"State of the art" - on Elka X-30

Published on Mar 17, 2014 organfairy·414 videos

Interesting formant type sound at :59. Similar vibe to Gyote's Somebody That I Used to Know.

"'State of the Art' is a song by Australian singer-songwriter (I hate that expression - what's wrong with 'composer') Gotye. It is actually a homage to the Lowrey Cotillion D575 organ - though I don't really understand why they put a number after the name as I understand that this was the only Cotillion.

Anyway.

In the 1970's it was common that whenever there was a song on the charts then it was a matter of time before there was also an organ version of it. Therefore I have sort of completed the circle by making an organ version of a song about an organ. I don't have a Cotillion so I used my Elka X-30 which is from the same era and many of the presets sounds quite similar.

And if mr De Backer doesn't like my version he can consider it as revenge for 'Somebody that I used to know'!"

MESSE 2014 - MFB Tanzbar Analog Drum Machine

Published on Mar 17, 2014 sonicstate·779 videos

"This may have passed you by, but its a hell of a machine -808 style voicing but with 909 type snare and an additional 909 style kick plus stereo clap - its got a lot of variety - in addition to the regular a/b type TR sequencing, you have parameter lock for each step and voice making it a very powerful machine. Its around €300 more than an AIRA TR-8 and true analog."

NerdSynth DEMO 1

Published on Mar 16, 2014 firestARTerFHolle·8 videos

"First (bad audio quality) demo of the NerdSynth Digital Tracker Groovestation.
Check http://www.nerdsynth.com for informations

In the video you can see our proof of concept of a hardware sound-tracker-synthesizer. The first part shows the sequencer screen and then the patternscreen, where after some editing the audio starts. As audio engine (audio-hardware will be assignable) we use the code of the popular 8bit style synthesizer ATMegatron from Soulsby Synthesizers. http://www.soulsbysynths.com

The NerdSynth is in a very early development stage. So they are some glitches here and there. But in general, it shows what to expect in the future. We will add high quality audio very soon.

The NerdSynth is a project by Thomas Margolf and Jan Trompper. The ATMegatron is a Paul Soulsby product."

Volca Bass x3, Korg Monotribe x3 (Six Harmony)

"A Volca Keys and Beats for added good measure. Just having fun experimenting with sounds and video.
My old editor was being crappy out of the blue and not starting up(OpenShot), so I tried the other one I had loaded on my computer(Kdenlive, both free video editors on Linux).
It has some strange effects as you will see. Thanks for listening/watching.

Other fun stuff:
A new USB 2ch audio/midi in/out "thing" should be here soon, maybe it will allow some cool stuff to be done with midi and upgrade the sound a bit. We shall see. Also, I am setting up a 'Raspberry Pi' mini computer as a software synth/ digital effects processor. I'll post a little video of it at some point here."
