Morning Train - and some vintage ones.

"I made this recording back in the analog tape days with Technics and Yamaha organs and Roland CR-1000 drum machine and JX-8P synthesizer. The original was sung by Sheena Easton in the early 1980's.

The pictures are a result of a visit last summer at the Danish Railway Museum - although I find it a bit ironic that the conductor standing on the back platform of the old train is texting on a modern smartphone..."

A Patch A Day, No. 12

Published on May 20, 2013 hamiltonulmer·12 videos

Starts like a train whistle in the distances.

"Another drone-slanted patch. This time utilizing the µFade a little more clearly than yesterday's.

The core of the patch involves two dichotomies: the MMG having everything go through it, and resonances / overdriving the circuit in the usual way, and; the µFade managing two very different sounds.

I took three sine waves - two from the DPO and one from the Dixie II - to create a very simple triad. That went into one of the µFade channels. I also took the SUM of the Maths, which in this case has the pitched channels 1 and 4 outputting something delightful. I modulated the FALL of Ch. 1, which produces the lovely movement. That all gets fed into the MMG, which opens and closes very quickly, according to the Wogglebug CLOCK.

I also have the square out of the Dixie going into the RING MOD of the Wogglebug, which outputs the RING MOD to VCO B LIN of the DPO, which you hear when I turn those knobs. The VCO A LIN comes from the woggly oscillator on the Wogglebug. Really fun just plugging random signals into those LINs. Haven't regretted it yet.

I submix two quickly-oscillating Quadra channels, both of which have the decay modulated by the Wogglebug's stepped & woggly CV outs. That's what I'm doing when I turn up the lowest knob on the mixer.

At any rate, fun patch. The MMG sounds so wonderful when overloaded."

"Thats what we doe sometimes, but you can doe it also when your making music.
This piece of music is made off 3 seqeunces from 8 steps with the step sequencer of the Roland D2, First sequence starts at ± 3:00 with the Roland Juno 106, second row is the Moog LP bass at ± 3:50 and the third row at 4:25 is the Waldorf Micro Q. The intro is a long one (untill 3 minutes). Almost all synths are used.

Thx fore listening and commenting.

Greetings Hans 'Skoulaman'"
