1972 Interview with Stevie Wonder on Moog

Stevie Wonder back in 1972: "A lot of people don't consider the Moog an instrument, in a sense, and they feel it's gonna take a lot of work away from musicians and all that. But I feel it is an instrument and is a way to directly express what comes from your mind. It gives you so much of a sound in the broader sense. What you're actually doing with an oscillator is taking a sound and shaping it into whatever form you want. Maybe a year and a half ago I couldn't have done these kinds of tracks. I don't know. I think your surroundings and environment have a great deal to do with what come out of you, how you write. I wrote Evil, for instance, in the studios the day after Memorial Day – which is the same as your Remembrance Day – and did it straight away."

Read the full interview on The Gaurdian. Via Moog Music.

Yamaha CS40M Analogue Synthesizer SN 2553

The CS40M is a 4 oscillator duophonic analogue synthesizer with memories (20 of them).

The sound is big, warm and smooth - that great CS filter shines through - flexible enough to cover huge basses (2 additional subbass sinewaves in the VCA section), strong leads and weird percussive effects. This is due in no small part to the envelopes for both the VCA and Filter sections that are switchable between x5 and Normal for additional precision in shaping your sounds.

The CS40M has a super fast LFO with multiple waveforms, that can be changed independently at the destination (S&H at Filter, Pulse at OSC1, etc).

There's also a wonderful ring modulator and a 3rd envelope for routing to the oscillators and LFO.

Plus you have a nice set of performance controls to the left of the keyboard, including knobs and sliders that give you additional control over filter cutoff and envelope sustain..."

QuNexus with Korg Monotribe and Volca Keys Demo

Published on Nov 4, 2013 John Keston·26 videos

"A quick demonstration on how to use the QuNexus to play the Korg Monotribe. To duplicate this technique you will need to update the Monotribe to version 2.10 or later then connect a TRRS mini jack to the sync in port on the Monotribe. All the cables you need are in the QuNexus cable kit. I also synched-up the Volca Keys to add a simple chord progression.

See http://ausiocookbook.org/qunexus-mono... for more info."
