A little EMS VCS3 noise

Published on Apr 23, 2013 SynthDan1·3 videos

"Just unpacked the instrument and taking it for a quick spin. There's nothing quite like this thing. Its unbelievably trippy.

If it sounds a little like classic Doctor Who sound effects or crazy Pink Floyd synth effects, that's because this is the classic British synthesizer responsible for all those great works of art and many others. It's an incredibly bizarre instrument aimed not at melodic music-making but rather pure synthesis, pure synthy noise-making goodness."

"A self perpetuating generative patch on my Yusynth/Mfos home made Modular Synthesizer. The LFO is being used as clock for the sequencer and for the Sample and hold which is in turn modulating the LFO speed effectively creating a random clock. 4 oscillators modulated by the S&H, 2 of which are also being modulated by the 10 step sequencer. Moog filter on the left, Arp on the right, MFOS minisynth MKII in the middle. Original EH Memory Man analog delay and EH Holy Stain reverb."

"Novation BassStation Keyboard, a kick-ass modern analogue synthesizer covered in KNOBS with two octave keyboard. Monophonic with two oscillators, can produce tremendous bass or Moog-style analogue leads. 12/24dB filter can be smooth or can absolutely scream. Full MIDI implementation means you can control it fully with software, or use it as a controller for software or other synths. Super fun little synthesizer.

...has a chip out of one key (from a flying drumstick!) which doesn't affect playing at all; it is 100% working, no scratchy pots or jacks. Comes with power supply and user manual."
