Casio VA10 demo track

Published on Aug 13, 2014 ikworgek

"Track made with only the casio VA10 keyboard
all sounds and effects from the casio
No external effects used
no circuitbending

main features:

32 mid size keys
stereo (effects stereophonize the initially mono keyboard and microphone sounds)
2 cheap, hissy and bassless built-in speakers
uncomfortable headphone- style microphone
6 voice polyphony
100 preset sounds
12 preset rhythms (they contain no chords)
monophonic microphone input
59 built-in preset effect combinations, each consist of 1 or 2 combined basic effects
9 effect memory user presets
pseudo- vocoder (envelope follower)
"pitch sensor" sing- to- note converter which shall permit to play keyboard notes by singing, but it is almost unusable because it works only reliable within about 1 octave and otherwise randomly jumps to wrong octaves.(wich can be nice for experiments)
5 drum pads, switchable by 3 buttons to play 2 drum kit (A=normal, B= synth toms/sirens) or as effect intensity controls
record/ playback sequencer
"harmony arranger" (some kind of chord sequencer?)
The PCM sound generator corresponds to Casio SA series instruments. It synthesizes each preset sound by a combination of 2 mixed wavetable samples with different complex envelopes.
6 fusion/ synth pop demo tunes"

MFB Kraftzwerg MkII + Vermona Filter Lancet

Published on Aug 13, 2014 Seen From Space

"A more epic sound than I would normally use, but it's early days with these 2 boxes! A nice Berlin School bass sequence, as befits the German origin of both.

Pulse width and cutoff are modulated by the Kraftzwerg's LFOs. The Lancet is patched after the Kraftzwerg's VCF as a second filter, then back in to the VCA. The Lancet is in hi-pass mode with some resonance and an LFO sweep.

MIDI sequence in Logic. Backing track is some bespoke sounds in Omnisphere. Boss GT10 provides the pan, chorus, delay, reverb."

Toa Mata Band - Episode3 - Lego Synth Depeche Mode Cover - Everything Counts

"Everything Sounds" Published on Aug 11, 2014 Opificio Sonico

Follow-up to The Toa Mata Band - Tiny Robots Playing Tiny Synths

"Toa Mata Band is known as the World's first LEGO robotic band controlled by Arduino Uno which is hooked up to a MIDI sequencer. In this video, the third episode, the robots are playing some unconventional drum-percussions made by some food packaging are captured by a contact microphone (piezo) and processed in real time in the D.A.W. Ableton Live. A brand new device appears for the first time, it's a moving platform on x-axis, made of Lego bricks, gears and servo motors that permits to move with semitones-steps the tiny synth.

The song is a cover of the famous synth-pop band Depeche Mode, it's a personal tribute to the band who made my days in the 80's.

The performance was recorded live in July 2014.

This video is only a showcase of my works, it's not for commercial
use.
