Devi Ever USA : AR OK : drum / synth hack


YouTube via wwwEFFECTOR13com. Title link takes you to more.

"The OK Artifact is the epitome of what I originally envisioned the Artifact line of effects to me; random mutations that are odd, yet strangely useful.

In this case, the OK is another descendant of the "Punch Love" circuitry which has become everything from the AR 33 to the AR 05.

Now it's the OK, a strange fuzz / overdrive that changes it's character around buffered bypass pedals (and other pedals in general when on), but by itself creates a strange stuttering sound on high guitar strings, and a gutteral fuzz on the lower strings.

On bass, it totally rawks, but I'll have clips for that later.

A truly experimental device in all regards. Only 10 components on the PCB. Doesn't take much for strangeness to occur in audio electronics!

Teisco SX 400 Patch


YouTube via tardis454.

"The Teisco SX-400, a rare and obscure synth made by the Kawai/Teisco company back in 82'...Back in 82!!(Napoleon Dynamite). I don't think many people have these synths, and if they do it's probably broken. Mine is 95% functional. Here's a decent patch of what the SX-400 can do"

Elepian

* 3 decay settings
* 2 organ settings
* 2 harpsicord settings (brass/wood)
* control of vibrato (speed/depth)
* sharp to flat tunning dial

Waldorf Q

Title link takes you to shots via this auction.

Everyone has a synth that got away. This was it for me. I ended up with the newer blue Q Rack at a Sam Ash blowout for only $650, and I love it, but... I always wished I bought a brand new older blue Q keyboard instead.

YouTube via worrydream.

"A little jam on the Alesis Micron. Leave a note if you like it, and I'll record more!

For the curious: This is all a single setup I made, called "Sunset", using stock programs. Here's what's inside:

Part A (lower octave): "SunsetPad" 4-bar pattern using "Solar Wire" program.
Part B (lower octave): "SunsetBassline" 4-bar pattern using "JacoInTheBox" program.
Part C (upper octaves): "Sandpaper Lead" program. Z-knob is mapped to fuzz pedal level.
Part D (upper octaves): "Arp Answering" arpeggio pattern using "EP? OK!" program.
Part E: "HH Hardcore" drum program, overriding drum B in the beats.
Part F (low D): "PR Squirch" drum program.
Beat A (low C): "Minimal 1" rhythm, latched.
Beat B (low C#): "Roll 01" rhythm.
Beat C (low D): "What Up 4" rhythm, latched"
