Teensy 3.1 based drum machine prototype

Teensy 3.1 based drum machine prototype from a guy called tom on Vimeo.

"A drum machine / step sequencer prototype based on the teensy 3.1 microcontroller development system. It is very basic and currently uses static samples. It's based on the teensy audio libary (http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_Audio.html). 74HC595 shiftregisters are used to control the LEDs and 74HC165 shiftregisters to access the switches."

SidTracker64 is the ultimate chiptune production package tool for the iPad. It emulates the SID sound chip from the dominating home computer of the 80s - The Commodore 64.

Get started immediately with the bundled songs and sounds in various styles, from old skool bleeps n blips to new school with multi speed and advanced table editing. Explore, remix and make new songs based on the old classics c64 game tracks “Commando” by Rob Hubbard or “Blood Money” by Fredrik Segerfalk, and the brand new youtube remix hit of the “True Survivor” Kung Fury soundtrack, all included in the app.

SidTracker64 is a retro-style music creation tool and synthesizer combined with modern features such as midi keyboard and controller input, Audiobus 2 and Inter App Audio for recording in your favourite DAW-app. Midi clock in lets you sync to other apps and hardware drum machines and synthesizers, such as the Elektron Analog Four.

SidTracker 64 can be used for live looping, making complete songs, and the minimum latency makes it suitable for live use. Export your music to Dropbox and e-mail as audio or .sid and even .prg files which you can run on a real Commodore 64.

Editing is based on hands on touch interaction or midi input instead of the hardcore style of direct data editing. Record live to a metronome or input notes step-style. Real SID-composing has never been simpler and more fun!

Artvera Drumatoxin and WS V8

Published on Jun 5, 2015 William Kalfelz

"Playing Artvera's Drumatoxin with the Legacy Presets made for Wusik Station previous versions in the latest V8.

Important: Drumatoxin is NOT part of Wusik Station V8 Bundle/Full version. You need to purchase from Artvera's site, using the link above.

The great thing about the new Wusik Station V8 Poly Wavesequencer is that sounds overlap now, instead of ping-ponging from one sound to another. This is great specially for drum sounds such as the Drumatoxin ones."

Dave Smith Instruments Prophet '08 Improvisation L (50)

Published on Jun 4, 2015 Sacred Synthesis

"Let me be the first to say that this improvisation is typical of the other pieces on this channel. It's only more of the same. But I wanted to demonstrate again the strengths of the Prophet '08 Keyboard.

This piece was played - except for the bass - entirely on ONE Prophet '08 Keyboard. In other words, it uses a split setting. The sound on the left hand is a pulse width modulation organ tone, and the sound on the right hand is a classic sawtooth lead. This is where the Prophet '08 excels - in making these standard, classic, traditional, old school analog sounds. And this is precisely why I like the instrument so much.

Another detail worth noting: this setting uses the Output B jacks on the back of the instrument. The organ sound is panned at the mixer to one side, and the sawtooth lead is panned to the other. This allowed for a stereo depth with a single instrument, and it also allowed me to process each sound differently. Reverb was added to both sounds, but delay was appropriately added only to the sawtooth lead.

Instrumentation:
DSI Prophet '08 Keyboard
DSI Evolver Desktop
Hammond XPK 200L

Reverb from Lexicon MX300
Delay from Alesis Nanoverb 2

Performed live and recorded directly to CD.
