OP-1, Oplab and TS-2, TS-3 and TS-4 Sensors

Published on Feb 2, 2014 djthomaswhite·89 videos

"This video provides a brief overview of the functionality of the Teenage Engineering Oplab, as well as direct examples of how it can be used with the TS Sensor series including the Flip, Poke and Tap Sensors. Flip is an accelerometer, Poke is a pressure sensor and Tap is a piezzo electric trigger creation device.

I show how to use Flip as a pitch modulation tool for synths, how to use Flip and Poke to trigger and change the pitch of synth notes, and finally how to use Tap to trigger both synth and drum sounds, with a section on using Flip and Tap to trigger and select sounds while playing.

These sensors are all currently available from Teenage Engineering as is the Oplab. The Oplab has far more uses thatn presented here. I hope to have more videos showing connecting external devices together with the OP-1 and to each other (sans OP-1) to demonstrate the broad scope of what it can do as a studio tool.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out another one of my videos. Thanks to Tobias at TE for getting me hyped up on how to use the sensor series!"

iPad Running Cassini and Sunrizer with the Bitstream 3X and MKS-80

Published on Nov 30, 2013

"In the video I have focused on illustrating how one might use two iPad synthesizer apps and a hardware synthesizer together including Cassini, Sunrizer, and the MKS-80. The BS3X is used as both the iPad interface and MKS-80 controller. No computer is required, but a simple change of cable allows for a computer to be integrated into this setup because the MOTU UltraLite interface and standalone mixer has MIDI I/O. In other words two MIDI interfaces are still necessary with a computer, but prior to this experiment I was only using the BS3X as a controller for the MKS-80 and bypassing the class compliant USB MIDI interface functionality. Since the USB hub was required I also added the QuNexus to the setup. This was dedicated to feeding notes into the arpeggiator in Cassini. The keyboard controller was split so that in the low end I could play the MKS-80 effect then tweak it with the BS3X knobs and sliders as it decayed. In the upper end of the same keyboard I played a lead sound programmed in Sunrizer.

KORG TRIDENT polyphonic and programmable synth SN 331121

via this auction

"The Trident is a polyphonic and programmable instrument with three independent sections - Synthesizer, Brass, and Strings, released in 1980.

It was last year technically tested by X-TENDED Berlin.

It features 8 voices of polyphony and two of the instrument sections can be played simultaneously while in Split Keyboard mode. Each section has its own unique VCO voice architecture, VCF (filter) types, and LFO capabilities. The Brass section's VCF and Envelope Generators are virtually the same as the Synthesizer section, allowing the Brass section to be used for generating additional synthy sounds as well as faux-brass sounds. The String section has some unique features as well such as a "Bowing" effect. Another unique effect included is a global flanger that can self-oscillate! Flanger controls include Speed, Feedback, Intensity and Manual.

The Trident featured 16 user memory patches. In addition there were three preset memory patches for Piano 1, Piano 2 and Clavi. No midi function!"
