Dewanatron Melody Gin with Machinedrum Impulse

YouTube via bigcitymusic
"We're having some fun with the Dewanatron Melody Gin. The Melody Gin's envelope is being triggered by the Elektron Machinedrum's Impulse machine. The Impulse machine allows you to send out gate pulses which can be super handy. The Melody Gin's audio is patched into the Machinedrum and we're using a bit of the built in reverb. The Melody Gin is a truly original synthesizer, hand-built by Leon and Brian Dewan in New York. It's basically a two oscillator, four LFO synth with cross modulation, an envelope and some other really neat features like the "Slice" function."

a synth dream via John Levin

"Perhaps this is a sure sign I've been reading MATRIXSYNTH too long... I had a synth dream!

In my dream, I was involved in the making of a documentary on the significance of the Arp Odyssey to the San Francisco disco music scene of the 1970's.

There was a section of the dream that was about the importance of the PPC controllers on the Odyssey. Some guy had even modded his Arp Omni so that one of the pads on the PPC could control the filter cutoff. At this point, there was even a schematic.

Would the PPCs even work on an Omni? Who knows? It was a dream!

Later, I was at a party, in someone's kitchen. It was still the San Francisco disco scene of the 1970's. There were about 5 cats in the kitchen. More Matrix influence, clearly.

Calling Dr. Freud! Well, I made a dreamy image of a PPC w/ schematic for you too.

Cheers,
John"
