Square Dancing

Square Dancing from Hans-Jörg Scheffler on Vimeo.

"A very odd combi of old videofootage of classic squaredancers synced to a modern beat with funky synths.
I manipulated the time axis of the footage and used some effects in Artmatic V-Track to give it a more contemporary look.
The music was done in Logic 8 on a Macpro using Stylus RMX for the drums and the Access Virus TI Polar synthesizer for bass, lead and chords."

1970s MAESTRO USS-1 UNIVERSAL SYNTHESIZER Guitar System

via this auction

"Maestro 1716 USS-1A Universal Synthesizer System from the 1970s
DESIGNED BY OBERHEIM

Waveform (with Intensity slider) a kind of fuzz effect
Filter (with Frequency and Brilliance sliders) envelope filter
Sample/Hold strange warbly effect
Phase (with Speed slider) phaser, really awesome sounds too
Envelope (with Attack and Decay sliders) another envelope filter that operates a bit differently
Sub-Harmonic (with a Volume slider and sustained or percussive switch) self explanitory, lower octave in quick hit or sustaining
then there is also a slider for Sensitivity that works on the Envelope and Sub-Harmonic, basically increasing the volume of the effect compaired to the natural sound, great analog sounds.

Has a great sample and hold that tops the Maestro FSH-1 since on this unit it has additional controls like the filter being independent of the Sample /Hold so you can run both at the same time. The octave down subharmonic is thick and can track/trigger strangley for some interesting randomness, coupled witht the sample/hold you get some amazing textures. There are numerous options for getting some very unusual sounds. Great for experimental work or for sampling interesting sounds with a thick vintage vibe ."

"Printed on paper, taped to cardboard, and fitted with some hardware.

The switch and pots are from the Synthesizers.com version I'm building for Android Lust. The knobs I grabbed off of my Frac Bananalogue VCS.

The print isn't the most recent version of this panel (see the previous graphic in my photostream).

So far so good!"
