From DIY to Cult Legend: The Serge Synthesizers Story

video upload by Bleeps and Boops

"Most people know the sound of a Moog or a Roland, but the Serge is a different beast entirely.

In this video (Part 1 of 2), I’m diving into the history of the 'West Coast' synthesis revolution. California, hippies, tape loops, Buchla, Moog and how Serge Tcherepnin created a synthesizer legend.

Huge thanks to ‪@serge-modular‬ for the loan of this glorious beast, and keep and eye out for Part 2!

Thanks for watching!"

FutureRetro Announces 777 Re-issue

via Kickstarter

"The Return of a Legend - Our Re-issue of the 777 analog synthesizer with Updated Sequencer Features from the Revolution and Swynx!

In 1997, The 777 was the first 303 clone to include the all-important sequencer, and provide real-time editing of patterns during playback. However, it really was much more than a clone..

...The first 30 units produced were the purple 777 models. Approximately 25 of the blue 777 models were then produced. There were 7 custom hand-brushed silver front panels created, and only 3 of those were ever sold to the public. The white 777 is the only one in existence. The majority of 777’s produced were the black and white models. Notice these models had slightly different screen-printing with the 777 name typed out instead of using a symbol like the first models had. ...It sounded fabulous but also caused the output to increase drastically in volume. So a completely new overdrive stage was implemented on later models that kept the output more consistent as the overdrive was increased. I would say later models had a cleaner sound overall, and slightly better stability.

All 777’s were hand assembled, and the first 200 plus units of the 777 were made entirely by myself. It took at least 8 hours to assemble a single unit. As demand grew for the 777, I hired another hand assembly company to do the majority of component placement, while I focused on final assembly, testing, and tuning of each unit, and the day-to-day chores of running a business. The 777 quickly became the acid synth of choice by many well known artists including: Skylab2000, Uberzone, The Chemical Brothers, The Crystal Method, KMFDM, Nine Inch Nails, Jason Nevins, Air Liquide, Alex Gopher, Richie Hawtin, Aphex Twin, BT, The Juan MacLean, Terra Firma/Union Jack, Nortec Collective, Atomic Babies, Electric Skychurch, and many others. Bands like Hardfloor and Plastikmand inspired the original concept for the 777, with the minimal acid house music they were creating using only a drum machine or two, and a TB-303.

I wanted to create similar music using only the 777, as digital multi-tracking was becoming more accessible at that time. The 777 provided built in distortion to achieve those ripping acid leads that were becoming popular, and also provided enough additional circuitry to allow analog percussion and other sounds to be generated. The 777 was originally called the Bassix, which can be seen printed on the PC boards. Although it was never publicly called this, it was simply a nickname given during development. This was a derived combination of the TB-303’s “Bassline” name and the TR-606’s “Drumatix” name. As this unit could sound like the 303, but its sequencer operated more like the 606 with its live note entry and editing features.

In 2003 production of the 777 stopped, with a total of 678 units being produced in all. These units quickly became collector like commodities, and continue to command high prices in the used market. We are very excited to bring it back! As of 2025 we have been prototyping the 777 for over 2 years to bring it back to the market. We have been through many iterations of the analog board in order to make it sound as much like my personal vintage unit while also designing it for manufacture.

Now we are asking for you help to do it the way we would like to. We are wanting to upgrade the processor and code base so that we have the ability to include the remix feature from the Revolution/Orb sequencers as well as the time signatures and swing features from the SWYNX!"

Roger Linn: The King of Drum Machines

video upload by Jack Pearson

"This is the story of Roger Linn, a guitarist from Los Angeles whose innovative sample based drum machines changed the sound of music forever.

Special thanks to Roger himself for featuring my video in the September Linnstrument newsletter (https://myemail.constantcontact.com/L...) and on his website (https://www.rogerlinndesign.com).

I first learned about Roger a few years ago while making a film called “The History of Sampling in Music” [below]. While I didn’t know anything about Roger at the time, I was astounded to learn that he had created both the LinnDrum and the MPC, which shaped the punchy robotic drums of 80s pop music and the grungy experimental grooves of 90s hip-hop respectively. I did a quick bit of research about him for my video, but didn’t really dig much deeper than that… However, a few months ago I decided to rewatch my old project, which reignited my interest in Roger’s story and gave me the idea for this video.

Like my previous project, I’d initially planned to write a script and do a voice-over, but after discovering the assortment of recorded interviews that Roger has already appeared in, I realised that I could just chop them up and have Roger tell his own story. I thought 'hey that sounds pretty cool, how hard could it be?'

Well, let’s just say I’m probably never going to do something like this again. I did enjoy making this and I am proud of it, but if I had just done a voice-over not only would it have been easier to make, but I also could’ve included a lot information without it feeling incredibly clunky. The initial cut was about 26 minutes, but I cut out loads of stuff for the sake of pacing and trying to stick to narrative beats. Roger is a fascinating guy with a lot of great anecdotes though, so if you enjoyed this video then I highly recommend you seek out some of the podcasts/interviews he’s done over the years.

I planned on making all the music for this film myself, but decided it would be better to use music that relates to Roger in some way (for example, he co-wrote 'Promises' by Eric Clapton and 'Quittin’ Time' by Mary Chapin Carpenter, and first used the LM-1 Drum Computer on the Leon Russell album 'Life & Love' which featured the track 'One More Love Song'.) I salvaged one of these demo tracks for the credits, but you can listen it and a few more scrapped tracks here:

Jack Pearson · RL:TKODM (Credits Music + Demos)

Since you’ve read this far, here’s a few bonus Roger facts that got cut out of the video:

The LM-1 was featured on the best selling album of all time - 'Thriller' by Micheal Jackson, as well as other early 80s hits like 'Maneater' by Hall & Oates, 'Valerie' by Steve Winwood, and for some reason - the original 1983 Thomas the Tank Engine theme song.

Roger hired his friend, a professional session drummer called Art Wood, to record most of the sounds on the LM-1. They set up the kit in Roger’s closet, recording each of the drums one at a time… then called it a day. Given the popularity of the songs featuring these recordings - Art Wood is technically one of most prominently featured drummers of all time.

And here's two bonus facts about this video:

The title 'The King of Drum Machines' is a quote from the father of MIDI - Dave Smith, when he spoke about Roger and the Tempest drum machine (which they built together) on a Sweetwater panel in 2015. [below]

This video was released on Roger’s 70th birthday.

The Inventors of Synth (Roger Linn, Dave Smith & Tom Oberheim) - Sweetwater Gearfest 2015

video upload by Sweetwater

"Join Mitch Gallagher as he moderates 'The Inventors of Synth' panel discussion at Gearfest '15. Featuring industry icons Dave Smith, Tom Oberheim, and Roger Linn discussing their thoughts on the past, present, and future of analog synthesizers and controllers.

Legendary synth designer and Grammy-winner Dave Smith was the founder of Sequential Circuits in the mid-'70s. His Prophet-5, the world's first fully programmable polyphonic synth, was the first musical instrument with an embedded microprocessor. Dave is also known as the driving force behind the development of the MIDI specification. He has continued to innovate, and recently unveiled his latest synth creation, the Sequential Prophet-6.

A pioneer of the synth and MIDI world, Tom Oberheim co-designed the Synthesizer Expansion Module (SEM), a device that allowed musicians to simultaneously combine live playing and sequenced playback - a concept that pre-dated the MIDI revolution. In 1981, he, along with Roland's Ikutaro Kakehashi and Sequential's Dave Smith, developed the MIDI spec, which changed the course of modern music. Tom recently re-released his famed Two Voice synth.

Technical Grammy award-winner Roger Linn invented the LM-1 Drum Computer (the first sample-based drum machine) in 1979. He later designed the Akai MPC60, which combined a sampling drum machine with a real-time MIDI sequencer. His guitar effects unit, AdrenaLinn, has been used on hit recordings by John Mayer and Red Hot Chili Peppers. In 2014 he released the LinnStrument, an expressive MIDI performance controller."

The Beatles’ “Here Comes the Sun” - SYNTH PARTS YOU’VE NEVER HEARD BEFORE!

video upload by Anthony Marinelli Music

"I’m going to take you on a quest into one of The Beatles’ most iconic songs, 'Here Comes the Sun', and show you something I recently discovered, that really surprised me. — THERE ARE SYNTHESIZERS IN THIS ACOUSTIC AND ORGANIC SOUNDING TRACK!

I’ll break down the arrangement of this beautiful song and show you how to create all the synth sounds that were used to transcend it's sound. We’ll cover everything from the signature whistle sound, the main lead synth, the intro sound, and the buzzy synth bass that gives the track its vibe. I’ll also discuss the Beatles’ evolution as they started experimenting with effects on traditional instruments, which ultimately led them to integrate synthesizers in ways that completely reshaped what others thought possible.

They used the Moog synthesizer to replace orchestral parts in some sections of the song and to complement the acoustic elements in others. It was all about pushing the boundaries of what was possible at the time but still keeping their unique voice in tact.

What makes this even more special is that I’ve recreated these sounds on my rare, vintage 1969 Moog IIIc — the same model that was shipped just months after The Beatles received their own Moog directly from Bob Moog. This instrument, used on the 'Plantasia' album by Mort Garson, is in fully working order, so it’s my chance to give you a sense of the subtle nuances The Beatles heard when they first explored this revolutionary sound in their music. I’ll bring you as close to the original sound as possible and show you exactly how they used it in 'Here Comes the Sun'.

So, grab your synths (or just sit back and enjoy), and let’s take a closer look at how The Beatles incorporated this groundbreaking technology into their timeless music. You might just discover something new about one of the most loved songs in history and how you can do the same in your music today.

Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell so you don’t miss out on any of the synth goodness I have coming your way! Also, check out my course Think Like a Synth to learn the exact method I've used for decades on hit records and films — and still use today.

Lego Minimoog

This one was spotted and sent in via
M Me.

It's actually from the official Lego site as a concept idea you can vote on. Don't miss the pics of the inside below.

From Lego Ideas:

"From the moment it hit store shelves back in 1970, the Minimoog signalled the start of a musical revolution. It was the first synthesizer ever to be sold in retail stores, and over its original 13 year run sold over 12,000 units. It became a cultural icon and transformed how music was produced and performed in and out of the studio, leaving its mark across a huge variety of genres: prog rock, jazz, funk, pop and disco are but to name a few.

This project submission serves to honour the legacy of one of music history's most iconic instruments. Captured at 1:1 scale, this faithful recreation replicates the look and feel of this legendary synthesizer inside and out. With rotating knobs and pitch wheels, pushable keys and a rotating control panel. The rear of the control panel is even removable, revealing the collection of circuits and electronics inside that truly bring this model to life!

As an avid electronic music listener and (very amateur!) producer. I wanted to make product idea that follows with my passion, and provides a great display piece for fellow music fans, that would fit right alongside other music-themed sets Lego has produced in the past.

If you yourself are a fan of music production or music history, then please consider supporting the project! Any and all support or feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thank you !"

SOR Waldorf Microwave Presets | Unique patches for Techno and Melodic House production

video upload by SoundsOfRevolution

https://www.sounds-of-revolution.com/...

"SOR Waldorf Microwave Presets offers 131 patches (67 programs and 64 multis/splits) for Waldorf Microwave 1. You get evolving ambient textures, organic pads, classic house stabs, hard-pumping basses, unique effects, glassy, cold, powerful leads, and many wonderful analog-sounding patches. The presets are modern and retro and go well with every genre of electronic music. You can modify most sounds via Aftertouch, Bender, and/or Modulation.

As this unusual Synth never fails to impress with its distinct sound, I have added the Microwave 1 plugin to my SOR-Blog under 'Best Synth VST Plugins'. I really enjoy these slightly gritty, broken wavetable tones and the powerful filter, which sounds truly unique. It’s simply a fantastic recreation of a classic!

The download of ‘SOR Waldorf Microwave Presets’ includes the original synth patches (MIDI File dump) I produced for the classic hardware synthesizer (128 patches), as well as a revised and perfected new version for the Plugin (131 patches). 24 MIDI files are also included for musical inspiration and context; you can hear them in the demo.

Please note: Since the Microwave has no internal effects, a few standard effect plugins were used for the demo. All sounds, except the drums, are from the Microwave 1 plugin.

Requirements: Waldorf Microwave 1 Plugin or Waldorf Microwave 1 Hardware Synthesizer"
