MiniMoog Voyager XL and Korg Radias - Sneak Preview by Andy Barrow

YouTube Uploaded by MrRidgebackman on Mar 8, 2012

"Hi everyone, this video MiniMoog Voyager XL and Korg Radias is a sneak preview on a piece of music I am working on - I suggest a Pair of Headphones or Big Speakers, This is still being worked on. The Minimoog Voyager XL being put through its paces at some basic modular work, mainly itself being used with a little interaction from me.

The patch panel is being used to modify and control the Oscillators, to produce an effect as if it is being sequenced. Only the the Two LFO outputs Square and Sawtooth are being used to drive the 2nd LFO and the Four input Mixer, which has 2 outputs. These are then being sent to the Pan via the LAG processor and the other output of the Mixer is being sent to the Filter Cutoff

Playing with the controls on the Mixer produces different effects on the Cutoff and affects the pattern. This is just a sneak preview, using the XL and the Korg Radias for the Lead synth. Recorded into Logic Pro and using Compression, Reverb and Delay. Sends are being sent to additional Reverb and compression. Trying to contain the Moog Bass line was a tricky one, it wanted to climb out of the Headphones So until I can add Rhythm and additional Synth tracks, thought you might want to grab an ear load of Moog Bass.

The Lead synth will be switched round with the Korg and Moog.

Apologies for my comments at the end of this video, but saying Mooooog does sound sexy. I don't apologize for being biased towards this synth."

Legendary Moog OSCar Up for Auction

via eBay

Some of you might remember this one from this post back in September of 2005.

"For sale is the legendary moogOSCar, there is only one of them on this planet. A real Oscar with latest OS, everything working perfectly in a Moog Source housing. Was once owned by Roger Lyons and was restored some years ago after it arrived here in europe in a terrible shape. It has an audio input for feeding audio through the filter and a CV-input for controlvotages on the cutoff-frequency. This is not a fake or diy-crap, it's a fully working OSCar in a funny and extremely servicefriendly housing. The pitchbend-pot is a bit crackly, if you plan to use the synth on stage you should replace this pot. Worldwide shipping with excellent packaging. Keep in mind this OSCar wants 220 V, maybe you need a converter in your country. I ship with the original "Sound on Sound"-Article on this unique thing and with a complete OSCar manual. Please have a look how other bayers have rated me."

Upcoming MoCM Workshop with Andreas Monopolis and the TAPETRON

YouTube Uploaded by TheMOCM on Dec 19, 2011

"The tapetron module It is based on the idea of the early samplers. 4 walkmans playing 8 mono lines from stereo pre recorted tapes (perhaps loop tapes) the controls are on/off, volume (for each line-loop) speed, forward/reverse. Dc -- battery power, line out."

"Andreas Monopolis will introduce us to his unique sound devices and he will discuss the notions of DIY on sound, sound moddules and music composing. 

A composer and performer of electronic and computer music himself, he soon caught on to the potential of both live shows and the experience of music making in terms of "instrument" use. MoCM sound solutions come as an answer to those fields which rely largely on software's algorithmic "point, scroll and click" routine; however they can easily adapt to all kinds of music genres.


By focusing on circuit-bending, prototyping and junk instrument philosophy, these DIY sound modules open a whole new world of creativity and experimenting for studio recordings or live performances. 
All modules are unique, incorporating a variety of materials and features. Hacked toys, old consoles, electronic components, pieces of wood and any kind of random objects are turned into synths, sound generators and noise makers which produce, reproduce and modify sound. Their feel is equally old school and futuristic, elegant and edgy, fun and inspiring.

MoCM workshop will follow on Saturday 31/3 and Sunday 1/4."
