The Late Show with Dav...: David Letterman - Jon Huntsman Rocks


YouTube Published on Dec 21, 2011 by CBS

"The Republican presidential candidate shows off his rock & roll roots with an impromptu performance."

& some synth spotting with Paul Shaffer. He still has his Kurzweil K250 & Oberheim OB-Xa. Moog Voyager and Roland Fantom X7 round things out. It's too bad Jon Huntsman didn't get any power synth time.

Here comes trouble. Sequential Circuits Six Trak.

"All synths on this track are the Six Trak, apart from the bass sound. Percussion - Reason Redrum loaded with ethnic percussion sounds."

Uploaded by rushbury on Aug 12, 2010

"All synths and some percussion created with the six trak, apart from the played bright pad sound (oberheim matrix 1000). The six trak is responsive to cc messages, so you can automate paramater changes via your sequencer."

Sequential Circuits Six Trak and Oberheim Matrix 1000 Instrumental Custom Patches

Uploaded by rushbury on Apr 21, 2010

"A short instumental piece using these great analogue synths. There are two tracks of Oberheim Matrix 1000, and one track of Sequential Circuits six trak. I'm posting this vid as an example of the kind of sounds you can get from these fantastic (and cheap) synths. Some more vids soon (with some live action next time, hopefully)."

Roland D-550 Frippertronics D-50

"I made this patch on the Roland D-550 which i thought sounded a bit like Robert Fripp's Frippertronics. The delay/repeat effect is achieved with the chase function on (levels set to full). Effects used - reverb and a stereo enhancer. This is one single patch, no overdubs."

"D-550 improvisation using a custom patch made with the PG 1000 controller. This is just one single patch, no overdubs. The Roland D-50/D-550 is an amazing synth, it has a certain something that often surprises and delights. You gotta use that PG 1000 to get the best out of it though (or a software editor, i recommend sounddiver for the pc). Seek and ye shall find!.."

"Two custom patches (voice and organ pads) created with the Roland D-550 and the PG-1000 programmer. (Sound quality is poor after transferring to youtube). http://www.myspace.com/pandacetamol"

Roland D-50 D-550 Soundtrack Improvisation

Uploaded by rushbury on Nov 23, 2010

"3 tracks of Roland D-550 using custom patches. This is my first time recording using Cubase 5 - i used pan effects, reverb and delay. The more i play this machine, the more i love it! By the way, check out this excellent librarian and editor software for the D-50/D-550. http://www.d50librarian.co.uk/
The best librarian i have seen for the D-50, and it even has a virtual PG-1000 if you don't have the real thing..."

MFB Nanozwerg Analogue Synth

"MFB-NANOZWERG

* analogue VCO with four waveform shapes
* sub-oscillator with two octave settings
* analogue multimode-filter with 12dB/oct
* LFO with “one-shot” functionality
* audio-input
* controllable by MIDI and CV/Gate

Size doesn’t always matter. Despite its compact dimensions, NANOZWERG is a full-featured monophonic analogue synthesizer. With VCO, an additional sub-oscillator and its 12dB-slope-multimodefilter, NANOZWERG offers multiple bass- and lead-sounds. In addition, NANOZWERG offers a noise-generator and also works as an effects-processor using its external audio-input.

Here is an overview to NANOZWERG’s configuration:

The analogue VCO generates four waveform shapes: Triangle, saw tooth, rectangle and needle-impulse. The base pitch can be switched over a four-octave-range, while fine-tune can be specified within a range of one octave. The sub-oscillator with two mixable octave settings completes the NANOZWERG’s sound foundation. The noise generator can alternatively replace the sub-oscillator to create non-harmonic sounds. Finally, a glide-control can be used to tie notes with portamento.

The state-variable multimode-filter runs with 12dB slope per octave and offers Lo-, Hi- and Bandpass-modes as well as notch-filtering and resonance up to self-oscillation. Cutoff can be modulated manually, by LFO and by the ADSR-envelope simultaneously. In addition, pitch-dependent cutoff-frequency can be achieved using the key follow function. Finally, LFO modulation can be replaced by the VCO output signal.

The LFO offers four waveform shapes including sample & hold as well as a one-shot-function, where the selected waveform is played only once after a gate-trigger, thus imitating a simple envelope. Besides the cutoff-frequency, the LFO can also modulate the pitch or the VCO rectangle’s pulse width.

The ADSR-envelope allows modulation of the filter’s cutoff-frequency and the VCA-output, with positive or negative excursion. Selectively, the VCA can also be opened by a gate-trigger to free the envelope for exclusive filter use.

For integration into a modular system or use with an analogue sequencer, NANOZWERG offers several control inputs. There is CV/Gate for pitch control and note length as well as CV-inputs for cutoff-control, the VCA and LFO speed. The LFO also offers CV-output.

The audio-input allows signals to be fed into the VCF and VCA. NANOZWERG can be controlled by MIDI from any compatible keyboard or DAW. Note commands are received as well as pitch-wheel (+/- 2 semitones) and modulation-wheel data, the latter controlling the filter’s cutoff frequency.

MFB’s NANOZWERG has the following dimensions: 140 x 130 x 35 mm.External power supply included."
