The Strange Machine Behind Some of Rock’s Greatest Songs

video upload by Parlogram

"The sound of the Mellotron is legendary and has over the past 60 years featured in so many great songs by groups such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Zombies, King Crimson and so many others. In this video we visit the most comprehensive, if not the best collection of these wonderful instruments in the world. We look at all the Mellotron models from first to the latest and demonstrate every one too. We hope you have as much fun watching this video as we did making it.

AE Machine | Architecture For Drums That Never Repeat & Oxide Virtual Tape Processor

video upload by Emiliano

"One practical note: listen to this on monitors or proper headphones. Most of what the machine does lives in the low end and in the stereo field, and laptop speakers will simply delete it. Loud is not necessary, full range is."

This one was spotted and sent in via Ivan Trajkovic aka deejayiwan. There are 21 videos in the playlist above. They mainly focus on AE Machine as a whole, but video 7 is focused on Oxide. You'll find the full video descriptions for the first and seventh videos further below. You can find full details on AE Machine at https://www.peamarte.it/ae - Oxide in chapter 52 of the user manual.

In short, AE Machine (estimated release date of October 2) consists of:

"Eleven synthesis voices built from scratch at sample level, five samplers, two free-running pads. A sequencer where a 16 × 16 Markov matrix decides which step may follow which, a note sieve that re-orchestrates the pattern when you transpose it, a chaotic modulation matrix reaching 271 parameters, morphing between any two presets, and a stem recorder that writes twenty-six files in one press. It runs in Max/MSP 9 on macOS and Windows, and playing it requires no paid Max license: an unlicensed copy of Max opens and runs the machine in full.

This is not commercial software in the ordinary sense. It is my working method, the environment I built night after night for my own music, packaged so that you can play it. When you get it, you are getting research: the reading, the listening, the failed versions, the decisions. The manual is a hundred pages and it is already here, whole, free to read. Trust your ears over any paragraph in it."

Motionless // Teenage Engineering OP-1f and Ableton Live ambient

video upload by Stefano Mattia

"I made this piece on my OP-1f a few days after my neighbour’s cat died. We found him motionless on the terrace, under the rain.

I had seen him around many times, in the ordinary way you notice the familiar things around you without really thinking about them.

I don’t have much else to say about it. I just made this small piece and somehow it felt right to dedicate it to him."

ELECTROID Schlappy jam

video upload by SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING and Stazma

"Schlappy Funk Saturday!

Heavy crunchy feedback phase modulation tone and parallel, stereo, dual Bandpass filter patch to add some vocal life to the thing.
Resetting the Nibblers manually once in a while will give some new patterns to the filter modulation.

Classic 880 on the beat and syncing everything.
