"A promotional film for the Donald Cammell and Nicolas Roeg film Performance (1970) this film was first shown to Warner Bros execs and then to worldwide distributors, it features exclusive behind the scenes footage.
I had to cut the Memo From Turner scene from this film because Warner Bros put a copyright infringement notice and blocked the video."

"Recording made hastily in 1990 of Roland SVC-350. MemoryMoog as carrier. Voice via Shure SM57 as modulator. I can't remember if the spatial effects was an Eventide H3000 or Ursa Major Space Station."
There's also this one using a guitar as the carrier. For some reason the embed didn't come up for it, so here's the link:

Native Instruments Introduces RAZOR
Native Instruments Razor Tutorial
YouTube Uploaded by NativeInstruments on Mar 24, 2011
follow-up to this post
"Our friends at macProVideo.com have produced this helpful tutorial video. It provides a comprehensive overview of RAZOR's enormous feature-set.
Find out more about RAZOR:
www.native-instruments.com/razor"
Update: and the official press release just in:
"Berlin, March 24th, 2011 – Native Instruments today introduced RAZOR, an innovative and highly distinctive software synthesizer designed together with forward-thinking electronic artist Errorsmith. For use in REAKTOR 5 and in the free REAKTOR PLAYER, RAZOR uses powerful additive synthesis to create intense and profoundly modern sounds for contemporary electronic music production.
Berlin-based producer and renowned REAKTOR instrument designer Errorsmith is dedicated to the "expansion of the sonic horizon through digital sound synthesis". RAZOR realizes this credo through the additive synthesis capabilities of the latest REAKTOR 5.5 generation, which were used to develop a high-resolution synthesis engine with unconventional sound shaping features and a unique real-time 3D spectrum display. The pristine and extremely dynamic sonic character of additive synthesis allows RAZOR to generate a wide and very distinctive array of energetic, hypermodern sounds, ranging from expressive basses and leads to complex, futuristic soundscapes.
RAZOR utilizes up to 320 partials for its sophisticated sound shaping algorithms. The dual oscillator section provides a wide arsenal of timbres, ranging from typical analog-style waveforms to unconventional models like "Primes", "Sick Pitchbend" and "Hoover Sync". The two filter sections offers 20 different filter types including innovative formant, vowel and waterbed models. A further section provides an arsenal of unique "Dissonance Effects" that further contribute to the unmistakable, charismatic sonic footprint of the instrument. RAZOR even integrates a high-performance 34-band vocoder that can also be used to process external audio signals of any type.
The user interface of RAZOR builds on familiar concepts of subtractive synthesizers, providing especially efficient and intuitive control for the underlying highly sophisticated synthesis engine. RAZOR also includes a library of 350 carefully selected presets with a focus on cutting-edge electronic sound aesthetics, accommodating both contemporary club music genres like Dubstep and Techno as well as modern film and game scoring applications.
RAZOR is available for download purchase in the NI Online Shop for $79/69 EUR.

Grokking the FS1R: Part 4 - A Solid attempt at Lately
YouTube Uploaded by NoisyLittleBugger on Mar 24, 2011
"WARNING - This video contains loud audio. Even though a limiter was placed on the output, the nature of FM means that noise peaks are inevitable when experimenting. You have been warned!
If you don't know what FS1R or FM synthesis are then there's no point in watching. Really.
Part 4 : A Solid attempt at Lately - Part A
Using the FS1R to emulate one of the most ubiquitous bass sounds in 90's pop. Heaven or Hell, depending on your perspective.
Some examples of it's use:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9uizdKZAGE - The Janet Jackson song that (apparently) gave it's name to the TX81Z patch.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjJwqDa1QVI - Ace of Bass
etc...
It's a good synthesis target to for learning FM, and a very useable patch too. This is by no means a perfect copy, but it is the basis of so much more. I will expand this patch in the next video.
Solid Bass is a preset on the Yamaha DX-100. Lately Bass is a preset on the Yamaha TZ81Z. Both are 4-operator FM synths. The only apparent difference between these patches is that, whereas the DX-100 uses only Sine waveforms, the TX81Z used on of it's additive forms (number 5 FWIW). This apprently adds more bite to the attack, but probably not necessary on the FS1R as the feedback is plenty enough to impart that familiar snap in the attack.
Solid Bass is a 4-operator Patch, using algorithm 2 on the DX-100. This is one carrier with stacked modulators - a configuration that is doubled in one FS1R voice 0 algorithm 70. The feedback operator provides most of the snappy attack. A slow, fre--running pitch LFO is also applied. No Filters! Velocity sensitivity only applied to the feedback operator - but this can be expanded to other operators for more expressiveness. Next time.....
