"Out Friday 14th July 2023
I'm back with a follow up Bank for the fantastic Sequential Take 5. Essence Vol 2 contains 128 all new Patches, with emphasis on playable Sounds, not weird Sound FX.

V2 Firmware added some great new features such as OSC 2 to be bypassed from the Filter, Vintage as a destination and many others, which I have fully taken advantage of. Many of the Patches utilise the excellent FM Function for unusual tones.

Here are the first 32 demonstrated, hope you enjoy them and watch out for the other 3 Videos."

Improvisation in the Vangelis' Style / Homage to Vangelis (Complete)

video upload by Gabriel Lehto

"Yesterday I dreamed that I had met Vangelis.
It was very real and very very emotional to me.
I always loved the Vangelis' music and since his passage I was very sad with his lost.

This is a complete improvisation that I recorded in the same day that I dreamed with the master Vangelis.

I used just Yamaha DX7 Mk II, some small sound effects by Logic's Alchemy (in the background) + Eventide Blackhole and Valhala Shimmer.

Hope you like it!"

"Superb Roland MRS-2 Promars.

It's near in perfect condition, which is rare for a synth that age.

A very raw, meaty duophonic synth with the addition of the second oscillator that can be detuned and a killer VCF.

Favored by Depeche Mode and Vangelis, this synth has the Midi I/O installed for CC and Sysex, in addition to the CV/Gate inputs.

Revised in 2020 at reputable Belltone in Philadelphia, the power supply was recapped, made US-Voltage compatible and fully calibrated as it is from Japan originally.

It comes with the rare original case."

New Cherry Audio Mercury-6 Reveal

video upload by Cherry Audio

Update: user videos added below.

"Cherry Audio's Mercury-6 is a virtual synthesizer instrument that emulates and expands on the renowned Jupiter-6, just in time for its 40th anniversary! Mercury-6 captures all that is exceptional in this treasured polyphonic classic, boosts its extraordinary feature set for today's DAW production and workflow, and celebrates the ground-breaking innovation from the era that changed music forever. If you've long yearned to explore the Jupiter-6, you'll love Mercury-6!"

via Cherry Audio

Mercury-6 is a meticulous recreation of the Jupiter-6 analog synthesizer, just in time for its 40th anniversary! Sandwiched between the earlier Jupiter-4 and Jupiter-8 models in name only, the sophisticated Jupiter-6 has sometimes been considered a sleeper release. These days, it has persevered to become one of Roland's most notable and coveted classic synthesizers due to its distinctive dark and complex character. Mercury-6 captures all that is exceptional in this treasured polyphonic classic, boosts its extraordinary feature set for today's DAW production and workflow, and celebrates the ground-breaking innovation from the era that changed music forever.

If you've long yearned to explore the Jupiter-6, you'll love Mercury-6!

The Year Everything Changed

Released in 1983 as a more affordable alternative to the flagship eight-voice Jupiter-8, the six-voice Jupiter-6 nevertheless staked out an essential position in the history of analog polysynths. Though similar in appearance and feature set, the Jupiter-6 stood apart from the Jupiter-8 in its sound and capabilities. Unlike earlier Roland polysynths with lowpass filters plus a rudimentary non-resonant highpass filter, the Jupiter-6 featured a true multimode filter with 24 dB/oct lowpass, 24 dB/oct highpass, or 12 dB/oct bandpass modes. This versatile filter design lent a more aggressive sound than previous Jupiters, making the Jupiter-6 a natural for cutting-edge techno and electro styles.

Though something of a "hidden feature," the Jupiter-6 VCOs supported multiple simultaneous waveforms, and its two LFOs and oscillator cross mod capabilities provided extensive modulation possibilities. Its earthshaking solo and poly unison modes enabled massive lead and bass sounds, and it was notably one of the first synthesizers to include the then-new MIDI protocol.

Although often praised for its harmonic complexity and ability to cut through a mix, the cost-cutting in the Jupiter-6 design resulted in some disadvantages. Output was mono only and it was limited to six-voice polyphony. The Jupiter-6 had an impressive (for the time) split keyboard and patch preset storage functionality, but this six-voice maximum hampered its potential. And though it was considerably less expensive than the Jupiter-8, its timing was ill-fated when the digital revolution was ignited by the release of Yamaha's revolutionary DX-7 FM digital synth the same year.

Despite its noteworthy character, the Jupiter-6 is not one of those synths immediately identified with recognizable sounds from hit songs. Nevertheless, it was the Jupiter-6 behind the bass line of Ray Parker Jr.'s classic "Ghostbusters," and it found purchase in the work of Human League, Tangerine Dream, Thomas Dolby, Trans-X, Vangelis, and Devo. In a testament to its staying power over the decades, its popularity grew in genres such as big beat, house, and techno through The Chemical Brothers, Moby, and The Crystal Method. Electronic music duo Orbital has been a vocal proponent of the Jupiter-6 and, more recently, it has been a significant part of the sound of Daft Punk and Junkie XL.

Mercury-6: 40 Years in the Making

Cherry Audio's Mercury-6 brings the Jupiter-6 experience into the future and celebrates the invaluable contribution that MIDI itself has made to the music community over the past 40 years. Mercury-6 captures all that is exceptional in this classic and boosts the extraordinary feature set and functionality for today's DAW production and workflow. We've added velocity sensitivity, improved the split mode, and added a layer mode capable of stacking two different sounds simultaneously with per-layer stereo panning, detuning, and sustain. A panel control lets users easily select and navigate between these layers and includes a utility function for exchanging settings between the lower and upper layers, or even between presets. And with polyphony extended to 16 notes, Mercury-6 won't easily run out of voices.

We've reproduced the arpeggiator, including the hidden Down/Up mode of the original, and augmented it by adding a Random mode and MIDI tempo sync. A chord memory mode enables multiple notes to be stored and played back with a single key. We've improved the functionality of the LFOs with a retrigger for LFO-1 and an always-on option for LFO-2, both syncable to MIDI tempo.

We've also introduced an integrated studio-quality effects panel with brilliant-sounding distortion, phaser, flanger/chorus, delay, and reverb. With additional touches such as per-layer drift control, over 500 expertly designed presets, and flexible MIDI mapping, Mercury-6 will satisfy both vintage synth aficionados and today's music producer.

Mercury 6 vs Jupiter 6 // Does the Cherry Audio sound like the Roland ...?
video upload by Starsky Carr

"How does the Mercury 6 stack up against the original? Cherry Audio are killing it with these releases, and this one is great. I can't think of another Jupiter 6 emulation out there. It was quite a unique synth in its day with a super fast LFO (100Hz), sync 2-ways, cross mod with modulation, a second LFO and bitimbral. Quite a cool thing.

Here I've not lingered on the more prosaic functions and sound. We all know the Cherry Audio stuff sounds good - so here I've dug into if it's doing those Jupiter 6 specialities like Cross Mod and Sync...

and also because the hardware was dying!! Another good reason for getting thew software :) I had to finish this before it cut out..!

Three Yamaha CS80s – Live in Action!

"I have taken the last 3 live takes I recorded & play them simultaneously to show an exciting interaction of 3 CS80s jamming together!

Since the release of my video - “Yamaha CS80: The Most Iconic Sound Machine of All Time”, I’ve had requests for specific videos including:
Famous tracks using the CS80
How to program a CS80
CS80 vs the Jupiter 8
Could you demo the bass line from the 1980 Doctor Who theme?
Have you recorded any of your performances where you (a) demonstrate technique on the instrument??

& more.

So today – as requested – I have built an instrumental from scratch & recorded exclusively the CS80 to do all the parts.

I have split the video into 4 separate videos

"Welcome to #KadImprov Sessions #7: 'Sunset: Los Angeles, November, 2022' - Homage to #Vangelis. Thank you for the inspiration.

I was inspired to call this track Sunset, because to me it feels like a transition. A wavering moment between day and night.

Main chords on the #ProphetRev2. I wanted to try the #KORG #NTS1 for the arpeggio drone sound together with the #electroharmonix Frequency Analyzer.

Drone sounds provided by the #EricaSynths SYNTRX, base drum and thumping sound designed with the #Moog #Mother32.

Thank you for watching and for your feedback."
