Glitchy Beats w/ OP-1 field, NTS-3, Reface dx | Last home 2025-06-14 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"A track built with OP-1 field, Reface DX, Prophet-10, and MOTIF-RACK ES—beat-driven music where glitchy rhythms collide with abstract synth harmonies.
OP-1 field: Triggered over MIDI to play the drum pattern; its signal runs through an NTS-3 for looping and tape-delay effects.
Reface DX: Harmony is sequenced via MIDI while I add live touches; a side-chain compressor in Ableton ducks it to the beat.
Prophet-10: Adds additional synth layers.
MOTIF-RACK ES: Supplies strings, flute, and other PCM textures."
Roland Jupiter 8, with Encore MIDI Kit
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this Reverb listing
"The 8-voice polyphonic Jupiter 8 is an analog monster, regarded by most to be one of the most desirable synthesizers ever manufactured. With two oscillators per voice, a great sounding filter, an arpeggiator, and the ability to split and layer programs, the JP8 was - and still is - hard to beat.
This Jupiter 8 (serial number 181xxx) has the 14-bit DACs instead of the earlier 12-bit ones, so it has improved tuning stability. It has been thoroughly checked over by our techs, and is fully functional and in very nice condition. It has the Encore MIDI kit installed, so it integrates right into a modern setup."

Oberheim Strummer Perf/x Keyboard to Guitar Chord Converter

via this Reverb listing
"The Oberheim Strummer is a MIDI effect processor that transforms keyboard chords into simulated guitar strumming, enabling realistic guitar-like performances from a keyboard. It analyzes MIDI input, adjusts chord voicings, and adds strumming effects, sending the altered MIDI data to a sound source. This is much more than playing an arpeggio or creating a small delay on the notes, the Strummer reinterprets a piano chord voicing into one that would be appropriate on a six-string guitar. Different presets approach the playing differently, from power chords to fingerpicking, to acoustic strumming and lead solos; the results are quite remarkable.
(It also includes a versatile MIDI echo feature, allowing for delays and repeats of notes at varying velocities to simulate audio delay effects.)
Has 4 footswitch jacks, MIDI In and Out. Includes power adaptor and original owner's manual. Measures 9" x 7" x 4""

This pack captures the unmistakable character of Yamaha’s late 1980s 4-operator FM synths, with all their sharp digital edges and lo-fi charm intact. The TQ5, often hidden in the shadow of its more famous siblings, holds a unique place in synthesis history. It delivers angular, glassy tones that feel both futuristic and retro, with a sound design potential that quietly laid the groundwork for timbres now celebrated in modern club music."

Shibasaki MOD - Tokyo set song #3
video upload by Arman Bohn
"My synths and device can be found here:
www.distropolisgoods.com
Song #3 from my set at Shibasaki MOD in Tokyo, April, 2025.
I start with the Prismatic Spray MKii searching around for something showing some fireworks on a new visualization I've been working on...
Then I use the Phantasmal Force to start a sequence on the M8 (which is also MIDI clocked by the PF). I use the PF to unmute various tracks on the M8.
The M8 is also send CC messages to the Prismatic Spray to slowly modulate parameters A, B & C.
It starts in A# - and then moves up a half step to B. The meter gets an extra beat som now we are in 5/4.
Again ...
My guiding principle was - start at A# in 4/4. For each following song, add a beat and move up a half-step chromatically."

Voodoo Ray/A Guy Called Gerald - Novation Circuit version
video upload by Guinan
"Time for the first British acid house hit and another Hacienda favourite. The Manchester act A Guy Called Gerald blew up the Manchester music scene with his 808 and 303 tour-de-force. He's still making excellent music @AGuyCalledGeraldTV #voodooray
Everything you hear was programmed into the Novation Circuit and played ‘live’ straight out of the headphone jack into my phone. No extra effects or outboard gear are used during playback.
The @IsotonikStudios sound pack RB 303 by Yves Big City got me thinking about how capable the Novation Circuit could be for a blast of acid house. I hope this attempt gets close to the flavour of the original. • DEMO - RB 303 - Novation Circuit Pack by Y... [posted here]
@GyuBeats has done some great video breakdowns of the track and is obviously a fan. Big thanks as he helped me track down some of the original samples. • Why Does VOODOO RAY Still Sound Fresh Today?
I also found the following website which is a fantastic resource of patterns for 303-soundalikes. It just had to be called Acid Tabs….. https://acid-tabs.com/303_patterns.ph...
I hope you like the track – drop a comment if there is an 80’s or 90’s track you’d like to see a version of.
Synth nerd details;
The 808 sounds are a mix of samples from Isotonik and a pack that is sometimes free called 808 From Mars.
The vocal samples are from a surprising source of an old comedy routine from Peter Cook and Dudley Moore. The ‘voodoo ray’ sample is actually cut from a snatch of Peter Cook saying 'voodoo rage'.
A key part of the track is the excellent singing of Nicola Collier. I didn’t have a singer to hand and I wasn’t going to impose my dulcet tones on the world. The ‘singing’ is therefore played on the Arturia plug-in ‘Augmented Voices’.
I hope it fills the gap for now and doesn’t detract from the overall track.
All samples are edited and positioned on drum pads then sequenced/played on the Drum 4 track of the circuit."
Voodoo Ray/A Guy Called Gerald (Circuit Tracks & Rolands Version )
video upload by Guinan
"'Say Hello To My Little Friends'…..
Something a little different again. This is a reworking of one of my earlier videos but with an 'acidic' twist. At the time there were comments wondering how it would sound with Roland synths rather than my attempts at recreating the sound using the internal synth engine.
I couldn’t resist the challenge, so the Circuit Tracks has some company in the form of a Roland T-8 and S-1 Aira. The T-8 is a drum machine based on a selection of classic Roland sounds, but it has the added bonus of a very good TB303 emulation.
The Roland S-1 on the other hand is a 4-voice recreation of the classic 80’s synth, the SH-101. An awesome synth in it's own right it's a great partner for the Tracks to use with one of the external MIDI tracks.
Both of these Roland originals were an essential part of the classic Acid House sound and the track, ‘Voodoo Ray’ so this seemed a natural Circuit Tracks project to rework. I’ll keep a separate playlist of any tracks with external gear to keep my main playlist Tracks only.
For this video I’ve copied the patterns across to the Midi 1 & 2 tracks, hooked up both of the Roland individually to the MIDI Out and Thru (setup in Advanced Setup to be individual MIDI Outs). Each of the Roland boxes are then fed into each of the Audio Inputs so they can be panned, level altered and have effects applied individually. Each of the Roland boxes are not using their own sequencers but are just being used as slave MIDI synths playing the patterns sent via MIDI from the Circuit Tracks. T-8 bass was set to MIDI Ch3 and S-1 to Ch4 to match the default channels for these tracks."

"Fantastic Rhodes Chroma Polaris. This Chroma has a new membrane, has been fully serviced including battery, full factory reset/spec, Factory load. Super rich, midi heavy Poly analog. Great integration, expressive w/ pedal and assignments.
The panel was installed a year ago and in that time something did press the surface (see last pic) - no functional issues, but wanted to note the visual since it is a new membrane."

Oberheim Perf/x Cyclone MIDI Arpeggiator/Creator
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this Reverb listing
"Oddly deep and creative performance tool that syncs to din, pulse, and midi clock (or internal). Multi zone control allows for more arpeggios, sequences and loops simultaneously, and a wild set patterning and randomization. The cyclone also maps CC info so you can set up a controller/daw to map functions in real time. Also takes 4 pedals which are fully mappable.
Record modes include as played, step, and gated, and i believe also sysex for the rec buffer. has 16 presets as well."
