Bill Walker Meets the Moog Lap Steel

YouTube Uploaded by MoogMusicInc on Apr 13, 2011

"Bill Walker stopped by the Moog Sound Lab to treat us to some incredible live looping improvisation on the Moog Lap Steel.

Ok the gear breakdown (in Bill's own words):

I was running the Moog lap steel through a very basic rig starting with a Keeley compressor set for light compression and a bit of signal boost, into and ethos preamp for both clean and overdriven tones ,into a TC Electronic G Sharp for some dynamic delay and reverb, and finally in to a Looperlative LP-1 8 track loop recorder. I use a Gordius Little Giant midi foot controller to send commands to the Looperlative. My two expression pedals control volume and feedback for my loops.

I use a number of looping techniques that include track speed manipulation, reverse loops, and quantize replace functions. The quantize replace function is what is creating the percolating sequencer sounding loops. I had my quantize replace set to a factor of 16, meaning every time I hit my quantize replace switch , the looper would record for only a 16th of the total loop length. You do this enough times and a cool sequence of notes starts to emerge. I'll often start a piece by first recording a blank loop, and then one by one I start to build a sequence of notes until a highly rhythmic pattern emerges, even out of completely rubato playing.
Its a harder technique to describe than it is to show :-)

GetLoFi Quad Oscillator 4093 Drone Tone Generator Kit

YouTube Uploaded by circuitmaster on Apr 13, 2011

"This new kit from GetLoFi.com is a Quad Oscillator circuit based on the 4093 Logic IC. Each Oscillator can be independently tuned to create a polyphonic drone tone or pulsing beep tones. Super easy to assemble and fun to twiddle the knobs on. This sound generating circuit can be further processed and enhanced through the use of guitar effects.

This particular build of the kit features a 1590 metal enclosure and a Tone control circuit. The output is standard 1/4 inch instrument jack. 9 Volt battery for power source.

More Information including a drilling template can be found at www.getlofi.com/quad and please feel free to order this kit and many others from www.getlofi.com/shop"

DJ Lace - This video tape

YouTube Uploaded by canmarcvancouver on Apr 12, 2011

"Mixed on April 12th 2011 at Canmarc in Vancouver BC with a DM4800 console & Yamaha HS 80 monitors.

Produced with the following hardware:

Roland TR-808, Roland TR-33, Univox JR5, Korg KR55, Sequential Circuits Pro-1 (w/Doepfer a190-2), 360 systems midibass, Kurzweil k2000, Kawai SX-210, Akai Ax60, Korg DW6000, Ensoniq ESQ-1, Oberheim Matrix 6, Sequential circuits Prophet 5, Deltalab DL-5 harmonicomputer, Korg DVP-1, Intersound RV100, Systech 4000A, Roland RE-20, and a quad 2.6ghz XP pc running the following:


Ableton live 8 for all midi sequencing and audio recording
Vegas 10 for all video loops & post render.
MidividGPU Hardware accelerated Midi controlled video module for realtime clip triggering & pre mix render.
Wavelab/SSL Duende for audio mastering.

Production Notes:

The 808 is the backbone of the composition. It runs synched in song mode for the whole track.

The KR-55 has a midi trigger mod. The TR-33 and Univox Jr-5 cannot be synched so they were sampled.

The pro-1 is layered with the 360 midibass. The Seinfeld slap is also from the 360. The 60s reverb tail on the bassline is from the intersound spring reverb.

The systech is used to flange the KR-55 in various parts of the song.

The chorus bells are the Korg DW6000 and Ensoniq ESQ-1 Layered together.

"Pay attention" is my voice through the Korg DVP-1 vocoder and stretched in Ableton.

The Deltalab harmomicomputer is used to pitch modulate the effects send of the female lead vocal in the bridge.

The "80s" reverb on the main 808 drum mix is from the TC electronics engine in the DM4800.

The prophet 5 is used to make the filtered counter melody in the bridge, and the climbing synth at the end of the bridge.

The Kawai sx-210 is used for the main melody in the bridge using the synth internal chorus & slightly notched to fit with the female vocal.

The big string chorus line is from the K2000. The ping pong delayed organ riffs are from the matrix 6.

The "Hey" are my voice sampled from another one of my tracks, with the RE-20 doing pitched tape delay effects.

The final Mix is 31 tracks wide spread over two layers on the dm-4800."
