"1960s Vintage Hohner Bass III Bass Synthesizer

Just restored! All key contacts cleaned, circuit board resoldered and bad voltage regulator replaced. It plays in tune!

The Bass III (or 3) has three sounds: String Bass (smooth), Guitar (plucky) and Tuba (round). And two controls: Volume and "Percussion" (attack). The "Percussion" feature can be turned on or off by pulling on the knob. There is also a fine tune control which is operated by a set screw. There is one output.

This thing has awesome low end (think of the bass sounds on records by The Doors) however, it is not a Moog. There's no CV input or output, no midi, just pure sixties analog goodness."

Solvent meets the Make Noise Phonogene

YouTube Published on Aug 7, 2012 by s0LVentCIty

"Hi my name is Solvent and I make electronic music. Here is a rather indulgent video of my first experiment with the Make Noise Phonogene module. Actually, indulgent as this may be, I liked this enough to press record. I used a square wave LFO to chop the splices evenly, and the SH-101 krbrd is choosing the splices via the "Organize" Cv-in. End-of-splice ("EOS") triggers a TipTipAudio BD808 kick drum, running through the Doepfer A-189-1 Bit Modifier. Phonogene loop is processed through a Pittsburgh Modular Filter + Midiverb reverb. The source of the sample was some lame YouTube film trailer about space."

Synth Spotting with The Finger Prince on ADSR

ADSR - The Finger Prince from Tooths on Vimeo.

Note this one is cross posted on MATRIXSYNTH-C as well.

"In this episode of ADSR we meet the Sydney techno duo The Finger Prince.

We talk music writing and recording processes as they break down the mix for the title track off their 'Mao' EP - how they got the sounds and what synths and gear they used. Its all analog gear - 808, 909, 303, Juno 6, Moog, Jupiter 6 and many more... if you are into hardware you are in for a treat.

They also talk about their techno label Motorik!, their recent remix of The Presets and how acid is blame/thank for the name and more.
