Ruffa - Quick Trance Melody

YouTube via Rufon
"Trance Melody Composed By Ruffa. Used the Clavia Nord Keyboard, one powerful Synthesiser!"
Two odd/interesting things about this one. The obvious - the image is the Waldorf Stromberg which hasn't been released yet. Two, I wonder what Nord Keyboard. It doesn't sound like a Nord Lead, more like the Virus, although I guess it could be heavily processed. Nord Lead 3 or G2? Anyone with one, feel free to comment.

Anyone know what type of organ that is? :)

Update via Ryan in the comments: "This is the organ in the lobby of the oh-so-painfully-hip 'The Standard' hotel in downtown los angeles.

It's an appropriately-named 'Model 2001' made by Thomas Organs."

A Ratchety Racket (demo featuring M564, Q119 and MOTM-730 modules)

YouTube via JohnLRice
"This is an example of sequencer 'ratching' . . . at least from what I understand it to be. Even though you can't see it in the video, the Synth Tech MOTM-730 plays a critical role role in the patch, along with the Moon Modular M564 Sequntial Switch and the Synthesizers.com Q119 sequencer which are shown.

Thanks for watching, rating and commenting!!! :-)"
