Korg microSTATION - string brass preset 1-49 HQ

YouTube via triumphthruxton | September 03, 2010

"String preset 1 to 49, Korg microSTATION is a new workstation from Korg. I just got the first shipment to Europe and I have had the Korg M3 and the Korg M50 Workstation before. This is a light weight 2.5 kg/ 6lbs workstation/synthesizer with amazing sounds and a built in sequencer.

Pros: portabel and easy to use, amazing sounds from the bigger M3 series, sequencer, great software editor

Cons: mini keys, small LCD display

Everything recorder with a Korg SR1 Sound On Sound field recorder.

You can make a 16 channel song with drums, bass lines, leads, pads and so on. Use up to 5 effects and master effects and then save your work to a SD card. With the USB connection it can act as an VST in your DAW like Cubase, Logic, Live. Since I use it in a studio it is very easy to just put it in a bag and use it both at home and in the studio. I initially bought the Korg M50 but 7 kg/15 lbs was bulky since I also play bass guitar and use Cubase on my laptop, impossible to get all that equipment on the metro."

MPC Electronics MPC-1 Analog Drum Machine Demo

YouTube via snolan1990 | September 03, 2010

"This is a brief overview of the features and sounds of the MPC Electronics Music Percussion Computer. This is a fully Analog Drum Machine made in Cambrige in England in 1982 by MPC Electronics featuring a four pattern internal sequencer and plenty of interfacing methods for a machine of this age. For whatever reason this machine seemed to fade almost entirely into obscurity, however if you managed to find one in fully working order it would make a fine addition to any electronic studio.

It should be noted that this machine is not 100% working, the internal battery has leaked and damaged the external sync circuits meaning that it will only work as master clock and a few of the pots are broken. Most notably the snare tune and decay pots are gone resulting in the snare being a very short burst click sound where as on a full working unit it would probably sound closer to a 909 snare.

For the cheesy little demo track at the end of this video the instruments used are as follows.

Drums - MPC-1
Latin Percussion - Roland TR-727
Electronic Piano - Roland JX-3P
Bass - Oberheim DPX-1 (with Juno-60 bass patch sample)
Harpsichord - Akai S900 (with Juno-60 patch sample)
Organ - Roland Juno-60
Sequencer - Akai ASQ10"

retro 1950's modular synth art for screen-printing

via The B-Roll "Since I need to come up with some screen-printing designs for our little burgeoning artist collective I decided to google image search “vintage control panels” for inspiration. I ultimately want to use these components to create an imaginary 1950′s modular synth. Some kind of modular that never existed but you wish it did. I made these in Inkscape but they were most definitely not freehand. I actually didn’t use the tablet at all. It was created using a lot of primitive shapes and the union command. I really dig the way they look though."

Doepfer FP5 Foot Controller

via Noisebug on Ebay
"NEW IN BOX
about 1m cable length, Stereo jack plug 1/4", potentiometer 10k linear (suitable e.g. for LMK4+/2+ or A-177)

dimensions:
overall: ~ 25 x 12 x 11 cm (down position) resp. 25 x 12 x 15 cm (up position)
Pin out of the stereo jack plug:
left (ccw) terminal of the potentiometer = GND terminal of the jack plug middle terminal (wiper) of the potentiometers = ring of the jack plug right (cw) terminal of the potentiometer = tip of the jack plug

Pay attention that not the full rotating angle of the potentiometer is covered but only about 50%. If the end terminals of the potentiometer are e.g. connected to GND and +5V only a voltange range 0...+2.5V is covered ! Of course the foot control inputs of our keyboards take this special behaviour into consideration but e.g. for DIY/OEM applications one has to pay attention to the limited rotating angle."
