YouTube via apescarbo — May 27, 2010 — "Density is a new interactive real-time program for asynchronous granular synthesis sound file granulation, to generate a wide range of effects: time/pitch shifting, pitch disintegration, time jittering, sound pulverizer, scrub pad exploration, dynamic envelope drawing etc... Interpolation- transitions and Hyper Vectorials pads, provide a powerful way to generate incredible sound objects. All parameters are controllable via MIDI learning/rescale"

Yamaha C605 Electone Organ Improvisation

YouTube via martythevampire1 — March 23, 2010 — "This is an improvised tune with my Yamaha C605 electone organ from 1982 showing what you can get out of the accompanyment arpegiator. The audio is fed out into a Zoom 1202 effects rack for the delay (via the organs aux output and aux input jacks). The sound is just the internal speakers (sorry theres no direct audio input on the camera) I love the choir sounds on this as they can get a bit mellotronesque.

Excuse the playing, this is only me messing around and to show the kind of things you can get out of these old beasts rather than the typical cheesy 'Home organ' style.

Before anyone asks, this doesn't have midi or a c.v. interface (control voltage), neither is there any sync or clock output. You can stack multiple sounds up though: upper manual sounds, upper enemble sounds, solo sound plus special section sounds all together.

I have a few more videos I will be uploading in the next few days showing some other features and sounds it can make."

Yamaha C605 Bass Pedals Playing Synth Sound (Synthe) preset

"martythevampire1 — March 23, 2010 — Yamaha C605 bass pedals switched to play 'Synthe' sound on the bass pedals, a great filtered synth sound."

via this auction
"Its a great organ, and quite capable of some fantastic analog synth strings, choirs brass and synth effects, its not massively programmable as such but you can stack a lot of the sounds up together (strings, choir, solo synthe and harpsichord) or simply use it as a nice home organ sound. You can alter the attack and release (sustain) envelope on the ensemble sounds. Built in rythym and arpeggiator section can provide nice backing. Built in spring reverb and good leslie/vibrato/chorus effects and it is very flexible in terms of where and how you can assign the voices.

Overall condition for a 28 year old organ is pretty good"

Roland System 100m vs MFOS - DIY modular VCF shootout

Audio comes in at :18
YouTube via hnydell — June 15, 2010 — "Comparison between Roland System 100m 121 VCF module and the Music From Outer Space 4-pole VCF.
Setup: MFOS 16 step sequencer driving two MFOS VCOs. Each VCF is fed a sawtooth and a pulse wave from the VCOs, slightly detuned. An MFOS AR envelope controls the VCA (Sys 100m 130), an MFOS ADSR controls the two filters. The sequencer is in 2x8 mode, where the second half later is patched in to the VCF control.
Since the 100m uses 15 volts, the MFOS adsr (12V) cannot really sweep through the full VCF frequency span on the 121. This is not very apparent though."
