Synthchaser #079 - Oberheim OB-8 Dead & Intermittent Key Repair

Published on Sep 11, 2017 Synth Chaser

"This OB-8 is for sale at:
http://www.synthchaser.com

Most OB-8's use a different style of keybed than found on other OB's. These keybeds often have problems with dead or intermittent key contacts. In this video I show you how to access the key contacts, and how to repair them for reliable long-term operation.

Parts for DIY repair and restoration of Oberheims are available at my website. I also repair and restore Oberheims and other vintage synths for customers around the world."

"The dreaded battery problem is non-existent here as this Polysix features a brand-new CPU board (+battery). All voices work, effects work, etc. 2-3 keys need a harder press sometimes but that seems to come with the territory with these old rubber-dome keys."

DreamsOfWires - Korg Arp Odyssey live improv w/ Arpeggist

Published on Sep 11, 2017 DreamsOfWires

"Just playing around with some old patterns from my other Arpeggist video - The Odyssey is receiving MIDI from Virsyn's Arpeggist and tweaked in realtime. The iPad is out of shot (on my lap!), but I'm triggering and transposing the two patterns manually, whilst recording the output into AUM. I've a habit of using a ton of reverb and syncopated delays, so I thought this time I'd just use a bit of reverb to allow people to hear the Odyssey more clearly.

I'm using an iConnectAUDIO4+ to handle audio and MIDI duties, and reverb is from Virsyn's AudioReverb.
Filmed with a LUMIX GX7 and an iPhone SE. I also added some of my gameplay footage from Half Life 2 as it seemed to fit the music better than the usual views out of train windows :P
