Love song for the Wretch Machine

via zerosum

"Here is my love song for the Wretch Machine [link]

It is played from a keyboard using a synhouse midi jack that used to be available when the Wretch Machine first came out, but is not longer available.

It starts out with the waveshaper bypassed. when it gets really loud, that is me engaging the waveshaper.

There is a brief pause at the beginning where I stop playing, I had to get a chair to stand on because I couldn't reach the keyboard comfortably."

A new year & a new acid pattern.

The January's Acid Pattern is from Coldfuture

Frozen Over - January Acid from Coldfuture by Coldfuture

You can grab the pattern data from here. The pattern can then be programmed into your tb303 or x0x box to create a new track. The pattern could be programmed into your vst such as ABL or Phoscoyn to create a new track. Transcribe the pattern to midi and send it to your favourite synth to create a new track. Grab the audio file and rework the audio into a new track.

Then post your finished track or jam into the acid pattern group

Macbeth X-Series: Oscillator

flickr By Analogue Haven

"The next Eurorack module from Macbeth Studio Systems will be the Oscillator. More than just one half of the Dual Oscillator, this single module retains the full and rich sound of the original but offers a wide range Osc Sweep knob as opposed to the octave switch while still using the luxury multi-turn fine tuning pot. It also has a switch to put it into LFO mode as well as two seperate sub oscillator outputs- in addition to all the standard waveform outputs.

We expect the X-Series Oscillator in early January for a price around $699. The size is 21 HP. For those who already have a Dual Oscillator, it makes a perfect third oscillator/modulator for that classic "Minimoog voice".
