Overdubbing naive synthlines on the Yamaha SY-1


YouTube via RothHandle
"A pretty interesting day in the studio...By accident I found the first little thing I recorded with the Tenori on and I decided to a handful overdubs...The day ended on a high note with listening and finishing a mix for Andreas Morland, the song All the time...

This film shows me recording a very naive synthline on the Yamaha SY-1.

This film was shot amy studio Roth-Händle. It is located in Sundbyberg, a suburb to Stockholm.
If you are into this kind of thing...please visit www.roth-handle.nu for more info..."

"Great little analog synth with unusual sound. It can do nice bass sounds, with tight, self-resonant-capable low pass and band-pass filter, nice leads with PWM and bandpass featues. Extensive modulation options. Two envelope generators. PWM, saw, noise waveforms. Band-pass filter can self-resonsnate too! lovely wooden side panels.

Comes with a few sheets detailing knob function and some circuit diagrams."

Plan B Model 15 Complex VCO

via this auction
"From EAR Group:

You want fat...well how about OBESE?

The immensely popular Plan B Model 15 is an analog Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) featuring an all-discrete component triangle wave core, two independent fully processed (+/-) VC inputs, a single 1V/Oct input, a dedicated linear FM input, sync, and independent Sine, Triangle, Saw, PWM and Wave Morph Outputs. The VC Wave Morph is a vactrol-based (read: smooth) crossfade function via a manual pot setting or VC control and the morphs from Sine to either Saw or Square wave outputs.

Due to it's triangle core architecture, the sound replicates that of the Buchla 258 with stability better than .01% (less than 4 hertz drift at 1kHz over 24 hours) and boasts a frequency range of 1 to 20Khz and a maximum power consumption of only 40mA.

Various component improvements on the Model 15 core have increased for 1V/oct tracking to seven octaves requiring only single pot adjustments for periodic calibration and none of the hick-ups associated with sawtooth core VCOs past the 3k limit. For imore informaiton of the Model 15's tracking go here (suggesed reading for those requiring wide-range tracking).

The Model 15 has been mechanically redesigned with it's electronics resting parallel to the faceplate, bringing the overall depth from over 4 inches in previous revisions to less than 1 1/8th inches with the Rev. 2.

Why is it called the Model 15 you ask? 2 plus 5 plus 8 = 15. Simple!"

"Another 'quick one' for fun. Even though I thought of putting some solos, drums, percussion and other supporting tracks to this sequence, I thought it was nice as is. This reminds me a little of my peice The Last King (both my version that is here on my You Tube channel and the collaberation version I did with Martin Peters found on the Synthesizers.com Collective 2009 CD)

Thanks to No Doubt for the title! ;-)

Thanks for watching, rating and commenting!"

We Don't Need No Syncing Bad Jams!

"I was experimenting with the Synth Tech MOTM-650 MIDI-CV converter's arrpegiator sending MIDI clock out to the Moon M553 MIDI2CV converter and syncing up the M569 sequencer etc. It turned into something I wanted to preserve by recording it but, I have another project I really want to get done so I did this one pretty quick. (I was planning on several tracks of Eastern hand drums and full drumset too . . .)

This is the third attempt which was followed by three false starts and then the final take which was the best. Unfortunately I didn't realize that the camera had run out of memory so I only got the first minute of it. :-/ So what you see here is the third attempt with extra bonus mistakes for your viewing amusment! ;-)

Thank you for watching, rating and commenting!"

Something Nice For Your Cat (part 2 re-edit 2010)

"More of the same from part 1 with the lights off! While I think part 1 is 'better' there is a thing or two about part 2 I really like. I had originally uploaded a longer version of part 2 last year but pulled it down quickly because of some really stinky playing. This re-edit gets rid of some, but not all, of the bad parts. Featured are the wonderful sounds of MOTM-300 sine waves passed through MOTM-440 and MOTM-485 filters etc. For more information on MOTM synthesizers go to www.synthtech.com/

Thanks for listening, rating and commenting!"
