Modular Live Patch #03 (Modular Pop w/ CR-78)
Modular Live Patch #03 (Modular Pop w/ CR-78) from BendingBus on Vimeo.
"Nerdy technical talk...
The basics of the patch use a MOTM-730 Pulse Divider to ping the modules rhythmically (the left/right tones, and the center melody which plays triplets). These pings are slaved to the rhythm sequencer's clock, which is loaded up with some CR-78 samples. I ended up using a digital sine (programmed in the sequencer) for the bass, normally I don't use digi, but it's good for a clean (no harmonics) sine.
The in-your-face filtering @ 0:10 is a MOTM-410 into a Moog Cluster Flux chorus for some stereo width, then into an API 550EQ + 2500 compressor for midrange glory. The melody @ 0:36 is a MacBeth MK-1 voice, featuring some stereo spring reverb compressed thru an LA2A for a nice warm ambiance. Around half way thru @ 2:23 I turn on a sizzly MacBeth pulse wave riff which is playing an arpeggio from the MOTM-650, compressed thru an 1176 for bite. Near the end @ 4:30 you can hear the background texture more clearly which is an arpeggio thru a Moog stereo 12-stage phaser in a bath of Harmonizer echoes.
Enjoy. You can download the full resolution studio master here... https://www.bendingbus.com/downloads"

Suzuki OM27 Omnichord w/ Case

via this auction
"The OM27 was released in 1981 and became an international overnight success as a truly portable electronic musical instrument. Released in three colours, brown, ivory and red (allegedly), the Omnichord has 27 chords grouped into three rows: major, minor and seventh. The ergonomics are much improved over the Tronichord/Portachord with the 27 tactile chord buttons located centrally.
The Sonic Strings are located just to the right and turned by 90 degrees. This made for a far more comfortable playing experience. The "Instant Off" touch pad is located at the top right hand side of the strumplate which silenced the Omnichord.
The built in speaker is located on the right of the Strumplate whilst the new control panel is on the left of the chord buttons. Like the Tronichord, only one sound is provided for the Stumplate (Harp) however, a new adjustable sustain means the instrument can be played percussively or like a stringed instrument.
The 6 new styles (rhythms) with automatic bass and chords completely opened up the Omnichord and gave Suzuki the much required extra features the Tronichord lacked and a complete marketing program was put into place that has lasted to the present day"

Rossum Electro-Music Control Forge new screen saver
Published on Jun 28, 2017 DJ Peeb
"So we have a nice little upgrade to the firmware which brings a couple of benefits, one being a screen saver to give the screen a longer life - I thought was a nice touch.
I also thought you might like to see what amazing concept they came up with for the screensaver and I provided an appropriately epic underscoring (sorry Dave - love you).
The update is also worth it for the new tempo sync option, have a look at the download tab on the following page - it's easy to complete the update:
