MATRIXSYNTH

Side by side - Minimoog and Prophet '08

"This is not a "Which Is The Best" comparison! I love both of these synths and obviously they aren't really comparable anyway.

So I am running the P8 in 'unison' mode with two OSCs only.

I made this video purely for anyone interested in exactly such a comparison."

DSI Mono Evolver - On The Run by Pink Fl...

"In this clip, I show you how to make 'On The Run' by Pink Floyd, on the Dave Smith Instruments Mono Evolver. The techniques employed here are suitable for any synth, be it soft or hard. :-)"

"To give the tutorial some purpose, I incorporate the sound effects into the 'On The Run' demo."

Percussa Cubes with Resonant Synth

Percussa Cubes with Resonant Synth from Livid Instruments on Vimeo.
"Using the distance sensors on the audio cubes, I'm controlling synth parameters with one cube to "shape" the sound with my hands, then using another as an "exciter" to make the sound happen by waving my hands in front. Much as a violin needs a bow to excite the string to vibrate, and a flute needs air to make its sound, this synth I programmed in Cycling '74's Max/MSP (based on CNMAT's "resonators" object), relies on a virtual breeze from my hands to make sound."

Midify Prototype Game Boy SP Demo

YouTube via Modd3d. Via MODD3D where you can find more info.
"This is a quick prototype demo of Midify, a tiny little board I'm working on that lets you add a MIDI port to a Game Boy or just about anything.

The Game Boy SP is running a synthesizer cartridge that would normally have to be played on the Game Boy buttons. With Midify installed it can be played with a MIDI keyboard, sequencer or whatever.

Check out http://www.division-6.com for more info on the project.

BTW: I already know I can't play keyboard so be nice in the comments. =0)"

Update via Scott in the comments:
"I'm trying to finish the boards up by the end of the month. I'd love to hear some feedback on what you would use them for and what you would like to see them do. I've started a forum for them:

Matti Bye playing the Korg MS-10

YouTube via RothHandle
"Over the last couple of weeks me and Matti Bye have been working on an album of music inspired by the circus. This project has been a wonderful collaboration and the material we have recorded so far sounds nothing short of eerie, funny and amazing.

In this short film Matti is playing the Korg MS-10.

I have worked with Matti before but oddly enough we have never actually recorded anything. Matti is a very well known composer for film scores and he has also written music for silent movies as well playing live to the actual film.

This film was shot at Roth Händle studios in Stockholm. It is where I spend most of amy awake time recording the instruments that are there. In 1997 I bought my first Mellotron and then a couple of months later a MIni Moog and the studio has grown steadily since then. In 2001 I got my first own room at an old abandoned shipyard and I have since then moved twice. The studio is now located in Sundbyberg (about 15 minutes from Stockholms central). If you are curious about the studio, booking, blogs and/or the instruments that are there please take a stroll by www.roth-handle.nu
The studio is available for booking"
