TouchKeys: continuous expressive control for your keyboard


Published on Dec 8, 2016 Andrew McPherson

"TouchKeys is available to order at http://touchkeys.co.uk.

TouchKeys transforms the piano-style keyboard into an expressive multi-touch control surface. Sensors on the keys measure where you place your fingers, letting you control vibrato, pitch bends and other techniques naturally and intuitively. The sensor kit installs on any full-size keyboard, retaining the familiar keyboard action while expanding its creative possibilities."

"Audio is from Cameramic which records the sound of the Intellijel Boombox speakers.
Sequence by Qu-Bit Octone. Extra Sound Mutable Instruments Rings
Control by Sputnik keyboard.(Video consists of two different parts.Second part starts at 1:50)"

Great skiff case. BTW, anyone know who coined the name skiff for euro cases? The definition for skiff is: "a shallow, flat-bottomed open boat with sharp bow and square stern."

These are usually red. Not sure if this one is actually orange or if it's just the lighting in the shots making it look so.

Drumbrute on Gabber


Published on Dec 7, 2016 HardtekStudios

"For this video, I run the individual out of the 'Zap' drum into the Moog Freqbox for beefing the sound up into a pretty hard kick. All other drums are output via the mono main out. I have the filter engaged during the whole video to keep the top end from disappearing whenever it is turned on. This isn't an actual music track, it is more for demonstrating the Drumbrute."

'S Gone - CALC- Novation Circuit controlling 0-Coast, ARP 2600, Leploop and a ton of other stuff.


Published on Dec 7, 2016 -CALC-

"This is a bit of a monster set-up. Circuit is controlling everything and it's a huge chain of events.

The track found its way into two parts with a huge pallette of synths at the beginning and a Leploop psyche odyssey jam at the end. not without it's errors but it was a jam.

Gearwise:

Circuit's MIDI output is feeding a Hotchki55 Banana split 6 way MIDI thru.
That in turn is feeding MIDI to a Roland Juno106, Korg Poly61M, Make Noise 0-coast, Leploop… oh the lovely Leploop and (using the fantastic Hotchki55 CVOCD MIDI to CV converter) the Multi Cassa V2 is being triggered by Circuit’s Drum 3+4

A nice thing is using the 0-Coasts MIDI B CV and Gate output to control the ARP2600 from Circuit’s Synth (MIDI) 2 sequence. Having the ARP sequenced from Circuit is a massive joy!
Circuit’s synth 2 track is actually sequencing the Juno, Korg, ARP and its own Circuit sound towards the end.
Synth 1 is controlling the Leploop and 0-Coast sound arpeggiating notes from MIDI 1 but with a trigger from the CVOCD for a bit of rhythmic interest.

All the stuff is running through the strymon Big Skies and TimeLine and the Circuit takes a slightly dizzy spell through the amazing Rodec Restyler.

The Strymons really PSYCHE this out towards the end of the track.

Of course the is a heavy helping of Leploops Cassa and noisey hats throughout and the incredible new Multicassa V2 is just sublime. Especially triggering it from a sequencer… there is a lot more to come with this little wooden box.

So there is the set up… as I said it’s monster but everything used is totally being controlled by the two MIDI channels of Circuit, with some percussion and triggering added by Circuits sample drum tracks. The Leploop, 0-Coast and MultiCassa take their midiclock from Circuit too.

Just goes to show what you can do with two midi channels and 4 drum tracks and a midiclock output."

Make Noise STO demo


Published on Dec 7, 2016 Perfect Circuit Audio

"Double STO's going on in this video! The STO is Make Noise's classic VCO. It is similar to a single channel of the DPO, but with a few adjustments. It has three outputs, a dedicated Sine output, a square wave Suboctave output, and a waveshaped output, which morphs from a soft triangle to something in between a Triangle and Square wave."
