Finger tapping in Geo Synthesizer using mono note setting


YouTube Uploaded by timokc on Jan 10, 2012

"This is a quick example of soloing in Geo Synthesizer, using the Mono option. When activated, only one note will play at a time. As a result, when you hold down one note and repeatedly hit another, you can get a finger tapping effect, much as you would on a guitar. The sound is Geo Synthesizer preset 'Baker's Axe'."

The Roland JUNO 2012 [Custom Dual Juno-106]


YouTube Uploaded by psyfi on Jan 6, 2012

"The Juno 2012 is two Roland Juno 106's in a custom case giving the Juno 2 parallel oscillators, LFO's Envelopes and filters per voice, Front panel fine-tuning for each synth provided and then running through parallel filters with a cross fading mix control. One runs as a master synthesizer and one as a slave you can edit both from the master panel or with the different setting of the rear function switch you can edit separate patches on each. these both run through the same chorus and jack board for a full stereo mix out at the rear and you can set each to a different midi channel for multi timbrel control. Also added is polyphonic filter frequency modulation of the master synthesizer's filters using the slaves synthesizers voices as mixable modulation sources. This pushes the sound creation potabilities of the Juno-2012 far beyond its original design"

The Rev 2 had SSM filters, while the Rev 3 had Curtis. You don't hear demos of the Rev 2 often.
"Prophet 5 rev 2 for sale on ebay [note the vid is from 2010, so no longer on eBay - Perfect Circuit does have one currently listed here - and a search here]. running through some patches to show some of the versatility of this synth and also the midi capabilities of the installed Kenton MIDI kit."

Sequential Circuits Multi-Trak


YouTube Uploaded by psyfi on Sep 13, 2009

Note this video is from 2009, and I'm guessing this specific Multi-Trak is longer for sale. You can of course check for them on eBay. Posting the video for the demo as it shows some of the multi-tracking capabilities and some sounds the Multi-Trak is capable of. On a side note, I looked into making a TouchOSC template for the Multi-Trak but sadly it appears to only respond to complete patch dumps and not real-time control over each parameter. The Six-Trak has the same sound engine and does support real-time editing via MIDI CC, but lacks the velocity sensitivity and trust me, the velocity sensitivity on the Multi-Trak is extremely expressive especially when routed to the filter with a bit of resonance. It really is a shame their MIDI specs didn't overlap. The MAX and Split-Eight share the same sound engine as well, but I believe only the Multi-Trak had a velocity sensitive keyboard. I guess you could slave a Six-Trak with a Multi-Trak and get release velocity that way [or any other keyboard with velocity of course]. You can find a free MIDITouch iPad editor for the Six-Trak here.

Video Description:
"Running though the different functions on the SCI Multi trak. Showing all keys working. Velocity working pitch and mod wheels working. Also playing and recording to the sequencer and running the voice patches through their dedicated outputs."
