Hohner Basset a.k.a. Hohner Bass Video Demo

Published on Apr 19, 2013 TheLaboratoryofSound·1 video

"When this 50 year old baby arrived in my workshop [http://www.labofsound.com/en] it didn't make any sound. It had several problems, among which a blown transformer. I am very glad that I was able to revive this wonderful piece of history that is considered the first solid-state (transistorized) bass synth. Its sound palette is very simple but effective. When you play this baby even at reasonable levels, things will start to shake around you, the bass is that intense. Because there is little info on the web and in particular on Youtube I thought it would be nice to post a little video of me improvising on this little beast from the sixties. You will not be able to hear the sine bass on your laptop speakers, you'll need studio monitors to hear this low bass sound. Enjoy."

These come up on eBay now and then. There's actually one listed here. It's great to see video and hear what one actually sounds like.

This synth patch is inspired by Lord Vishnu's Sudarshana Chakra, a spinning disk
like weapon crafted by a piece of The Sun (Surya). This divine weapon is used
for the ultimate destruction of an enemy. The word Sudarshana is derived from
two Sanskrit words - Su (Sanskrit) meaning "divine" and Darshana (sanskrit)
meaning "vision". Hence, the word Sudarshana collectively means
"vision of which is auspicious".

Use this patch with your favorite Oscillators and effects. I used a combo of Anti & Uncle OSC, Piston Honda and a BLTZFM OSC. The effects were handled by the ZDSP w/ Reverb HP LP program."

NEXUS TEST (3)

Published on May 1, 2013 macbethsynthesizers·80 videos

"One or two folks had asked that I do a video of the NEXUS prototype again- more features now added include Octave Switch for all 4 Oscillators. For Oscillators 1 and 3- seperate Pulse Width Modulators have been added- separate mening independant of each other and of the on board LFO. Fatten your sound up with a full on 4 Oscillators! Also featured on this synthesizer are a Dual State Variable Filter, 4 Envelope Generators, Dual Noise Generators, Dual VCAs and Dual Tape Delay Simulator circuits! NEXUS is a true stereo analogue synthesizer with touch plate keyboard! In the hands of a real musician- this thing will work wonders!"
