The Analogue Solutions Nyborg 12- Sounds of the Nyborg 12 Overview Videos by AutomaticGainsay

Published on Oct 19, 2015 AutomaticGainsay

"Here are several 'songs' that were made entirely with the Analogue Solutions Nyborg 12 synthesizer. All musical tones you hear were generated with the Nyborg 12.

All of the songs were multitracked in one way or another for polyphony.

Sequencing was provided by the DSI Pro 2 sequencer. Live performances were provided by the hands of Marc Doty. Drums were comprised of beats programmed with the Korg Gadget and occasional supplemental loops from GarageBand.

If you enjoy these videos, or benefit from them, or both, how about considering heading on over to Patreon.com and becoming a supporter of Automatic Gainsay?
I'll be your best frieeeennnnnd! :)

Thank you to Analogue Solutions for their superior synthesizers, and for their allowing me to make these videos. And their patience."

01-Analogue Solutions Treadstone- Song Demonstration 1

Published on Jun 27, 2018 AutomaticGainsay

"Here is a musical example of the sound of the Analogue Solutions Treadstone. All of the synth sounds were created with the Treadstone, and are presented without effect or equalization. The drums and percussion sounds were created and sequenced on a Korg Triton LE.

The Treadstone is a shockingly powerful synthesizer for its size, and is also the smallest modern synthesizer with its level of vintage analog tone.

The Buchla 250e: When testing turns into music-making...

Published on Mar 3, 2018 AutomaticGainsay

"As many of you might know, I work for Buchla now. Part of my job is to test modules. As a synthesist and composer, my testing procedure can occasionally take on a shape that is a little more creative than practical (but always effective, of course!).

In the midst of testing this 250e, I discovered that my somewhat-random initial knob twists to test the outer ring voltages implied a melody that I liked. So, I tuned it to be a little more specifically to that melody. Then I added a counter melody in the second of the voltage outputs. I created some interesting and complimentary timbres out of what started out as sine waves coming from the 259e and 261e.

Once I had created the sequence, I started messing around with Stage Addressing, because it will create new and different musical outcomes from your original creation.

Keep in mind that this is a test, and is a bit rough around the edges... but I found that the melody and countermelody stuck with me after the test, and felt like I needed to record it in some way. I figure if a test is musical enough that it gets stuck in my head, I should probably preserve it.

I hope you enjoy my first posting of a Buchla product!
