Into Modular #3 BEGINNING With an ANALOG Synthesizer - MFB Dominion 1


Published on Mar 16, 2018 Dave Mech

Starts at :55.

"In this episode I show you how starting out with analog synth with a patch bay can help to get you in the right direction of what kind of modular you want to build. I'm not going into too much detail, but instead show how you can get your feet wet with some basic patching. Enjoy :)"

Electromagnetic Radiation + Elektron Machinedrum Techno Session


Published on Mar 16, 2018 Dual Shaman

"With the aid of an Electromagnetic Radiation listening device, we were able to tap into the (normally unheard) sounds of electronic devices, in this case a kindle with a broken screen, an optical mouse, the tascam recorder which doubles as a preamp in this case, an old phone, a tablet device and Machinedrum's own screen.

The Machinedrum processes the incoming signal on two input machines, one for the 'synth' part and one for the hihat part, while also providing its own kick and a ram recording device set to create a small amount of palatable feedback.

We've created an entire sample pack exploring these obscure electromagnetic sonic realms, called 'ShamanStems - Interference'.

Elgam ES 2000 - Rare Synth Demo


Published on May 9, 2016 Synthetology

"This is probably the only demo about this synth.
Elgam was an Italian brand active during the Seventies. They mostly made electric organs. The ES 2000 is an exception, probably made just before the company closed (1982).

It is a very basic synth with one single oscillator capable of generating square/sawtooth waves. There are no controls for the oscillator because it is a preset synth with 15 different sounds (with funny names like Piano, Flute, Guitar, Oboe, Violin , etc...). The presets buttons modify the settings of the oscillator and maybe some EQ settings.

The player has access to the filter (non resonant): cutoff and envelope amount. There is one envelope (ADSR) for the filter and the volume. There is the portamento slider. There is the vibrato (LFO) with amplitude and rate sliders and one button to add some delay to the inset of the vibrato. That's all.

It isn't a synth with many features but it has a nice vintage sound.
In this video I played it dry or with some effects from my Novation X-Station (reverb, delay, chorus).
With one oscillator+chorus it is possible to obtain kind of a detuned fat sound."

The “C=MM² red” Commodore Music Maker Sexy Upgrade


Published on Mar 6, 2018 Perifractic's Retro Recipes

Note the above is a 2 part playlist. You can skip ahead using the player controls on bottom.

For those that want to build your own, you can find the parts list on Perifractic's Retro Recipes YouTube description here.

Part 1:
🕹 After seeing a beautiful piece of Akai kit called the “MPK mini red”, I realized I could recreate its look without taking up more space on my desk. And so v2 of the Commodore Music Maker (“CMM”) was born. I call it the “C=MM² red”, but you can just call it bloody sexy. Who needs E=MC² when you have C=MM². (Rhetorical question.)

Part 2:
Let’s finish my 'C=MM² red', record a new chiptune from it & make SID scream!
📀 OWN BOTH TRACKS NOW:
- All current and new Patreons (even at $1!) get access to their own shiny download link to own the full track PLUS a bonus polished ‘radio edit’ with sparkly percussion & echo added. So that’s 2 tracks for as little as 50¢ each.
- Better still as this video has no ads they also help support this retrochannel to hopefully keep bringing you content, so thank you!
- I’m very proud with how my original little SID song turned out! I hope it brings you joy.
