ambient synth live | OP-1, Kaleidoscope, Arturia Pigments, NI Reaktor

video upload by Mamotreco

"I played some extra layers of reverberating synth ambience on the Teenage Engineering OP-1, Kaleidoscope by Vadim Minkin processed through the Teenage Engineering EP-135 Sidekick Mixer as well as additional plate reverb and tape echo emulation in Ableton Live as I was recording in. Ableton Live was playing back a composition with Arturia Pigments, NI Reaktor ensembles (Razor, Steampipe 2), GForce Software OB-X synth plugins

Skiff 2.0: a new sequencer, songs that chain, your own drum kits (M-VAVE FM-1)

video upload by Skiff

You can find the M-VAVE FM-1 on Amazon.

"Skiff 2.0 is out: free, open-source firmware that turns the M-VAVE FM-1 into a six-track groovebox, and M-VAVE's SMK-37 Pro keyboard too. This video shows what's new in 2.0 and 2.0.1, set to one song made on it: a new sequencer (notes that overlap, NOTES and FEEL on a selection, copy and paste), songs that chain, play once and change sounds, drum lanes panned and your own drum kits, one mute, one MOD page and one shaper, new save formats with a converter, and 2.0.1's fixes.

Everything you hear is Skiff 2.0.1's own code playing that song: the firmware's source, run on a computer, so the sound and the screens line up to the frame. Every sound comes from its engines and two user sample kits, and every key, button and knob shown is a player's, performed in the firmware at its bar. Nothing was added afterwards; only the overall level was set. The song is played with MENU › SYSTEM › CPU on 2 CORES (BETA): 12 voices. The FM-1 is drawn in 3D, its screen Skiff's own display. The editor and installer pages are the real 2.0.1 pages, the editor on its built-in demo device."

video upload by xu.sounddesign - dirk rohde

"This is the first demo of my new soundpack 'DARKSIDE" with 50 (!!!) new patches I have designed for Isla Electronics´ 'Asyx' Andromeda and for the original Alesis Andromeda A6.

No external effects were used in the demos. All effects are internal effects of the Asyx. No other hardware was used. No compressor, no limiter, no equalizer, nothing, but the pure Asyx.

All in all there are 50 (!!!) new patches in the package with all sounds of relaxation, grainy drones, organic textures and deep pads.I designed all the sounds myself.

If you´re interested in the soundpack "DARKSIDE", please send me an email (xu.sounddesign@gmx.net). Please check your spam-folder."
