Syn Sunday Preview Concert for Denver Open Doors with Mark Mosher and Kuxaan Sum

Published on Apr 28, 2017 Mark Mosher

"On Sunday, April 30th, 5 experimental music artists from Denver will perform Syn Sunday for the City of Denver's Open Doors event. We'll be playing outside under the glass of the MASSIVE Galleria dome at the Denver Performing Arts Complex. Early one morning last week, Kuxaan Sum joined me in a mini preview set for the CBS 4 news crew. After the news crew left, we played on and recorded this as we were so inspired by the massive space of glass, metal and concrete and the AMAZING reverb characteristics. This is a some footage of our mini set.

Come on Sunday to see the full concert with:

Dane Terry: noon - 12.25

Victoria Lundy: 12:30 - 12:55

Mark Mosher: 1:00 - 1:25

Chris Frain: 1:30 - 1:55

Kuxaan Sum: 2:00 - 2: 25

DSI PRO 2 PAD PATCH SOUND DESIGN TUTORIAL ~ Synthesize This! Ep.22

Published on Apr 28, 2017 once upon a synth

"How to make a pad patch from scratch on the Dave Smith Instruments Pro 2 synthesizer. The Pro 2 is a paraphonic synth so in order to play chords we need to sacrifice the oscillators. This means we are left with just one oscillator per "voice". In order to make the sound thicker and more interesting we will rely on various techniques and modulation options."

Blinksonic // VOZ° // Virtual Vocalist Generator For Reaktor 6

Published on Apr 26, 2017 BLINKSONIC°

via Blinksonic:

VOZ° is a new sampling concept based on vocal formants.
This ensemble for Reaktor 6 resynthesizes a real singer voice from a list of vocal articulation samples that can be sketched into multi layer singing parts and played chromatically trough a powerfull 4 voice sampler and a suit of 10 effects.

From mutant choirs, backing vocals, rising screams, funky hits, experimental sound fx, to playable vocal parts...
VOZ° explores various aspects on how vocal sound material can be operated in a virtual instrument and allows to inject a dose of human soul in modern electronic composition.


VOZ° comes with a collection of 1520 basic waveforms including elements of speaking, screaming, whispering, breathing, yelling, laughing, growling, throating... All kind of vowels, phonetics, accents and onomatopoeias… Even whole words and piece of phrases ready to be used as sources of oscillation that can be launched with in predefined random order.

With 100 presets ready to go, a smart modulation system, NKS compatible, and many other features, VOZ° promises noisy, punky and unconventional experiences, for both lyrical and epic sonic adventures.
Probably the vocal sound object, the wildest one of its kind actually.
