80s YAMAHA Rhythm Machine RX17 & Kasane Teto sampled OP-1 field | Resolve 2025-11-11 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"This piece was created using the ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Nord Lead, ‪@YamahaSynthsOfficial‬ RX17, MU15, and MOTIF-RACK ES. It combines rhythm machine beats, melodies made from sampled vocals of 重音テト Kasane Teto SV, and live bass performance.

On the OP-1 field, the sampler contains Kasane Teto’s voice, which is used to create melodic phrases. At certain points, looping is applied through the NTS-3, and the signal is processed with the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MKII.

The RX17 rhythm machine is recorded with an ALESIS 3630 compressor applied.

On the MU15, synth sounds are performed using its built-in keyboard, with reverb added via the blueSky.

The Nord Lead plays melodic parts in the middle section of the piece, processed through the ‪@gfisys‬ Specular Tempus for delay.

The bass is recorded through a SANSAMP Bass Driver DI, routed directly into the audio interface for a clean yet warm tone."

expanse control offers three room size modes (Small, Medium, Large) with carefully tuned delay networks for natural spatial imaging.

PlantsSystem-cyan/n | PlantsSystem-Material01


video upload by plantssystem




"[A New Dimension of Sonic Experience] Granular Looper 'cyan/n' Demo by PlantsSystem.

PlantsSystem demonstrated 'cyan/n' the revolutionary granular looper developed by sound designer Katsuhiro Chiba.

'cyan/n' is a powerful sound tool that freely manipulates short sound particles (granules) to reconstruct existing sound sources in unpredictable and organic ways. In this recording, PlantsSystem uses 'cyan/n' to create an improvised, experimental techno groove.

We explore its possibilities, from noisy, psychedelic textures to deep, ambient sounds."


PlantsSystem-Material01

video upload by plantssystem




"PlantsSystem latest release, 'Material01' is a hard-hitting techno track designed for the club floor.

Using cyan/n for the SFX and Rebirth for the bottom section, the track delivers a sharp yet profound sound design.

The SFX, 909, and 303 intertwine exquisitely, maintaining a comfortable balance throughout the track.

Experience PlantsSystem minimal techno, perfect for late-night dance floors or listening with headphones.

Tools: cyan/n (SFX), Rebirth (Bottom).

#Techno #PlantsSystem #Material01 #Rebirth #909 #303 #cyann #ElectronicMusic"



via https://audiooo.com/cyann

"Released in 2003, this Mac app (now discontinued) was developed using Max for sample loop-based improvisation. It combined a sample slicer, granular looper, rhythm box, multi-effects, master effects, and more, allowing for real-time processing without stopping the performance. Software like this was rare at the time, and its cutting-edge concept, including its user interface, received an overwhelming response both in Japan and overseas.

release: Dec 26, 2003
last update: Sep 3, 2008
Standalone app (OSX 10.4)"

Note, this appears to be the first post to feature cyan/n.

Dimensional Patching - Exploring Sumu's Space Module


video upload by Madrona Labs

"Today we're breaking down the Space module—Sumu's advanced panner and mixer section. With 64 partials per voice and individual control over each one's placement in the stereo field, Sumu opens up some serious spatial possibilities. By patching any partial output to the x, y, or z axis, we transform our spectral data into a dimensional landscape we can navigate and manipulate. We'll also explore home and field patterns, and how modulating the field pattern's speed generates spatial movement directly from our partials.

Korg Triton Extreme VST Plugin (Korg Collection 6) - No talking demo


video upload by ADL-MusicLab

"Hi, everyone!

The original Korg Triton first appeared in 1999 and then the TRITON Extreme appeared in 2004 as the most powerful model in the series, featuring the first-ever "Valve Force" vacuum tubes in a music workstation, and most of the new PCM and EXB-PCM series waveforms.

This plug-in faithfully reproduces the HI (Hyper Integrated) synthesis system down to the smallest details and contains every one of the vast number of preset programs.

You can have again the sound that defined an era, with a very faithful software emulation that can bring this classic synthesizer "back to the future". This software really replicates the Korg Triton Extreme down to the last details and in this "No talking demo" I just mess around with some beautiful presets.

Grab it! You won't be disappointed.

SOME SPECS:
◉ Combination mode allowing for up to eight of multi-timbral parts to be played simultaneously ;
◉ Over 4,000 ready-to-go sound programs;
◉ Includes all of the expansion library EXB-PCM cards;
◉ Five insert effects and and two master effects, plus a master EQ;
◉ Complete reproduction of TRITON’s HI (Hyper Integrated) synthesis system;
◉ Full of ready-to-go phrases with 307 dual arpeggiator patterns;
◉ Supervised by original TRITON developers;
◉ Over 4,000 ready-to-go sound programs;
◉ and much more..."

Formanta P432 + LELMIDIDRUM From UltraRare.SU


video upload by Futulyric

"The Formanta P432, a Soviet digital synthesizer, originally featured a very distinctive, authentic noise and could have been significantly improved if it had supported ADSR. This flaw has now been corrected; as a plugin, it sounds more interesting. The noise, however, remains, lending a distinctive vibe.
LEL MIDIDRUM is a digital drum module from the company of the same name, dating back to the Soviet era. No other surviving example is known, so its sound can only be heard here.
Also available as a plugin.
