Buchla starts at 1:09, but do watch the intro.

"This is my 2nd piece of Musique Concrète created with tape splicing, speed manipulation, over tracking, and filtering. The original sounds came from a Buchla synthesizer and then were tape manipulated into this composition. This tape spliced piece was completed in 1980 at the Unv. of Arkansas Electronic Music Laboratory under the direction of Professor Dale Millen. It was created on a classic Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center tape station consisting of 4 Ampex 1/4 inch half tracks, and Columbia-Princeton custom 12 channel mixer. All sounds were eventually tape spliced into the order of the song. I didn't just turn on the Buchla and let it roll, this piece was cut together. I've been told that this is the difference between West Coast and East Coast electronic music composition. I've been told.

Update via Reed:

"Here's a picture of the "classic Columbia-Princeton" setup..., complete with Buchla 100 and 12-channel mixer."

ProSolo RingMod Dubstep

YouTube via bigcitymusic. http://bigcitymusic.com

"Here's a fun use of the Kenton ProSolo MkII MIDI to CV converter. We're running our Elektron Machinedrum beat into the Moog MF-102 Ring Modulator. We set up a midi sequencer track to send note messages into the ProSolo which in turn is sending voltages to the Moogerfooger's frequency control voltage in. You hear the beat dry then we turn the mix knob up on the ring mod, then we enable the midi track, sending random notes through the ProSolo."

A True Rompler: EPROM-based Synthesis!

YouTube via littlescale
"I wanted to make a device that plays back digital audio, without the use of any programming or a microcontroller or a computer. In other words, the most basic rompler, as a hardware-only device. This is an example of a basic synthesiser that can use up to 256 different waveforms.

Z3000 / Z5000 complex patch 1

Z3000 / Z5000 complex patch 1 from GM on Vimeo.
"This patch got few tricks, first the Z5000 gets the sine from one VCO on his left channel then the sine of a second VCO on his right channel.

All three Z3000 are first having there frequencies set so they are spaced equally. Then, a CV from the computer Midi to CV is connected to all three, cascaded using the 1V/Oct I/O on the Z3000, all three are now playing the same sequence.

The VCO in the middle is frequency modulating the right VCO, the FM index is set at the 'safe zone'.

The most left VCO which is set to the highest frequency among the three is pulse width modulating the middle VCO.

Now the only thing left to do is just plug the waveforms from these three VCOs into filters and VCAS creating separate sound path and then sent to the computer interface for recording. Drums are played by a loop on Ableton Live. Thats it!!" TipTop Audio

Ryan Leslie Creates Diamond Girl

YouTube via RyanLeslieTV. via fischek. Alesis Andromeda A6
"Me (the Artist), Myself (the Producer), and I (the Engineer) get together in the studio to create my single "Diamond Girl". Great fun as usual.

Reviewing and re-sequencing the footage from this session revealed that it was possible to edit the video with an interesting twist: as though all of my alter egos were recording the song simultaneously, and even interacting with one another.

Please enjoy, request the song at radio, and share my music and vids with anyone else you think may appreciate them.
