"The Xpander is basically a modular synth that does not use patch cords. It has six voices with completely independent control over each of them. You can stack six different sounds together if you want or any other combination thereof. Each patch can have up to 20 modulation sources. Each voice has its own analog out and cv/gate input. There are also left, right, and mono outputs. Probably the most flexible synth ever made and looks great, too. This piece requires serious programming to get the most out of it, but will definitely reward the time you put into it."

JUNO 8

Update: YouTube description added:
"This synth exists only in in my imagination! I wanted to imagine, and replicate what an 8 part multitimbral Alpha Juno would sound like. In fact, if it did exist, here's a small audio demo of what it actually would sound like. Play it in HD to do it justice!

Using only my Alpha Juno 2, the first pad part was recorded in Pro Tools playing manually, stacking 8 tracks.

The second part was created using MIDI sequencing in Pro Tools. I laid down a simple MIDI arpeggio and started recording the audio parts 1 stereo track at a time.

The oscillator de-tuning was accomplished by simply de-tuning using the Tune/function button while mulating it on a few of the audio passes . The "reversed" arpeggio sections were simple audio edits to the stereo mixdown.

I've always loved this synth, with it's unique rich sound. Now I love it even more
as an 8 part multitimbral (albeit imagined, but possible to replicate) SYNTH BEAST!"
