Only the Lonely Keyboard Tutorial Motels

"Couldn't find a tutorial or sheets anywhere so I was forced to do this classic entirely by ear so I hope I got it right. All sounds including the wannabe sax are stock Roland Fantom G sounds that I tweaked.

The original was purportedly recorded using a Prophet 5 and the sound is hard to reproduce on a rompler. The keyboard patch I made was based on a waveform called warm pad."

Moog Modular System 55

"A quick run on the 1974 Moog System 55 Modular Synthesizer property of Conservatorio S. Cecilia in Rome. The 960 sequencer drives 3 saw vcos (row a), the cutoff of lowpass filter (row b); row c is for seq clock modulation. Noise and a fourth square vco for accents and deep sounds. Audio straight from - far in the room - a couple of Genelec monitor. Hats of to Bob Moog."

Back From The MMTA Spring SYNTHFEST

And I am back... This year's SYNTHFEST was the best. More posts will follow, but now I need to catch up on the day's non-SYNTHFEST posts. Some of what you have to look forward to is the I Dream of Wires presentation with some insight on what to expect from the film aside from the interviews (you can thank me for asking - I think I got caught on film but I did try to hide to not ruin the experience for anyone). After that I captured a walkthrough of the event areas (camera induced nausea coming your way - it's always that way when you do a flyby of everything). I caught some of Craig Padilla's performance on video, Dave Bristow's talk on his time at Yamaha starting with the CS80 and on through the history of Yamaha FM synthesis and the launch of the DX7. Dave's talk was the absolute highlight for me. This is synth history in its essence. It's something you will not find anywhere else and it comes from the man that was there, working for Yamaha giving feedback on their designs prior to the public ever knowing a thing. There are tons of funny moments and interesting behind the scenes stories in this one. You do not want to miss it. After that I captured some of Computer Controlled's performance with a Cyclone Analogic TT-303 and Elektron Octatrack. The TT-303? It sounded amazing. I am sold. I ended with some time tweaking the John Bowen Solaris, specifically focusing on the rotars. As always these posts are not meant to be polished, they are meant to be raw and they are meant to bring you to the event. If you have ever been to one including NAMM you will understand. If you haven't been to one, you'll get a taste for what these events are like. This one was truly special. I can't wait for the next! Now back to regular programming. SYNTHFEST posts will follow soon after.

Published on Mar 16, 2013 matrixsynth·268 videos

Update: finally have a chance to add some more info. These are just two videos of Mark Mosher's performance set at the MMTA Spring SYNTHFEST 2013. I believe the whole performance was recorded so hopefully we'll get to see it soon. These videos are just to give you a taste of what it was like to be at the MMTA SYNTHFEST.

The main instruments or rather controllers featured were Percussa's AudioCubes, the Yamaha Tenori-On & a Moog Theremin in the second video courtesy of Lunchbox Audio
