Published on Oct 31, 2017 ROLI

"Watch our Halloween homage to John Carpenter, created using sounds from the sorcerer of the keyboard dark arts himself — prog rock legend Jordan Rudess! Jordan's new NOISE soundpack Wizardly Wayz is available to download in the Soundpack Store now, alongside a Floatation, a new collection of ambient sounds.

Jordan Rudess has amazed audiences as the synth-player for prog rock titans Dream Theater — and now he’s sharing his signature soundpack Wizardly Wayz, so everyone can capture a piece of the magic.

Featuring overdriven synths like Evil Pad, Wizardly Wayz packs a powerful hard-rock punch. But it also has enchanting orchestral effects, such as the strings of Mythic Key Layer and the flute-like Inventing Ether — perfect for adding dramatic flair to your creations.

Packed full of expansive synths that allow you to craft an intricate tapestry of sound, Floatation lets you produce lush atmospheres with warm, layered textures like Cassiopeia Ensemble. Or add spectral moodiness to your music using Darkvista.

Get your hands on both new soundpacks now in the NOISE Soundpack Store."

False Prophets - U-He Repro 5

"Here's my second, dirtier demo of U-He upcoming beauty of a synth. I tried to coax some rougher material with the aid of audio-rate modulation options and the very versatile FX section."

Sequential Prophet VS Vector Synthesizer (1986) 80s Stranger Things John Carpenter music style

Published on Oct 31, 2017 RetroSound

"(c) 2017 vintage synthesizer demo by RetroSound

all synthesizer sounds: Sequential Circuits Prophet VS Vector Synthesizer from the year 1986
drums: LinnDrum (1982)
recording: multi-tracking without midi
fx: delay

For the bassline I used here the internal arpeggiator. All played by hand.

For me is the VS one of the best synthesizers ever. Digital waveforms in combination with an analog filter is the perfect combination for fantastic hybrid sounds."

OBERHEIM MATRIX 12 CLASSIC, LEGENDARY MASSIVE ANALOG BEAST!

"You know what this is... This is the most advanced, most elegant sounding Oberheim of them all.. The Matrix 12. Essentially TWO Xpanders with a fantastic keybed and such an amazing piece of eye candy. She purrs... she growls and so much more. Once you play it, you'll instantly recognize all those instant classic 80s sounds. Not many synth freaks have one.. most have never played one. This synth is not for the faint of heart. It delivers in every way.

This is the better Made in USA version, not the overseas inferior version. It was fully overhauled by a veteran analog synth tech. Recapped, tuned, new bushings, new battery, calibrated and tested over and over again to ensure years of usage to come. It sounds amazing, and it works as it should.. NO operational errors here. Plus as you can see from the pics.. it looks fantastic as well.

NOTE>>> This has the 12 output panel installed on the right side. It was installed at Oberheim way back in the day but the original owner opted to not have internal circuits installed for the 12 outs.. not sure why. You still obviously get the Left, Right and Mono outs working and sounding GREAT!.."
