Prophet 6 Noodle


Published on Jul 21, 2018 100 Things I Do

"Unsurprisingly The Prophet 6 reminds me a lot of my old Prophet 5. Not exactly the same ... but for sure from the same family! Most of the workflow is the same and the addition of the effects section, Poly sequencer, Arpeggiator, velocity + Stereo effects and voice panning makes it a no brainer! Well into the 'not an impulse purchase' money but a proper analog synth with vintage flavour + supports modern work flows! The secret is to really investigate the sweet spots on the filters and Poly mod (which there are many). Your time will pay off with some amazing and sweet patches :D"

Sequential Prophet 5 Advanced - new Sounds


Published on Jul 21, 2018 synthlegends

"My refurbished Prophet 5 Rev. 3.3 with some great mods like new PSU, Fatar keyboard with aftertouch, new bender board with a new storage of 960 patches, made by Synthtaste in Germany, Bochum.

The kit includes:
- Complete new semi weight keyboard
- Velocity sensitive matrix for future upgrades, i.e. polyphonic velocity to VCF/VCA
- Mechanical adapters
- Electrical connectors
- New bender board, structure powder coated in original design
- Controller PCB inside the new bender board
- Complete new RAM/EPROM PCB
- The new RAM/EPROM PCB substitutes the old 40 years aged RAM components
- For your REV 3.2 P5 you`ll get 8x 40 presets

I made some new patches and jammed around in this video. There is FX used, a Boss C2 Waza Craft chorus pedal and a Strymon Big Sky reverb pedal. Recorded with Apogee Symphony and Logic Pro X. I didn't use additional effects and mastering, compression.

Enjoy the vid and I hope you like it.
Cheers!"

Roland RS-09 vintage analog organ string synth

"Vintage Roland string machine from the 70's. It features a string and organ voice with divide down oscillators that excel at chorusing polyphony.

Volume, tone (low pass filter), vibrato controls, and octave transpose all function perfectly.

"Drawbars" control the 4 tone characteristics of the organ sound and there is a dual octave/tone switch next to the drawbars, along with Roland's famous ensemble chorus mode on a switchable push button.
The strings section is more aggressive when solo'd but still very pleasing mixed into the organ sound! It features two octave/tone buttons, it's own ensemble chorus, and a slider for slow or fast attack of the envelope.

Beyond that, an envelope section with release mode via flip switch and ensemble mode via flip switch. Both switches only work in 1 of the 2 positions. This is due to the age of the unit itself. The replacement switches are still available on Ebay as New Old Stock (nos) toggle flip switches. The unit functions flawlessly besides these two position switches only having 1 available setting. This is a quick repair for anybody handy with a screw driver and a soldering iron.

Finally a tuning control is on the final potentiometer.
The colored buttons need to be pressed on the bottom of their finger indent, not above them. It confused me at first because i was pressing the LED Intead of the giant ergonomic button... I never owned a Jupiter synthesizer but this is supposedly the organ and strings section from that legendary synth, so lots of history in this unit's circuitry. This is the warmest organ sound I've heard from solid state electronics, and certainly one of the most musical.

Cosmetically it's an 8.5/10 due to slight front right corner housing damage and very subtle and tiny discoloration on a few of the black keys. Probably will wash off, just didn't have it in me to use a cleaner on a vintage synth. It is evidenced in the photos. Neither affect the sound and are unoticable while in use or on stage.

Back panel has audio input for chorus use in Low, Medium, and High volume, sustain input, gate output, organ raw sig output, headphone output and stereo/mono output also with a selectable Low, Medium, and High output.

Only reason I am selling is my gf keeps complaining that I cant keep storing synths in the apartment... I see vintage synths as an investment. They keep going up in value and always bring immense joy to their user, but happy wife happy life, blah blah, so on the bay it goes!"

Fusebox-Analogue Solutions ''Interval generator'' with reverb


Published on Jul 21, 2018 Dziam Bass

"Hi everyone.
I have another movie with Analogue Synthesizer'' Fusebox'' from Analogue Solutions in action.
I added a little reverb which makes it more flexible.
of course there was not a little filter and resonance - because everyone likes to watch them ;-)
I used a lot of fun to use the'' Interval generator'' which raises the pitch from the ''patternator''. Later I picked up a little decay for a longer whore so it made longer sequencing, faster and more attractive.
Check it yourself but remember that this synth is addictive.
Thanks for watching!!!"

Quick play of Dave Smith DSI Prophet X custom patches


Published on Jul 21, 2018 encrust1

"A casual play through of some sounds I'm working on with my Prophet X. Probably not as instructive as the polished 8DIO videos,
but still might help you if you're deciding whether to take the plunge."

Two Microbrutes through 2 Monotribe filter boxes


Published on Jul 21, 2018 Mark Pigott

"Both the Monotribes (the ones on the keyboard cover) have the VCO mute mod. They also process the signals from Left and Right microBrutes. When I am playing off camera synth, this is the MS-20kit(muted) controlling a Dreadbox Abyss."
