet but looking forward to it. Also can't wait to clock the Labyrinth and the Subharmonicon together and then patch between them.

This is 100% Labyrinth, no external effects where used. Although to be honest I really wanted to put a reverb/echo on it LOL."

New Moog Muse Details

Some new details on the upcoming Moog Muse have been shared online and have been added to this post. They appear to be from a Norweigan shop, and appear to be legit, however, we won't know for sure until Moog officially announces the Muse, of course. Some slightly larger pics have been added there as well, however, they are still pretty blurry. They do, of course, give you the gist of it. Click here for the update.

A note on leaks: please note MATRIXSYNTH does respect embargos, and only shares what has already been leaked online as once the news is out, the news is out. This is a synth news site and synth leaks are news. Not keeping up-to-date would essentially make the site irellevant. If you are a manufacturer, my recommendation is to NOT release images or details to anyone, including shops, until you are ready to formally announce the product. The majority of leaks come from online shops that either fail to keep things private, or leak it on purpose to get pre-orders in ahead of others. This is one of the reasons I do not link to shops that leak gear, as it only encourages them.

Please note as a courtesy to sponsors and supporting members of the site, I will reach out if I do spot a leak, prior to posting. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out.
