Give your Alpha Juno-1 an ARP!

YouTube via TheSynthFreq. music comes in at 3:11.
"Hi! This is a short video of me demonstrating the Roland Alpha Juno-1. Its being controlled with ARP MIDI data from the Yamaha Motif 6 synthesizer. A few days ago, I wanted an authentic ARP effect on my Alpha Juno-1, but since the Juno-1s only have chord memory instead of an arpeg function, I used to have to record note for note into my Yamaha QX-3 through step recording to get a simulated arp for the classic 80s sounding compositions. I found some arp settings on the Yamaha Motif 6 and MIDI'd those messages to Juno-1 using the Juno's own bass patches. So Juno-1/2 owners really can have the best of both worlds, there is chord memory when you need it, for techno or other things, or MIDI it up to a synth that does have an arp setting and MIDI and there you go, a Juno with a vintage synth arp function. Since the Motif 6 is a modern synth, it has a great variety of arp patterns to choose from too, you can choose some plain up & down sequence or some pretty complex ones. I'm sure this is not a new discovery or anything, but still it is so awesome to have the awesome patches of the Juno-1 arp'd! I also play a short little 80s song, that I made up just to show the arp effect and the Juno with some chords from the D-50 and a sparkly lead sound that I made on the JV-880 module. I tend to talk a lot too! Sorry! LOL

Please enjoy :)

BLIPTRONIC 5000 8BIT - The Nintendo Generation 2010 Webcam Gadget Jam

YouTube via VJFranzK
"Bliptronic 5000 gets it's first test recreating one of my classic songs! Nintendo DSi comes along to help with tha beatz.

I guess this has evolved into a "Chiptune Reggae Hip Hop" song? And these devices are highly appropriate for that.

You may soon see me playing this at shows with a similar, but much FLASHIER synth... hmmmmm...

And of course, 10x as many vocal effects"

"I shot this video last year, but I never uploaded it here on Youtube.

Every sound you hear come from the Tenori-on itself, no external midi modules or VST connected.
Enjoy!"

"Cartoon Heroes" - on Yamaha HE-8

YouTube via organfairy
"... and Roland SH-2000 and Casio SA-1.

This is an attempt to make a cartoonish image of myself. And since I am not very good at drawing people I had to cut some corners.

The song was originally recorded by AQUA in 2000 and I made this version later the same year. So for once in a lifetime I played something that was new - at least ten years ago."

Varispeeded Drums through the Mid Fi Electronics Pitch Pirate

YouTube via RothHandle
"Today was a sort of inbetween short day in the studio but I managed to do some quick and snappy drum recordings for the Staphan O bell track 1000 Minds. This film shows a slightly weird experiment using the pitch pirate on the drum kit.

This film was recorded at Roth Händle studios in Stockholm. If you are interested in this sort of thing and want to find out more please visit the old but slightly functioning website www.roth-handle.nu"
Making the exception on this one as it is obviously not a synth. Every now and then I will posts effects units that can process and produce synthetic sounds.
