Live Modular Synth Performance: "Free Ride" by P.O.B. (@obrienmedia)

Published on Aug 9, 2015 Patrick OBrien

"My latest modular synthesizer song, performed live, showcasing all the sick lights and sounds that make modular synths the best musical instruments ever.

- The beginning "horn" is a sample sound from QuBit's Nebulae

- Added the Mutant drums (Bassdrum, HiHats, Cymbals), with the bass line from The Harvestman's Hertz Donut.

- Flute melody comes from Mutable Instruments' Braids, morphed by Expert Sleepers' Disting, then crazy distorted by the Malgorithm, pulling the patch cord out from Metrolpolis and touching the pitch jack for the heavy metal guitar breakdown.

- Bells at the end from Mutable's Elements with DPO and tELHARMONIC both being filtered with high resonance by DSI's Curtis Filter.

- Rhythms created by both the Delptronics Trigger Man and 4ms' SCM/SCM Breakout.

No computers were used in this piece. All modular synths.

I am P.O.B. living in Los Angeles.

Solid Walnut Chassis / Body / Case for the KORG Polysix

The listing is for the case only.

"The sides and front rail are crafted out of solid walnut which is quite expensive. The bottom panel is made out of quality maple plywood (no particle board or utility grade plywood here). I recently built another for a Polysix owner and now have decided to offer these on eBay. I'm not aware of anyone else currently making these available. There was another guy once, but he seems to have vanished about 3 years ago. From his pictures, I didn't like what he was offering anyhow. He had large screws on the outside holding on the end caps, junky, knotty utility grade plywood for the bottom and no RF shielding added. Other than the internal battery that would often leak and destroy a Polysix, a common complaint of owners was the cheap particle board body that banged up and crumbled easily."

"This demo I did using just a tad of reverb and delay in ableton SORRY purists had to put a little delay heh he."

Note the polyphonic aftertouch at times in the demo. The T8 was one of the only synths to have it along with the Yamaha CS80.
