PATCHMATCH™ // OB-6 vs. Prophet-6

Published on Dec 11, 2017 MR TUNA Music

"Join your friend Mr. Tuna in an exploration of sound, building and matching patches on two incredible synthesizers: The Dave Smith Prophet-6 and the Dave Smith/Tom Oberheim OB-6.

For this exercise, I am trying to recreate one of my favourite sounds on the OB, and in that sense the parameters and sound-sculpting lends a little more towards emphasizing the unique character and timbres of OB than the Prophet, but you might be surprised (or not surprised at all) at how truly similar the end up in the end!

Check it out, and bare with me- things may get a little shy of exciting."

"Kinetic sound object. The mechanism is a system consisting of two sound circuits and auxiliary mechanical and electronic elements. The first sound circuit is a speaker emitting square wave. This speaker forces copper balls, served one at a time or several at a time through a dispenser, to bounce up and down on its membrane. Depending on the amplitude and frequency of the sound of the speaker, the balls bounce at one of the same height or at another height. As they are confined in a pipe, they either fall back to the speaker, or jump out of it. If a ball jumps out, it ends up in one of seven collecting vessels and subsequently falls into the pipe. An optical sensor is installed in each of the seven pipes attached to the vessels, detecting the passage of the balls through this pipe. Subsequently, the ball ends up in the collector and may, as and when the balls are used, be returned to the mechanical dispenser through the use of a robotic 'hand'. Depending on the number of times that a ball ends up in a vessel (pipe) and a particular vessel (pipe), the algorithm of the generated sound changes in the second circuit, which executes the generative composition. The frequency of the sound in the primary circuit is also affected by the number of hits.

To all intents and purposes, the object represents a complicated feedback machine, where the feedback doesn't have a direct impact on itself, but uses kinetic and mechanical elements -intermediaries. These intermediaries are nothing other than the generators of random numbers inside a complex and harmonious system. This results in a constant change in the sound and the spectator’s observation of the system's attempts to retain balance and continue its work. To a certain extent, we may assert that the object is performing a routine ritual, infinitely repeating its actions in order to extend its life cycle."

Access Virus A in *Infected Space* Dark Ambient Exploration
2 nice examples of tweaking the presets (IQ-PAD RP & V-BRASS RP for example)
into something of your own. So easy to use, fun to tweak, and
the prices are GREAT 2nd hand. Be sure to test before you buy,
some outputs, knobs & buttons can be bad by now.
Still worth it even as a MIDI module controlled by another device.
Here I am controlling the VIRUS A from my Roland JX-305.
The two are excellent together!! Any good sequencer & VIRUS
will be a dream come true! (TI owners may disagree with me
due to some OS issues but I'm sure even then they still dig it!)
