NAMM 2022 - NINA Motorized Polysynth
video upload by sonicstate
"You've maybe seen the the teases on the Tonelab.tv Instagram feeds, but this new machine is a 1st as far as we know. Its a 12 voice poly synth with motorized knobs that actually move when changing patches and also when morphing.
Features:
12 Voice Polyphony.
Motorized recallable and automatable control panel using long lasting zero wear encoders with the feel and precision of analog pots.
Variable shape triangle oscillators. Continuously morph wave-shape between triangle and sawtooth to find new timbres. Different to a traditional blend.
4 pole transistor ladder VCF with modulatable resonance.
Massive voice-level filter overdrive.
Digital Wavetable Oscillators.
Sampling capability.
Deep Modulation Matrix. Quick edit, all sources to all destination.
Patch morphing for complex expressive effects.
Stereo Infinite Panning effects with 4 Quadrant DCAs.
Onboard digital effects.
Multitimbral, layered, split, or overlapping.
Hackable open-source software control powered by Raspberry Pi 4.

How to faithfully record an SP1200, TR808, TR909 or MPC into a DAW
video upload by TONELAB
"There's a few ways you can integrate the 'old dogs' with 'new tricks'.. most believe Synchronization is the answer.. and in many scenarios 'sync' is a great option, but.. if the results aren't making you happy then this clip should give you another method of retaining the 'feel' of your vintage beat boxes and sequencers.

The 1986 Akai S900 / S950 MIDI Digital Sampler Complete Walk-through
video upload by TONELAB
"Well, here it is, finally.. I’m terribly sorry for those that have been waiting patiently, but the ‘lock-downs’ have caused some unforeseen issues that have threw a few hurdles my way. It feels like the S900/S950’s are having another day in the sun and there appears to be a lot of questions being asked about the features. So, while in this very strict lock-down, I decided to put everything I have into a #viewtorial on the S900, a lot of these functions should also work on the S950, but this is in no way a dedicated S950 tutorial, as much as it is 'a sharing of knowledge' for the features that appear on both.
I hope this helps to dispel some rumors and show you how to get around your S900 ..or perhaps, if you’re considering purchasing one, then I hope this helps you understand the kind of workflow you may be getting yourself into. Either way, here’s hoping you can turn confusion into creation with this walk-through of the amazing #S900.

The 1982 Roland SRE 555 / RE 501 Chorus Echo with Emulator II, Jupiter 6 demo
video upload by TONELAB
Synthesizer Video Service Blofeld posts
"The 1982 Chorus Echo from Roland marked the end of the Tape Echo, I find these units make you go “mmmMMM…” which, in this case, means.. magical, mysterious, mesmerising and mechanical! ..this unit provides a ghostly, dream-state-like ambience to just about anything you put into it. Sit back, relax and come on a journey back to 1982 thru to current day with the help of some sounds from the E-mu Emulator II, the Roland Jupiter 6 & the MPC X ..through this mesmerising mechanical machine.
I requested an interview with the engineer of the Chorus Echo, but he declined due to the fact he doesn’t like repeating himself 😂 🤦🏻♂️

video upload by T O N E L A B
"In this demo, I take you on a tour through Roland's most popular single-oscillator, synth from 1982... The Juno 60! a rich sounding, yet very modest synth..some pedigree declare it the finest single-osc. ever?! ..hmm, but it is tough trying to think of something that gives this thing shade!
First half of this demo is a virtual 'walk-thru' of the features.. then towards the end is a walk-through of how to use the Tape Interface to backup the sound-patches to a D.A.W. (Logic Pro X)

Roland Juno 6 Analogue Synthesizer Demo Doodle - No Talking!
video by T O N E L A B
"In this demo we take a look at a classic analogue synth from 1982... The Roland Juno 6, a rich sounding, yet basic synth.. a very modest single oscillator one may agree. 6-note polyphony, no MIDI, no USB (well.. it IS from 1982!), no saving of sounds.. you're lucky you get 61 keys with it! ..however, there is an External Clock-input... which provides the on-board 'Arpeggiator' with a single note 'trigger' from an external device such as the Roland TR-808 or TR-909... or, alternatively.. something more modern like a MultiClock from E-RM.
This demo was taken from the end of my full Juno 6 tutorial here: [below]

First half of this demo is a virtual 'walk-thru' of the features.. or 'view-torial' if you prefer?! ...then the 2nd half is some 'noodling' around with the Valhalla Shimmer Reverb for added 'drama'.. which gives the Juno 6 a very 'Blade Runner' esque... frothy sound and feel."

Roland Juno 6, Juno 106 & Jupiter 6 analog synth lockdown demo session
video by T O N E L A B
"All sounds generated by the Roland Juno 6, Juno 106 & Jupiter 6 + effects & EQ.
In roman mythology, Juno was ‘the Queen of Gods’ and the wife of the supreme deity Jupiter. She is also the daughter of Saturn and the mother of Mars. The month of June is named after the Roman Goddess Juno and celebrates the marriage of the two protectors of Rome (No wonder June is a popular month for weddings!) but, since I’m not married.. and stuck in lockdown.. I think it’s a good opportunity to demonstrate exactly what amazing and versatile synths these are.
I’ll be doing a stack of short demos with various effects and recorded in 24Bit / 48kHz WAV format. These demos will be made available for a small purchase price into sample packs, but more like sample ‘stems’ really..
All sounds are from the #Juno6 #Juno106 & #Jupiter6 + some reverb and some delays from Soundboy 'Echoboy' and H-Delay from Waves + some Bricasti M7 Reverb & EQ."
