"MIDIbox SEQ V4 has reached beta state, let's celebrate this with a new demo!
[0:00] The electronic harp is played by Sculpture (part of Logic Audio) - a Physical Modelling Synth which I really like!
[0:00] MBSEQV4 plays the 16-step sequence with a new "step progression" feature: on each 4 step interval, the step is triggered twice. In addition, a customized groove template is applied on the velocity to accent the notes based on the master measure. This results into a more complex sequence which varies on each beat, but still sounds nice and not too random!
[0:01] to understand the "step progression" feature watch the GP LEDs - they are stopping each 4th step
[0:11] an Echo Fx is added with 64T delay. Note value is increased by +3 and forced to scale
[0:17] an additional VST synth is added which gets use of the new "step progression" feature as well
[0:21] Echo Fx: temporary increased to 6 repeats with +3 Note Value and +150% delay on each echo - let's scrub the harp!
[0:31] adding drums
[0:41] adding more synth lines, again with "step progression" to vary the sequence
[1:04] adding a chord sequence played by MIDIbox SID V2 (a typical arpeggio patch is used)
[1:48] probably you haven't noticed it due to the bad video quality, but I switched to another pattern which plays the electronic harp at C-3 on each step - the groove template is still enabled (boring?)
[2:05] now something completely different: a LFO is applied on the harp sequence with sine waveform and an interval of 4 steps. Force-to-Scale is enabled
[2:07] the LFO also sends a CC to Sculpture to vary the timbre.
[2:13] adding Echo Fx (1 repeat, 64ppqn delay, +150% tick) to this "modulated sequence"
[2:19] changing LFO waveform to Triangle
[2:31] changing LFO waveform to Sawtooth
[2:36] changing Echo Fx to 6 repeats
[2:46] slowly changing LFO the period to 16 steps (enjoy the change-over effects!)
[2:52] slowly changing LFO reset to 16 steps (enjoy the change-over effects!)
[3:00] changing LFO waveform to Sine, play drums again
[3:14] changing LFO waveform to Triangle
[3:21] changing CC offset of LFO
[3:33] unmuting the other instruments
[3:56] switching back to original sequence (my favourite moment ;-)
[4:16] muting/unmuting the toms...
[4:30] slowly muting the tracks
[4:40] thanks for listening! :-)
This track is the result of a rainy saturday afternoon."

YouTube via zibbybone "Little brother to the famous CR-78. The 68 has the same preset rhythms as the 78, but lacks programmability, fade in/out, voice cancel and the additional "constant" percussion (Metallic Beat, Tambourine & Guiro). I have the pattern variation set to automacitcally change from the A pattern to the B pattern every 2 measures. Later I demonstrate the other fill in patterns and lastly combine rhythms. Be sure to subscribe to my Channel for future videos of vintage electronic instruments. I plan to make a CR-78 video after I take it to Audio Electronics in Dallas for some TLC. Special thanks to my son, SuperSane101, for making the edits at the end. (Someday, I'll learn to edit)"
YouTube via vinyljunkie07 "This is the result of playing round with the Waldorf Attack drum synth...I then processed the drums with the D-Pole Waldorf filter where needed then recorded loops into the MPC, I then pitched the loops to max in the MPC and sampled them from the MPC into the Akai S-3200XL overdriving the inputs slightly, slowed down the loops in the 3200XL. For the pads and synth textures I sampled the Blofeld into the 3200XL and choped it up a bit and added some aditional filtering from the 3200. Bass comes from the Juno Strings come from the Blofeld Other drums and 808 from the MPC
Live jam as per usual, not even sure if I even like this tune any more"
YouTube via spooloops "This is a live recording of me landing my spaceship using an MC-505. I record the audio to my PC then add a bit of compression. This jam has a few bits, (an extra hi-hat, ride cymbal and the big wheezy pad) courtesy of a Korg ESX-1. I'm also using an outboard reverb as well as the 505's. I use the d-beam here to add drum chaos, usually while cranking the aux return on my mixer to add a quick reverb hit. You'll notice how the required flight suit rubber gloves like to trip the d-beam, unintentionally adding more 'liveness'."
