"This is a live improvised analog modular synth composition featuring the Animoog (Iphone App) patched into the Make Noise MATHS module This sound exploration is a glimpse of what my live shows are like. This song will be featured on my up coming limited edition vinyl release that shall remain nameless for the time being."
"This short video clip shows the Doepfer A-155 Analog Sequencer being used as a graphic VCO. The rate is controlled by the square wave output of another VCO (Doepfer A-110). Three steps of the sequence are modulated by three separate LFOs all at different rates making a constantly changing waveform. The A-155 output is processed by a Doepfer A-121 LPF stage, modulated by another LFO, creating smoother edges."
"Our new website will be going live very soon at http://www.x0xclones.com where we will be providing information and reviews on clones and software emulations of the Roland SH-101, TB-303, TR-808 and TR-909.
In this video I demonstrate a some bot-generated patterns using each of the 7 "personalities". I then copy and paste one of the patterns into four pattern slots, and "mutate" the last pattern to create some variation before copying these 4 patterns into one pattern containing 64 steps. I then go back and repeat the process to give two 64 step patterns, each with the last 16 steps containing a different mutated pattern. I finally select the two 64 step patterns to continue to play one after another.
Here's the description of the 7 personality algorithms from the manual...
Presets 1 and 2 will produce 'fluid' styles as a lead instrument, usually with a 4/4 time signature (but not always!).
Presets 3 and 4 will produce 'glitched' styles as spontaneous riffs in a track, breaks or segue transitions as a band background instrument, generally in 4/4 or 2/4 time.
Presets 5 and 6 will produce 'triplet' styles for accompaniment or as the lead instrument, usually consisting of twelve triplet notes.
Preset 7 will produce 'chaotic' styles for creatively more complex patterns as the lead instrument. Patterns will primarily be quarter notes or triplets and the length of the patterns may vary from one to sixteen steps."
via the seller: "I tried out several very cool analogish sounds. It reminded me of a Roland Juno 60 meets an Arp Odyssey. I hope this rare limited production run of 250 Elevata goes to the right person, someone who knows what this baby can do and how it works."
I played a Darkstar and it did remind me a bit of a Juno-60, but a bit dry sounding if that makes any sense. Not so much an ARP Odyssey. The Elevata is a different synth though. I forget if the engine was based on the Darkstar or if it was a complete re-write like the Nord Lead 3 vs. the Nord Lead 1 and 2.
