MonoKeys Jam Monotribe + Volca Keys + miniKP2

Published on Feb 26, 2014 Arrayzable·18 videos

"I was inspired my the latest video of Micro Banshee [Ocean Beach], which had a single bass line on the Volca Bass and altering chords on his microKORG. Here I change the bass line (MonoTribe) while experimenting on making melody line and chords on the Volca Keys.
The audio is going through the miniKaossPad2 (flanger delay effect).

In this video there are two props refering to two other YouTubers (mutual subbers). Can you guess who they might be and what the relation between the props and the person is??

This little is jam based on one of my microSAMPLER tracks (not uploaded)!

Novation Circuit - un-boxing & first play, micro banshee

Published on Apr 26, 2016 Micro Banshee

"A very quick un-boxing and then first play - after picking up my Novation Circuit.
I’ve had very little time with it, there is really very little instruction supplied with the machine out of the box, so it’s up to the user to ‘discover’ how it works, and it’s fun doing just that!

Streets - JU-06, JP-08, EMX2, Novation Circuit, System-1, TB-3, Volcas

Published on May 15, 2016 Micro Banshee

"Track title - Streets.

Another track putting the Novation Circuit in the mix with my other micro machines, it's also the first track I've used the Roland Boutique JP-08 on, it's a small part as it was late to the party on this track, most of the track had already been mapped out - it's also the first time I've used the sequencer on a boutique.

New look studio, gone is the 3 Tier keyboard stand, back to a table and risers!

"The myVolts mickXer is a 5-way passive mixer with five stereo input channels and one stereo output channel, each with a 1/8" (3.5mm) connection. It gives a high-quality, balanced, noise-reduced output, suitable for recording or live setups.

With the mickXer, you can mix five stereo inputs down to one stereo output. You can, of course, just use just one, two, three or four of the inputs in any configuration that suits your setup.

Please note that the mickXer is not intended as a standalone device and should be connected to either a recorder or amplification device, such as an amp, speakers, or powered headphones.

mickXer works great with any music gear: Korg Volcas, Roland Boutiques, Teenage Engineering Pocket Operators and thousands more
mickXer contains noise filtering technology, removing irritating ground loop hums and other noises. It’s the perfect accessory if you experience any noise using the myVolts Korg Volca 5-way power splitter or myVolts Roland Boutique 5-way power splitter
mickXer is fully passive, so doesn’t need a power supply, or batteries
Microsuction feet let mickXer stick securely but impermanently to almost any surface, while allowing it to be moved and restuck to any surface without leaving any stickiness or residue behind.
Multiple mickXers can be daisy chained, so the possibilities for the ingenuitive desktop musician are limitless
mickXer will also work as an audio signal splitter, but do be aware that amplification is required to drive headphones
mickXer is fully safety and quality tested: it’s CE-certified, RoHS-certified, FCC-certified, EMC-tested
mickXer comes in two colours – Console Black or Go-Faster Red.

Published on Oct 24, 2017 Micro Banshee

Roland Boutique JU-06 ‘Sparkly Lead/Pad’ with Roland Aira System 1, Korg EMX2

Published on Jan 1, 2016 Micro Banshee

"Roland Boutique JU-06 – Pad Demo

A quick video demonstrating a tweaked pad/lead sound I’ve called ‘Sparkly Lead/Pad’ [there is a little delay on the JU-06 from the mixer]

There are lots of video’s showing some of the sounds of the JU-06 but many of them highlight the basses of which this machine was fondly remembered for – but I remember the pads in particular, they were always my favourite.

I used to have a Roland Juno 106 [1988-1992] and lost it to a seedy bunch who were employees of a music store in Newcastle Upon Tyne called ‘Rock City’ the store went bust while they were in possession of my Juno 106 and other synths, [a Roland SH101 being another] because the store was closing down [unkown to me] they thought it was ok to steal customers property, which they did.
