M3000 50th Anniversary Edition User Manual - work in progress

Published on Sep 9, 2013 Pi Synth·23 videos

"Finally, the book the world has been eagerly awaiting since 1st September - 'M3000 50th Anniversary, the Missing Manual' - should be ready before October 1st, available in all territories as a free download from the iBook store.

Once again, the best $10 ever spent is on show - both the 'Thirty Shades of Tron" theme and the Ode to (Mellotronic) Progress feature strongly in the first couple of pages before digging into all of the how-to stuff.

And yes, the start of the embedded video needs to be somewhat more punchy and less glacial. It is a work-in-progress after all."

Make Noise Shared System Release Featuring Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe

The third release in the Make Noise Records Shared System Series, Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe: Heptagramic Approximation & Alpha Crucis is now available.

"For this series we were given fairly strict parameters within a system coming from one designer with a heavy aesthetic. The challenge was to create two real time patch pieces recorded without multi tracking or any sort of outboard gear, effects, etc. Everything you will hear on these sides was done in a single pass without treatment of any kind outside of what was in the synthesizer. any delays or echoes you hear are generated by the machine..."

Groovesizer Alpha & Doepfer Dark Energy: random patterns

Published on Sep 8, 2013 MoShang·45 videos

"The Groovesizer (http://groovesizer.com) with Alpha firmware is a DIY 32-step sequencer and synth. In this video, it's controlling a Doepfer Dark Energy via MIDI. The video shows off the random pattern generation of the Groovesizer Alpha (major, minor, pentatonic, chromatic)."

"Ok, got the Duo Capture working properly, so with that I put together a random demo track with the MS-20 Mini and DR-55. I know I am off tempo and the drum machine is quiet, but hopefully you guys will enjoy it."

Minimoog, Memorymoog, LinnDrum 2

"Another, more "hypnotic" and laidback live jam on Minimoog, Memorymoog and Linndrum. My silly camera decided to stop recording the video after 10 seconds, so I placed a photo of the gear. Listen to this one in low lights ;-)"

V-Synth GT Goodbye #2

Published on Sep 8, 2013 synthway·18 videos

"As a part of my goodbye, I'm sharing this new video. Just showing how amazing this thing can sound when combined with samples from another keyboards. I'm showing the same sound made with two types of oscillators... the first is using internal "analog waves", the second is made with two Little Phatty samples (one for each oscillator). To me it's clear that it sounds better...

I don't know if you guys enjoy this, but since there's not a lot of videos with the GT, I'm trying to share what I can.

On the next video (already made) I'm going to share some weird FX sounds made with sampling and Variphrase."

Yamaha FS1R Legendary FM Rack Mount Synthesizer SN QN01010

via this auction

"The Yamaha FS1R is a rare bird. This is the successor to the old DX/TX FM synths. It uses 8 operators instead of 4 or 6 like those classics. Yet it can accept a DX7 patch via MIDI. It has Formant Shaping Synthesis to simulate vocal timbres. It sounds like nothing else, from huge evolving pads, to shimmering EPianos, fantastic organs, screaming leads and booming basses.

In 1998, after several years without producing a single FM synthesizer, Yamaha released a new FM powerhouse...the FS1R. These days, more people have discovered what this synth is capable of and it has seen a resurgence in popularity and has reached an almost cult-like status. It is rare to find one for sale these days. It was only produced for one year.

This little beast is far from your average FM synthesizer. Not only is it an eight-Operator variant, as opposed to the six- and four-Operator FM of the DX/TX lines, but it also features a new technology called Formant Shaping Synthesis. Formants are the spectral patterns making up the sounds of human speech. This allows for the creation of vocal like timbres but can also be applied in many different ways to create incredibly unique sounds that you won't find on any other synths.

DX7 aficionados will like the fact that the FS1R has almost complete compatibility with 6-Operator FM synths: you can send, via MIDI, a patch from a DX7, for example, and the FS1R will convert it to an identical-sounding patch in the new synth. A lot of the preset Voices actually come from the DX7's library. It's also possible to program sounds from DX7 sound charts, finding an algorithm that has an equivalent layout to the DX algorithm and turning off the unwanted Operators.

It truly sounds like nothing else out there. From huge evolving pads, to shimmering EPs, fantastic organs, screaming leads and booming basses.. this synth can sound industrial and cold one minute, and then warm and almost analogue the next. With some time dedicated to learning how to edit the patches, or create your own from scratch, there's really no sound that this synth isn't capable of making..."
