Leviasynth With The Tonverk Is Almost TOO MUCH Synth

video upload by EZBOT

"The ASM Leviasynth is the next big synth from ASM Synthesizers, the company that brought the incredibly popular Hydrasynth. The company is also host to popular sound designers and the CFO is none other than the Daniel Troberg, the "Octafather" formerly from Elektron. The Leviasynth is the deepest synth in my collection, offering more customization and shortcuts than any other synth I've picked up. Today, we will discuss it a bit and jam with it via the Elektron Tonverk."

Modular Dub Techno Sounds AMAZING

video upload by EZBOT

"There is something about Dub Techno that I just can't get enough of. Maybe it's the echoing chords and atmospheres, or maybe it's the clean simplicity of the drum programming. Whatever it is modular synthesizers seem to do it the best. The advantage of modular is the fact that we can have so many AAA effects and voices in a single compact case. Today I show you what that can sound like and discuss why it works in this particular 7U 104hp arrangement. Let's make some tunes! Today's featured module is the XAOC Odessa, an additive oscillator with great hands on control."
